THE BRIDGE STABILIZED OSCILLATOR 585 The particular value assumed by Ri in the circuit of Fig. 3 is ap-proximately (R2Rz)/Ri = [(100)(150)]/114 = ohms, and hencefrom Fig. 5 it follows that the power supplied to the lamp is about The voltage across the lamp is computed to volt, and across the entire bridge, volt. The power suppliedto a load of 150 ohms through the pad composed of R-; and Rs is accord-ingly milliwatt, or db below 1 milliwatt, which is in agreementwith measurements shown in Figs. 8 and 9, described below.
