  2. Cathode-ray tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathode-ray_tube

    A cathode-ray tube (CRT) is a vacuum tube containing one or more electron guns, which emit electron beams that are manipulated to display images on a phosphorescent screen. [2] The images may represent electrical waveforms on an oscilloscope , a frame of video on an analog television set (TV), digital raster graphics on a computer monitor , or ...

    The Wikipedia will use its language if the SVG file supports that language. For example, the German Wikipedia will use German if the SVG file has German. To embed this file in a particular language use the lang parameter with the appropriate language code, e.g. [[File:Cathode ray tube diagram-en.svg|lang=en]] for the English

  4. Time base generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_base_generator

    A time base generator (also timebase or time base) is a special type of function generator, an electronic circuit that generates a varying voltage to produce a particular waveform. Time base generators produce very high frequency sawtooth waves specifically designed to deflect the beam of a cathode ray tube (CRT) smoothly across the face of the ...

  5. Flyback transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flyback_transformer

    The flyback transformer circuit was invented as a means of controlling the horizontal movement of the electron beam in a cathode-ray tube (CRT). Unlike conventional transformers, a flyback transformer is not fed with a signal of the same waveshape as the intended output current.

  6. Cathode ray - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathode_ray

    After the electrons strike the back of the tube they make their way to the anode, then travel through the anode wire through the power supply and back through the cathode wire to the cathode, so cathode rays carry electric current through the tube. The current in a beam of cathode rays through a vacuum tube can be controlled by passing it ...

  7. Electron gun - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_gun

    An electron gun (also called electron emitter) is an electrical component in some vacuum tubes that produces a narrow, collimated electron beam that has a precise kinetic energy. The largest use is in cathode-ray tubes (CRTs), used in older television sets, computer displays and oscilloscopes, before the advent of flat-panel displays.

  8. Magic eye tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_eye_tube

    The magic eye tube (or valve) for tuning radio receivers was invented in 1932 by Allen B. DuMont (who spent most of the 1930s improving the lifetime of cathode ray tubes, and ultimately formed the DuMont Television Network). [5] [6] [7] The RCA 6E5 from 1935 was the first commercial tube.

  9. Control grid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_grid

    Schematic symbol used in circuit diagrams for a vacuum tube, showing control grid. The control grid is an electrode used in amplifying thermionic valves (vacuum tubes) such as the triode, tetrode and pentode, used to control the flow of electrons from the cathode to the anode (plate) electrode. The control grid usually consists of a cylindrical ...
