A power supply including an inverter receiving a DC input signal from a DC
input source (11). The inverter is implemented as a single-ended
inverter. Each inverter is driven by a signal source (13A, 13B), which
outputs an AC signal. The output from each inverter is input to a first
stage harmonic filter. The power supply includes an output circuit that
includes a rectifier (D1) arranged about a point so that if the inverter
attempts to drive the point beyond a predetermined voltage, the rectifier
conducts in order to return at least one of power and current to the DC
input source. The output from the first harmonic filter (L1A, C1; L1B,
C1) is output to a second harmonic filter (L2, C2) and is then output
from the power supply.
