PREFACE
The increasing emphasis on reliability of electronic equipment
has led to the development of many types of special quality valves.
Their use is widespread - despite the increasing use of transistors -
so that data on their characteristics is essential. This volume super-
sedes the British Miniature and Subminiature Valves Data Annual and
provides designers and users with complete data on a wide range of
special quality valves.
In addition, the widening field of electronics has led to the de-
velopment of many types of special electron tubes and devices, e. g. ,
cathode ray tubes, photocells, counters, electroluminescent panels,
klystrons, magnetrons, stabilisers, etc. etc. The modern designer
needs information on these devices, and the second part of this book
provides data on a selection of the smaller sizes together with a con-
siderable amount of applications information.
The Editors hope that this completely revised and consider-
ably extended volume will prove of value to designers and users of all
types of electronic equipment.
