Abstract

A deliberately undersized power conditioner circuit for high peak power, low duty cycle equipment. The circuit may be connected with a thermal switch to shut off the power if the transformer gets too hot. The transformer has low impedance and by being undersized saves cost and improves power quality to sensitive electronic systems.
