Obviously I'm curious as to what they are -
can't be too complex with 10 pins
and given the period - but before I sit down with an ohmmeter and power supply
figured I might as well ask if anybody might know. (Sperry made a lot of
stuff, so it's too much to presume they were used in UNIVACs, but when did
UNIVACs move to ICs?)
For a while back in the 1960s, Univac was in the 2 1/2 generation,
like IBM with SLT. They used IC like things, but with all the logic
steering diodes external to the chip.
