DATAMATH CALCULATOR MUSEUM |
With the original TMS1000 Microcomputer mainly intended for designs using power-hungry LED displays with external display drivers, uses the TMS1070 redesigned output drivers for the 11 R Outputs (Display Scan) and 8 O Outputs (Segments) that can withstand voltages up to -35 Volts and hence allows direct operation of low-voltage Vacuum Fluorescent Displays (VFDs). All other specifications are identical with the earlier (-15 Volts) standard TMS1000 devices.

The Datamath Calculator Museum DCM-50A (Platform) supports the TMS1070 Product Family directly with the TMS1000 Textool Test Socket set to DCM-50A (TMS1000) mode and patching (swapping) of Pin 20 and Pin 21. Both Characterization of TMS1000 Calculator Circuits and Reverse-engineering of TMS1000 Calculator Circuits is supported by the DCM-50A (TMS1000).

The original TMS1070 was manufactured in a 8 um metal gate PMOS process (metal width = 0.30 mil / 8.0 um, metal spacing = 0.35 mil / 9.0 um, diffusion width = 0.25 mil / 6.0 um, diffusion spacing = 0.35 mil / 9.0 um).
The die size of the TMS1070 is approximately 210 mils * 210 mils / 5.3 mm * 5.3 mm.
The TMS1070 uses either a 0.6” wide 28-pin DIP (Plastic Dual In-line Package with a 0.1” / 2.54 mm lead pitch)
or a 0.4” wide 28-pin SPDIP (Shrink Plastic Dual In-line Package with a 0.07” / 1.778 mm lead pitch).

In a typical calculator application the digits of the display are connected with drivers to the
scanning R Outputs, the segments of the display are connected directly to the O Outputs making use of the
provided 5 to 8 PLA to decode the segments, and the keyboard matrix is connected
between the K Inputs and R Outputs.
