Abstract
A densely packed low weight, low volume, minimum temperature gradient memory array comprising a bilateral printed circuit board having a plurality of ferrite cores arranged in columns and rows mounted on one side and a plurality of integrated circuit diode flatpacks mounted on the other side. A ground plane comprising a thin metallic layer isolates the core plane from the mounting and also serves as a means for maintaining a minimum temperature gradient across the core plane. A heat conductor removes unwanted heat from the array, and the connections to elements of the array are grouped to reduce wiring runs.
