    50V LARGE caps 18x22 max for Power Supply

    Need help please, i need most capacitance as bulk to hold up after the bridge (12-24VAC = 34V peak+) as bulk
    max size is 18Dx22L mm
    considering KNSCHA DHG050M228N220S1AA (2200uF 50V 13mR 3.9A, 5000 hrs @ 105C

    The next best is 1800uF

    I see a bunch of SMT and PTH 1500uF
    i.e
    YAEGO CC0402JRX7R9BB102
    YMIN LKMJ2001H182MF

    Thoughts ?
    is KNSCHA ok ?
    spec says its AL foil + Ethanediol

    I have space for 2 caps, and need more than 300uF, hence why the 2 x 2200UF appeals
    I do have some poly caps aloingside, 2 x 120uF 10x10mm,

    Why that strange capacitor size of 18x22mm?

      We have a max height of 22mm, other than that, open.
      The best capacitance for thr 50V (or greater), seems to be 18x22

        What if you relocate the caps?
        or use 35V caps?
        I mean 24VAC = 34VDC.
        what kind of power supply is this? Linear or switcher?

          max height of the box is 22mm, plus tolerence, sp 24mm for the cap
          its on a 24VAC rail, so 34V normal, plus curge, so needs to be 50V
          it feeds an active bridge, then a buck-boost 4 FET convertor.
          Hence think I have found the best I can get, hence need to knwo if this manufacturer is ok ?

            Got no Idea if that cap brand is any good. Will it work? Probably. Is it a good quality part? Probably not. Capacitance alone isn’t the key here. The deciding factor is how much the 24VAC transformer can handle as an output. Not much good if you have the biggest caps, but only can use 30% because of the 24VAC transformer supply.

              2x 2200uF is a lot more than 300uF
              Why not go down in value a bit so the sizing is less restricted, and source something from a known-good brand like Panasonic?

              Never heard of KNSCHA, never seen them in anything, it's not even a pronounceable word!
              Can't say I'd trust them to last.

                Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
                by Tynan Dill
                I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

                Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

                I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

                The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

                With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

                Assuming...

                Help with switching power supply caps
                by captain150
                I'm trying to repair two old VCRs, they both have bad caps. One has leaky ones, the other would barely run until I subbed in some caps from another power supply I had laying around (though they are the wrong values). This vcr works for an hour or two, but then the power supply starts whining and the picture gets lines in it. I didn't replace all the secondary caps, so another voltage might still be problematic, or the values I used are too far off.
                I've been on mouser and digikey but the options are a bit overwhelming. I just need some new ones that will work. They don't need to be top quality,...

                Heathkit IO-4205 Power Supply Caps
                by eryjus
                Hello,

                First, I am a complete noob with high voltage stuff. I'm learning, but I need help by someone looking over my shoulder.

                I recently came into posession of a Heathkit IO-4205 5MHz Dual Trace Oscilloscope. The documentation is copyright 1978. I'm told it works.

                I opened it up to check the caps before I applied power, and found the following black caps and wanted to know what they were. They are on the power supply board. I was able to read the name and model and came up with, "Nytronics 162J-1, 0.1uF, 20% tolerance, 2000VDC."
                ...

                Desoldering gun station modified to use a 18 volt @ 20 amp switching power supply
                by sam_sam_sam
                I have wanting to do this project for quite sometime now and I finally found a switching power supply that will work on this desoldering gun station ZD-915 that the original switching power supply took a shit and just was not worth trying to fix it because this switching power is not quite big enough to handle the heater element and the vacuum pump

                One note when I tested the switching power supply and the voltage control board I noticed that this desoldering gun heat up much faster than the original switching power supply which I was really surprised by to the point that I might buy...

                Modification to a ZD-987 desoldering/soldering station using a external switching power supply
                by sam_sam_sam
                I have been working on this concept for quite some time now with limited success but recently I found a switching power supply that is setup for the voltage that this soldering station needs to operate at however it also needs part of the secondary circuit from the original switching power because you need several voltage rails

                I once tried to get a ZD-915 desoldering station to work on a 18 volt battery power supply but unfortunately things did not go well but I did find a work around but I might try this idea again but going at a little differently more about this another time...
