UU – High-vacuum full-wave rectifier; Number: Sequentially assigned number Examples: Note: "AC/"-series receiver tubes are listed under other letter tubes - AC/ 6C10 (6CU7/ECH42) – Triode/hexode frequency converter, Rimlock base; 6F22 (6267/EF86) – Low-noise A.F. pentode, noval base; 6F33 – Shielded pentode, Miniature 7-pin base
A sprytron, also known as vacuum krytron or triggered vacuum switch (TVS), is a vacuum, rather than a gas-filled, version. It is designed for use in environments with high levels of ionizing radiation, which might trigger a gas-filled krytron spuriously. It is also more immune to electromagnetic interference than gas-filled tubes.
The series-string version 7DJ8 / PCC88 was also introduced at the same time. The 6DJ8 was designed for use as a low-noise amplifier in VHF and UHF TV tuners, an improved successor to the usual 6BK7, but due to its high gain it was heavily used in high-end test equipment, for example, most high-quality oscilloscopes from the 1950s to the 1960s ...
Later thermionic vacuum tubes, mostly miniature style, some with top cap connections for higher voltages. A vacuum tube, electron tube, [1] [2] [3] valve (British usage), or tube (North America) [4] is a device that controls electric current flow in a high vacuum between electrodes to which an electric potential difference has been applied.
The 6V6 is a beam-power tetrode vacuum tube. The first of this family of tubes to be introduced was the 6V6G by Ken-Rad Tube & Lamp Corporation in late 1936, [1] with the availability by December of both Ken-Rad and Raytheon 6V6G tubes announced. [2] It is still in use in audio applications, especially electric guitar amplifiers. [3]
Any nonlinear component whose characteristics are given by a continuous, single-valued, smooth (differentiable) curve can be approximated by a linear small-signal model. Small-signal models exist for electron tubes, diodes, field-effect transistors (FET) and bipolar transistors, notably the hybrid-pi model and various two-port networks ...

A voltage-regulator tube (VR tube) is an electronic component used as a shunt regulator to hold a voltage constant at a predetermined level. Physically, these devices resemble vacuum tubes , but there are two main differences:
