I have some Synertek 2650-P-01 (date code 7720) that
are definitely *not* 2650 CPUs, along with some
AMI 1315-P-2 (seems to be some kind of keyboard
encoder). They come from some old Courier 270
display terminals. So what's a 2650-P-01 ?
Synertek made character generator chips (really mask ROM)
and LSI video scan generators that commonly appeared
in 70's devices. Doesn't help narrow down what was
in that terminal, but the point is they did a lot of stuff
for that market (including CPU's in the first microprocessor
terminals).
Didn't somebody from that era at Synertek talk at VCF
East last year?
