The successor to the 702 in the 700 / 7000 series was the IBM 705, which marked the transition to magnetic core memory.
32.
The electronics included a simple 16-bit minicomputer, and 8-16 kilobytes of magnetic core memory, and a display processor for driving CRT beam movements.
33.
Fast storage was 1024 40-bit words of magnetic core memory ( cycle time 5�s ), directly addressable as 1024 full or 2048 half-words.
34.
In the early 1960s, Hewitt Crane and his colleagues developed the world's first all-magnetic digital computer, based upon extensions to magnetic core memories.
35.
In 1952 Vaughan became a supervisor in Bell Labs'Switching Research Department, leading studies on transistor, ferroelectric, and magnetic core memories in logic systems.
36.
Wang calculators cost in the mid-four-figures, used Nixie tube readouts, performed transcendental functions, had varying degrees of programmability, and exploited magnetic core memory.
37.
Magnetic core memory was the standard form of memory system until displaced by solid-state memory in integrated circuits, starting in the early 1970s.
38.
Drums were displaced as primary computer memory by magnetic core memory which was faster ( no moving parts ), less expensive and more dense.
39.
At the end of those months he had invented the basics of magnetic core memory and demonstrated that it was likely to be feasible.
40.
The Solid State circuitry of a GE 312 computer was composed of 2500 diodes, 2500 transistors, and 12, 000 resistors, but no magnetic core memory.
