Voltage Multiplier with Diodes and Capacitors

This is a voltage multiplier circuit. This circuit uses a doubler principle to multiply the voltage.  This circuit has some advantages like low current supply, attractive high voltage that is needed for photomultipliers and cathode-ray tubes. Besides that, this circuit is inexpensive. This principle is also used in the Cockroft-Walton accelerator for charged particles the Cockroft-Walton accelerator for charged particles […]
