THE M-O VALVE COMPANY LIMITED
A2087
VHF NOISE GENERATOR DIODE
BRIEF DATA
A VHF noise generator diode with a tungsten filament. The A2087 is a commercial equivalent of the CV2171.
FILAMENT
*Filament voltage range Filament current (approx at Vf = 4.3 V)
0-4.3 0.6
V A
"The saturated anode current is regulated by variation of the filament
voltage. With a 6.3 V filament supply, a variable series resistor of 10 n max.
will be suitable for most purposes.
