Ohio Scientific Model 560Z CPU (PDP-8!)
<Yes, I believe you're right. It was a CMOS technology product at a time
<when such were less than common. There was a chaper devoted to it in the
<old Osborne book(s) about Microprocessors.
It was one of the two CMOS cpus available early on, the 6100 (12bit PDP-8)
and the 180x (18xx pair or 1802 8bitters). it would be a while before eithe
would be edged out of the market.
<I never saw one in a system, though.
Intersil and Harris sold a single board, a tiny system and full development
systems for the 6100 series. I happen to have the intersil 6960 sampler
and would love to find a Intercept JR or an Intercept.
