PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a power supply unit capable of shortening a preheating time by a heater which is necessary in recovering from a power failure state or powering-on without causing the instability of operation, a high-frequency circuit system, and a heater voltage control method. SOLUTION: In recovering from a power failure, a voltage higher than that in a normal operation is supplied to a heater, and, after a lapse of a preset time, a voltage supplied to the heater is changed over to a voltage in the normal operation, and a control signal for starting the operation of an electron tube is outputted. Alternatively, in turning power on, the rate of change of a heater current is determined in each period of time, when the rate of change is set to a value not larger than a preset threshold, a voltage higher than that in the normal operation is supplied to the heater; and, after a lapse of the preset time, the voltage to be supplied to the heater is changed over to the voltage in the normal operation, and a control signal for starting the operation of the electron tube is outputted.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a coaxial waveguide conversion circuit which makes a contact state between a coaxial internal conductor and a waveguide matching component better than the existing structure, and increases heat radiation from the travelling wave tube to the waveguide. SOLUTION: A fitting hole 207b of a single waveguide matching component 207A is a tapered round hole, and the hole diameter becomes thinner towards the tip of the component. In addition, an aperture diameter of the fitting hole 207a on the tip side of the component 207A is larger than the tipmost diameter of the coaxial internal conductor 205, and smaller than the diameter of the main body of the coaxial internal conductor 205. Consequently, when the coaxial internal conductor 205 is inserted into the fitting hole 207a of the waveguide matching component 207A; each cantilever support 207c divided by slots transforms matching the outer diameter of the coaxial internal conductor 205, and keeps a good contact state with the coaxial internal conductor 205 by its spring nature.
