Abstract
A power supply comprises a DC power source, first and second DC/DC converters, and a protection circuit. The DC power source provides DC power at a variable bulk voltage. The first DC/DC converter converts the DC power from the DC power source to DC power at a high voltage suitable for powering a high-voltage load. The second DC/DC converter receives DC power from the first DC/DC converter, converts the received DC power to DC power at a low voltage, and delivers the DC power at the low voltage to a low-voltage load. The protection circuit selectively transfers DC power from the first DC/DC converter to the high-voltage load. The DC power source may be an AC/DC converter receiving AC power from a power generator driven by an aircraft engine.
