The GALAXY computer is a large, high speed, general
purpose, digital computer intended to be used for solving
scientific problems. It requires a random access memory
system of 16,384 words of 59 bits each with a cycle time
of one microsecond or less. A memory system capable of
meeting these...
The performance of certain high-gain amplifiers, such
as those used in null detectors, can be greatly improved
by using a nonlinear element in a feedback loop. With the
addition of nonlinear feedback, it is possible to obtain
an amplifier that can handle a large dynamic range of input
signals without...
The chopper-stabilized operational amplifier has good low
frequency noise properties. Unfortunately a simple technique for
simulation of the chopper-stabilized operational amplifier has
not been available.
This thesis describes the implementation of a differential
amplifier using chopper stabilization and its circuit modeling
for the SPICE simulation. This circuit has been designed...
This paper is concerned with the determination of
gallium arsenide resistivity by measurement of attenuation of microwave energy at 7500 megacycles transmitted
through a slice.
The first section of this paper describes gallium
arsenide properties as compared to silicon, germanium,
silicon carbide, and diamond. A description is then
given of...
This thesis presents some experimental results for
producing controlled PN and NPN diffused structures in
silicon by varying the strength of the diffusion sources.
Boron diffusions were carried out in a N₂ atmosphere at
1200°C with 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% B₂0₃ in silicic acid as
sources. Phosphorus diffusions were...
Wideband tunnel-diode amplifiers using common-base
transistor stages for isolation were investigated for
stability criteria, frequency response, and the effects
of temperature and voltage supply fluctuations. For the
first time the full frequency spectrum of a tunnel-diode,
from d-c to the gigahertz (GHz) range, was able to be
utilized in an...
