EXIDY DISCRETE LOGIC

HARDWARE DESCRIPTION | When commercial video games were first considered the cost of CPUs were prohibitive, they were a comparitivly recent discovery and still extremely expensive. Nolan Bushnell, who would go on to form Atari, realised he could put video games together not using a CENTRAL processing unit but instead use decentralised processing in the form of relatively inexpensive TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic) circuits spread over a whole PCB. | These early games could also include all sorts of weirdness using other electronic parts including in some cases parts of the monitor and audio circuitry undertaking certain jobs like controlling inputs.
