Abstract:

An arming programmer having a magnetic core decade divider as the basic functional block has been designed for the Copperhead fuze system. The maximum time that can be programmed is 100 sec with a maximum timing error of 0.1 sec. In addition to a firing pulse at T-0.0 sec, five output pulses at fixed times relative to T-0.0 are provided to initiate circuitry in the system. The timer has the capability of remote setting and once set does not require power for memory. Author
