about a dozen interesting looking chips, which are
labled: MK4116E-3
This appear to be a 9-pin DIP ceramic carrier with
two smaller chips mounted on-top - each of the smaller
chips has the MK4116E-3 designation. The smaller chips
also have 9 pins, however they are not DIP but rather in
a 4, 5, 4, 5 arrangement all the way around the device.
Anyone recognize these? My guess is some sort of RAM
(dynamic)? Clearly not the same as a standard 4116 DRAM.
Are there any other markings on them? I remember once seeing some Mostek
'chips' like these that had 2 off 4164s on top, and were essentially 128K
bit DRAMs (separate CAS signals to the 2 halves IIRC).
I wondef if you've found a 32K bit version made from 2 off 4116s.
