Abstract

See full text

A regulated DC power supply has a converter having a plurality of switches which, upon proper regulation of their conduction, rectify an AC current. The converter produces a current feedback signal. A reference generator produces a plurality of adjustable reference signals each representative of one value of a load current and produces a predetermined, standby, reference signal representative of a standby load current. One of the adjustable reference signals, the standby reference signal, and the current feedback signal are added to produce a control signal. The control signal is compared to a signal representative of the AC source voltage. Firing signals, used to regulate the conduction of the switches, are produced in response to the existence of a predetermined relationship therebetween. In the event that all of the adjustable reference signals have a value of zero for a predetermined period of time, the firing signals will be inhibited from regulating the conduction of the switches.
