- I want to update the old-fashioned clamp-tube circuit. I want to create a solid-state switch that will accept a voltage input (negative, but it can be inverted) derived from the rectified grid curren

- Vic: The slightest little arc in the tube, the tiniest little gassy discharge kind of event, would instantly destroy a series pass transistor. Instantly. I would think a shunt device (with a series b

- Hi Vic, A power FET or an IGBT (with an internal or external diode) should do for that spot rather than an old bipolar device. At least a 600V device would be indicated. 600V IGBT's have become very

- I recommend taking the horizontal output transistor out of an old NTSC (analog) TV set. They are about 1,200 Volts at 6 or 7 amps, heat sunk. A single hi Voltage (Video output transistor) inverter an

- If I bias the tube for class C, then the keying envelope will get very sharp. It would be a click generator. What I'm thinking about now is having just enough fixed bias to barely cut the tube off (a

- It was also used in transmitters, such as my Heath DX-100. I became familiar with the clamp circuit (a 6AQ5) when I built a T-R switch on the Pi network and the electron noise from idling current was
