[Amps] 3.5 kV 2A REGULATED Power Supply: Schematic ?

[Dr. William J. Schmidt, II]

 So you mean I can just replace my bias supply with a charged capacitor.. .since
you think the tube puts no current load on the bias supply?


Sincerely,

**  Bias supply regulation is not a factor in Class AB1 since zero current is
drawn from the bias supply.
