Abstract :
IN CONNECTION with the development of military communications equipment for field application, a set of electrical and mechanical requirements was established for a regulated power supply for battery charging and floating service which was particularly unusual for equipment of this type. Mechanically, a portable unit was required with the size and weight to be kept to a minimum. At the same same, extreme ruggedness and reliability were necessary to meet the rough treatment anticipated in field operation.
