Nixie-Röhre, Ziffern-Anzeige-Röhre

This tube, announced by Burroughs in 1967, featured the largest possible character height (0.52") in the tube bulb diameter (0.6"). This feature permits the equipment manufacturer to produce a physically smaller display while maintaining high readability. Compared to the most popular nixie tube (standard rectangular), the B-5560 only has a 15% smaller character height, but a 24% smaller tube width.

This tube was primarily used in Hewlett Packard test equipment, for example HP Counters 5216A and 5321B. The HP part number was 1970-0025.

Equivalent: National NL-918.
