Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

RE: Rectifier choices for 650v HT

It's always valuable to read the data sheets carefully. In the Tung-Sol sheet for this tube, no maximum capacitor is specified, just the maximum peak current per diode. PSUD will tell you this number, it is a combination of the capacitance, the impedance of the transformer, the voltage, and the current draw.

What IS specified is a few "typical" conditions, including the resistance of the power transformer.
