HARDWARE
The HP 9826A and 9836A are two of Hewlett-Packard's
newest and most powerful desktop computers. Each is based
on the Motorola MC68000 microprocessor. Both machines
have full graphics capability and up to 2 full megabytes of
user read/write memory. Both operate on 5%" flexible disc
drives (the 9836A has two) which feature 264K bytes of
mass storage. While the 9826A has an integral 7" (178mm)
CRT which makes it useful for computer-aided testing (CAT)
and control, the 9836A has a full 12.2" (310mm) CRT
which makes it ideal for computer-aided engineering (CAE)
applications. Each model features the following:
Seven levels of prioritized interrupt
Memory-mapped I/O
Built-in HP-IB interface
Standard ASCII keyboard with numeric keypad and
international language options
Ten (20 with shift) user-definable soft keys with soft labels
Rotary-control knob for cursor control, interrupt generation
and analog simulations
