VOLTAGE DOUBLER THEORY OF OPERATION

1. The high-voltage transformer steps up the input
voltage to approximately 2400 volts peak (4800
volts peak to peak).
2. The high-voltage capacitor charges to 2400 volts
on the positive going voltage via the high volt-
age diode's conduction.
3. The high-voltage transformer plus the charged
high-voltage capacitor supply down to -4800
volts to the magnetron when the voltage goes
negative. (high-voltage diode is back biased.)
4. The magnetron converts negative input voltage
(and current) to RF energy at 2450 MHz.
