  • Abstract
    A hydrogen gas triode clipper tube (CH 1078) is in the final developmental stage. The objective of this development is to design a tube capable of operating as a clipper in a line type modulator at a power level of 12.5 megw. A clipper tube is a device employed essentially for circuit protection and regulation. The tube is preferably inserted across the "far" end of the pulse forming network in series with a resistive load whose value approximates the network impedance.
