Abstract The switching power supply has sinusoidal or constant input current. The latter one results in best possible line and component utilizations at any time. The switching power supply comprises a first capacitor for storing a base voltage and second capacitor for storing output voltage. A first inductor is coupled between a first terminal and ground. A second inductor is coupled between a second and third terminals. A first switch selectively applies input voltage to the second terminal. A second switch selectively applies the base voltage to the third terminal. A first and second diodes are coupled to the first terminal and further respectively to the second terminal and first capacitor. A third and fourth diodes are coupled to the second capacitor and ground respectively. The third and fourth diodes are further separately coupled to the second and third terminals in either order.
Switching power supply converting input voltage into output voltage, comprising: a first capacitive means coupled to ground for storing a base voltage; a second capacitive means coupled to ground for storing the output voltage; a first inductive means having a first terminal and coupled to ground for attaining a first current; a second inductive means having a second and third terminals for attaining a second current; a first switching means for selectively applying the input voltage to the second terminal; a second switching means for selectively applying the base voltage to the third terminal; a first diode means coupled to the first terminal for applying the first current to the second terminal; a second diode means coupled to the first terminal for applying the first current to the first capacitive means; a third diode means coupled to the second capacitive means for applying the second current thereto; and a fourth diode means coupled to ground for applying the second current thereto, wherein the third and fourth diode means are further separately coupled to the second and third terminals in either order.
