Members
The original 8080 had an issue that prevented it from working with external TTL components as intended. This was fixed with the introduction of the "A" versions.
| Part | Frequency | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 8080 | 500 kHz - 2.08 MHz | MPU, Original, has compatibility issues with TTL |
| 8080A-1 | 500 kHz - 3.12 MHz | MPU |
| 8080A-2 | 500 kHz - 2.63 MHz | MPU |
| 8224 | clock generator & driver | |
| 8801 | clock generator crystal | |
| 8228 | system controller & bus driver | |
| 8238 | system controller & bus driver |
