Phantastron

A Phantastron is a type of electron tube oscillator or timer circuit. It was invented during radar development during World War 2.[1] It was described in the Radiation Laboratory series of books, in particular the one on waveforms.

Components
  • Resistors
  • Capacitors: determine the frequency of the oscillations and filters in the circuits.
  • Vacuum tubes: provides a current of electrons being shot.
  • Top panel and turret board: the outside covers of electron tube oscillator or timer circuit.
