With
the Super Speak & line Texas Instruments introduced educational toys similar
to the well known kids-computers with there small LCD-screens and
ASCII-keyboards. From the technical aspect this Super Speak & Mathl uses a
standard voice synthesizer chip (TSP50C10) with an
external Speech ROM (TSP60C18) and some external components. The
same technology was found in late Super Speak
