Hello.I am making a simple 0.5A /35V psu with a 24Volt AC transformer ,4 diodeS UF4002 and a 2200uF capacitor. I was considering the initial charge current and if the diodes are ok to handle it or should i move to something like HER205? Simulating with a 100 ohm load to get an idea of the current pulses in each diode i got the image below.So how i select a diode with respect to these simulation pulses? UF4002 Datasheet says :
IFRM Repetitive peak forward current of 10A
IFSM Non-repetitive peak forward current of 30A
IFRM Repetitive peak forward current of 10A
IFSM Non-repetitive peak forward current of 30A
