Study Notes
Voltage Multipliers
- Multiply input voltage to achieve a higher output voltage using capacitors and diodes.
- Commonly used in applications like CRT displays, photomultiplier tubes, and various electronic circuits needing high voltage.
Voltage Tripler
- Output voltage is taken across the load, typically after the additional diode-capacitor section.
- The function of the extra diode-capacitor section is to further increase the output voltage beyond the initial doubled value.
Half-Wave Voltage Doubler
- During the positive half-cycle, the input voltage is applied, causing capacitor C1 to charge to the peak voltage.
- Capacitor C1 stores energy from the positive half-cycle, increasing the voltage output.
- During the negative half-cycle, the diode blocks current, allowing C1 to discharge through the output load, maintaining the voltage.
Capacitor C1
- In a half-wave voltage doubler, C1 charges to the peak voltage of the secondary voltage during the positive half-cycle.
Statistical Experiment Outcomes
- The set of all possible outcomes of a statistical experiment is termed the sample space.
- A finite sample space is described using a list or enumeration of outcomes.
Sample Space Representation
- Denoted by the symbol Ω (omega).
- Each outcome in a sample space is called an element or point.
- For infinite sample spaces, the set is usually described through interval notation or mathematical rules.
Summary of Describing Sample Space
- Finite sample spaces: outcomes are listed explicitly.
- Infinite sample spaces: outcomes are described by statements or probability distributions.
