GENERAL DESCRIPTION |
The 8122 is a very small, low-cost, forced-air-cooled beam power tetrode designed for use as an RF power amplifier, oscillator, regulator, distributed amplifier, or linear amplifier in mobile or fixed equipment. The terminal arrangement of the 8122 facilitates use of the tube with tank circuits of the coaxial or strip-line type. Effective isolation of the output circuit from the input circuit is provided at the higher frequencies by the low-inductance ring termination for grid-2. A base-pin termination for grid-2 is also available for operation of the 8122 at the lower frequencies. |
