With that said, welcome to another installment of #nakeddiefriday. What I have for you today is one p/n TMP47C420AF by Toshiba. This is a "high-speed and high-performance 4-bit single chip microcomputer" which is part of the TLCS-47 series and has an LCD controller circuit, together with 4Kx8 mask ROM and 256x4 RAM.

1/X Unboxing the #MSM8916 based M9S-E LCD Modem WiFi ("5G", but not really)
After the huge success of Debian on the #OpenStick LTE USB dongle three years ago, I wondered if you can still get MSM8916-based LTE routers to run Debian on. The search results on AliExpress piqued me: there is a new 17€ device with a color LCD screen!
Fast forward two weeks, it's here. Fasten your seatbelts to see how it works (and how it doesn't).

And the #nakeddiefriday comes back with a bang. Today's guest is a Philips product, p/n PCB83C851. This is a 8051 derivative, of which Philips made quite a few.
I'll do a short tour thread with a small bonus at the end.

Apologies for the break in blogging, but I've spent the past month preparing for, and then giving, my 'VanSpoof and F**dG3ar' talk at the 2025 Open Hardware Summit.
