I was going over some old cables, and found a strange card in them.
It is marked C.A.V.I. interface and has a sticker that reads Cavri Systems.
There is a 1980 date etched on the board, and under the sticker it looks
like it says BCD Associates. There are seven chips on board, 2
DM7416N's a DM74LS14N, 2 Magnecraft W107DIP-5's, a Magnecraft W118DIP-5,
and a rockwell 6520-11. There are 6 outputs: Monitor V, Monitor A, Audio
Ch1 and 2, Player V and Computer V, and a nasty HRS rectangular locking plug.
I suspect it might be for an Apple II, but everything else was Wang or
System36, so it could be anything. Does anyone recognise this?
