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

EBC91

Double-diode very-high-mu triode for receiver detection and resistance-coupled audio amplification. Two diode sections handle detector and control-voltage rectification while the triode provides substantial small-signal gain.
