ABSTRACT:
Described is a novel power supply for generating a constant d.c. voltage from a variable a.c. voltage supply line. The power supply includes a plurality of switch circuits which monitor voltage levels on respective secondary windings of a power transformer and as voltage levels change, one of the plurality of switch circuits is selected to charge a capacitor which provides a range of d.c. voltages which are processed to provide the constant d.c. voltage.
