Title: Memory apparatus
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1964-01-20
Abstract: 992,204. Digital data storage. SPERRY RAND CORPORATION. Jan. 20, 1964 [Jan. 30, 1963], No. 2327/64. Heading G4C. A data storage arrangement comprises two independently accessible data storage memories each storing the same information but in different locations, the first memory storing the sum without carries of a first word ("data" word) and a second word ("address" word) at an address defined by the second word, the second memory storing the said sum without carries at an address defined by the first word. The arrangement described comprises two 64 x 64 12-plane 3-dimensional magnetic core matrices 10, 12 each capable of storing 4,096 12-bit binary words. A storage operation involves two associated 12-bit words called "data word" D and "address word" A respectively, which are combined to form the sum without carries S = A # D (where # is the EXCLUSIVE OR Boolean operation). The address memory 10 stores S at location D and the data memory 12 stores S at location A. To extract a data word from the data memory 12, an address word A is applied to address the memory 12, the extracted word S being combined to form the sum without carries of S and A which is D since An address word is similarly extracted from the address memory 10 by addressing it with a data word. The arrangement is under the control of a 2-stage register 42 which according to its contents causes (1) a write operation, (2) read-out of the address memory, or (3) read-out of the data memory. (1) Write. Assuming that a 12-bit "data" word is applied on line 72 and a 12-bit "address" word on line 74, activation of line 46 by the control register 42 causes the data word to be transmitted to an "output" register 78 and to the address register 26 of the address memory 10; the address word being transmitted to an "input" register 82 and to the address register 28 of the data memory 12. The sum without carries of the contents of registers 78, 82 is then formed in an encoder 88 and applied to an inhibit circuit 38 so that during the "restore" part of the memory cycle, the sum without carries is written into both memories 10, 12. (2) Read out address memory. Activation of line 48 by the control register 42 causes a "data" word applied to line 72 to be applied to the input register 82 and to the address memory address register 26. During the "read" part of the memory cycle, the addressed information is read out from the memory 10 and applied via amplifiers 36 to be combined with the contents of the register 82 in a circuit 86 which forms the sum without carries of the two inputs thereto, which sum is entered in the register 78 and is the required address word as explained above. The contents of the registers 78, 82 are combined at 88 to form their sum without carries so that during the "restore" part of the memory cycle the same data is entered back into the address memory 10 as was read out therefrom. (3) Read out data memory. This operation is controlled by a signal on line 50 and is similar to (2) except that the "data" memory 12 is addressed instead of the "address" memory 10.

Title: Frequency selective damping circuits for use in ac power systems
IPC: H02H9/00
Filed: 1973-01-17
Abstract: 1450931 Electrical transmission systems ASSOCIATED ELECTRICAL INDUSTRIES Ltd 9 Jan 1974 [17 Jan 1973] 2423/73 Heading H2H An A.C. power supply system wherein supply lines interconnect two A.C. systems so as to provide local feeding lines is provided with frequency selective damping circuits so arranged that normal supply frequency currents are relatively undamped but currents of frequencies above or below the supply frequency receive maximum damping. An A.C. supply system comprises, for each phase an interconnection between two systems Nos. 1, 2 having three stations A1, A2, A3 each of which feeds a local feeder 3. At each station a voltage compensating circuit is provided comprising a saturable reactor L and a capacitor C in series between the interconnection and neutral. In order to damp parasitic oscillations which occur when loads are removed from the system a frequency selective damping filter is associated with the capacitor C, which filter may take two basic forms, either a resistor in parallel with the capacitor or a resistor in series with the capacitor. In the parallel arrangement the capacitor C is in parallel with the resistor R which is itself in series with a capacitor C S  and a circuit comprising an inductor L D  and a capacitor C D  which is parallel resonant at the supply frequency. Thus currents at the supply frequency flow via the capacitor C and are thus not damped whereas currents at other frequencies flow via the resistor R and receive high damping. If desired the capacitor C S  may be placed in parallel with the resistor R. In the series arrangement the resistor R is in series with the capacitor C, the resistor being paralleled by an inductor L P  and a circuit L D C D  resonant at the supply frequency. Such a circuit functions in a manner similar to the previous arrangement. Various other modifications of these circuits are described, in some of which the resistor R is associated with both a capacitor and an inductor so as to provide damping at both harmonic and sub-harmonic frequencies. If desired the saturable reactor L may be tapped and the damping circuit connected across the capacitor C and the reactor tapping.
