Abstract
A fast tracking power supply includes a combined controllable voltage source to control a load voltage. The combined controllable voltage source is connected to a tracking current source in parallel to provide a current for a load. The tracking current source is responsible for providing a low-frequency high current for the load to implement high-efficiency low-frequency tracking of the load current and reducing an output current of the combined controllable voltage source as much as possible. Meanwhile, a power supply voltage switching unit in the combined controllable voltage source adjusts a power supply voltage range of a linear amplifier in the combined controllable voltage source, so as to reduce the power supply voltage range of the linear amplifier, thereby reducing power consumption of the combined controllable voltage source.
