ABSTRACT:
A power supply for a node that transmits data onto a power line. A DC supply and capacitor supply power to the node where the output current of the DC supply may be less than required for transmission by the node. When the voltage on the capacitor drops to Vmin transmissions are stopped allowing the capacitor to recharge. A timing circuit is used to determine when to begin transmission to compensate for variables in the node such as line voltages and part tolerances.
