 | Features |
With the TMC05xx building blocks Texas Instruments created a novel architecture for scalable scientific calculators. The architecture uses minimum a 2 chip design with the Arithmetic chip TMC0501E and the SCOM (scanning read only memory) but was expandable to a maximum of 8 SCOM's, additional RAM as program memory for programmable calculators, additional RAM for general purpose registers and even a chip driving a printer.
The up to four TMC0598 MULTI-REGISTER chips provide user program storage and user memory storage in the TI-58 and TI-59. Each chip contains 1920 bits of read/write memory holding either 240 program steps or 30 data registers.
