  • Abstract
    A transistor-driven magnetic-core store which has a capacity of 4096 words, each of 37 bits, has been developed for a large transistorized computing system. The paper describes a system in which the drive currents are generated in a central generator, and address selection is achieved by transistor gating circuits. A typical store cycle¿reading followed immediately by writing¿requires 12 microsec with random access.
