For more than eight decades, cascade voltage-doubler circuits are used as a method to
produce DC output voltage higher than the input voltage. In this paper, the topological
developments of cascade voltage-doublers are reviewed. A new circuit configuration for
cascade voltage-doubler is presented. This circuit can produce a higher value of the DC
output voltage and better output quality compared to the conventional cascade voltage-
doubler circuits, with the same number of stages.
