Tube Circuit Gain Calculator

Tubes || AX84 version || RC-22/mu version || RC-22/gm version
This calculator is based on a standard gain equation noted in the design docs of the http://www.ax84.com/ (AX84 amp project) pages:
plate resistance || plate load resistance || following grid resistance
----------------------------------------------------------------------
            (1 / transconductance) + cathode resistance
A sample circuit image is available to show the resistances used.

NOTES:
This equation works best if you have a cathode bypass cap and use 0 ohms (for AC purposes) for the cathode resistor.
Values may be any standard form (68400 or 68.4K, 1M or 1000000, etc.) Check the "Use comma for decimal point" box if you use a comma to designate a decimal point (i.e., opposite the way it's done in the USA).

Use comma for decimal point
Plate resistance : from tube manual or spec sheet
Plate load resistor : value of resistor between plate and power supply
Following grid resistance : grid resistance of following circuit or plate load resistance
Transconductance (in uMHOs) : from tube manual or spec sheet
Cathode resistor : value of cathode resistor
