According to one aspect, embodiments of the invention provide a power supply system comprising an input line configured to receive input AC power, a first capacitor coupled to the input line, a second capacitor, a controller, a rectifier having an input coupled to the first capacitor and an output coupled to the second capacitor, the second capacitor further coupled to the controller, and a switch selectively coupled across the first capacitor, and configured to selectively bypass the first capacitor, wherein the controller is configured to detect a voltage across the second capacitor, operate the switch to charge the second capacitor at a first rate if the voltage is above a predetermined threshold, and operate the switch to charge the second capacitor at a second rate if the voltage is below a predetermined threshold. |
