I am building a simple full wave rectifier with smoothing capacitor. I am using the following transformer to drop the input voltage:
in: 120V 65W
out: 12V 4170mA AC
The rectifier bridge is 50V 25A (I also have 400V 8A). The power supply is going to be used for 18W guitar amplifier based on this schematic:
schematic
Since I am still a noob when it comes to electronics, I have have no idea what value the smoothing capacitor should have.
Anybody can help me out?
Thanks.
