Hi;

Can anyone identify these chips and if they are of any interest?

Thanks.

Isn't the Mullard brand name from these British vacuum tubes? Confused

Mullard was also a maker of early chips, became or was purchased by Phillips, i cant find anything on the other 'gold' part, finding so many strange old parts as i go through the back of our warehouse...

I did not know Mullard made chips! They are primarily known for their tubes -- but they did make a magnetic core memory stack for the Elliot 803 [an English computer], so at one point it would seem they were looking to move beyond tubes.

Just checked wikipedia, which says Mullard made semiconductors as early as the 1950's. They were eventually bought by Phillips, who used the name Mullard on products in the U.K. until 1988.
