  1. Where to buy a 6502 chip - Retrocomputing Stack Exchange

    Jun 8, 2020 · I want to purchase a 6502 40 pin CPU in order to verify if my 6502 is faulty, I've seen I can buy from Hong Kong but would prefer closer (to the UK), RS and CPC don’t seen to …

  2. Why did so many early microcomputers use the MOS 6502 and …

    May 14, 2017 · Quite a few successful early microcomputers used the MOS 6502 CPU. This included, but was not limited to, systems like the Apple I, Apple II, Commodore PET, and …

  3. Comparing raw performance of the Z80 and the 6502

    May 21, 2022 · A lot has been said on the internet about the 6502, at 1MHz, being roughly equivalent in performance to the Z80, at 4 MHz. It is said the Z80 has a typical 4 clock ticks …

  4. Is there a standardised 6502 assembly syntax?

    Mar 9, 2024 · 10 Is there an standardised 6502 assembly syntax? Not really. While MOS' own Cross-Assembler might have been a base, it was way too primitive to be be considered. Still, …

  5. 6502 - Transistor-level schematic of 65C02 - Retrocomputing …

    Mar 14, 2022 · @jwh20: Many aspects of the 6502 design appear to be predicated upon the use of NMOS and its ability to form very large "NOR" gates. Given that, I would not expect a …

  6. Modulus arithmetic on the 6502 - Retrocomputing Stack Exchange

    Dec 13, 2020 · I have a very simple problem with is turning out to be surprisingly complex to solve. I wish to add two bytes using modulus arithmetic, where the modulus is known at …

  7. What is a use case for the JAM instruction on the MOS Technology …

    Aug 10, 2016 · On all NMOS 6502 variants, for example, two bits of STA/STX/STY identify whether the instruction should store A (one bit set), X (the other bit set), or Y (neither bit set).

  8. 6502 - Behavior of the zero and negative/sign flags on classic ...

    Jul 14, 2019 · 9 While Wilson and Janka already explain the arithmetic and 6502 related (*1) implication, I somehow get the feeling this question is not about the 6502 Behavior of the zero …

  9. What is the MOS 6502 doing on each cycle of an instruction?

    Feb 7, 2021 · 11 Assuming you’re asking: what can the 6502 be seen to be doing by an external observer, then the data sheet has a full breakdown of bus activity per cycle per addressing …

  10. 6502 - How was “Super Mario Bros” made with Assembly if the …

    Jan 17, 2021 · The Fine Print Would somebody care to explain how "Super Mario Bros." was released in 1985. But the DASM Assembler came out in 1987? There is no relation between …
