  Motorola 6800 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 6800 is a microprocessor produced by Motorola and released shortly after the Intel 8080 in 1975.
Several first-generation microcomputers of the 1970s, available by mail order as kits or in assembled form, used the 6800 as their CPU; examples are the SWTPC 6800 (the first computer to use the 6800) and the MITS Altair 680 range (MITS offering these as alternatives to its Altair 8800).
The 6800 'fathered' several descendants, the pinnacle being the greatly upgraded 6809, which was used in the Vectrex video game console and the TRS-80 Color Computer, among others.

 Motorola 6809 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 6809 was a major advance over both its predecessors, the in-house Motorola 6800 and the latter's near clone the MOS Technology 6502.
The 6809 was source-compatible with the 6800, even though the 6800 had 78 instructions and the 6809 only had 59.
It is considered to be the 'moral precursor' to the Motorola 68000 family of processors, though 68K design actually overlapped the 6809 project in time.

 CPU-World: Motorola 6800 microprocessor family
Motorola 6800 is a 8-bit microprocessor which was released at about the same time as Intel 8080.
Motorola 6800 started the big family of 680x microcontrolers and microprocessors, some of which are still produced today.
In the early days Motorola used XC prefix for engineering prototypes, this prefix was changed to "PC" for more recent processor families.

 MOS Technologies 6502 : 6502   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
The 6502 was designed primarily by the same team that had designed the Motorola 6800.
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.

 Motorola V120 Faceplate -- Recommendations and Resources   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Founder Paul Galvin came up with the name ''Motorola'' when his company started manufacturing car radios (a number of early companies making phonographs, radios, and other audio equipment in the early 20th century used the suffix "-ola", the most famous being Victrola; there was also the film editing device called a ''Moviola'').
It is the successor to the Motorola 68010 and is succeeded by the Motorola 68030.
The 68030 was the successor to the Motorola 68020, and was followed by the Motorola 68040.

It is considered to be the precursor to the Motorola 68000 family of processors, though 68K design overlapped the 6809 project.
Unfortunately both Motorola and Hitachi no longer produce the 6809 processor even though it was almost certainly the most powerful general purpose 8 bit CPU ever designed.

 Apple II History Museum - Articles
Their first chip, the 6501, was too similar to the Motorola 6800 (although it required some additional support chips to work the same as the 6800, it was pin-compatible, used a few similar op-codes, etc), and Motorola sued to prevent them from selling it.
The 6501 was pin-compatible with the 6800, whereas the 6502 added the innovation of an on-chip clock generator, which eliminated the need for the two-phase clock input but gave the chip a different pinout.
Motorola promptly sued MOS Technology, and an out-of-court settlement was reached in which MOS Technology agreed to take the 6501 off the market but was free to sell the 6502.

 6800 Microcomputer System
The SWTPC 6800 Computer System is designed around Motorola’s outstanding 6800 microprocessor chip and its integral family of support devices.
The 6800 microprocessor chip used in the system is a full specification Motorola com­ponent featuring 8 bit parallel data process­ing, 16 bit — 65K address buss, 72 instruc­tions with seven addressing modes, maskable and non-maskable interrupts, two accumulators, an index register, variable length stack, DMA Capability, 1.1 microsecond cycle time and TTL compatibility.
The Motorola mini-operating system ROM used in the system gives the user complete teletypewriter/terminal control the instant the system is turned on.

Like the Motorola 6809, this device processed data internally using 16 bits, but only had a data path that was 8-bits wide.
Motorola joined the list of 32-bit microprocessor manufacturers with the release of the 68020, which could access 4 gigabytes of RAM.
Subsequent development by Motorola of the 68000 family provided the second generation 68030, with 256 byte instruction and data caches.

This one right here is the PIA, the Motorola 6820 PIA and that one was 135 mils by 137 mils and that right there is the first integrated IO chip in the world, some of the first patents.
So Motorola had no claim on this except for some basic patents, and those basic patents are even called out in this thing here that has to do with charged MOS Technology with patent infringement and unfair competition.

Although the 680 was "pre-announced" on the cover of the November, 1975 issue of Popular Electronics (following the similar introduction of its big brother, the Altair 8800), the headline trumpeting "THE FIRST MOTOROLA 6800 COMPUTER PROJECT" was not the whole truth.
Ironically, page 5 of the same magazine carried an ad for the Sphere, a 6800 based computer available in kit form for $860, and page 89 advertised the SWTPC 6800 kit at $450.

The 68HC05 is based on the architecture of the Motorola 6800 (you may remember that the 6800 was one of the early microprocessors in the 1970s).
The 6805/6808 microcontrollers differ a little from this base 6800 architecture, but not greatly, and to understand the 6800 is to understand the 6805/6808 and 6811 microcontrollers.
Remember, the PIC is a relatively new architecture whilst the 6805/6808/6811 architecture is based on the original 6800, a second generation processor from the 1970s.
