The
Exactra 22 is yet another member in the Exactra line from
Texas Instruments. Compared to the Exactra 21 you'll notice an additional
connector for an external power supply.
Dismantling
the Exactra 22 revealed a small surprise, the LED-display found in this
particular calculator was manufactured by Bowmar. We know the Opto-Stick display
with its small numbers already from the TI-2500B. Don't miss an overview of all
Exactra Calculator LED Displays.
The
printed circuit board (PCB) of the Exactra 22 seems to use similar schematics as
the Exactra 21 but a different layout to accommodate the extra power connector.
Don't miss the Exactra 23 loaded with all features.
