Abstract
A circuit arrangement for generating a direct voltage from a sinusoidal input voltage. A capacitor (2) is coupled to an output terminal (3) of a rectifier (1) which receiver the input voltage and is discharged via a first diode arrangement (5) and a load (10) which is connected to the output of the rectifier (1). A series circuit is connected in parallel with the first diode arrangement (5) and comprises a second diode arrangement (4), via which only the chage current of the capacitor (2) flows, and at least a parallel arrangement of a control circuit (9) and a smoothing capacitor (7).
