A homebrew dinner-plate-sized magnetic core memory USB storage device has been used to transfer a text file from one PC to another for the first time. In what is “maybe the world’s first” [machine ...

IIIF provides researchers rich metadata and media viewing options for comparison of works across cultural heritage collections. Visit the IIIF page to learn more. When researchers at the Massachusetts ...

Magnetic core memory turns 60 years old today, and as a tribute [Ben North and Oliver Nash] have created a 32-bit magnetic core memory board for the Arduino. Magnetic core memory was used from the ...

Magnetic storage devices, like a computer's hard disk drive, utilize magnets to represent binary data. However, as these devices are downsized, stray magnetic fields generated by individual magnetic ...

1. This chart indicates which type of memory requires the least equipment for a specific size memory. The internal memory is usually a major factor in controlling the overall system characteristics.

A team of researchers has proposed a new concept for magnet-based memory devices that might revolutionize information storage devices due to their potential for large-scale integration, non-volatility ...

Core memory, magnetized memory using tiny magnetic rings suspended on a grid of wires, is now more than five decades obsolete, yet it exerts a fascination for hardware hackers still. Not least [Andy ...

Using a specially engineered beam of light from an ultrafast laser, UC San Diego engineers demonstrate a new approach to ...

This iteration of Electronic Design: Now and Then was inspired when I was reading "Using Magnetic Cores in Computers" from our archives. This article was originally published in Electronic Design ...
