Magnetic core matrices

Claim 1

A SWITCHING CORE MATRIX COMPRISING A PLURALITY OF MAGNETIC CORES HAVING TWO STABLE STATES OF MAGNETIZATION ELECTRICALLY ARRANGED IN ROWS AND COLUMNS, A PLURALITY OF ROW DRIVING COILS EACH INDUCTIVELY COUPLED TO ALL OF THE CORES OF A DIFFERENT ROW, A PLURALITY OF COLUMN DRIVING COILS EACH INDUCTIVELY COUPLED TO ALL OF THE CORES OF A DIFFERENT COLUMN, A COMMON COIL INDUCTIVELY COUPLED TO ALL OF THE CORES OF SAID MATRIX, SAID COLUMN DRIVING COILS HAVING A POLARITY TO GENERATE M.M.F. IN SAID CORES IN ONE DIRECTION WHEN POSITIVE CURRENTS ARE APPLIED THERETO, MEANS TO ADD THE CURRENT SIMULTANEOUSLY APPLIED TO SAID COLUMN DRIVING COILS INTO A SINGLE LARGE CURRENT AND TO APPLY SAID SINGLE LARGE CURRENT TO SAID COMMON COIL IN A POLARITY TO GENERATE M.M.F. IN SAID CORES IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION FROM SAID ONE DIRECTION, MEANS CONNECTING SAID ROW DRIVING COILS TOGETHER AND TO A REFERENCE POTENTIAL AT ONE END, SAID COLUMN DRIVING COILS EACH COMPRISING WINDINGS ON SAID CORES, SAID COMMON COIL COMPRISING A WINDING ON EACH OF SAID CORES, THE TURNS RATIO OF THE WINDINGS COMPRISING SAID COLUMN COILS TO THE WINDINGS COMPRISING SAID COMMON COIL BEING NOT GREATER THAN N-1, N BEING THE NUMBER OF COLUMNS IN SAID MATRIX.
