Sinclair Executive Memory

Display is 8 digits, red LED.

4-function, memory.

3.9v (3x button cells).

56 mm x 138 mm x 9 mm (2.2" x 5.5" x 0.4").

Introduced 1973.

Made in England

The incredibly small thickness for this stage in calculator development was attained by using button cells as the power source.
The low power consumption needed to employ button cells with their low capcity was attained by pulsing the electronics - not recommended by the manufacturer, but it worked.
The keypad uses a very thin plastic membrane moulding to keep the thickness down. The actual keys are the tiny buttons in the centre of each pad area.

Black Sinclair Executive Memory

Frank Fröhn has kindly provided this photograph of an all-black Executive Memory. The only marking on it is the logo, which appears to be that of CBS (Columbia Broadcasting System), so it was probably supplied as a promotional item.
