Encyclopedia > MOS Technology 8500

The MOS Technology 8500 is an HMOS-II variant of the MOS Technology 6510 CPU used in the Commodore 64 computer. Other than the process change, it is identical to the NMOS and HMOS-I version of the 6510.


The 8500 was originally designed for use in the modernised C64, the C64C. However in 1985, limited quantities of 8500s were found on C64 motheboards. It was not widely used until 1987, when Commodore finally shipped C64Cs with a totally redesigned motherboard using the new 85xx chipset.
