| Abstract: | Technologies pertaining to a power supply that includes a nonlinear
transmission line are described herein. In an embodiment, a DC power
supply comprises a pulsing circuit that receives a DC input and outputs a
first plurality of pulses having a first frequency to a nonlinear
transmission line. The nonlinear transmission line receives the first
plurality of pulses and outputs a second plurality of pulses having a
second frequency that is greater than the first frequency. The second
plurality of pulses is then received at an amplifier/rectifier circuit
that amplifies the second pulses to increase a voltage amplitude of the
pulses, and rectifies the pulses to provide a substantially constant DC
output. |
