Typical Operation
| Mode | Plate V | Gm (µmhos) | Rp (Ω) | µ | Plate mA |

Application Notes
The driver stage should be capable of supplying the grids of the class B stage with the specified values at low distortion. In circuits where the cathode is not connected directly to the heater, the potential difference between heater and cathode should be kept as low as possible.
