This SLC-8280 makes use of a design similiar to the SLC-8260 introduced already in 1978 but uses a sliding switch to select between DEG/RAD/GRAD and switch the calculator permanent OFF.
The
internal design of the SLC-8280 is almost identical to the SLC-8260. The printed
circuit board was manufactured by Sansyu,
a well know company since we dismantled some TI-1750
calculators.
The Toshiba T3941
calculator chip found inside the
SLC-8280 is known from both the
Canon card F-42
and
the Radio Shack EC-476.
Don't miss the SLC-8290WA
adding some metric conversion functions, a clock with two alarm-times and a
stopwatch.
