Hi. Does anyone have Lt Spice model for soviet 1Ж29Б rod pentode ?
Hi artosano,
Due to changing priorities, I will not be able to finish my 1sh29b model before december.
Perhaps someone else is so kind to generate a model for you?
Kind regards, Adrian
is there a model around for 6C45pi?
This is everything I've collected for 6C45P (6S45P). I don't have any of those tubes, so I can't tell you which (if any) of these are particularly accurate. I understand the tubes themselves have quite variable characteristics, which would make it difficult to create a one-size-fits-most model. Hopefully one of these models will work well enough for you.

Thanks Ron, appreciated. They take some time to settle when used for the first time, a couple of hours should do it. I'll pick the model with the nearest gm.This is everything I've collected for 6C45P (6S45P). I understand the tubes themselves have quite variable characteristics, which would make it difficult to create a one-size-fits-most model. Hopefully one of these models will work well enough for you.
Something to worry about? And, is there a model around for 6C45pi?
33k cathode resistor for 6S45P is just wasting it's potential. It is best at anode current 20 mA and more.
Yup, just replaced it with 1K. How about the graphic, the dark figure resembles an audiofile. Some sort of oscillation?33k cathode resistor for 6S45P is just wasting it's potential. It is best at anode current 20 mA and more.
Hi guys. I'm trying to simulate a 6L6 single ended output stage. I've been told I should be able to get 12W out of it, but using the models here I can't get past 6W.
I'm using the 6L6.inc model from Ayumi, but also tried other 6Lx6's to no avail.
Here's a screenshot of the test circuit. I simply increased the input voltage amplitude till I reached 6% THD at the output, and then measured the output power. Am I missing something obvious here, please?
ETA: Sorry, B2 should have been 240V instead, but it doesn't make a difference in the simulation

You have been told something that even the tube manufacturer does not promise.
Look at the tube data here: http://www.mif.pg.gda.pl/homepages/frank/sheets/127/6/6L6G.pdf
Your main problem is far too low plate voltage (293 V).
In the datasheet 10.8 W is got with 350 V at plate (and 15 % THD), with 4k2 load impedance and fixed bias.

Hi. Does anyone have Lt Spice model for soviet 1Ж29Б rod pentode ?
Hi all,
does anybody speak Russian here?
I struggle to find the internal capacitances of the 1sh29b in its data sheet.
And translate.google just failes...
