GENERAL DESCRIPTION |
The 3CW20,000A7 is a high-mu power triode intended to be used as a zero-bias Class-B amplifier in audio or radio-frequency applications. Operation with zero grid bias offers circuit simplicity by eliminating the bias supply. In addition, grounded-grid operation is attractive since a power gain as high as twenty times can be obtained. The 3CW20,000A7 is electrically identical to the air-cooled 3CX10,000A7 except for its 20 kW plate dissipation rating. |
