A
battery operated printer made for the TI-74,
TI-74S and TI-95
products.
Dismantling
the PC-324 reveals a clean design centered around a TMC70016 microcontroller.
The TMC70016 is
a member of the TMS7000 family that was
introduced in 1981 as an extension of the
TMS1000 to
compete with the successful Intel i8051, Motorola M6801, and Zilog Z8
microcontrollers.
