Interior of the 6502 Second Processor. The 6502 Second Processor (using a 6502C) was clocked at 3 MHz, a full 50% faster than the 6502 inside a BBC Model B, and also had 64 KB of RAM, of which typically 30–44 KB was free for application data (compared to as little as 8.5 KB on an unexpanded Model B in graphics mode, or only 5.75 KB with the disc interface).
Numerous coprocessors were developed for the Tube. Most commonly seen was the 6502 Second Processor, featuring a MOS Technology 6502 processor, which allowed unmodified BBC Micro programs to run faster and with more memory, as long as they use the API for all I/O. [1] [2] The Z80 Second Processor featured a Zilog Z80 processor running CP/M, and the 32016 Second Processor featured a National ...
The BBC Microcomputer System, or BBC Micro, is a family of microcomputers developed and manufactured by Acorn Computers in the early 1980s as part of the BBC's Computer Literacy Project. Launched in December 1981, it was showcased across several educational BBC television programmes, such as The Computer Programme (1982), Making the Most of the ...
Apple A12 and Huawei Kirin 980 mobile processors, both released in 2018, use 7 nm chips manufactured by TSMC. [127] AMD began using TSMC 7 nm starting with the Vega 20 GPU in November 2018, [128] with Zen 2-based CPUs and APUs from July 2019, [129] and for both PlayStation 5 [130] and Xbox Series X/S [131] consoles' APUs, released both in ...
In contrast, the BBC Micro employs one or two sets of eight 16-kilobit devices, with the RAM running at twice the speed (4 MHz) of the CPU (2 MHz), allowing the video system (screen refresh) and CPU memory accesses to be interleaved, with each accessor able to transfer bytes at 2 MHz. The RAM access limitations imposed by the Electron's ULA ...

The BBC Master is a home computer released by Acorn Computers in early 1986. [1] It was designed and built for the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) and was the successor to the BBC Micro Model B. The Master 128 remained in production until 1993. [2] [3]
