(added: I checked Ericīs HP Calculator Chips and I would like to call your attention to some data I posted. I seem to have seen some ACT chips elsewhere, but chances are that I mixed the pictures. Please, follow Ericīs link and confirm.)
Hi;
I bought an HP22 some weeks ago and it has the same problem. I could also buy two HP25 and three HP21 that are not working, and along with some previous pictures I kept from other HP25, HP22 and HP21 I was able to repair, I consolidated some information.
Both HP22 and HP25 use the same PCB layout and differ only in their ROM chips. I found that three of the five ICīs in these calculators have the same codes. The ACT varies from some models, and I collected these codes: 1820-1523
1820-1596 (both seen in the HP21, too)
1820-1741 (seems to be used by the HP29C, too)
Display driver appears in all three of them with the code:1820-1382 ROM chip varies:1818-0163 + 1818-0164 for the HP22 (found in two different units)
1818-0154 + 1818-0168 for the HP25 (I seem to read 1818-0158 in one of them...)
1818-0129 for the HP21 I found the same RAM chips in both the HP22 and the HP25 (the HP21 seems to use available ACT registers only)1820-1564 I also happen to have seen an HP25C with two RAM chips but their codes were not visible. In another HP25C there is a RAM chip written:HP5061-0469 2 That is all information I have so far. Please, if there is something else to be added, I'd appreciate. If there is more information about this somewhere else, please, point the addresses out!
AND if I messed some information up, PLEASE, point it out!
Cheers.
