Abstract :
RECTANGULAR loop magnetic materials and transistors used as switches have been combined to produce a simple, high-speed analogue divider. This device is capable of producing an output whose average voltage is the quotient, with the correct sign, of two input voltages. A preliminary model of this divider gives accuracies of ±2.5 per cent of full scale readings for a quotient range of 100 to 1 and input variations of both numerator and denominator of better than 10 to 1.
