  • Capacitors and diodes metod for stepping up the voltage

    Hi guys;Can somebody explain to me more deeper how to find ,in fact ,the proper values for capacitors in this methods?
    They stated ,you must put an A meter on the input wire (see attachment)
    to find the amperage rating of these caps.

    What mean that? Is not clear for me....you must take an capacitor and put it on
    power source hocked with an A meter in series? If yes ,when you put the cap at the power source,the cap will charge very fast.You cannot appreciate in less an second how many current has flowed until this cap has charged.

    Also ,I think, the quantity of current will depend on voltage source.If you put the cap at a higher voltage source,trough the cap will flow more current like when you put it at the lower voltage source.

    If So, to find the maximum amperage rating of the cap,you must put the cap at the power source voltage similar with the voltage what you reading on the cap?
    Any thoughts, opinions?
