(Please read calculation examples below) In this video I discuss how to choose the right size & spec'd full bridge rectifier & electrolytic capacitor.

In the interests of avoiding confusing calculations please carefully study the below examples. Note in "Example 2" how the results = 200 this could easily be mistaken for 200uf. However, it is infact 200,000uf

Example 1:
10 amps x 8.3ms / 5.5volts = 15.0909 (15,0909uf)

Example 2:
10amps x 10ms /0.5volts = 200 (200,000uf)
