Another person just posted a thread about his broken PC power supply. I noticed in his pics that there were gigantic (physically) capacitors in the supply. This reminded me that I have seen big capacitors in many power supplies.
I'm in the middle of building a power supply of my own. All the documentation I've referenced so far has suggested that I use a few different size capacitors as filters. These were all small capacitors, nowhere near what I see in computer power supplies.
Why the big caps?
Thank you
