amplifier"arrangement};particularly for audio free quency and radio fre uenc "amplificationwork which comprises twoseries-connected tubes of Y the same type. Ifboth" tubes are simultaneously supplied with grid potential of like value, such an arrangement results in the same slope and only half the plate reaction of a single tube. Hence, this circuit scheme results in the inverse condition obtained with the usual parallel connection in which, for two similar tubes, the slope is doubled while the plate reaction re mains unchanged.
Series connection, of course, is useful also for more than two tubes as well as for tubes of dif- It could-also be combined with parallel connection so that any desired plate re,- action and any desired slope inside certain limits are obtainable. r
Circuit schemes according to this invention may be used to advantage in cases where an existent grid alternating current potential is to be amplified a certain amount, and where a tube which possesses the plate reaction required therefor,
dueto its limited permissible plate direct current has such a narrow grid width that the available alternating current potential can not be accommodated under conditions free from distortion. In thiscase, according to this invention, two tubes with double plate reaction (that is to say, double grid width for the sameplatepoties and harmful efiects since it is distributed over the two tubes.
The circuit scheme here disclosed may be used to advantage for reception where it is desired to tune two circuits independently of each other to different band widths and where the incoming energy is to be combined again. g
A third application of the circuit scheme here disclosed is for frequency doubling or frequency multiplication.
tential supply V. has its positive pole connected by way of the consumer or load (transformencoil or resistance) with the plate of tube 1-, while the negative pole is united with the filamentpf tube I II. In parallel relation to each tube iis suitably 3a. shows in what way such frequency doubling tiple of'the input frequency. The invention is shown in six illustrations.

Resistances R1 and R2 serve the purpose to make the time-constant of R and C so high that the audiofrequency variations of the lowest'ocg curing frequency will not yet occasion any apprel0 ciable discharges of the condensers. Furthermore, R1 and R2 must be so chosen that they will not impair the amplification of the tube. Hence, R1 and R2 mustbe high compared with the internal resistance of the tube and also great compared with for direct current and alternatin'gcurrent heat- 25 lead (see Figs. la and 'lb).
What is concernedin the case of Fig. 2 is a radio frequency amplifier in which the input circuits of the two series-connected electron tubes are tuned 0 to different band widths. 1 V i Figs. 3a. and 3b illustrate arrangements for frequency multiplication. The two tubes-are connected audion-fashion in this illustration. The
ing also from a resistance Wl', W2 in the plate ends of the grid winding of one tube are transposed with those of the other tube, with the re-' sult that one half-cycle is amplified by one tube, v and the other by the respective other tube. Fig.
may be continuedin additional stages. In Fig. 3b frequency multiplication is effected in a single such stage by that the plate coil is caused to react inductively upon the grid coils, and by that the plate circuit 'is'ituned to the desired 2 mul- 45 I claim:
