Hi,
Someone's just given me a Commodore Minuteman 3MW (model MM3MW) calculator.
The device itself is working fine, but I still need to replace the battery
pack and charge connector (the batteries were rechargeable nicad, N size).
Anyway, just to satisfy my curiosity, I'd like to get some data on the ICs
used inside it - these are:
LC1552B / 7438 - looks like the main controller. Has some strange logo I've
never seen before - kind of a _/- (a squared off S?) with a circle
printed over the top.
ITT / 492-5 / 7445 - these appear to be LED drivers. I've never seen a part
number like this. BTW, the "7445" is printed vertically, the rest of the
p/n is printed horizontally (as normal).
NSA298 / NS 436 - the "NS" looks a LOT like one of National
Semiconductor's
old logos. Did NatSemi ever make LED display panels?
Now, to finish satisfying my curiosity, does anyone know anything about the
Commodore MM3MW? A schematic diagram or service manual would be nice :)
Thanks.
