This Greinacher Circuit takes an AC voltage as input and outputs a doubled DC voltage.
The Villard Circuit is also known as the Voltage Double or Villard Doubler.
Notice that the Greinacher Circuit is a combination of a Clamper Circuit and Peak Detector Circuit.
Vout = 2 * Vpeak
Vout = 2 * 170 = 340VDC
