Abstract

A switching mode power supply characterized by an output in the forward conversion mode and a separate output in the flyback mode whereby a device having variable power requirements in one aspect of its operation, and a stable power requirement another aspect of its operation may be powered without interference as between the two sources of power. The flyback power output is monitored for voltage regulation, regulation being achieved by a constant-off-time variable-on-time switch. The power supply likewise includes novel protective circuitry to shut it down in the event of excessive voltage or current therein.
