Demonstrations-Analogrechner mit Röhren

An 8-page German technical description (dated 21 August 2010) by F. Vogel of a small home-built vacuum-tube demonstration analog computer. The machine uses 10 tubes (4× 6U8, 3× EAA91, 3× OA2), operates at ±50 V machine unit with +300/−150 V supplies, and provides four computing amplifiers (two integrators/summers, one summer, one open amplifier/inverter), three coefficient potentiometers, a piecewise-linear diode function generator for y = −x², two free diodes, reference voltage sources, and a panel meter. Circuit design for the amplifiers is derived from the Heath EC-1 educational analog computer.
