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

ECH84A

Triode-hexode combination developed primarily for television synchronizing-pulse separation and amplification. Its multi-grid section processes sync pulses while the triode provides an associated amplification or pulse-processing stage.
