Claim 8:
9. A distributed motor drive, comprising:
a DC bus input configured to selectively receive a DC bus voltage and a DC control voltage;
an inverter section electrically connected to the DC bus input to receive the DC bus voltage and to provide an AC voltage;
a power supply electrically connected to the DC bus input, wherein the power supply is operative to selectively receive the DC bus voltage and the DC control voltage and to generate at least one motor drive control voltage as an output from the DC bus voltage and from the DC control voltage according to which is received by the power supply; and
a control circuit configured to receive the at least one motor drive control voltage to enable operation of the control circuit.
