The Establishment and Analysis of Bidirectional Cockcroft-Walton Circuit Model

Abstract:

High voltage DC power supply is very important in laser and high precision instruments, so the stability of high voltage DC power supply has an affect on the stability of laser and equipment. The voltage doubling rectifier circuit is the core component of the high voltage generator, so it is very important to study the stability of the voltage doubling rectifier circuit. Through the study of bidirectional rectifier circuit, double voltage rectifier circuit produces an output ripple and response time is superior than the basic voltage rectifier circuit. At the same time to study the bidirectional rectifier circuit is optimized, the capacity of the output arm greatly increases which leads to reduction in the output ripple, as the capacity reaches large enough value the output ripple approaches zero. Thus, greatly increasing the circuit in steady state time.
