A high voltage power supply is disclosed. The high voltage power supply comprises a primary winding and one or more secondary windings. In one embodiment, a single secondary winding is used and the high voltage doubler circuit comprises a capacitor string and a diode string. In another embodiment, a plurality of secondary windings are used and the high voltage doubler circuit comprises a plurality of low voltage doubler circuits arranged in series. To create a more uniform distribution of voltage across the capacitors in the high voltage doubler circuit, one or more shields are disposed on the printed circuit board. In certain embodiments, a high voltage shield is disposed at the high voltage output and a low voltage shield is disposed at the low voltage end of the high voltage doubler circuit. One or more intermediate shields may be disposed in the high voltage doubler circuit.
