Applications and successors
The 8080 was acclimated in abounding aboriginal microcomputers, such as the MITS Altair 8800 Computer, Processor Technology SOL-20 Terminal Computer and IMSAI 8080 Microcomputer, basic the abject for machines active the CP/M operating arrangement (the later, about absolutely accordant and added capable, Zilog Z80 processor would capitalize on this, with Z80 & CP/M acceptable the ascendant CPU & OS aggregate of the aeon about 1976 to 1983 abundant as did the x86 & MS-DOS for the PC a decade later). Even in 1979 afterwards accession of the Z80 and 8085 processors, 5 manufacturers of the 8080 were affairs an estimated 500,000 units per ages at a amount about $3 to $4 per unit.3 The aboriginal single-board microcomputers, such as MYCRO-1 and the dyna-micro were based on the Intel 8080. One of the aboriginal uses of the 8080 was fabricated in the backward 1970s by Cubic-Western Abstracts of San Diego, CA in its Automatic Fare Collection Systems custom advised for accumulation alteration systems such as BART and others about the world. An aboriginal automatic use of the 8080 was as the "brain" of the DatagraphiX Auto-COM (Computer Output Microfiche) band of articles which took ample amounts of user abstracts from reel-to-reel band and beheld it assimilate microfiche. The Auto-COM instruments aswell included an absolute automatic blur cutting, processing, washing, and dehydration sub-system – absolutely a feat, both again and in the 21st century, to all be able auspiciously with alone an 8-bit chip active at a alarm acceleration of beneath than 1 MHz with a 64 KB anamnesis limit. In addition, several aboriginal arcade video abecedarian were congenital about the 8080 microprocessor. Space Invaders was conceivably the a lot of accepted such title.
Shortly afterwards the barrage of the 8080, the Motorola 6800 aggressive architecture was introduced, and afterwards that, the MOS Technology 6502 aberration of the 6800. Zilog alien the Z80, which had a accordant machine-language apprenticeship set and initially acclimated the aforementioned accumulation accent as the 8080, but for acknowledged reasons, Zilog developed a syntactically-different (but cipher compatible) another accumulation accent for the Z80. At Intel, the 8080 was followed by the accordant and electrically added affected 8085, and afterwards by the accumulation accent accordant 16-bit 8086 and again the 8/16-bit 8088, which was called by IBM for its new PC to be launched in 1981. Afterwards NEC fabricated a NEC V20 (a 8088 carbon with Intel 80186 apprenticeship set compatibility) which aswell accurate an 8080 appetite mode. This was aswell accurate by NEC's V30 (a analogously added 8086 clone). Thus, the 8080, via its ISA, fabricated a abiding appulse on computer history.
In the Soviet Union, manufacturers cloned the 8080 microprocessor's blueprint geometry and started to aftermath them beneath the name KP580ИK80 (later apparent as KP580BM80), area even the pins were placed identically. This processor was the abject of the Radio86RK (Радио 86РК in Russian), apparently the a lot of accepted abecedarian single-board computer in the Soviet Union. Radio86RK's antecedent was the Micro-80 (Микро-80 in Russian), and its almsman the Orion-128 (Орион-128 in Russian) which had a graphical display. Both were congenital on the KP580 processor. According to some sources, the Soviet analog had two undocumented instructions, specific to itself; however, these were not broadly known.
Another archetypal accordant with Intel 8080A, called MMN8080, was produced at Microelectronica Bucharest in Romania.4 There was aswell a accordant Polish CPU called MCY78805 and the Czech-made Tesla MHB 8080A.
