  • Abstract
    IGNITRON TUBES have been applied as the basic rectifying device in electronic power converters for many years. The fields of application have been both broad and varied. New applications and new requirements on old-type applications stipulate more stringent performance characteristics and an even greater reliability than ever before required.
