The SC3423 is a single-chip LSI CMOS calculator with 8-digit four
function arithmetic operations, single memory, extraction of square
root and percentage calculation functions, leading zero and trailing
zero suppression, chain calculations and internal debouncing and
encoding of keyboard inputs. It is designed for LCD operation with
3.0V power supply (either from solar cell or battery), auto-power off,
low power dissipation and single power supply making the SC3423
ideal for hand held calculators with low system cost.

i) Enters multiplicand.
ii) Performs previous operation and displays result.
c) Division Key (÷)
i) Enters dividend.
ii) Performs previous operation and displays result.
d) Addition Key (+)
i) Conditions machine for an addition.
ii) Performs previous operation and displays result.
e) Subtraction Key (-)
i) Conditions machine for a subtraction.
ii) Performs previous operation and displays result.
f) Percent Key (%)
The purpose of the percent key is to allow for calculation of add-on and discount. Deter mination of add-on
requires the principal amount to be the first entry followed by the "+" or "x" key, with the percentage being the
second entry. Depression of the percent key yields the amount to add on, such as tax or interest. Depression
of the "=" key adds this amount to the principal.
g) Change Sign Key (+/-)
Pushing the "+/-" key twice in succession causes the corresponding sign to appear and disappear. During
digit entry; this function changes the sign of the entered factor.
h) Power On/All Clear Key (ON/AC)
i) First push power-on displays "0".
ii) In the middle of a digit entry, a second push will clear all registers and memory.
i) Clear Entry/Clear Key (CE/C)
i) During the digit entry, the first depression will clear the entry register. And display the previous enter
number again.
ii) The second push will clear all registers except memory.
j) Clear Entry Key (CE)
During the digit entry will clear the entry register and display number "0".
k) Square Root Key (
Extracts the square root of a positive number displayed in the entry register.
I) Memory Plus Key (M+)
i) Adds the current display to the contents of memory.
i) Subtracts the current display from the contents of memory
ii) It will terminate a number entry.
n) Memory Recall and Clear Key (RCM)
i) First push, as RM key, transfers the contents of the memory register into the display register.
ii) Second push, as CM key, clears the memory.
o) Number, Decimal Key ("O - 9", "•")
The First number key in a sequence will clear the display and enter the digit in the display. Successive
entries will shift the display left and enters the data in display register. The first decimal point entered is
effective. An attempted entry of more than 8 digits or 7 decimal places will be ignored.
p) TouchTone (
i) When power is ON, the touchtone function is enable and the beep sound is generated output during
125ms and
ii) Selection of touchtone function is toggled by touchtone key.
iii) Output waveform.

3. ERROR CONDITIONS
a). Error Detection
System errors occur when:
i) The integral part of any calculation result exceeds 16 digits.
ii) The integral part of any memory calculation result exceeds 8-digit or when the integral part of any addend
or subtrahend to memory exceeds 8-digit.
iii) The integral part of a mark-up and markdown calculation result exceeds 8-digit.
iv) A division by zero is attempted.
v) An extraction of the square root of a negative number is attempted.
Rough Estimate Calculation results occur when:
The integral part of the result of any one of the standard four functions, percentage, square, reciprocal,
and power calculations exceeds 8-digit and is equal to 16-digit or less.
b). Error Indication
i) System error: "0” is indicated in the first-digit position and "E" in the sign-digit position.
ii) Rough Estimate Calculation result:
The high-order 8-digit of a calculation result is indicated together with "E". The location of the decimal
point corresponds to the result of calculation times le-8, and no zero shift is performed.
c). Error Release
i) System error: A system error can be released by depressing ON/AC key.
ii) Rough Estimate Calculation result: A rough estimate calculation error can be released by depressing the
ON/AC or CE/C key. However the calculation result is not cleared by CE/C key but is retained.
4. OPERATION CHARACTERISTICS
a) Constant Operation
The SC3423 has implied constant mode on +, -, x, ÷, &, % operations. The constant is performed
automatically by the "=" key, "%" key, or "%" key without a constant for addition, subtraction and division
while the first operand is the constant for multiplication.
b) Number Entry
Numbericals can be entered up to 8-digit. Entries equal to 9-digit or more are ignored.
c) Memory Protection
In any error detection, the memory contents present before the error detection are protected.
d) Memory Indication
If the memory contents are a number other than zero, "M" is indicated in the sign-digit position.
e) Auto Power Off
If no key is depressed for a specific period of time, the power supply will automatically turn off. This time
interval up to power-off is 131,072 words (Approximately equal to 14 minutes and 24 seconds at Fd= 52 Hz,
the display time of a word being equal to 6ms when Fd= 52 Hz).

f) Double Key Depression
The order of priority, when two keys are depressed simultaneously is as follows :
OFF -> ON/AC -> CE/C -> 5 -> 6 -> 4 -> ROM -> · -> 9
·
x <- <- <-0<-1<- 3<-2<- CM <-7 <- 8 <-- <
·
