Typical Operation
| Mode | Plate V | Gm (µmhos) | Rp (Ω) | µ | Plate mA |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Short grid base | 15000 V | — | — | — | 0.15 mA |
| High brightness applications | 15000 V | — | — | — | 2.5 mA |
Application Notes
All potentials are referred to grid. Tube is inefficient under grid modulation unless drive is also applied to A3.
