Paula Gordon<p>Anyone here interested in possessing this Texas Instruments TI-5130 Electronic Calculator? It works! (As far as I can tell, I'm no mathematician) I might even have a roll of printer paper that will fit.<br><a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/TexasInstruments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TexasInstruments</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/TI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TI</span></a>-5230 <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/ElectronicCalculator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ElectronicCalculator</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>retrocomputing</span></a></p>
David Hembrow<p>One small part of the oven stayed behind. It had a timer module using a nice old-fashioned green vacuum fluorescent display, so I removed that in case I can think of a use for it in the future. At the very least I thought it'd contain a relay that I could perhaps use.</p><p>It turns out that the relays operate on 24 V, which isn't great for me. But my favourite part in the timer is the TMS1070. This is part of the TMS1000 family of processors used in a lot of calculators in the 1970s. It's a four bit embedded processor with 1 kB of masked ROM and 64 nibbles (half bytes) of RAM.</p><p>The TMS1070 variant of the chip switch the higher voltages used by vacuum fluorescent displays, which is of course required in this example.</p><p>There's a bit more information about the TMS1070 here:<br><a href="http://www.datamath.org/Chips/TMS1070.htm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://www.</span><span class="">datamath.org/Chips/TMS1070.htm</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>You'll note the 1990 date code (the oven was 34 years old). I also have another digital clock with a TMS1000 derivative in it dated 1976. It's been powered up pretty much full time since then and still works perfectly:<br><a href="https://hembrow.eu/electronics/profordsdc18.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">hembrow.eu/electronics/proford</span><span class="invisible">sdc18.html</span></a><br><a href="https://todon.eu/tags/electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>electronics</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/tms1000" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tms1000</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/texasinstruments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>texasinstruments</span></a></p>
retrofinds<p>I’m hoping a TI-99 fan can help me a bit with what this one is: Texas Instruments TI-99 PHP1270 P-Code Ver 4.0 Module for $32.88 currently. Auction ends in about 3 days. Near as I can tell this runs Pascal and other code compiled to an intermediate language called P-Code, but beyond that I haven’t found out much info.</p><p><a href="https://www.shopgoodwill.com/Item/199007207" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">shopgoodwill.com/Item/19900720</span><span class="invisible">7</span></a></p><p><a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/GoodWill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GoodWill</span></a> <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/auction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>auction</span></a> <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/TexasInstruments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TexasInstruments</span></a> <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/TI99" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TI99</span></a> <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/RetroComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RetroComputing</span></a> <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/VintageTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VintageTech</span></a></p>
