Glad you like the material John and thanks for the battery tip!! I'll be doing a lot of updates on the information within the next 48 hours; i.e putting more organized and easier navigation for everything on the site  _________________ http://www.RareCPUs.com

There's also a board I'm having trouble identifying, which is the 6th image of today's update (bottom right).
It looks like a calculator board with the display screen missing. |

Is that what it is?? I figured it was a memory slot instead of a screen connector. Makes much more sense as a calculator like you said, thanks  _________________ http://www.RareCPUs.com

About the 5 HP CPU board, there aren't any kind of part number?
this board was a NS-1, NS-2 or PCX CPU board, a very early HP PA-RISC processor
there are 3 missing (desoldered?) chip, the FPC (floating point coprocessor) and 2 small FP chips (MUL/DIV and ADD/SUB)
other 5 are CPU (may be the only different chip), SIU (system interface unit), two CCUs (cache controller units, split into instruction and data — ICCU and DCCU) and TCU (TLB controller unit)
nice board! |

About the chip you called "unknown Raytheon Prototype chip"
May be it's a RAD6000 CPU
why?
has the same part number like an IBM engineering chip for sale on Ebay (52088) so this Lockheed Martin and the IBM chip are related but not the same chip because the different package (one rectangular and one squared)
IBM Federal Systems was sold to Loral, later sold to Lockheed Martin and currently a part of BAE Systems
looks at the photo and you can see your chip has the same package like the RAD6000 (rectangular) IBM chips looks like the Signal voltage converter
... it's only a supposition ..... |

Doccy, Mirco and I have these same HP CPU chips that were taken from 3 similar HP boards last spring. They were identified as PA-RISC 7000's, which are very early chips in the PA-RISC family.
Great find!  |

Good information! On the 5 CPU HP board, I found a sticker in the box I was storing it in and I believe it belongs to it: A1700-60004 USA, 3139 A-3138 (2 of 3). And it could very well be a RAD6000. Thanks a bunch, I'll update it in a bit  _________________ http://www.RareCPUs.com
