| Keywords: Cockcroft Walton voltage multiplier circuit.svg Cockcroft-Walton voltage multiplier circuit also called the Greinacher multiplier When an alternating voltage is applied it produces a DC output voltage equal to V<sub>o</sub> 2NV<sub>p</sub> NV<sub>pp</sub> where V<sub>pp</sub> is the peak-to-peak input voltage and N is the number of stages This diagram shows a 2 stage circuit with output V<sub>o</sub> 4V<sub>ip</sub> It was invented in 1932 by physicists John Douglas Cockcroft and Ernest Thomas Sinton Walton The Cockcroft-Walton circuit is widely used to produce high voltages in CRT television set anode supplies photomultiplier tube power supplies copiers laser printers electrostatic precipitators and Cockcroft-Walton particle accelerators 2015-04-12 own Chetvorno other versions cc-zero Uploaded with UploadWizard Cockcroft-Walton generators | ||||
