Hi,
I am taking an 18 V rms AC signal and feeding it into a full bridge rectifier with smoothing capacitor (10,000 uF). The DC output is used to power other circuits within a battery storage system I am creating. It should draw no more than 2 A. I wanted to ask if I should be concerned about an inrush current when I first power the circuit up, since the smoothing capacitor is so large?
Thanks,
Don
