Hmm... nice list. There are some East German missing. I will take pictures for you, when I have time Smile

The Z8600 clone series is much larger and some of the depicted CPUs are not made by MME, but by FWE (Funkwerk Erfurt), a predecassor by MME. And there are more Fabs: ZMD (Zentrum für Mikroelektronik Dresden), HFO (Halbleiterwerk Frankfurt/Oder) and Carl Zeiss Jena, world famous for optics and today manufacturer of clean room equipment.

The East German logo's:



1. VEB Halbleiterwerk Frankfurt / Oder

2. VEB Mikroelektronik "Karl Marx" Erfurt

3. VEB Forschungszentrum Mikroelektronik Dresden

4. VEB Zentrum für Forschung und Technologie Mikroelektronik Dresden

5. Carl Zeiss Jena

MME = VEB Mikroelektronik Karl Marx Erfurt

FWE = VEB Funkwerke Erfurt

UWR = VEB Uhrenwerke Ruhla

ZMD = Zentrum Mikroelektronik Dresden des Kombinats Carl Zeiss Jena

The ZMD still exists (http://www.zmd.de). At our university we use a former ZMD-machine for engineering purposes Smile

The GDR was also famous for vacuum tubes. Nearly the whole world production of the EL34 was made here. Read this: http://www.jogis-roehrenbude.de/EL34-Story/EL34-Story.htm

FWE made U880D and U808D. FWE chips are hard to get, because these are very old in the most cases.

You could add the datecode decoding table for GDR chips.
