A channelized uniform distribution power system controls individual channels of power converters with each channel of power converters having uniform output power as the channels are controlled by voltage control signals from respective controllers that are interconnected by a shared current signal and a shared voltage signal for controlling the channels to provide uniform power, with conventional current limiting and voltage regulation functions. Each channel may have a number of converters being parallel-input parallel-output connected converters, series input parallel-output connected converters, and parallel-input series output connected converters.
