Voltage Doubler Circuit Output Waveform. A voltage doubler circuit is a circuit in which the output voltage is double the amplitude of the input voltage. The input waveform of full wave voltage doubler can be seen in the following figure.
The diagram and output waveform is demonstrated in figure 3. This voltage doubling effect is achieved through the use of capacitors. We use individuals capacitors to charge up to the input voltage.
This voltage doubling effect is achieved through the use of capacitors.
The first capacitor charges up to the input voltage of the circuit. A voltage doubler is an electronic circuit which charges capacitors from the input voltage and switches these charges in such a way that in the ideal case exactly twice the voltage is produced at the output as at its input. Here during the positive cycle of input voltage the diode d1 becomes forward biased and capacitor c1 becomes charged to vsmax peak voltage. This voltage doubling effect is achieved through the use of capacitors.
