- Description
- Specifications
The 4JD6 is a 9-pin miniature frame-grid sharp-cutoff pentode engineered for high-gain IF amplifier service in television receivers and radio front-ends. Operating on a 4.2V/450mA series heater, its frame-grid construction delivers exceptionally high transconductance for stable signal processing in wideband circuits. It was frequently specified in 1960s chassis designs by RCA Victor, Zenith, and Admiral. Available in NOS and tested used conditions.
