An old-fashioned triode vacuum tube does that using a voltage applied to its grid electrode. Researchers soon constructed what was called core memory from dense grids of magnetic cores. Apollo Guidance Computer were built with core transistor logic, but in 1962 the designers at MIT made a risky switch to integrated circuits.
