Pentode in Triode Mode
flipper wrote:
Ok, screen to plate, no sweat. The question is, with a pentode that has separate cathode and suppressor connections, is connecting the suppressor to cathode the best thing? Or leave it float? Would there be any operational difference? Makes little difference if the suppresser is connected to the plate or the cathode. Some tubes have it connected internally to the cathode. The sought after effect in pentode as triodes is that the control grid sees G2 as a plate. G3 is hidden behind G2, so it doesn't have much effect here. |
