Does anyone know if multiplexing Nixies will
significantly reduce their
lifespan? Or does it in fact help versus "permanently on as needed"?
Looking at the datasheet for the non multiplexed GN4 nixie the different
cathode currents are given as ..
Cathode current 2mA
Maximum continuous current 3mA
Maximum pulse current 4mA
.. So from that I'd guess multiplexed nixies are a special breed.
