Abstract :
Among the many interesting and valuable applications of that versatile device, the 3-electrode hot-cathode gas-filled thermionic tube, is the inverter. Of the several different types of circuits developed, the “parallel” type gives promise of becoming of some importance, and already has been used commercially for supplying power to a-c radio sets from d-c systems. This article gives an analysis of the operation of this type of inverter under different load conditions.
