ABSTRACT:
An integrated circuit ground fault signal processor utilizes a power supply having a first, regulated, half-wave rectified supply voltage section and second DC supply voltage section. Operating current for a fault signal amplifier and charging current for a fault signal integrating capacitor are drawn from the second power supply section on a full-cycle basis. Operating current for a trip threshold detector or comparator and a high frequency oscillator circuit is drawn from the first power supply section for operation on an alternate half-cycle basis.
