Transfluxor

In this article, we will explore the impact of Transfluxor on various aspects of today's society. From its influence on technology to its effects on popular culture, Transfluxor has captured the attention of millions of people around the world. Through in-depth analysis, we will examine how Transfluxor has shaped our lives and caused significant changes in our perception of the world. Since its emergence, Transfluxor has sparked passionate debates and has been the subject of countless investigations, leading us to reflect on its relevance in the contemporary context.

A transfluxor was a specialised type of magnetic core memory element in which each core had two holes, one for writing and another for reading. It had the unusual property that a core's state could be read without erasing it.[1][2] In addition to binary data, transfluxors could also store analog values, with no need to drive them into core saturation.[3][4]

The technology is described in U.S. patent 3048828.[5]

Transfluxors were used in the ARMA Micro Computer.[1]
