Power Vacuum Tubes Handbook

This handbook examines the underlying technologies of each type of power vacuum tube device commonly in use today. It offers a comprehensive look at the important area of high-frequency/high-power applications of microwave power devices, making it possible for general principles to be translated to specific applications. Supporting mathematical equations and extensive technical illustrations and schematic diagrams help to explain the material more clearly. This third edition presents important updates on vacuum tube technology, devices, applications, design methods, and modulation methods. It also expands its scope to cover properties of materials and RF system maintenance and troubleshooting.
