Figure 32: Determination of loading Capacitor C2.<br />

and the lumped capacitance added to the circuit. The output<br />

capacitance of the tube is given on the Eimac technical data<br />

sheet. <strong>Tube</strong> capacitance is measured in a shielded fixture (using<br />

a 4-wire bridge at 100 kHz), therefore the value that is obtained is<br />

one that is confined to the tube alone. Stray capacitance becomes<br />

increasingly important at higher frequencies; at 2 MHz it may be<br />

neglected.<br />

The inductance of the anode choke (Lc in figure 29) may be<br />

determined by noting that it is in shunt with the tuned circuit. If the<br />

rf current through the choke is to be limited to one percent of the<br />

tuned circuit circulating current, the inductance of Lc must then<br />
