Abstract

A power supply includes a rectifying circuit, a power converting circuit, and a snubber circuit. The rectifying circuit is configured to convert an ac input voltage to a first dc voltage. The power converting circuit is electrically coupled to the rectifying circuit at a node. The power converting circuit includes a switching element and is configured to convert the first dc voltage to a second dc voltage by selectively turning on or off the switching element. The snubber circuit is electrically coupled to the rectifying circuit and the power converting circuit at the node. When the first dc voltage is higher than a limiting level, the snubber circuit is configured to absorb the electricity power to prevent the voltage across the switching element from exceeding a safety upper limit.
