Abstract
A power supply generates power factor corrected power from AC power having one or more phases and different levels of output voltages. The power supply includes a power factor correction circuit that charges a capacitor through at least one inductor. Each inductor of the at least one inductor is independently connected to the capacitor to charge the capacitor with rectified power.
