So we are told that some manufacturers derate some mica caps above 5MHz. Others have caps that in slightly different applications have ratings that are high. Some mica caps can handle high currents i

Bearing in mind the effects of metal migration, do you get as good a filament life on DC as on AC? I know the old dull emitter filament valves were quite good, but there's a lot of difference in meta

We have a number of possible scenarios: 1. We get, for some reason, an arc from plate to grid. The resistor/fuse/what have you opens. Because once the arc is struck, it's a low impedance with around

I'd love to know why they think a +40dBm third order intercept is worth having. In a 3kHz bandwidth, you'd need phase noise at around -160dBc/Hz to make full use of that intercept point. 73 Peter G3R
