| Mode | Plate V | Gm (µmhos) | Rp (Ω) | µ | Plate mA |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Voltage Doubler | 125 V | — | — | — | 85 mA |

Application Notes
The 25Z6 is designed for use in transformerless receivers. It can be used as a half-wave rectifier with plates and cathodes connected in parallel, or as a voltage doubler. A filter of the condenser-input type is recommended.
