Re: Weird results DC operating point for Tube amplifier

Well, I have not much to tell.

The simulation worked right from day one, with 5.8V on the heater.

However, just right now, running the simulation gave the same erroneous results as mentioned by many, with 26V on the heaters (weird from a 24V source).

BUT, running the sim for 60 seconds shows the voltage oscillating, to more or less stabilize at about 5.8V. The peaks never go above 15V.

I'm no expert, but I suspect the different timesteps explain the different results.

Sorry, could you be more specific about your viable solution of .TRAN analysis (without UIC or Startup flag) ? I'm referring in particular to the ITS (aka DC operating point) solution (e.g. the DC current entering the heater's pins). Thanks.
