Abstract

1,078,580. Digital computers; magnetic storage devices. NATIONAL CASH REGISTER CO. Dec. 17, 1965 [Jan. 18, 1965], No. 53612/65. Headings G4A and G4C. A digital electric computer comprising a central processing unit, a magnetic memory and a timing unit operates in a series of operating cycles in which the timing unit defines a first two-step memory cycle wherein a word is read from, and restored into, the memory and, if required, a second two-step memory cycle in which a storage location in the memory is cleared in the first step and a word is written therein in the second step, the logical operation of the central processing unit being performed, in each operating cycle, simultaneously with the second step of the first memory cycle. Thin-film magnetic memory.-(Figs. 5A, 5B, not shown). The memory used is essentially the same as the memory described in Specification 1,035,870, five words, each of 12 bits plus a parity bit being read out in parallel and any of the five words not being required being masked off and returned to their original storage positions. Timing circuit.-(Figs. 2A, 2B, 3, not shown). The timing pulses are essentially produced by tapped delay lines (44-49) an initial pulse (C) being produced by AND and OR gates under the appropriate conditions being applied to the commencement of the delay lines. A further tapped delay line (43) connected to an AND gate (25) to which is also connected the input to the delay line serves to prevent spurious noise pulses from starting the timing unit. An AND gate (41) partway through the delay lines (44-49) serves to terminate the cycle at the end of the first two-step cycle or allows the second two-step cycle to be produced in succession as received. Commands.-Commands may be single address or double address types comprising two or four words. Implicit addressing, where the second word is the operand, direct addressing where the second word is the address, or relative addressing, where the address is the contents of the second word plus a specified index register are possible. Operation-(Figs. 1A, 1B, 1C and 3, not shown). Each system cycle is initiated by the clock pulse C, which also clears the read and write registers for the main memory and an auxiliary » scratch-pad » memory. At the beginning an R-R cycle is a period in which the address of the storage location to be accessed is decoded and then two periods R, R for reading and restoration respectively. Any remaining periods in a cycle are used to allow the sense amplifiers of the memories to recover. A C-W cycle includes a decode period and two periods C, W for clearing and writing in the storage location whose address has been decoded. The logical equations governing the various operations in accordance with the settings of appropriate control transistor flip-flops and progamme counters are described.
