There was an article in Byte: Ciarcia's Circuit Cellar Sept 1981 pg 38: "Build an Unlimited Vocabulary Speech Synthesizer". It has pinouts, programming info etc., although not a spec sheet. If it's not satisfactory, or you can't get the article, I'll fax you one. I also have lots of app note stuff left over from another project, but faxing it all would be a costly item. If you're interested, correspond by Email and we'll set something up. I think some of the chip merchants in the back of Byte or Computer Shopper might still have them, although they are REALLY OLD technology and you might want to investigate some of the other chips (National, TI, Siemens, or Signetics).
