Abstract
Manipulation and regulation of power provided by a time-varying power source to continuously provide power to a load by insuring that any minimum voltage or current requirements of the load are met even when the power provided by the time-varying power source itself does not satisfy the load's minimum voltage or current requirements. For a load having a minimum voltage requirement, power from a time varying source will be boosted as necessary to insure that the minimum voltage is maintained.
