Powering a microcontroller with a variable AC source

I have a possible future project idea and already have a challenge with it.

I want to power a microcontroller, 5V@2A DC, with a variable AC source. The AC source may vary from 1 to 50kHz, and 5V to 100V AC. Voltage is linear with frequency. The source may also vary on the fly.

What are some good strategies to regulate the power and keep it clean?

Hi,
Take a look at the PBZ Programmable Bipolar Power Supply from Kikusui, frequency response to 100kHz but limited to 40Volts.
See below Kikusui link for further details.

Doug,

Thanks for the reply.

This device looks close to what I want, but I need it to be portable. Nothing bigger than an average "smartphone" in size.

Let me know.
