Abstract
As a result of decisions to perform all logical operations in germanium diode circuits, all storage in delay lines and only amplification in tubes, there has been developed a digital computer circuitry whose high degree of standardization offers several advantages. Manufacturing, stocking replacements, and troubleshooting are simplified by having only two types of plug-in packages; moreover very thorough engineering study of these circuits was feasible. The possibilities for constructing logical functions are completely general and each tube can drive gate circuits associated with 14 others.
