Abstract :
A NEW FIELD of application for magnetic amplifiers is promised by the development of a signal amplitude discriminator. This signal-discriminating amplifier has the unique ability to select the largest of any number of signals and to amplify the selected signal in the normal way. The mechanics of the amplifier are described in this paper and typical measured values are discussed.
