Vacuum Tube Gain & Gm Calculations & Some Insight Into Transformer Inductance and Impedance
My attempt to explain, in the simplest way I know, how to determine gain and transconductance of a vacuum tube triode from datasheets and characteristic curves with some comments about output transformer inductance and impedance values for vintage output transformers like the UTC and Acrosound brands that are very high quality HiFi vacuum tube output transformers.
