Abstract
The design and development of the rotational speed control for SNAP II has progressed to the point where experimental results have confirmed the present breadboard design approach. Frequency is controlled within ± 1% and all functional control specifications of the SNAP II system have been met. High temperature component testing has shown that basic components are available for operation at elevated temperatures (350°C) in most areas. High temperature diodes are still not available.
