I'm making yet another LM3886TF amp and I've ordered a 300VA 21+21 volt transformer, the closest I could find ready-made to the ideal voltage I had decided on of 18-20 volts.
21 volts, when rectified, should give 29-30 volts, right? (multiplying by 1.41)
This is a bit higher than the 27-28 I was aiming at, so I'm wondering if by connecting a display LED to the output of the reservoir caps this might drop the voltage that goes to the LM3886 by a volt or two. If not, could I drop the voltage with a diode?
(Hope all this makes sense, don't really know what I'm writing about.)
Thanks for any ideas.
