A 2.5-megacycle ferractor accumulator

Abstract

Investigations of magnetic amplifiers at high frequencies indicate that reliable operation with a power gain of about three or four is possible at an information frequency of 2.5 megacycles using series pulse-type magnetic amplifiers. A unit employing several cores was constructed in order to gain experience in packaging and with operating problems at this frequency. Before going into a description of the unit itself a short explanation of the operation of the magnetic cores is given.
