The B198, B199, and B250 modules of the KA10 use ICs. First customer
shipments are claimed to have been in late 1967.

    B198 Protection Comparator (used in KT10, KT10A "memory protection and
relocation" options)

           panel 2MN slot 44, panel 2PR slot 5

           appears to be an 8-bit magnitude comparator
           prints drawn 6-18-68, checked 6/21/68, eng. approval 7/2/68
           5  74H00N
           2  74H40N
           4  74H50N
           1  74H53N
           2  74H55N

    B199 FM Address Decoder (used in KM10 "fast registers" option)
           panel 2KL slot 9

           acts as a 4-to-16 decoder (similar to 74154), but
               requires both true and complement inputs
           prints drawn 3-2-67, checked 4/?/67, eng. approval 7/6/67
           8  TI SN7440N or Fairchild 9009 (U6A900959X)

    B250 FM Module (used in KM10 "fast registers" option), 8 words by 6 bits
           panel 2KL slots 10-13, 15-18, 20-23
           prints drawn 3-2-67, checked 6/30/67, eng. approval 7/6/67
           6  Fairchild 9030 (U6A903059X)  4 word by 2 bit RAM chip, 45ns
write, 25ns read, 350mW
           13  TI SN7440N or Fairchild 9009 (U6A900959X)
