Spectrum +3
The transistors in the +3 PSU are H1061s. Possible alternatives include the BD243C and TIP41C
Integrated Circuits
RAM
MM5920N (national Semiconductors) chips are equivalent to 4116 RAM chips AM9016EDC (AMD) chips are the same as 4116 chips. IMS2600P-12 (Inmos) chips work in any upper RAM position (IC15-22) 41256 chips work in place of 4164 upper RAM chips V53C256P80L chips work in any upper RAM position (IC15-22) MN41257-12 chips work in any upper RAM position (IC15-22)
Logic
74LSxx series chips can be replaced with 74HCTxx series chips
CPU
Various makes of Z80 processor are used on Spectrums. Zilog Z80 CPU NEC D780C
