Abstract

A constant power backup power supply for LED lighting fixtures is disclosed. The power supply includes a storage battery that is charged while an AC power source is in an ON condition. When AC power transitions to an OFF conditions, a capacitor bank charged by the battery supplies current to the primary side of a flyback converter operating in discontinuous conduction mode. The secondary side of the flyback converter supplies constant output power to the LED lighting fixture for an arbitrary output voltage within a predetermined range.
