Hi,
I would like to build an AC to DC transformer for my amp.
The needs are 230V AC input and 12V DC 4A output.
I know that I need first an AC transformer, then a rectifier+smoothing+regulator parts.
My first question is: in order to have 12V DC do I need a 12V AC at the output of the AC to AC transformer?
The second question is related to a toroidal transformer like this one: Toroidal transformer (RS-Components)
It has 2 x 12V output, I think they are rated at 2.083A each, how I can have only one output rated at 4A? Do I simply connect the orange and black wires together and also the yellow and red ones?
Thanks in advance,
Ralf
