MOS Technologies was founded in Norristown, PA by Chuck Peddle, Bill Mensch, and several other ex-Motorola IC designers.
In September of 1976, Commodore announced that they were buying MOS Technologies to keep from being hosed by a betrayal by Texas Instruments.
MOS, thanks to fixing its masks (the design that is imprinted on the chip), was able to keep their fail rate much lower, and as a result were able to sell chips at a much lower price than the competition.

MOS technologies, employing MOS transistors, were developed later than bipolar ones, and for the most part have been built only in microelectronic form.
Integrated-injection logic (I2L) technology reduces the packing densities of bipolar devices to a size approaching that of MOS devices by compressing a logic circuit made of two transistors into a single unit.
As fabrication technology matured, yields increased to the point where commercial yields for simple circuits are presently at a stable 75-80% at competitive IC manufacturing firms.

 Commodore.ca | History | MOS Technology & the Rise of the 6502 Processor
MOS' claim to fame was their development and manufacturing of the wildly successful 6500 line of microprocessors which in addition to being used in nearly all Commodore computers and floppy drives, was also the driving force of all pre-1984 Apples.
Chuck Peddle, we were informed commodore.ca that MOS was always pronounced M.O.S. so as not to confuse it with the MOSTek which was a competing company that was also established in 1969.
MOS was able to produce the chips at this low price because they increased their yield dramatically by reducing flaws in their chips 'masks' before starting production.

 MOS Technologies 6502 : 6502
When it was introduced it was the least expensive "full" CPU on the market by far, about 1/6th or less of competing designs from larger companies such as Motorola and Intel.
After quitting Motorola en-mass, they quickly designed their 6501, a completely new design that was nevertheless pin-compatible with the 6800.
Motorola immediately sued, although today the case would have been dismissed out of hand, and the damage to MOS was enough for them to agree to stop producing the 6501.

MOS Technologies MOS (metal oxide silicon) technologies offer a reduction in the large space and high power consumption requirements of bipolar devices.
As MOS technology advanced, n-channel (NMOS) devices replaced PMOS devices because they offered higher speed performance for the same density, complexity, and cost.
Recently emerging biCMOS technologies combine the speed advantages of modern bipolar technology with the space and power advantages of MOS technology (Oldham, 1991).

 Commodore PET 2001 computer
There was an earlier Commodore computer, the KIM-1, but Commodore didn't design it, they inherited it when they bought MOS Technologies, who designed and produced computer chips - the KIM-1 was a way to demonstrate the power of the MOS 6502 CPU to the industrial community.
Chuck Peddle was an engineer at MOS who worked on their 6502 CPU, as well as the KIM-1 computer.
It was designed around the MOS Technologies 6502 CPU, which eventually came to be used in many of the popular computers of the day - the Apple II, Atari 400/800, AIM-65, and others.

In the traditional metal-oxide semiconductor (MOS) switch, if high voltage is applied to the metal gate, it conducts electricity.
This second kind of switch operates with the opposite polarity charge of a traditional MOS, "complementing" the traditional MOS switch.
Almost all microprocessor, memory, and support chips use both kinds of MOS switch, and thus are CMOS-based.

Key features of this compact model dedicated to analog/RF IC design are presented with emphasis on aspects of its use: a short outline of the model theory, implemented physical effects, coding in Verilog-A, handling of intrinsic and extrinsic model parameters.
Albeit still widely used, this methodology does not accurately capture technology process variations and circuit responses that would be desirable in order to improve yield without increasing design margins.
The situation is bound to get even more complicated with the 45nm and 32nm technologies where inductance effects will start playing an increased role and hence needs to be scrutinized with the same level of accuracy typically devoted to resistance and capacitance extraction so far.

The 6502 is an 8-bit microprocessor designed by MOS Technologies in 1975.
When it was introduced it was the least expensive full featured CPU on the market by far, at about 1/6th the price, or less, of competing designs from larger companies such as Motorola and Intel.
However this left MOS with the problem of getting new developers onto the system, so in response engineer Chuck Peddle designed the KIM-1 single-board computer.
