So I am going to be starting a build soon and I am curious about the possibility of a cascode/triode switch. I need help from those who have experience with a cascode design to let me know if the switch idea that I have will work.
I am working off the schematic below that I found online. Ignoring component values, I am just looking at the switch wiring.
So my ideas is to get a 4PDT On/On switch and have the poles set up like so:
Up is Triode/Down is Cascode
Pole 1: Switch the input after the 1Meg resistor between V1 Pin 7 (Up) and V1 Pin 2 (Down)
Pole 2: Lift the wire from Pin 7 going to Pin 1 (Up) and connected (Down)
Pole 3: Add an additional .047 off of Pin 6 and switch AFTER the cap between Pin 6 (Up) and Pin 8 (Down)
Pole 4: Here is the difficult part. This pole would switch between a normal cathode cap/resistor (Up) and Pin 1 (Down). The switch would take place before the 1k resistor and the .047uf cap. My question here is can I even switch in this place due to the voltage present in the cascode arrangement?
Thanks!
