Abstract
On the basis of a conventional Cockcroft-Walton (C-W) cascade rectifyi ng circuit, an expression is derived for the fundamental harmonic of r ipples due to asymmetry of driving voltage in a symmetrical C-W circui t. The expression is validated from good agreement with experimental r esults of both a low-voltage model circuit and a high-voltage circuit used in an ultrahigh-voltage electron microscope.
