ABSTRACT:
A d.c. power supply for use in microwave ovens in which an a.c. voltage having a commercial frequency is rectified and then is chopped at a high frequency by means of a switching element. The resultant voltage is smoothed before being applied to the microwave oven. The voltage level of the commercial frequency voltage is sensed to produce a control pulse the duty ratio of which becomes greater as the voltage level becomes lower. The control pulse is used to control the ON-OFF operation of the switching element. By this circuit configuration, the microwave oven is supplied with a continuously-controllable d.c. voltage having a flat waveform.
