Texas Instruments calculators from the 1970s. TI-1250, TI-1200, SR-50A, SR-11, the TI Programmer, and the TI-59 programmable.
This is a Digital Baseband Processor designed by Texas Instruments in 2004. It was most likely contained in a Sony Ericsson Z520a cell phone.
This chip was incredibly difficult to identify, I only had portions of the main board and google did not return anything immediately. The only thing I was able to find which documented this chip was this page:
electronics360.globalspec.com/article/3300/sony-ericsson-...
It says:
"DBB - Digital Baseband Processor - Texas Instruments - 751979BIZ"
As far as I can tell this chip has no publicly available data sheet.
This is a full scale JPG compressed to be less than 200MB. I did not use white-balancing on this image, I'm not sure if it was sharpened though.

One of the more fun of the TI electronic 'board-games'.
Science Camp – Week One:
We started off our Summer Camp season with our Science Summer Camp for girls. What a great week of learning and fun experiments! With our fearless leader, Jennifer Stimpson, teaching for our Science Camp we had a blast.
The girls had an opportunity to learn about the periodic table and conduct experiments that helped reinforce what they were learning. The campers also learned about four Scientists in our “Mystery Scientist” challenge in which they were given clues to figure out who their scientist’s were. After finding their mystery scientist, each team created a skit to teach others about their scientist, which they presented on Friday for museum staff and parents. The campers also had the opportunity to make homemade Shea butter lotion, the differences in penny materials, see an IMAX film about prehistoric sea creatures, tour the museum, and much more...
Convair CV240-1 N240HH at the Planes of Fame Museum, Chino California on the 20th October 1996.
Built in 1948 with c/n 47 this old bird was used for trials work with Texas Instruments before being retired to Chino.
Since this shot was taken she was been reconfigured with a standard 240 nose and painted up to represent a 'Western Air Lines' machine from the 1950's.

I just found this at a yard sale and of course had to put a battery in and play. It's such a great way to refresh one's math skills!
Every Texas Instrument IC I have opened so far uses copper connection points. This has been a serious pain for me because these connections are much harder to melt and detach from the plastic package. These ones in particular are much thicker than normal, even after I got it detached from the package, the copper traces were STILL connected and the chip was hanging on for dear life. I had to manually break them, which leaves large sections of the wires protruding from the surface of the die. This makes cleaning a nightmare, and it confuses my camera's focus.
The remaining debris you see are mostly plastic residue - which I cannot remove due to the darn copper wires!
Texas Instrument's website describes this as a "3A Dual Channel Synchronous Step-Down Switcher with Integrated FET". I have no idea what that means, so here is the data sheet www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tps54394.pdf
I believe this is some sort of power delivery IC and as the name suggests it is capable of handling 3 amps, which would explain the relatively large wires.

Bought new from a parts distributor. Was curious to see the differences between 2-Input and 3-Input gates.
I also bought 4-Input Gates and some other gate types but TI seems to have switched to a new way of making these chips and they are much much smaller and completely covered in metal, so I can't do anything with them.
Note: I previously misidentified this as a 74HC08, not an 74AHC08.

Collection: Accession 90-105: Science Service Records, 1920s – 1970s - Science Service, now the Society for Science & the Public, was a news organization founded in 1921 to promote the dissemination of scientific and technical information. Although initially intended as a news service, Science Service produced an extensive array of news features, radio programs, motion pictures, phonograph records, and demonstration kits and it also engaged in various educational, translation, and research activities.

Texas Instruments nSpire CX CAS - ti calculators are great. I am using the Lab Cradle. You can plug sensors (2x digital & 3x analog (12bit ADC)) in.
Sue keeps forgetting that she's already taken a calculator from work. (Don't worry, she returned them.)
This one was 16 bits before home users had any clue what that meant. By the time they realised, it no longer mattered, and no-one cared.
Complete with the famous TI Extended BASIC module (cartridge), and the equally famous TI Speech Synthesizer as featured in ‘Speak and Spell’ (and by extension, the movie E.T.)
This machine had pretty decent hardware, but nowhere near enough memory to speak of: 256 bytes of RAM (part of the CPU) and 16k of video RAM. Everything was stored on the video RAM when the graphics chip wasn't looking, something that made it seriously slow until you gave up and got a memory expansion box.

This one was hard to stitch, the metal layer in the top section is really tall when compared to the rest of the chip and it kept messing with the software. It's so tall that epoxy from the package managed to lodge itself in there and get out of my reach.
According to the datasheet this chip is contains power distribution switches and "is intended for applications where heavy capacitive loads and short circuits are likely to be encountered".

My calculating manner is my gift and my curse. Hmm..
On a lighter note, I tried something new with this one. I leveraged the shallow dof nature of my lens by setting the flat subject on top of a water bottle to create some distance from the background. No artificial blur was added :)

With acoustic coupler at the Texas State Historical Museum. The Silent 700 prints on thermal paper. This is a luggable hardcopy computer terminal. As shown, some units had a built-in modem and acoustic coupler. When this was current, modular jacks were not around, and regulations prohibited connecting anything (like a modem) directly to the phone lines.
