Application Notes
The minimum supply voltage should be 170 volts. However, the use of highest available voltage with the appropriate series resistor is recommended to maintain cathode current within the specified limits. A supply voltage of 200 volts or more is recommended to assure proper operation at the temperature extremes. The center line of the numbers to be displayed passes through pins 6 and 12 of the tube. The tube socket should be oriented so that pins 6 and 12 are in a vertical line with pin 12 at the top.
