To me, from what I was taught in school and heard throughout my career, "operating point" is very specific and means the set of voltages and currents of the circuit, or the static bias conditions in the circuit.

"Working point" has no special meaning.? I guess it could mean anything.? I have never seen the expression "working point" used to mean the "operating point" of a circuit.

In other words, for circuit simulation, and only speaking from my electronics experience:

- "Operating point" means the bias conditions

- "Working point" is ambiguous or undefined

It makes sense that a translator might translate them the same, even if they do not mean the same thing to an American, English speaking electrical engineer.

That's why I encourage Bordodynov to use "operating point" in the English description.? Months from now, if someone comes across his file, if the file's description says "working point" they might not know what it is.? If it says "operating point" they know what it is probably about.
