I have a feeling that if a transformer is rated 370-0-37, I need to enter 370 RMS in PSUD2. is this correct?
If yes, read on!
I am somewhat baffled by the power supply on the 211 circuit from Fi Primer. http://www.simpletube.com/databank/SingleEnded/211_SE_6SN7_6SN7_10K.gif
how can you get 900+V out of a 370-0-370 secondary?
I tried modelling a similar power supply in PSUD2 (do not know about output current so I used 100ma) and the max I can get is 500+V and even lower output voltage at higher current.
any ideas?
thank you.

analog_sa said:As used in the Fi Primer the transformer is a 740v as both windings are in series and the midpoint not connected.
well looking at the schematics as I have linked, there seemed to be only 1 secondary and that is 370-0-370.
thank you for the help
My reply came out too harsh. Sorry.
What i really mean is that using a simulation software is easy but often just wrong. If you open any basic electronic textbook you will immediately figure out that the PS used is a bridge rectifier and although the transformer has a centre tap, if not connected the entire denomination of 370-0-370 is quite pointless. It simply becomes a 0-740v.
