17.3. What does this IC number mean?
Here are a few Commodore IC numbers and their functions. Note that thi=
s
| is an incomplete list. A more comprehensive list is called csg.chips.i=
nfo
and is at ftp.funet.fi.
For the VIC-20:
Mnemonic PN# Alt. PN#
CPU 6502
VIC-I (NTSC-M) 6560
VIC-I (PAL-B) 6561
CPU 6502
For the C-64 and C-64C:
Mnemonic PN# Alt. PN#
CPU 6510
VIC-II (NTSC-M) 6567 8562?
VIC-II (PAL-B) 6569 8565
VIC-II (PAL-N) 6572
VIC-II (PAL-M) 6573
SID 6581 6582 8580
For the C-128(D):
Mnemonic PN# Alt. PN# Notes:
CPU 8502
VIC-IIe (NTSC-M) 8564
VIC-IIe (PAL-B) 8566
VIC-IIe (PAL-N) 8569
| DVDC 8563 8568 (get r9a or r9b if possible)
SID 6581 6582 8580
Differences between 64 boards:
The older boards had discrete LSI logic and a PLA chip. The newer
boards put all the PLA and LSI logic into one ASIC chip. On the
older boards, the KERNAL and BASIC ROMs were separate, while they are
combined in the newer design.
There are two different models of the narrow board. One has Color RAM,
while the other does not. The ASIC chip includes the PLA and 7 TTL chi=
ps,
and the Color RAM on some machines machines.
The new models use 9 volt versions 8580 SID, while older models use the
6581 12 volt SID. The VIC chip (6567 NTSC-M, 6569 PAL-B) has been repl=
aced
with the 8562 (NTSC-M) and 8565 (PAL-B) on newer models.
Both BASIC 2.0 and the KERNAL ROM have been combined into one ROM for
the C64C/G/GS. This ROM is the same as is used on the C128 in C64 mode.
The ROM is indentical except for nationality differences.
+ 17.4. What are the differences between C64 ROM Revisions?
+ Well, they have a number of them, and each difference is documented and
+ explained in "The Commodore 64 Whole Memory Guide" by Tim Arnot.
