Hello,
I am posting in hope the more seasoned vetrans here can give me some input on how to construct a Stable 5v regulator for use in a noisey Automotive enviorment i need just under 2 amps of current so i am looking at the LM323T 3A linear vreg in the to-220 case i plan to put a large heatsink on this to dissipate heat generated. My question is what would be the best choice in capacitors to Filter the output? Also is there anything i can do to provide some sort of protection to the regulator itself (diodes) Im sorry if my question seems very beginner. But this is the first time im going to use one in a noisy automotive enviorment and need a stable clean voltage.
Thank you all for reading my questions and i look forward to hearing your ideas!
Geoff
