1. [AMPS] 8877 bias curve? (score: 1)
Author: N7CXI@SiliconPixels.com (Jim Barber)
Date: Fri, 02 Nov 2001 03:40:50 -0800
Hi folks, Doing some tinkering here, I worked out a polynomial based on Eimac's GG constant current curves for the 8877 to calculate static plate current based on a given bias voltage. Does anyone ha

Thanks! It's just a tinker-project anyway, but I thought it would be closer than that. Some day down the road I'd like to work out a real model, so that I could watch things spin around in SPICE. No

Thanks, Phil. I penciled in a 12V 50W zener for use at 3900V, but haven't gotten anything off paper yet. I'm also fiddling with a silicon bias switch and regulator combo, but have a ways to go. I lik

That brings a question to mind. Has anyone come up with a really nifty low-resistance, long-life method to terminate nichrome wire for high current applications? The only thing that comes to mind at

Hi folks, I finished restoring a two-hole 76A a few months ago, and it seems to be running fine. (nice little amp) My question: With the original attenuator, (resistor pack) I get roughly 650-700 wat

Rich and Skipp, For whatever it's worth, the highest VSWR I've seen at the radio is 1.6:1 . I can't tell you what it is at this half-cycle versus that one, of course, only what the digital metering o

Hi folks, I'm at the point where I'm laying out the B+ rectifier board for my 8877 project, and it occurs to me I don't know much about component spacing for high-voltage (2800 VRMS, 3900VDC typical)

Steve, John, and others that replied off the reflector: Thanks for the replies. I agree that it's much easier to buy pre-built modules, certainly cheaper when you consider the cost of having prototyp

Since this beastie will only see an ampere on the rare and unintended peak, I suspect that either diode strings or modules will last a long time, unless It Happens. There's a 50-ohm, 100-watt resisto

Ian, Ok, that makes sense. I suppose an inverted way of looking at it is that if the tube -didn't- emit any gas internally, there would be no need for a getter. One of the reasons I asked was based o

Only half kidding here - Try "four, four, four, four" (enunciate) and watch the meter. Out of all the silliness tried, it seems to kick the hardest, at least with my voice, mics, and meters. Jim, N7

If it's a common-ground problem, try flipping the non-polarized (horrible design) relay plug over on the back of the amp. Not than anyone asked, but many L4-B's also do not have a back-burp diode acr

Skipp, Tom's analysis brought up an excellent point. If the amp is an original PA-77, there should be 5 megohms resistance between B- and ground. Easy test. Selected bits: Regards, Jim, N7CXI -- FAQ
