| | MOS Technology 6502 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The 6510, a direct successor to the 6502 with a digital I/O port and a tristate bus, was the CPU utilized in the extremely popular Commodore 64 home computer. | | | The 6502 was next used in the Apple II family, and then quickly appeared in various Commodore and Atari home computers, the BBC Micro family, and a huge number of other designs now lost to history. | | | The instruction decoding in the 6502 is implemented by a hardwired logic array (similar to a programmable logic array) which is only defined for valid opcodes. |

| | Jacques Ellul is one proponent of the irresistibleness of technology to humans. | | | In its most common use, technology refers to tools and machines that may be used to help solve problems. | | | In this use, technology is a far-reaching term that may include both simple tools, such as a wooden spoon, and complex tools, such as the space station or the written sets of procedures and maintenance manuals for it. |

| | MOS Technology, Inc., also known as Commodore Semiconductor Group, was a microprocessor and calculator company famous for its 6502 processor. | | | MOS had previously designed a simple computer kit called the KIM-1, primarily to "show off" the 6502 chip. | | | Due to its speed it outran the more complex and expensive 6800, Intel 8080 and Zilog Z80 series, but cost much less and was easier to work with. |

| | Appropriate technology is a term which refers to using the simplest and most benign level of technology which can effectively achieve the intended purpose. | | | Fictional technology is proposed or described in many different contexts for many different reasons: Exploratory engineering seeks to identify if a prospective technology can be designed in detail, and simulated, even if it cannot be built yet - this is often a prerequisite to venture capital funding, or investigation in weapons research. | | | A related term, intermediate technology, refers specifically to tools that cost more than those currently in use in a developing nation but much less than those that would be used in a developed nation. |

| | The ability to use the same technology for memory as for the processor resulted in the explosion of cheap, large memory machines that we see today. | | | Thus, the IC revolutionized computer design in two ways: by shrinking the size of computers, and by making the memory technology compatible with the processing technology. | | | The hardest part of designing such a machine was to get the carry to propogate cleanly from one digit to the next (so that there wouldn't be any ambiguous, half visible, numbers showing in the display windows). |

| | The processor didn't have I/O instructions, therefore 6502-based computers used memory mapped I/O. All microprocessors in the 6502/650x family are software compatible between each other - the differences between CPUs are in hardware (different maximum size of addressed memory, clock oscillator is on-board or external, interrupt input options). | | | Stack size of the 6502 was limited to 256 bytes. | | | MOS Technology 6502 and other 650x/651x processors are a family of inexpensive 8-bit microprocessors. |
