I'm building a power suppy out of 2 regulated 24v @6.5A single output power supplies, both are over-voltage and short-circuit protected.
I'm going to have 2 adj outputs one positive, the other negative. another adj regulator is going to be used as a +5,9,12v output, using a rotary switch to change different resistance amouts to control the output. finally I'll have a 5v output which will charge my ipod and play music out of it (i threw that in there, just because i could and i like listening to music when i work on my circuits )
so my question is if my 24v is regulated, do i need to use filter caps in my regulator circuits?
