====Texas Instruments TMX 1795 (1970–1971)====
Texas Instruments developed in 1970&ndash;1971 a one-chip CPU replacement for the [[Datapoint 2200]] terminal, the TMX 1795 (later TMC 1795). Like Intel's later [[8008]], it was rejected by customer Datapoint. According to Gary Boone, the TMX 1795 never reached production. Still it reached a prototype state at 1971 February 24.<ref name="righto_com">{{cite web | url=https://www.righto.com/2015/05/the-texas-instruments-tmx-1795-first.html | title=The Texas Instruments TMX 1795: The (Almost) first, forgotten microprocessor }}</ref> Since it was built to the same specification, its instruction set was very similar to the Intel 8008.<ref name="genie">{{cite book |first1=Frederick |last1=Seitz |first2=Norman G. |last2=Einspruch |chapter=19.
