The SS-3007 ADVANCED ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING Solid State Software Cartridge (SSSC) was developed by Texas Instruments for its CC-40 Compact Computer System and contains 10 easy-to-use programs chosen to serve a broad range of advanced electrical engineering applications:
• Active Filters • Bode/Nyquist • Roots of a Polynomial • Discrete Fourier Transform • Network Analysis • Passive Lowpass Filters • Phase-locked Loops • Series/Parallel Conversion • Signal Detection • S ↔ Y,Z,H,G Parameter Conversions |
Dismantling a Solid State Software Cartridge manufactured
in July 1983 by Texas Instruments in their Abilene, Texas facility, reveals a small printed circuit board (PCB) with
a HN61256P ROM (Read-Only Memory) manufactured by Hitachi, Japan.
The HN61256P
uses a CMOS process resulting in a very low power consumption of 7.5 mW and
features a capacity of 32k Bytes with an access time of 3.5 us.
