| Mode | Plate V | Gm (µmhos) | Rp (Ω) | µ | Plate mA |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50 c/s Sinusoidal Input | — | — | 16000 | — | 5 mA |
| 40 to 300 Kc/s Sinusoidal Input | — | — | — | — | 0.5 mA |
| Pulsed Input (Approx. 5% occupance) | — | — | — | — | 0.5 mA |
Application Notes
For low frequency circuits, the heater must be switched on for 1 minute before the high tension supply is applied to the anode, unless the peak inverse voltage is limited to 12 KV. At frequencies above 50 Kc/s, with output voltages greater than 8 KV, the anode lead must be surrounded by a corona cap.
