This electronics video tutorial provides a basic introduction into voltage multipliers. It explains the operation of the half wave voltage doubler circuit. This circuit uses two diodes and two electrolytic capacitors to increase the voltage of an AC input signal by a factor of about 2. The output is a DC voltage.

One thing that might confuse viewers...the second stage serves to smooth the ripple and is not necessarily required, such as with microwave ovens. You double the voltage with one stage (c1 and d1). It's a point of confusion you did not address. Otherwise great video.

@NHL_B 2 года назад

it's a AC/DC converter, why would you remove the rectifier stage, it's actually what give us a DC output (R>>).

@KAFKUBA 2 года назад

@NHL_B 2 года назад

@@KAFKUBA you can still try to remove D2 and C2 and keep RL, what's gonna happen according to you ?

actually that 2nd stage is called a peak detector, rectifier is just the diode if we want to be accurate.

@manipulativer 4 года назад

Your tempo and the insertion of additional information is on point! Is there a way to use a jouel thief and instead of lighting a led light, it would charge a capacitor and depending on the inductive level you should - in my understanding - get around 100 volts out of an AA batery? I have almost zero experience into what i should be focused on, but perhaps you can take the challenge. At least an understanding of what is the most efficient potential riser... either with condensators with ac pumping, or dc to dc inductive pumpking. Perhaps its better to start with ac and multiply the voltage that way?

@tracelandreth8704 3 года назад

during the positive part of the cycle, why doesn't capacitor C1 discharge as current flows through it, through D2, and then charge C2? In the video you say that after the negative part of the cycle, C1 remains at 11.7 volts across it.

@Zapgod Год назад

How do you determine the neg and pos sides of the capacitors in a ckt? Is it determined by the diode?

@surendersingal2192 Год назад

Thank you sir for thru n thru explanation. It looks like C2 n Rl will make its own circuit @2V n RL. Where such ckt us used?😊

@johnwrightoverlandingrobotics Год назад

Voltage Doubler Ckt: 2(VAC * 1.414 - diode drop) = VDC Be careful not to confuse VAC with Vp as Vp = VAC * 1.414 Capacitors charge to Vp less and diodes they may have in series in voltage multipliers. So if you have 10VAC, you will see approximately 28VDC on the output. If we assume silicon diodes are used and use .6V as the nominal voltage drop for each: 2(10VAC * 1.414 - .6V) = 27.08VDC

@user-oq9jb8lm7x 4 года назад

wouldn't an increased frequency on the supply side also reduce the ripple effect on the output?

@jonelberdejo9446 Год назад

I'm confused what will happen if the ac starts with positive half cycle

@shubhamchourasiya4243 2 года назад

Why did we start the circuit analysis from negative half cycle?

@InfoDav 2 года назад

If the signal starts with the positive half-cycle, won't the capacitor C1 be charged in reverse polarity and therefore be damaged?

@MaximumUtmost Год назад

The current will inherently be higher while the applied voltage is higher, but the voltage will drop very quickly, and the resultant system energy will indeed remain the same.

@krisLight594 2 года назад

ok can you explain to me how much this have influence on watts? If i have for example transformer 400w 12volts 30amps can this circuit deliver 24volts on same amps 30amps its not the same watts anymore?

@annguyendang8388 3 года назад

Dear Sir, It seems that the DC output voltage = 2*Vp is not limited by the input power level, but in practical, the DC ouput value gets saturated as the input level is high enough. Can you or someone explain about this?

@harikan701 2 года назад

Then what happens to the first positive half cycle?since diode D1 conducts on negative half cycle

@InfoDav 2 года назад

Oh, maybe the load resistor will prevent C1 from charging enough in reverse polarity to be a problem?

@rottennewtonsapple 4 месяца назад

I thought that lower load resistance causes the capacitor to discharge faster, leading to smaller voltage drops and lower peak-to-peak ripple voltage?

How can the current drop by one half when the voltage doubles? Isn't that trade off for working with 1:2 ratio stepup transformers that involves electromagnetism?

@sydwelglobal1439 3 месяца назад

That has to do with the low of conservation of energy! Voltage and current are directly proportional to each other!

@clueless_andy 10 месяцев назад

@matheokoning4456 2 года назад

I don't understand how you can put a polarized capacitor in an ac circuit. C1 gets the ac signal and should explode anyway?

@jackwilliam2226 2 года назад

that's exactly my point too, but I have seen videos of electrolytic caps in voltage doublers, but how is this possible?

@crazylemons6197 Год назад

@clintcallender9502 Год назад

@allthings1337 3 года назад

Please tell me about the reason of changing polarity of AC ??

@joffito2495 3 года назад

it's about electron abundace. think of the ac source as pump. one half wave it pumps electrons into the circuit --> makes one terminal more negative than gnd. the other halfwave it sucks electrons out -> makes it more positive with reference to ground

@withIn40 4 года назад

excuse me sir, i want to ask. how many the capacitance of the capacitor??

@joffito2495 3 года назад

you can use 10 - 100 uF caps with appropriate voltage rating

@qzorn4440 2 месяца назад

Electron flow is less confusing.

@NHL_B 2 года назад

I have the impression that if we start with the positive half cycle it can't work as it is explained. So What happens to the first positive half cycle ? since diode D1 conducts on negative half cycle ??? In all videos I watched, we always start with AC's negative half cycle so C1 get charged on the right terminal and with the positive half we get Vin + Vc (C1 charged) so 2.Vin. But actually only with C1 and D1, if we start with the positive cycle, D1 is reverse biased so no current flows to C1 If I am right because it's like D1 acts like an open circuit. So it's like the behavior we are looking for only starts when we have the first negative cycle so C1 get charged etc...

@jackwilliam2226 2 года назад

throw in electrolytic caps as they use in real life and it gets even more confusing...

@emmetray9703 3 года назад

but in the negative half cycle , current can go trough D1, then trough D3 and carge C2 ? why not? Please someone answer me.

@bixenbaer 3 года назад

Current always chooses the path of least resistance back to the source. Why bother going an extra way through D2 when home sweet home is near behind C1 ;)

@emmetray9703 3 года назад

@@bixenbaer Thanks

@enzofitzhume7320 3 года назад

Something is not right with explanation about C2. As long as the capacitor is rated at the input voltage (AC). Then it doesn't need to be rated at the voltage after D2. Search for Cockcroft-Walton and also Cockcroft-Walton.

@Bulent-Keskin 2 года назад

Thank you for your great videos but why are you repeating the fact that electrons move in the reverse direction of the conventional current in almost all of your videos? :) Anyway, I just hit the right key to skip that 5-seconds part. :)

@michaelcostello6991 3 года назад

We get DC across RL . I just find it confusing as the AC supply is connected directly to RL so you would think RL would have an alternating voltage +- on its lower leg. Can anyone explain. Thanks.

@joffito2495 3 года назад

the diodes of course rectify the ac to dc (walf wave recitification here)
