Re: Okay, let me ask a real dumb question

"It seems to me that if we consider an ideal choke input supply with very high inductance and perfect diodes (zero dropout voltage) then the current through the choke would be constant, not sinusoidal."

I look at it this way.

The current through the choke in a choke input PS is constant and sinusoidal. Constant only meaning that the current never stops flowing.


On the other hand. Look at how low the amplitude is of this current waveform. That's almost constant. That's what 250Hy will get you.

My 2 cents.
