About: Mostek 5065

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Mostek 5065, or MK5065 for short, is an 8-bit microprocessor introduced by Mostek in early 1974. The design was originally developed by Motorola for use in an Olivetti electronic calculator, and they licensed it to Mostek for use in non-calculator roles. It featured three sets of processor registers allowing it to switch to an interrupt handler in a single cycle, and a wait-for-data mode that aided direct memory access.

  • The Mostek 5065, or MK5065 for short, is an 8-bit microprocessor introduced by Mostek in early 1974. The design was originally developed by Motorola for use in an Olivetti electronic calculator, and they licensed it to Mostek for use in non-calculator roles. It featured three sets of processor registers allowing it to switch to an interrupt handler in a single cycle, and a wait-for-data mode that aided direct memory access. In spite of a relatively low cost (for the era) of $58 in quantities of 100, the design appears to have seen little use. The Fairchild F8 was introduced at about the same time, aimed at the same markets. The F8 had a number of advantages over the 5065 due to its more modern design. In June 1975, Mostek licensed the F8 under a second source arrangement. The 5065 disappeared from Mostek's 1975 catalog, which mentions only their F8, the MK3850. (en)
