1. A power supply unit comprising:
- a switching power regulator including;
an inductor coupled to an output;
a capacitor coupled to the inductor;
a switch, coupled to the inductor, for regulating power supplied by the power supply unit in response to a duty cycle; and
a control circuit, coupled to the switch, for supplying current to the inductor while the switch is closed and charging the capacitor while the switch is open.

Abstract
An information handling system (“IHS”) includes a system board and a power supply unit coupled to the system board. The power supply unit includes a switching power regulator. The switching power regulator includes an inductor coupled to an output, a capacitor coupled to the inductor, a switch, coupled to the inductor, for regulating power supplied by the power supply unit in response to a duty cycle, and a control circuit, coupled to the switch, for supplying current to the inductor while the switch is closed and charging the capacitor while the switch is open.
