Trasnputer OS ROMs?

Post by AndresPlazaR »

Hi,

I'm in the process of dismantling and extracting the components of a donor machine (520STFM) to build my (future) Phoenix board, and when I looked the ROM chips on the board I did not recognized them, they have the code numbers C101631-001 and C101632-001. I went to my trusted source of info about Atari chips (Best Electronics), and they are listed as "Atari Transputer O.S.". Could that be right? The Transputer, as far as I know, is a very different machine, right?

Does any of you have the same ROM chips?

Take care,

Andres.

Aja! Thanks both for the clarification. I suspected that much, but I was confused by Best Electronics info. :-)
