APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SHAPING AN INPUT SIGNAL TO EFFECT A DESIRED OUTPUT SIGNAL
First Claim
1. An apparatus for shaping a varying input voltage signal received at an input locus to effect a desired varying output voltage signal at an output locus;
- the apparatus comprising;
(a) at least one energy transferring unit coupled with said input locus and with said output locus; and
(b) at least one energy storing unit coupled with said at least one energy transferring unit;
said at least one energy transferring unit presenting at least one predetermined range of said input voltage signal at said output locus;
said at least one energy transferring unit cooperating with said at least one energy storing unit to store energy in said at least one energy storing unit and to present energy from said at least one energy storing unit at said output locus when said input voltage signal is not presented at said output locus.

Abstract
An apparatus for shaping a varying input voltage signal received at an input locus to effect a desired varying output voltage signal at an output locus includes: (a) at least one energy transferring unit coupled with the input locus and with the output locus; and (b) at least one energy storing unit coupled with the at least one energy transferring unit. The at least one energy transferring unit presents at least one predetermined range of the input voltage signal at the output locus. The at least one energy transferring unit cooperates with the at least one energy storing unit to store energy in the at least one energy storing unit and to present energy from the at least one energy storing unit at the output locus when the input voltage signal is not presented at the output locus.
