ABSTRACT:
A modular power supply and a method of operating the same to accept either AC or DC input power. In one embodiment, the modular power supply includes an input module that accepts input power and employs at least one main power switch and a step-up transformer to provide intermediate power at an enhanced voltage at an output thereof. The modular power supply also includes a power transfer conductor coupled to the output. The modular power supply further includes an output module, having an input coupled to the conductor, that accepts the intermediate power and employs a step-down transformer and an output rectifier to provide DC output power at a voltage that is less than the enhanced voltage. The modular power supply still further includes a diode, coupled to the input and output modules, that prevents the step-up and step-down transformers from saturating.
