Abstract
An apparatus for controllable propagation of magnetic domains, or bubbles, through an arrangement of closely spaced magnetic propagating elements arranged in an input stage, a strip-former stage, and a decoder stage. Binary logic circuitry results from selective control of bubble movement through alternate paths of elements, with at least one of said paths producing a domain strip extending the full height of the strip-former stage. The decoder stage includes a propagating element spaced apart from the strip-former stage a distance sufficient to prevent propagation of all domains in the strip-former stage except for the full-height strip.
