In many systems backup power is provided either by batteries or simply by a large value capacitor. Inthese applications the capacitor would only provide the current when the primary power source fails.Further these applications are usually for light load currents. During normal operation the backupcapacitors are kept charged up by a DC/DC converter. The challenge involved in an application
