Abstract
The design and the performance of a fast iterative analog computer that is based on the use of pulse-ratio modulation representation is presented. The basic element employed in the design of the computing units of the computer is a pulse-ratio modulator. The solution of an eigenvalue problem by the computer is presented as an example of its applications. The results obtained agree well with analytical calculations.
