A-101 = A101 tube. Dekatron |
Description
Tubes function both as counters and displays. Tube has 30 cathodes arranged around a central anode disc. Each cathode is connected to one of three external pins, forming ten electrode groups. Applying three sequentially phased pulses to these pins makes the glow discharge jump from one electrode to the next. An external phase-shift network is used to provide the sequencing, resulting in a counter that advances the glow by three electrodes for every single input pulse. Dekatron A-101 is bidirectional (is able to count clockwise and vice versa).Technical characteristics:
