Mini Projet On Voltage Multiplier: Guide: SMT.M.R.L Jyostna (Asst - Professor)

The document discusses a mini project on voltage multipliers. It introduces voltage multipliers and explains their working principle, charging capacitors on alternating half cycles to multiply the input voltage. It describes types of voltage multipliers including doublers, triplers and quadruplers. The advantages are low cost and producing high voltage from lower input voltage. Disadvantages include needing protection circuits and low current output. Applications include uses where high voltage is needed like CRTs, lasers, x-rays and insulation testing.

 Introduction.
 Working of voltage multiplier.
 Types of voltage multiplier.
 Advantages.
 Disadvantages.
 Applications.
 Conclusion.
Introduction:

The introduction of project contain the following


points have been discussed-
 Firstly we will study about the areas where this
project used.
The analysis of Grienacher’s voltage multiplier
circuit built in 1926 voltage tripler,voltage
quadrupler.
working of voltage Multiplier:
Voltage multiplier is modified capacitor that delivers a dc
voltage twice more times voltage of input voltage. Such as
power supplies are used high voltage and low current.
During the Negative half cycle of Ac input voltage,diode D1
being forward biased ( diode D2 does not conduct because it is
reverse-biased) and charge c1 to the peak value of input
voltage. On negative half cycle capacitor will be on charging
position it will discharge on positive half cycle.
During the positive half cycle of Ac input voltage,diode D2 being
forward biased (diode D1 does not conduct because it is
reverse-biased) and charge C2 to twice peak voltage 2vp of
input voltage.
Types of voltage doubler:

depending on the output voltage multiplier can be of


different method:
 voltage doubler
 voltage tripler
 voltage quadrupler
Voltage doublers:
The Voltage doubler arrangement of two
capacitors/diodes.

- half- cycle: C1 charge to Vp through D1,


+ half –cycle: C2 charge to 2Vp through C2,
 Output is across measured in C2.
Advantages:

Low cost.
Produce high voltage.
Voltage at output is twice as it is on input side.
 It acts as a rectifier ( converts Ac to Dc voltage)
Disadvantges:

Need protection circuit.


Low current.
Cost depends upon capacitor.
Applications:

 Voltage multiplier are used high voltage ,low current.


 Application accelerating purpose in cathode ray tube.
 generally these are used where both the supply voltage
and load are maintained constant.
 AC to DC application such as oven etc...
 voltage multiplier used in high energy physics is the cockcroft-
walton generators.
 It is used in low cost instrument.
 It is used for lasers,x- ray system.
 It is used for Insulation testing.
Conclusion:

Voltage doubler,as indicates it can be deliver the output


voltage.
which is doubles the input voltage.it is avoltage multiplier with
the voltage multiplication factor equal to 2.
