These interesting beasties came from an early 1970s Burroughs mainframe... Note the four ferrite cores (toroidal transformers) housed in a 16-pin plastic DIP package. I'd be interested to know if anyone has any info on them.

I agree, that is pretty cool Very Happy

I love the transition between old vacuum-this and magneto-that tech and new micro-something tech; as well as the shoehorning of each technology into the other!
