Hi All,
I built a power supply a few years back and I am thinking of using it for a small project... anyway I am trying to understand my VM reading.
Using a 20 VCT transformer - I added a few caps and two diodes on each leg. I am getting 15.6 volts on each leg unloaded (and 31.2 across - & +).
I am trying to understand why or what this will be putting out once it is under load. The voltage x 1.4 or 1.2 doesn't seem to "add up"?
What am I missing? I though it would be 10v x 1.4 or 14 volts or maybe a little less. It's appears to be a well built Triad transformer.
Thanks
