I need a module that can take a DC voltage of 2V - 12V continuously as its input and produce atleast 2KV DC continuously as its output. I've come across high voltage generator boost modules but they produce output in pulse (discontinuous.) What I want to know is do such modules exist that can continuously produce thousands of volts from low input voltage? If yes what are they usually called as?

I'm aware of high voltage bench power supplies that can continuously produce thousands of volts. But I don't want that. I just want a smaller device such as a module.

Application:

I want to use the module to power a parallel plates electrostatic device.

    \$\begingroup\$ Current output is a requirement. Even electrostatics use current - it may be small (1µA or less) but you'll have zero volts with zero current. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Oct 23, 2020 at 12:01

    \$\begingroup\$ At 2kV DC 100mA is going to be a lot more expensive than 1µA \$\endgroup\$ Commented Oct 23, 2020 at 12:29

    \$\begingroup\$ 2kV·1µA=2mW. 2kV·100mA = 200W. That's a hell of a difference. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Oct 23, 2020 at 13:32
