Abstract
A switching regulator electronic power supply for 115 volt A.C. operation rectifies and filters to provide approximately 170 volts of unregulated D.C. to the primary winding of a power conversion transformer. In series with the primary winding is a transistor power switch controlled by a pulse width modulator whose ON-time is determined by the rectified D.C. voltage level, and whose OFF-time is controlled by an output voltage sensor and a current limiter that provide duty cycles that assure a constant D.C. voltage level from the rectified and filtered output of the power supply.
