These specifications have been
released into the public domain in accordance with International
Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR 22 CFR 120.11 (6)
Design Notes:
1. All tubes are control grid modulated and also incorporate
a shadow grid to assist in the suppression of grid emission
and grid intercept current.
2. All L-3 Electron Devices' TWTs are inherently capable of
dual-stage collector depression should it be necessary to
fulfill a particular system requirement.
3. A mod anode connection is provided on all TWTs and may
be utilized to accommodate system sensing circuits and also
reduce the potential damage incurrred by cathode-to-anode
high-voltage arcs. This protection is accomplished through
the incorporation of an external anode-to-ground resistance
of two kilohms.
4. All cathode and collector voltages are referenced to ground.
