ABSTRACT:
A power supply (17) having a regulator featuring a series pass transistor (150) connected as a common collector amplifier is shown. The power supply is turned on and off by switching devices (11, 151, 160, 159) which control base current only to a transistor switch (155, 170) operating analog circuitry (157) which controls the pass transistor. Microcomputer control (181) of the power supply and self latching embodiments are also shown. The power supply shown herein can successfully regulate output voltages which differ from the raw DC input by no more than the saturation voltages of series pass transistor.
