Any recommendations?
I've chosen 0.01uF as the tank cap of my primary, which is a bit higher than the static gap LTR cap value - 0.0095uF. Will it cause any problem?
The peak voltage across the cap is 21213V and the recommended cap rating is 53033V, but I've decided to take 30000V, will that be OK?
Also I need some suggestions on constructing the MMC. What dimension(number of string and number of caps in each string) of the MMC should I use? Any recommendations on good, durable caps?
