In addition, MOS had a secret weapon, the ability to "fix" their masks.² Masks are the large drawings of the chip that are photo-reduced to make the pattern from which chips are made – a process similar to photocopying.
MOS also released a series of similar CPUs using external clocks, which added a "1" to the name in the 3rd digit, as the 6512 through 6515.

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.
The integrated circuit chip that went into CBM's successful SR36/37 calculator came from MOS Technology, as does the current chip for the SR7919D calculator (a model which is rumored to have around 25 per cent of the UK scientific calculator market) and others of the current CBM range.

The MOS Technology 8502 was MOS's microprocessor used as one of the two¹ CPUs in the Commodore 128 home/personal computer.
The 8502 was compatible with the C64's 6510, which was itself a compatible successor to the venerable 6502 (used in the VIC-20 among many other micros).
The double speed was used in the native C128 mode only, and then for applications where the 80-column RGBI-monitor output was needed (due to the cycle-stealing technique of the C128's 40-column VIC-II display chip, which allowed only ~1 MHz operation of the CPU, 40-column output was suspended when running the CPU at double speed).
