Abstract

Embodiments of the invention provide a power supply unit that operates in a standby mode and in a normal mode. The power supply unit comprises a first power supply providing output voltages during the standby mode and a second power supply providing output voltages during the normal mode. A pre-converter provides a stabilized supply voltage for the first and second power supply. The pre-converter operates as an up-converter during the normal operation mode and is switched off during the standby mode together with the second power supply.
