With the TMC05xx building blocks Texas Instruments created a novel architecture for scalable scientific calculators. The architecture uses minimum a 2 chip design with the Arithmetic chip TMC0501E and the SCOM (Scanning Read Only Memory) but was expandable to a maximum of 8 SCOMs, additional RAM as program memory for programmable calculators, additional RAM for general purpose registers and even a chip driving a printer.
The TMC0583 Double Scanning Read Only Memory DSCOM contains 2.5k*13 instruction memory and 16*16 digits constants.
The scanning function is not used with the known calculators.
