ABSTRACT:
A decoder clutching system for use in a minicomputer such as the Burroughs Series-L or TC-Series minicomputer is employed to reduce noise and extend the life of the decoder while minimizing power consumption. An electromagnetic master clutch is secured to a main motor which enables a decoder to be intermittently driven in response to decoder alert or command signals representing anticipated binary to decimal conversion by the decoder. The motor operates continuously so as to drive the decoder only when the electromagnetic master clutch is energized and to release the drive to the decoder when the master clutch is de-energized.
