A stabilized power supply which is particularly suitable for use at very high voltages derives its energy from a resonant inverter feeding a transformer and rectifier. The power supply is intended to be operated in a pulsed mode with the generation of each pulse reducing the output voltage below its required value. The output capacitive stages of the power supply are subsequently re-charged and an input switch is rendered non-conductive when the output voltage regains its required value. As it is not possible to switch off a resonant inverter during the course of a cycle, the energy obtained from the inverter during the remainder of the current cycle is fed into another capacitive stage. The second stage may also be utilized as an unregulated output rail of the power supply. The invention is particularly suitable for power travelling wave tube amplifiers.
