 Electrically controllable magnetron power supply - Patent 4672159
In a power-line-operated electronic inverter-type power supply for the magnetron in a microwave oven, the unfiltered pulsed DC output of a full-wave rectifier is applied to a bridge inverter, the output of which is a 30 kHz squarewave voltage pulse-amplitude-modulated at 120 Hz.
Hence, the instantaneous absolute magnitude of the direct current provided to the anode of the magnetron is proportional to that of the unfiltered low-magnitude DC voltage supplied to the inverter; which, in turn, implies that the instantaneous magnitude of the current drawn from the power line is proportional to that of the power line voltage.
However, during the brief period before the magnetron's cathode reaches a point of substantial thermionic emission, voltage limiting is provided by Varistor V. The voltage present across C and therefore across terminals CT1 and CT2, is provided to a voltage-doubling rectifier/filter means consisting of Ra, Rb, Ca and Cb.
