Abstract: A reconfigurable multi-phase power converter is disclosed. An apparatus comprises a first primary power converter configured to generate a first regulated supply voltage to a first regulated supply voltage node and a second primary power converter configured to generate a second regulated supply voltage to a second regulated supply voltage node. The apparatus further includes N secondary power converters, wherein N is an integer value of one or more, and a multiplexer circuit configured to select the at least one of the N secondary power converters to provide an output current to one of the first or second regulated supply voltage nodes.
