Mazda 6F13 high-slope screened RF pentode with eight-contact B8A-style base, indirectly heated 6.3 V 0.35 A. Manufacturer maxima plate and screen 250 V each; plate dissipation 3.5 W, screen dissipation 1 W under specified grid-cathode resistance conditions. Typical Va=Vg2=200 V and grid bias ~-1.8 V: anode 10 mA, screen about 2.6 mA, gm ~9 mA/V (0.009 S). Manufacturer electrode capacitances plate-to-earth ~4.4 pF, control-grid-to-earth 9.5 pF and control-grid-to-plate ~0.007 pF without holder; total with holder varies. Cap flag true. Designed for broadband RF and television/video amplification.
