Abstract

A power supply includes an alternating current input, a rectifier operable to generate a rectified signal based on the alternating current input, a voltage multiplier configured to generate a multiplied voltage based on the alternating current input, and an output configured to yield an electrical current based on the rectified signal from the rectifier and on the multiplied voltage from the voltage multiplier. Current is drawn from the alternating current input only during a fraction of each half-cycle of a waveform at the alternating current input.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A power supply, comprising:
 an alternating current input;   a rectifier configured to generate a rectified signal based on the alternating current input;   a voltage multiplier configured to generate a multiplied voltage based on the alternating current input; and   an output configured to yield an electrical current based on the rectified signal from the rectifier and on the multiplied voltage from the voltage multiplier, wherein current is drawn from the alternating current input only during a fraction of each half-cycle of a waveform at the alternating current input.
