Question for igor

Hi, I've been meaning to ask you, whether you're thinking of adding vacuum tubes as a component here. I'd be FANTASTIC!

That would be great.

They should generally add more stuff like enhancement and depletion MOSFETs and Electrolytic Caps.

vacuum tubes!

There are electrolytic caps, but yeah

Karsten

Where are the electrolytic caps? I just see regular caps.

thebugger

They're not capacitors per se, they represent capacitance as a whole. Both you and me know that a 470uF capacitor for instance will surely be electrolytic in reality but here in EC only the value is important.

I would love me some triodes.

Me two. I'd really really appreciate it. Triodes, pentodes (even though they'd be harder to implement) etc.

DPDT Switches and relays would also be convenient.

There are relays and you can use two relays as a dpdt switch.

I study in Sharagha. Moscow . Your circuits are good but i built more beautiful circuits when i was 12. But when i went in Sharagha i became the most stupid guy in my country. And all my circuits are headache and don't work. Thank you for your circuits. I hope i will be so good engineer like you

Oh, besides, about tubes, i don' t like this retro shit.

VACUUM TUBES PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW!!! I want to experiment with them and figure out how they work. :) AND SOMEONE PLEASE MAKE A VACUUM TUBE WITH THE AVAILABLE COMPONENTS EXCEPT FOR SILICON COMPONENTS (diodes, transistors and MOSFETS). PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW!!!

That retro shit is responsible for all the things we have today. If it weren't for vacuum tubes, no one would've perfected amplification or modulation or whatever. See tubes and transistor have so much in common, both in circuit design and in basic principles of operation, but the only difference is that tubes work on much higher voltages and typically have quite high resistance.

That old grandfather? Let's make scheme in modern transistors.

Geah. Fantastic. "Pure vacuum sound" amplifiers with gramophones. And large tube-based computer along all my wall. Wire phones, Caribbean crisis, clocks with gasdischarge lamps, hairy pussies, 4 chanels in my RCA 630 with hot news from Vietnam. Oh, lets return in 1960s. Screw da progress and "soulless" semiconductors. Geah.

Vacuum tubes are complicated, so I see why they aren't coming to EveryCircuit anytime soon
