So I came across 9 of these chips in some very old scrap - my reading suggests that they are ram... but information on them seems scarce.

What have I found?

Simply too many pins for RAM, in 1972 there wasn't even 4Kilobit ones.
It's not mentioned in Mostek IC Guide, may be custom chip.

Should be 256 bit SRAM, 64x4, PMOS, +5V and -9V supply.

Why so many pins for 256 bit?

The whole cache of "old stuff" is quite interesting. I found some Intel SDK-51 and SDK-85 boards, a whole tube of intel 8035 chips... a crap-ton of eproms (C1702A)...

I'm giving a lot of this to a local computer museum... they're salivating over the SDK boards. Smile

I bet they are. What a lucky museum and what a generous person you are.

Oh yeah, I'm awesome - just ask me. Smile

Seriously though, the boards are worth a couple hundred each - tops - so it's just not worth my while to try and sell them, when I can give them to museum.
