A low-power power supply for an electronic circuit uses an existing current input and converts the current to a higher voltage sufficient for supplying an electronic circuit. The input current generates a defined input voltage, which input voltage is initially generated by voltage drop by the input current passing at least one diode in the open direction of the diode. The input voltage, through a transistor, charges a plurality of switched capacitor networks in a first mode of operation, and in a second mode of operation, the switched capacitor networks are coupled in series for multiplying the input voltage to second higher voltage that is supplied to a oscillating circuit. The oscillating circuit drives the input current via a transformer and half bridge driver to convert a low voltage current supply from a low voltage current into a low current and higher voltage useable for supplying a small electronic circuit.
