This circuit may be used where a high current is required with a low ripple voltage (such as in a high powered class AB amplifier when high quality reproduction is necessary ).

Q1 | 2N3055 |
Q2 | 2N3054 |
Q1, Q2, and R2 may be regarded as a power darlington transistor. D5 and R1 provide a reference voltage at the base of Q1. D5 should be chosen thus:
D5=Vout-1.2
D5=Vout-1.2
C2 can be chosen for the degree of smoothness as its value is effectively multiplied by the combined gains of Q1/Q2, if 100µF is chosen for C2, assuming minimum hef for Q1 and Q2,
C=100×15(Q1)×25(Q2)
=37000µF.
