Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce the cost by electrically connecting the other end of an electrically connected lead to a driver IC chip provided on the outer face through a vacuum envelope. CONSTITUTION:A lead 2 feeds a current to electrodes consisting of a filament 6, a grid 7, and an anode 8 provided in a vacuum envelope 1. The lead 2 is extracted to the outside through the vacuum envelope 1, it is folded and soldered at the portion of a lead connection section 4 to an Ag pad provided in advance on the face of the vacuum envelope 1, and the portion of the lead connection section 4 is connected to a driver IC chip 3. The lead 2 extracted through the vacuum envelope 1 from its inside is utilized to perform the electric connection to the circuit on the outer face of the vacuum envelope, thus a printed board is omitted, and the cost can be reduced.
