Abstract :
ACCORDING TO THE simple approximate theory for self-saturating magnetic amplifiers, a plot of output versus control current for these amplifiers has the shape of the left-hand portion of the hysteresis loop of the core material. Maximum amplification thus calls for the use of a core material having a rectangular hysteresis loop.
