Abstract
An apparatus includes a voltage converter for supplying voltage to an electrical load. The voltage converter is electrically connected at an output to a terminal of a series circuit. The voltage converter includes mechanisms for connecting the electrical load and a current sink. The voltage supplied by the voltage converter is dependent on an input voltage and on a present multiplication factor. The apparatus also includes a first comparator, a second comparator, and selection logic.
