Abstract

AC/DC power converter device comprising a full-wave rectifier (R) the output of which is applied to a direct current module which has two outputs: the main output is connected to the load via a capacitor (C1) which transfers a first power level (P1), and the auxiliary output is formed by a capacitor (C2) and a direct current converter (DC) which stores a second power (P2) and transfers it to the load during the full cycle of the input power wave (PE). As a result the second power level (P2) is continuously topping up the first power level (P1).
