Hello, i'm new here and thinking of making my own PSU. 2 CPU's rated (TDP?) 95W each (so they consume 200W.. I don't believe it, that's too much). Is my thinking flawed on this idea?.. I'm not an electrical engineer: I want to make 2 flat triangle shaped capacitor wafers (of many layers), at the narrow point the 2 wafers will be touching, and an increasingly widening tapered air gap toward the base. When electrons get pumped in at the wide base by 120 volts, both capacitor plates will fill with electrons (no they won't ). The Voltage at any point transverse to the line from the base to the point at the other end of the tapered wafers is proportionate to the angle of taper from the base to the point. Has anybody tried this? To me its like three magnets: two wafers and one in the middle; the one in the middle can't go down anymore because of repulsion (caused by the taper) so the voltage is weaker(?) at the point or is it weaker at the base? Or, is it the same voltage everywhere. Remember, its tapered gap. Does it matter what end is touching?
I want to make a simple, solid state capacitor, very lite and without a transformer or many other sized capacitors: just one shaped capacitor with stable wave pattern. I'm not an electrical engineer. I was thinking that the repulsion would naturally smooth the sine wave making it, also, a DC converter.
I'm interested in your ridicule. I already bought a cheap oscilloscope and would like some flaws to think about before the scope arrives. Remember: its a capacitor, the voltage let in is 120 ,but the amperage let in can be restricted. And, jumpers can be attached at any point between the base and point. Love to have those flaws pointed out : o )
Can a bypass transistor be added to shut current off when voltage gets too high?
