Signal Sintez 2

The Sintez 2 was produced in 1991 by the Signal company in Moldova. The computer was a ZX Spectrum clone, which were very popular in the Soviet Union prior to it's collapse, due to the fact that the architecture was not complicated and easy to clone.

The Sintez 2 does not have a ULA chip, but instead uses circuitry entirely built from TTL logic chips. There is no TV output, only an RGB connector. The computer was produced at a time when the Soviet Union collapsed, and the demand for Spectrum Clones had fallen. Most of the Sintez 2 computers that were produced were eventually recycled without ever being sold to the public.
