N = 3 · Ten balls, two ripple valleys

Three identical 400 kHz VRM buck phases · ten independent native ngspice feedback trajectories

Balls 1–5 (valley A)Balls 6–10 (valley B)White rings: native sampled minima

Native switched ngspice, 12 V → nominal 1 V / 40 A; three equal natural 400 kHz clocks. Each controller sees only the common Vout waveform and its own oscillator/model. Ten different initial phases were chosen near the two sampled minima; feedback is NOT supplied either valley coordinate. Paths interpolate measured native gate-derived positions for display only. This demonstrates the tested starts, not universal convergence or hardware MCU autonomy.

Ten measured switching-cycle Vout RMS trajectories

Selected ball emphasized; all ten independent switched-SPICE histories remain available.
