We went through this tradeoff on the E1938A. Resistive heaters
can be distributed. However, it is very inefficient to drive
them with transistors, because then you waste a lot of power
heating the transistors, which is waste heat if resistive heating
is used. Prior to the 10544, they just put up

Hi Tom:
Very interesting. How about building a circuit to drive those GR crystals?
The same man is the inventor of all four of the early GR patents, James Kilton

At HP, in the 90's, we did a lot of brainstorming about vacuum ovens.
This never seemed to make sense to us. If you actually
achieve high amounts of thermal resistance, then you can't
get the heat out of the oven. And if you d

The 10811 has an ANALOG oven control loop. The gain is set
to be just below the oscillation point. This is due to the
stability limits dictated by the oven mass and (believe it
or not) the size of integrator capacitor that can

Maybe because it was written back in 1930's, but one of the better

I am not trying to start an argument, but I would like to point out
