1. An Alternating Current Line Filter/Rectifier Module (ACLF/RM) comprising:
a first Direct Current (DC) output module terminal; a second DC output module terminal; a first NPN bipolar transistor having a base, collector, and emitter; a first diode having a cathode coupled to the emitter of the first NPN bipolar transistor and having an anode coupled to the collector of the first NPN bipolar transistor; a second NPN bipolar transistor having a base, collector and emitter, wherein the emitter of the second NPN bipolar transistor is coupled to the emitter of the first NPN bipolar transistor; a second diode having a cathode coupled to the emitter of the second NPN bipolar transistor and having an anode coupled to the collector of the second NPN bipolar transistor; a third NPN bipolar transistor having a base, collector, and emitter, wherein the emitter of the third NPN bipolar transistor is coupled to the collector of the first NPN bipolar transistor; a third diode having a cathode coupled to the emitter of the third NPN bipolar transistor and having an anode coupled to the collector of the third NPN bipolar transistor; a fourth NPN bipolar transistor having a base, collector, and emitter, wherein the collector of the fourth NPN bipolar transistor is coupled to the collector of the third NPN bipolar transistor, wherein the emitter of the fourth NPN bipolar transistor is coupled to the collector of the second NPN bipolar transistor; a fourth diode having a cathode coupled to the emitter of the fourth NPN bipolar transistor and having an anode coupled to the collector of the fourth NPN bipolar transistor; a first Alternating Current (AC) input module terminal; a second AC input module terminal, wherein the first and second AC input module terminals are adapted to receive an AC input voltage signal onto the ACLF/RM such that a rectified version of the AC input voltage signal is output by the ACLF/RM across the first and second DC output module terminals. |
