TMS9914ANL

[c a l a n d e]

Does anyone know what this Texas Instruments chip is?

TMS9914ANL MES9504

Has 40 pins and looks like a processor.

I don't know.

I think it was the 9918 that was the video controller, that even had
sprites.

The number doesn't ring a bell as a CPU, but I would place it as
a support chip at the very least.

Its seems to be a General Purpose Interface Adapter (IEEE 488)
peripheral for the TMS9900 microprocessor.

I am always surprised how often I can get a hit immediately by

using the part number and adding ".pdf". That gets you right away
to a datasheet, rather than pages that may be about selling it
where there will be little or no information about it.
