Can't find any information about this mystery card I yanked from the Apple IIe. The large chip is an asynchronous communications adapter I can't find a datasheet for; everything else is a 74xx logic chip. It's got its own clock. No markings on the other side. The rework wires don't speak to a large production run. Strong TIS-100 vibes from this thing.

@phooky That took me down a deep dive, but found it! It's a Micron Eye camera card! mirrors.apple2.org.za/Apple%20 - That 4040 counter IC next to the crystal looks sub-optimal tho!

@cefiar Thank you so much for finding this! I'd completely given up on figuring out what this was. The Apple IIe was donated about 6-7 years ago and I don't think the camera came along with it.

The IS32 is an incredible rabbit hole.

Apparently you can use almost any decapped low-capacity DRAM to do imaging, which is just awesome.
