Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

RE: rant warning

Hey,

I would think it would be the impedance of the single ended output transformer plus the plate resistance of the output tube.


that was my guess too. you have a single node and only need to look at the two parallel paths to ground to calculate.

now consider that unless you have infinite inductance, you may need infinite capacitance to compensate.

put another way... at low frequencies, the inductance dictates the impedance and if you try to increase capacitance to make up for the loss of inductance, you are chasing your tail.
