Can someone help me on how can I get the value of capacitor on voltage multiplier and how can i double the voltage through a 20 ohm load resistor?

A voltage drop occurs across a resistor. A current flows through the resistor. Ohms law says that the current flowing, i, will be equal to the voltage drop, v, divided by the resistance, r.Venus Marie said:Can someone help me on how can I get the value of capacitor on voltage multiplier and how can i double the voltage through a 20 ohm load resistor?
What is the output impedance of that signal generator? In real life, they are typically 50 Ohms. That would affect this circuit quite a bit...Venus Marie said:Here is the schematic we simulated,but we aren't sure on how we will calculate the capacitor value of the circuit. so we assume 10000uF capacitor View attachment 114757
Capacitance for voltage multiplier is a measurement of the ability of a capacitor to store electrical charge. In voltage multiplier circuits, multiple capacitors are connected in series to effectively increase the voltage output.
The higher the capacitance of the capacitors used in a voltage multiplier circuit, the higher the output voltage will be. This is because more charge is stored in the capacitors, resulting in a larger overall voltage output.
Voltage multiplier circuits using capacitance are often used in high-voltage power supplies, such as those used in X-ray machines or particle accelerators. They can also be used in electronic devices that require high voltage, such as cathode ray tubes.
Yes, the capacitance in a voltage multiplier circuit can be adjusted by changing the size of the capacitors used or by adding or removing capacitors in the circuit. This allows for flexibility in the output voltage of the circuit.
One potential drawback is that the capacitors used in a voltage multiplier circuit must be able to withstand high voltages, which can be expensive. Additionally, high-voltage circuits can be dangerous if not handled properly, so caution must be taken when working with voltage multiplier circuits.
