At Blackburn MicroTech Solutions we develop and manufacture cathodes for all types of cathode ray tubes (CRT) including colour picture tubes (CPT), monitors and colour data tubes (CDT), projection TV (PTV) and medical and defence CRTs. There are three basic cathode types:

Oxide Cathode For standard CPT / CDT applications up to 2.2 A/cm2
Cermet Cathode For CPT/CDT applications up to 3.5 A/cm2 (especially for Wide Screen and Real Flat).  Cost effective replacement for the Impregnated Cathode (I-Cathode)
Impregnated (Dispenser) Cathode For high end applications up to 8 A/cm2.  For wide screen and real flat CRT and professional CRT applications (medical/defence) and also projection TV's

Product range

These cathodes are available in a standard Philips module construction with an integrated heater and in other constructions with a separate heater suitable for mounting in different types of electron guns.

All our cathodes have the following characteristics:

  • Low power consumption (0.65W)
  • Fast Warm up time because of the suspended cathode structure
  • Excellent thermal stability because of the suspended cathode structure
  • High production yield in the gun assembly process because of the modular construction which needs no separate heater assembly
  • Good compatibility with existing gun assembly processes
