    Abstract: A power supply circuit in an inverter for driving an electrical machine includes a high-voltage branch with a high-voltage level, a low-voltage branch with a low-voltage level and a discharge branch with a discharge voltage level, wherein the high-voltage level is higher than the low-voltage level and the discharge voltage level. The high-voltage branch can be connected to the low-voltage branch via an operating DC/DC converter, and to the discharge branch via a discharge DC/DC converter. The discharge branch is different from the low-voltage branch. A low-voltage energy storage device is connected in the discharge branch. A method for using the power supply circuit includes, in a first operating mode, conducting current from the high-voltage branch via the operating DC/DC converter into the low-voltage branch, and in a second operating mode, conducting current from the high-voltage branch via the discharge DC/DC converter into the discharging branch.
