Slewing power supply for programmable phase shifter drive

A slewing power supply, for use with a system controller which outputs voltage command signals which dynamically directs said slewing power supply to produce a responsive slewed output voltage to drive an inductive load, said slewing power supply comprising:

• a Milberger converter which produces a combined square wave output signal composed of a positive voltage signal component and a negative voltage signal component;
• a power source which outputs a reference voltage signal which is a floating base voltage, said power source also receiving said combined square wave output signal from said Milberger converter and separately outputting said positive voltage signal component and said negative voltage signal component;
• and
• a means for regulating signals produced by said power source in accordance with said voltage command signals produced by said system controller, said regulating means being electrically connected with said power source and said system controller and outputting to said inductive load said responsive slewed output voltage in a form which comprises a first and second complementary voltage signal, said first complementary voltage signal being produced by respectively measuring said positive voltage signal component and said negative voltage signal component with said reference voltage signal to produce a measured positive voltage signal and a measured negative voltage signal, said regulating means then outputting said first and second complementary voltage signals by respectively comparing said measured positive voltage signal and said measured negative voltage signal with a rectified version of said voltage command signals, said regulating means producing said rectified version of said voltage command signals by rectifying said voltage command signals.
