Grid Condenser Function.

A battery lead of the flament cir
cult.
Grid Condenser Function.
The function of the grid condenser
is to keep the grid OF the tube at
tion. In that respect 1T performs
practically the same function In keep
ing the tube at its best deteetor
operating point as the c battery does
in keeping the amplifier tube. at Its
best anplifying point.
The grid leak acts more or less
as q safety valve to keep the tube
from choking up" due to the rapid
accumulation of negative electrons
on the grid.
When too many of them accumu-
late on the grid, the negative cleo
irons leak off through the grid and
back to the filament circuit, thus re-
Heving the grid of the excessive
negative charges. You will now see
why the grid return should be con-
aected with the positive side Of the
filament circuit.
In electricity, like charges repel
and unlike charges attract. If the
grid return were connected with the
negative side OF the flament circuit,
the negative charges would not flow
bRCE from tne gTld 10 the ntaIhent
because of a certain opposition to
negative charges from the negative
filament lead, but since the grid re-
turn Is connected with the positive
side of the f1lament circuit the mega
tive eleotrons are attracted to the
filament circuit.
