It is sometimes necessary for a microcontroller to generate a pulse whose voltage is higher than the power-supply voltage of the microcontroller. The circuit in Figure 1 allows you to generate 14V ...

A design of voltage doubler circuit has been studied in context of electromagnetic energy harvesting using 28 nm FD-SOI technology. After analysis of the operating constraints of the circuit, the ...

This charge-pump circuit, using just a few diodes and capacitors, ups the input voltage by a factor of 1.5 in contrast to the usual voltage-doubling output. Micropower product designs sometimes ...

While most readers are knowledgeable about voltage doublers, here is a discussion about how to use them in unusual ways to enhance power supply circuits that might be otherwise limited in features.
