Fuse and switch functions combined within a single housing

Fuswitch provides both switch and fuse functions within a single housing. A mercury capillary is used to alternately vaporize and condense the mercury within a reservoir. The housing is impervious to mercury and the fuse portion of the device operates on the principle of the self-healing mercury fuse.

Constant-voltage drive current-steering switch

Two-element voltage control system regulates a magnetic switch consisting of dual ferrite-core shift registers. The system has a magnetic, two-core-per-bit, voltage-controlled shift register.

Caplette, R. K.↗

P-I-N diode switch

Solid state switches use the same voltage and power supply as the RF amplifier. This simplifies circuit design and reduces input power requirements.

Vanek, C. S.↗

Solid state bistable power switch

Tin and copper provide high current and switching time capabilities for high-current resettable fuses. They show the best performance for trip current and degree of reliability, and have low coefficients of thermal expansion.

Signal phase switches offer greater dynamic range

Circuit, placed in the signal path of a closed-loop receiver to modulate telemetered data in the 10-MHz spectrum, improves signal-to-noise ratio by 3 db in a communication receiver. The switch enables bandwidth reduction which reduces noise overload on the following stages, giving the system greater dynamic range.

Bistable fluidic valve is electrically switched

Bistable control valve is selectively switched by direct application of an electrical field to divert fluid from one output channel to another. Valve is inexpensive, has no moving parts, and operates on fluids which are relatively poor electrical conductors.
