Behaviour of parallel RC circuit attached to 'rectified' DC and AC voltage source
I have been having some trouble understanding the functioning of a capacitor and a resister attached in parallel to a rectifier to smooth out the time-variant dc output. From what I have read, a ...

Can you smooth mains A.C?
I know you can smooth DC with a capacitor but what if you have an unstable mains AC voltage (here in the UK that's 240V 50Hz)? Are there components that can be used or products one can make/buy for ...

Choosing capacitance for recifier
So I'm trying to use a couple of rectifiers. Specifically, the "NTE5326" and the "36MB120A."
I've tried following videos on how to calculate for a smoothing-capacitor but to no avail.
If you use ...
