IRAC was voiced by Tom Kratochvil.
In the episode I.R.A.C. is Missing, "IRAC" is said to stand for "Internal Retrieval Associative Computer", instead of "Information Retrieval Associative Computer".
According to Steve Trevor, usage of IRAC costs $100 (in 1978) per minute.^[1]

Behind the scenes, IRA (IRAC) was constructed from the body of a 1976 Hazeltine Modular One computer terminal. The CRT display was replaced by blinking lights resembling a Hasbro Lite-Brite toy and a gooseneck flexible microphone was added to the keyboard.
