A very accurate emulator. This version has a keyboard and display circuit that is the same as the original calculator, download SinclairScientific5 from github to make it work.
Uses an Arduino Nano or clone.
RKO/RKN are 4.7K, this is just a path to ground for the ADC.
R1..8 are 1K, smaller resistors makes it brighter
Buttons are standard 6x6x5mm.
You can also use 6x6x4.3mm to make the keys a little harder to push, like the original calculator.
For more accuracy, use blue for numbers and white for everything else.
Uses 3 displays type: 2352B / 2352BS

Power Switch is:

Power comes from a 4 AAA battery holder attached with double sided sticky tape to the back of the keyboard, The width of the holder should be 50mm or less
4 M2 hexagonal standoffs keep it off the table.
