21Voltage multiplier — Villard cascade voltage multiplier. A voltage multiplier is an electrical circuit that converts AC electrical power from a lower voltage to a higher DC voltage, typically by means of a network of capacitors and diodes. Voltage multipliers can be… …
22Relaxation oscillator — A relaxation oscillator is an oscillator in which a capacitor is charged gradually and then discharged rapidly. It is usually implemented with a resistor or current source, a capacitor, and a threshold device such as a neon lamp, diac,… …
23EEStor — is a company based in Cedar Park, Texas, United States that has developed a type of capacitor for electricity storage, which EEStor calls Electrical Energy Storage Units (EESU). [http://www.lockheedmartin.com/news/press releases/2008/010908… …
