The TMX1795 was a working prototype for an 8-bit microprocessor designed by Texas Instruments in 1970-1971.
Architecturally, the TMX 1795 was very similar to the Intel 8008 with a large overlap between the two instruction sets. This is largely due to both companies following the same specification given to them by their client - CTC. CTC eventually rejected TI's version for some unknown reason and Intel went on to releasing the 8008 just a year later. TI went on to develop the TMS0100 Series single-chip calculators and later the TMS1000 Series 4-bit microcontrollers.
