I see the max uF for the first cap in the data sheets, but how much can you add after the first filter section?
Does a tube rectifier offer lower ripple over SS?
Thanks,

Unless it's a very small inductor or resistor, the second capacitor can be almost anything.Blair wrote:Does a tube rectifier offer lower ripple over SS?

Yes, because a tube rectifier has more resistance than a silicone diode, so the peak is smaller, if you use the same capacitors. But you can have much more capacitance with silicone, so usually there is less ripple with silicone.
