INVESTIGATING THE EFFICIENCY OF A CYLINDRICAL, MAGNETIC-FILM ELEMENT FOR USE IN AN ASSOCIATIVE MEMORY,

Abstract

Results of a study of the drive-current tolerances of a plated-wire magnetic-film element for an associative memory are presented. The operating region is calculated theoretically using a method developed by O. V. Rosnitskiy. A linear approximation is used for the boundary between the regions of drift and stable recording, and the effect of adjacent elements and control wires is ignored. The operating region is represented as a set of solutions of a system of linear inequalities. Experiments are performed with elements made by depositing Permalloy film 1-1.5 mu thick on wire 0.2 mm in diameter of BrB2 beryllium bronze. The five-turn coils were of PEV-2 wire 0.07 mm in diameter. The experimentally determined stability region makes it possible to ascertain the rated drive currents and their tolerances. (Author)
