Summary

[edit | edit source]

One sheet of pencil notes on squared paper, headed "7K010", tabulating the load on each memory-side output of the Spectrum 128 ULA. Each of A0 to A7 (pins 4 to 11) drives eight 4164 DRAMs (10 uA and 7 pF each) plus a 470 ohm resistor to a "PLA" and a TTL input; NRAS (pin 42) the same plus one LSTTL load; NCAS (pin 2) and NDRAMWE (pin 18) eight 4164s each; NROMCS (pin 41) a 680 ohm series resistor to an EPROM chip enable and one TTL output. These are the pins listed in the pencil "16mA test" note on the specification SPEC128-FER-DAT-028, and the 470 ohm and 680 ohm values match the Sinclair logic drawing SPEC128-SIN-SCH-023. The pin numbers agree with the pin table SPEC128-FER-NOT-032. Part of the Ferranti Archives 2026.
