Regulated high efficiency, lightweight capacitor-diode multiplier DC to DC converter

摘要

There is disclosed a voltage multiplier having a capacitor- diode voltage multiplying network which is fed with voltage pulses from a d-c source through a first switching means. Pulses of a second polarity are also supplied through a second switching means to the input of the capacitor-diode voltage multiplier from a second d-c source whose voltage is adjustable to change the voltage of the pulses of second polarity. The switching means are alternately rendered conducting by signals from a control circuit. The second d-c source may be controlled by a voltage comparator which compares the output voltage of the capacitor-diode voltage multiplier to the reference source.
