JOLT was designed by Raymond M. Holt, co-founder of Microcomputer Associates, Incorporated. KIM-1 the development board for the MOS Technology / Rockwell / Synertek 6502 microprocessor. The name KIM is short for "keyboard input monitor". SYM-1 a slightly improved KIM-1 with improved software, more memory, and I/O.
An embedded system on a plug-in card with processor, memory, power supply, and external interfaces. An embedded system is a computer system—a combination of a computer processor, computer memory, and input/output peripheral devices—that has a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or electronic system.
A more interactive form of computer use developed commercially by the middle 1960s. In a time-sharing system, multiple teleprinter and display terminals let many people share the use of one mainframe computer processor, with the operating system assigning time slices to each user's jobs. This was common in business applications and in science ...
A single-board computer ( SBC) is a complete computer built on a single circuit board, with microprocessor (s), memory, input/output (I/O) and other features required of a functional computer. Single-board computers are commonly made as demonstration or development systems, for educational systems, or for use as embedded computer controllers.
The SIM8-01 prototyping board holding a MCS-8 micro computer set, based on the Intel 8008 was released in 1972. Intel SIM8-01, Dated 1972. This was Intel’s first 8-bit Microprocessor based development system. This board contains the CPU, RAM, ROM and TTY terminal interface all on-board and can hence run as a single board.
A motherboard (also called mainboard, main circuit board, MB, base board, system board, or, in Apple computers, logic board) is the main printed circuit board (PCB) in general-purpose computers and other expandable systems. It holds and allows communication between many of the crucial electronic components of a system, such as the central ...
Processor (computing) In computing and computer science, a processor or processing unit is an electrical component ( digital circuit) that performs operations on an external data source, usually memory or some other data stream. [1] It typically takes the form of a microprocessor, which can be implemented on a single or a few tightly integrated ...
This microcomputer is based on a Motorola 68000 16/32-bit microprocessor. The Motorola 68000 Educational Computer Board (MEX68KECB) was a development board for the Motorola 68000 microprocessor, introduced by Motorola in 1981. It featured the 68K CPU, memory, I/O devices and built-in educational and training software.
