1. A power supply system for an external defibrillator having a first power supply unit for delivering energy to a patient, and a second power supply unit to power non-energy delivery functions of the external defibrillator, the power supply system comprising:
- a first power supply connected to the external defibrillator, wherein the first power supply powers at least a main unit circuit of the external defibrillator to deliver energy to a patient during a first operating mode of the external defibrillator; and
a second power supply, wherein the second power supply powers at least one non-energy delivery circuit during an alternate operating mode, exclusive of a state of the first power supply.
