The '''MOS Technology 6502''' is an 8-bit microprocessor designed by Chuck Peddle in 1975 for MOS Technology (later purchased by Commodore). 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. It was nevertheless faster than most of them, and, along Along with the [[Zilog]] [[Z80]], sparked off a series of computer projects that would eventually result in the home computer revolution of the 1980s. The 6502 design was originally second-sourced by Rockwell and Synertek and later licensed to a number of companies; it is still made for embedded systems.
