Witch Electrolytic Cap after Rectifier for Low-Power usage?

[dvb projekt]

Hi to all,

witch Electrolytic Cap after the rectifier do you prefer for low-power usage (max. 25V) ?

Feel free to vote and post your thoughts.

I've seen a lot of those "witch" Fuhjiyus causing power supply failures. I prefer to replace those with Sanyo OS-CONs.

Of these, I believe the Panasonic FC has the lowest ESR.

I was tossing up between Panasonic FM and the Nichicon FG, neither of which I have used (have used the Panasonic FC's)

Geek the FM's have a lower ESR than the FC's according to the datasheet 40-70% Less!

I just checked the max value at 25V and it is only 2700 uF The FC's go up to 5600 uF at 25V and the nichicon FG's 3300 and the rubycon ZL's 2700uF so depending on what values you need the choice may need to be made based on what values you can get! in each series...

Hi Tony,

don´t think much about the max. capacitance at 25V. If i would like to have more, i could insert an additional cap. 😉

Therefore i limit the question only the voltage.

Very cool! 🙂

I shall checkout my suppliers for these.

Cheers!

I've been very happy with the panny FM series. If I can't get that I use FC.

I think a "witch cap" flies on a broom.

Nichicon KZ. Mouser stocks many values now.

Nippon Chemicon LXV, LXY and LXZ

I believe KZE is the best of Nippon(United) Chemicon

Rubycon ZLH, ZL, YXH work excellent for me. I think they sound more neutral than the Panasonic FM and FC.

Panasonic FM or UCC LXZ. The LXZ seem to have the same specs as Panasonic FM, but rated for longer lifespan.
