  • Non-volatile power supply having energy efficient DC/DC voltage converters with a small storage capacitor
    Patent number: 5691629
    Abstract: A step-up DC/DC voltage convertor is coupled to a step-down DC/DC voltage convertor via a capacitor, which stores energy and maintains power flow to an output load circuit during a brief interruption of power supplied to the input of the step-up convertor. A diode connected to the capacitor prevents energy stored within the capacitor to be fed back to the step-up voltage convertor during the power interruption.
