Does anyone have any idea what this card is for?
<http://www.classiccmp.org/hp/mds-80/analog-d.jpg> When I picked it up I
thought it was a Multibus card but a closer look reveals that it's (1) too
tall, (2) too narrow, (3) The large connector at the bottom has 100
contacts instead of 86, (4) the narrow connector has 40 pins instead of 60
and it sticks down too far.
Any ideas?

It looks like an Analog input board, but the ADC may be missing, judging from
the location of the empty socket. The red or orange (maybe they're green ...
I'm "chromatically challenged") devices appear to be resistor arrays.
There's
a number on that board, and there's a name, i.e. Analog Devices. I'd try to
chase that down with them, if possible.
I've seen that shape of board before, but can't place it.

Actually, considering they look 'tall' and are labeled as K1, K11, etc,
I'd expect those to be relays. Considering the relays and the size of
the heatsinks on those TO-202/TO-220 looking devices, I'd anticipate the
board is some sort of control module.

I considered the possibility that they'd be relays, but the packages don't
look like any relay I've ever used. They look, both in shape and in color,
like lots of resistor networks I've used, however.
I'd suspect that Analog Devices might have some information, though.

You can try goingt to www.analog.com and go to the tech support site, select
obsolete products (I'm assuming this is obsolete) and click the "contact
technical support" and ask them what model LTS-1201, partnumber 01-7000600
is and if they have any ratholed data they could fax/email to you.
