Binary logic circuits employing transformer and enhancement diode combination

Claim 1

AN IMPEDANCE SWITCH COMPRISING: ONE TRANSFORMER HAVING ONE PRIMARY WINDING AND ONE SECONDARY WINDING, SAID TRANSFORMER HAVING AND OPERATING ON THE SLOPE OF A SUBSTANTIALLY SLOPING CHARACTERISTIC CURVE WHICH EXHIBITS THE TRANSFORMER CHARACTERISTIC OF SUBSTANTIALLY NO RESIDUAL FLUX; A SEMICONDUCTOR BODY EXHIBITING SUBSTANTIAL ENHANCEMENT PROPERTIES COUPLED IN PARALLEL WITH SAID PRIMARY WINDING: A UNIDIRECTIONAL CURRENT CONDUCTING DEVICE EXHIBITING NEGLIGIBLE ENHANCEMENT PROPERTIES COUPLED IN SERIES OPPOSITION BETWEEN THE PRIMARY WINDING AND SAID BODY, HAVING ONE OF ITS TWO ELECTRODES COUPLED TO A LIKE ELECTRODE OF SAID BODY, AND HAVING A SECOND ELECTRODE COUPLED TO SAID PRIMARY WINDING; AND MEANS FOR COUPLING A BINARY FORWARD CURRENT THROUGH SAID BODY TO CAUSE RELATIVELY LARGE OR SUBSTANTIALLY NO ENHANCEMENT CHARGE IN SAID BODY FOR MAKING THE EFFECTIVE IMPEDANCE OF SAID TRANSFORMER RELATIVELY LOW OR RELATIVELY HIGH.
