A voltage-doubler rectifier includes an ac fullbridge diode rectifier and a dc-to-dc converter having two output boost circuits. One of the output boost circuits is coupled between the rectifier and a dc link, and the other output boost circuit is coupled, with opposite polarity, between the rectifier and the circuit common. Two series-connected filter capacitors are also coupled between the dc link and the circuit common. In a preferred embodiment, the two output boost circuits each comprise either a series, parallel, or combination series/parallel resonant circuit and a rectifier. A switch is coupled between the junction joining one pair of diodes of the rectifier and the junction joining the two filter capacitors. For a relatively high ac line voltage, the switch is open, and the circuit operates in a low boost mode. For a relatively low ac line voltage, the switch is closed, and the circuit operates in a high boost, or voltage-doubling, mode.
