Abstract
A low noise, multiple output power supply circuit featuring a plurality of efficient linear regulators comprises a transformer having a primary circuit with a primary transformer input winding and a plurality of secondary circuits. Each secondary circuit has a secondary transformer output winding having the same number of turns of secondary windings. A saturable reactor core is placed in series with at least one selected output winding of at least one selected secondary circuit to subtract a small amount of average voltage, volt-seconds, from the output voltage of the selected output winding to allow different rectified DC voltages to be obtained from different output windings which have the same number of turns.
