Vacuum Tube Amplifier Dynamics and External Impedance
The article explains how a three electrode vacuum tube uses A and RB batteries for filament and plate, with a O battery for the grid. It defines static versus dynamic characteristics, showing how external plate impedance causes voltage drops across R and internal impedance ZI. It describes how increasing external resistance shifts the dynamic curve toward grid voltage, aiming for amplification with constant plate voltage and proportional plate-to-filament variation, and notes practical circuits with R, external loads, and cascading stages for greater gain.
