US Patent 12018422 Circuit for laundry treating appliance with high power drive

A circuit that increases input voltage to higher output voltage connected to a drive. The circuit can include a power input that receives the input voltage from a power source and at least one capacitor bank connected with the power input. A current-limiting surge suppressor is positioned between the power input and the at least one capacitor bank. The current-limiting surge suppressor includes a first current-limiting path and a second bypass path. A drain, when operable, dissipates the charge of the at least one capacitor bank. The drive is operable in response to the higher voltage output from the at least one capacitor bank.
