Abstract :
This paper presents the general aspects of the component development program for the AN/FSQ-7 Air Defense Computer. The requirements of the system for high reliability and long life necessitate proper selection of the type of component, proper specification of the component to the manufacturer, and proper component application by the circuit design engineer. The component development program has made free use of ideas from the computer industry and the component industry.
