ODRA-1003 UNIVERSAL DIGITAL COMPUTER,
Abstract
A compact, transistorized, universal digital computer, using printed circuits, is described. While mainly used for scientific computations, it can be adapted for process control by means of a special analog-to-digital converter. The ODRA-1003 is a binary, fixed and floating point, cyclic machine. It contains 7 index registers and its memory consists of a magnetic drum with 8192 40-bit word capacity. It performs about 1500 fixed point additions per sec, 850 floating point additions, and 350 floating or fixed point multiplications of divisions per sec. The input devices are a photoelectric paper tape reader (300 symbols per sec) or a teletype. The output consists of a paper tape perforator (150 symbols per sec) and a teletype. ODRA-1003 works with 3 programming languages: (1) Main language, consisting of pseudocommands. (2) Symbolic addresses language, consisting of commands coded by 5 octal numbers each. (3) Autocode MOST-1, structurally related to ALGOL-60.
