Abstract:
The present invention is directed toward a switching power supply and improvements thereof. In accordance with an embodiment, a switching power supply is provided. The switching power supply comprises: a first power supply stage that forms an intermediate regulated voltage; and a second power supply stage configured to accept the intermediate regulated voltage and configured to form a regulated output voltage, wherein the intermediate voltage is set to an initial target level upon start-up of the power supply and wherein the intermediate regulated voltage is set to a second target level during steady-state operation of the power supply.

Claim (Index 20):
The switching power supply according to  claim 19 , wherein when the voltage approaches the threshold, charging of the capacitor is commenced to inhibit the voltage on the capacitor from reaching the threshold, thereby preventing the switching from being halted.
