As mentioned in a previous post, I have a Racal 9903 counter timer that I'm trying to repair; I found a manual that, unfortunately, has a vital section of the schematic missing due to a bad scan, but I have determined that the LSI device IC5 is probably at fault. The IC in question is, of course, a custom part, a Ferranti manufactured 22-4601. Anyone have any idea where I might get one? Not holding out much hope as it's a 30 year old device, but you never know. Martin

that is a Racal part number it is the same LSI in my 9913 manual. Looks possible to workaround with a multiplexer plus divider TTL etc

The manual I found has a missing section right down the centre where IC5 is located so I can't see all the interconnections; the circuit description indicates it acts as a counter, multiplexer and display control logic so there's a good chance it could be replaced with some TTL. I'll contact you by email about the manual as I see you have a 9911 manual on your list, hopefully it's fairly similar. Martin
