A voltage multiplier circuit is used to generate a high voltage DC output from a lower voltage AC or DC input. It typically consists of diodes and capacitors arranged in a ladder-like configuration. When the input voltage alternates, the diodes conduct current in one direction, allowing the capacitors to charge. The capacitors then discharge through the load during the other half of the cycle, effectively doubling, tripling, or quadrupling the input voltage depending on the number of stages in the multiplier circuit. This process is repeated across multiple stages to achieve the desired output voltage_
