The 8056 is a low-voltage [[Nuvistor]] triode with a 6.3V heater
[[File:Nuvistor 8056.jpg |thumb|350px|right|Nuvistor 8056]] The '''8056''' is a low-voltage [[Nuvistor]] triode with a 6.3 V heater.  
It is used in the [[10A1]] and the [[422]].


It is used in the [[422]], [[502]], early [[W]], [[1S1]], [[3A7]], early [[3S3]], [[3T4]], [[5T3]], and [[10A1]].
It can sometimes be replaced with a [[MPF102]] FET.
The 8056 has a maximum plate-to-cathode voltage of 50 V.
Contrast this with another Nuvistor triode, the [[7586]], which has a maximum plate-to-cathode voltage of 110 V
(however, one of the 8056 test conditions for 157-0099-00 puts 100 V on the plate.)
The 7586 and 8056 have the same pinout, but the two tubes are not interchangeable since they have different voltage ratings.
For example, in the front-end cathode followers of the [[3A1]], the plate voltage of the 7586 tubes,
V113 and V123, is 55 V, and possibly a bit higher during warm-up.
This exceeds the maximum plate voltage of the 8056, unless the 3A1 is modified for lower front-end plate voltages.
