I'm in the planning stages of a new build and I wanted to compare some ESR D and Q measurements on the different capacitors I'm using. The results are predictable between the film caps and the electrolytic, but m having trouble understanding.
-the high ESR of the 33uf f&t (they're all new do they need "broken" in?)
-- what ripple current multipliers mean.
(The orange marks are the best numbers for .1uf capacitors) wima mkp stands out.
And if my ripple current in the first filter stage exceeds the datasheet max, do you parallel lower value caps to compensate?
'm building a single ended tube amp and I'm trying to get the best performance out of what I have available.
Thanks for the help in advance.
