Re: LCD monitor power supply

 

Do NOT give in to the temptation to get caps with much higher voltages. Electrolytics must run at something not to far under their rated voltage.

I'm not sure what the voltage derating is supposed to be, but I usually try not to use caps at less than 70% of their rated voltages.

Also, consider getting caps with a higher temperature rating.
Nichicon makes good caps that have higher temp. ratings
for not much more than the cost of lower temp rating devices.
