grid leak resistor
1Grid-leak detector — A grid leak detector is a combination diode rectifier and audio amplifier used as a detector in vacuum tube A.M. radio receivers. In the circuit, the grid of the detector usually a low mu or medium mu triode is connected to the secondary of the… …
2grid leak — noun : a resistor used in parallel with a capacitor in the grid circuit of a vacuum tube to limit grid bias by drawing off excess electrons that accumulate on the tube grid * * * Electronics. a high resistance device that permits excessive… …
3Grid bias — is a DC voltage applied to electron tubes (or valves in British English) with three electrodes or more, such as triodes. The control grid (usually the first grid) of these devices is used to control the electron flow from the heated cathode to… …
4Valve audio amplifier - technical — Circuitry and performance Characteristics of valves Valves are very high input impedance (near infinite in most circuits) and high output impedance devices. They are also high voltage / low current devices.While valves themselves are described… …
5Battery (vacuum tube) — In electronics, vacuum tubes were traditionally powered by batteries. Each battery had a different designation depending on which vacuum tube element it was associated with.Initially, the only such device was a diode with only a filament… …
6India ink — Indian ink redirects here. For the Tom Stoppard play, see Indian Ink. India ink (or Indian ink in British English) is a simple black ink once widely used for writing and printing and now more commonly used for drawing, especially when inking… …
7Plate detector (radio) — A plate detector is a vacuum tube detector circuit used in A.M. radios. This circuit employs a tube with an indirectly heated cathode, typically a medium mu triode, or a tetrode or pentode with a sharp cut off control grid. Rectification of R.F.… …
8List of vacuum tubes — This is a list of vacuum tubes or thermionic valves. Before the advent of semiconductor devices, hundreds of tube types were used in consumer and industrial electronics; today only a few types are still used in specialized applications. Contents… …
