  • HIGH VOLTAGE DC up to 2 KV from AC by USING CAPACITORS and DIODES in LADDER NETWORK Mr
    [Prasad * et al., 5(6): June, 2018] ISSN: 2349-5197 Impact Factor: 3.765 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF RESEARCH SCIENCE & MANAGEMENT HIGH VOLTAGE DC UP TO 2 KV FROM AC BY USING CAPACITORS AND DIODES IN LADDER NETWORK Mr. A. Raghavendra Prasad, Mr.K.Rajasekhara Reddy & Mr.M.Siva sankar Asst. Prof., Santhiram Engineering college, Nandyal Asst. Prof., Santhiram Engineering college, Nandyal Asst. Prof., Santhiram Engineering college, Nandyal DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.1291902 Abstract The aim of this project is designed to develop a high voltage DC around 2KV from a supply source of 230V AC using the capacitors and diodes in a ladder network based on voltage multiplier concept. The method for stepping up the voltage is commonly done by a step-up transformer. The output of the secondary of the step up transformer increases the voltage and decreases the current. The other method for stepping up the voltage is a voltage multiplier but from AC to DC. Voltage multipliers are primarily used to develop high voltages where low current is required. This project describes the concept to develop high voltage DC (even till 10KV output and beyond) from a single phase AC. For safety reasons our project restricts the multiplication factor to 8 such that the output would be within 2KV. This concept of generation is used in electronic appliances like the CRT’s, TV Picture tubes, oscilloscope and also used in industrial applications. The design of the circuit involves voltage multiplier, whose principle is to go on doubling the voltage for each stage. Thus, the output from an 8 stage voltage multiplier can generate up to 2KV.

Power management of IoT nodes represents a challenging task, especially when the output of the energy harvester is in the order of few hundreds of millivolts. In these applications, the power management section can be profitably implemented, exploiting CPs. Indeed, presently, many different CP topologies have been presented in literature. Finally, a data-driven comparison is also provided, allowing for quantitative insight into the state-of-the-art of integrated CPs. Keywords: charge pump (CP); Dickson charge pump; energy harvesting; IoT node; power management; switched-capacitors boost converter 1. Introduction The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm is expected to have a pervasive impact in the next years. The ubiquitous character of IoT nodes implies that they must be untethered and energy autonomous. In IoT nodes, power-autonomy is achieved by scavenging energy from the ambient using transducers, such as photovoltaic (PV) cells, thermoelectric generators (TEG), and vibration sensors [1–4].

A conventional symmetrical voltage multiplier (SVM) has much better performance, when compared with its half-wave counterpart. However, it requires a high-voltage transformer (HVT) with center-tapped secondary to perform its push pull kind of operation. The design of an HVT with center-tapped secondary is relatively complex. This paper proposes a hybrid SVM (HSVM) for dc high-voltage applications. The multiplier is formed by cascading a diode-bridge rectifier and an SVM with diode-bridge rectifier as the first stage of multiplier. The proposed topology saves two high-voltage capacitors and requires only one secondary winding of HVT. Besides, it has lesser voltage drop and faster transient response at start-up, when compared with conventional SVM. The feasibility of the proposed HSVM is validated both by simulation and experimental results of a laboratory scaled-down prototype. KEYWORDS: DC high voltage, hybrid, transient response, voltage drop, voltage multiplier.

An Altair Company Voltage Doubler Voltage doubler is the circuit where we get the twice of the input voltage, like if we supply 10v voltage, we will get 20 volt at the output. Generally transformers are there to step-up or step-down the voltage, but sometimes transformers are not feasible because of their size and cost. So here is the quick, easy and practical solution to double the voltage. • ACTIVATE solidThinking © 2017 solidThinking, Inc. Proprietary and Confidential. All rights reserved. An Altair Company Full Wave Voltage Doubler A Full wave voltage doubler is a voltage multiplier with a multiplication factor of two. A full wave voltage doubler is shown below. When the secondary voltage is positive, the first diode D is forward-biased and the primary capacitor C charges to approximately Vp. During the negative half- cycle, the secondary diode D is forward-biased and the secondary capacitor C charges to approximately Vp. The output voltage, 2Vp, is taken across the two capacitors in series. • ACTIVATE solidThinking © 2017 solidThinking, Inc. Proprietary and Confidential. All rights reserved.

  • High Power Density, High-Voltage Parallel Resonant Converter Using Parasitic Capacitance on the Secondary Side of a Transformer
    electronics Article High Power Density, High-Voltage Parallel Resonant Converter Using Parasitic Capacitance on the Secondary Side of a Transformer Jaean Kwon and Rae-Young Kim * Department of Electrical and Biomedical Engineering, Hanyang University, Seoul 04763, Korea; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-2-2220-2897 Abstract: High-voltage DC power supplies are used in several applications, including X-ray, plasma, electrostatic precipitator, and capacitor charging. However, such a high-voltage power supply has problems, such as a decrease in reliability, owing to an increase in output ripple voltage, and a decrease in power density, owing to an increase in volume. Therefore, this study proposes a method for improving the power density of a parallel resonant converter using the parasitic capacitor of the secondary side of the transformer. Due to the fact that high-voltage power supplies have many turns on the secondary side, a significant number of parasitic capacitors are generated. In addition, in the case of a parallel resonant converter, because the transformer and the primary resonant capacitor are connected in parallel, the parasitic capacitor component generated on the secondary side of the transformer can be equalized and used. A parallel cap-less resonant converter structure developed using the parasitic components of such transformers is proposed. Primary side and secondary side equivalent model analyses are conducted in order to derive new equations and gain waveforms. Citation: Kwon, J.; Kim, R.-Y. High Finally, the validity of the proposed structure is verified experimentally. Power Density, High-Voltage Parallel Resonant Converter Using Parasitic Keywords: Capacitance on the Secondary Side of cap-less parallel resonant converter; high power density; high-voltage power supply; a Transformer.

The proposed converter has high quadratic gain and utilizes only two inductors to achieve this gain. It has two switches that are operated simultaneously, making control of the converter easy. The proposed converter’s output voltage gain is higher than the conventional quadratic boost converter and other recently proposed high gain quadratic converters. A voltage multiplier circuit (VMC) is integrated with the proposed converter, which significantly increases the converter’s output voltage.
