Voltage - Triode (with diode, heptode or hexode) ·Diode-Diode-Triode

DH30

Double-diode high-gain triode developed for receiver detection and subsequent voltage amplification. The paired diode elements provide rectification while the unusually strong triode section supplies substantial gain to the recovered signal.
