I am building a power supply. I wish it do not have any ripples. Can I use a supercapacitor in filtering?
In fact, supercapacitors are not suitable for this type of application, although they can be used with changes in the design so that they do not represent a short when the power is turned on. They can be used more as a reservoir of energy that allows power without ripple after a conventional power source. The project must be done carefully.
