Summary of Contents for Yaesu FL2100B

  • Page 29 SVETLANA TECHNICAL DATA 572B High-Mu Power Triode ™ he Svetlana 572B is a high-mu power triode intended for use in class AB, class B and class C RF and Audio amplifiers. The Svetlana 572B features a massive graphite anode for high peak overload capability and a high average plate dissipation of 160 Watts.

  • Page 31 When fitted in the FL-2100, Fl-2100B, FL2100B and FL2100F linears they sometimes oscillate in the standby mode because, as Yaesu has confirmed, the cut-off bias is only slightly higher than cut-off. If the amplifier 'takes off' as an unloaded TPTG oscillator it can wreak havoc.
  • Page 32 The Heathkit SB-200 which uses a similar circuit has 100V cut-off bias and is stable when fitted with the Svetlana 572B. This applies also to the new Yaesu FL-2100Z. The Svetlana 572B features a massive graphite anode for high peak overload capability and an average anode dissipation of 160W.
  • Page 33 Technical Bulletin 15 Svetlana Electron Devices, Inc (3000 Alpine Road, Portola Valley, CA 94028, USA) can also supply a 4CX400A tetrode for linear amplifier service and also a relatively inexpensive Svetlana SK2A ceramic socket for this valve. In the AB2 mode with 2.5kV EHT, it can produce over 600W PEP with low intermodulation distortion.
