The company has gone by a couple of names in the past: MOS Technologies, Commodore Semiconductor Group, perhaps more... but it all boils down to Commodore itself. =========================================================================== Internet: Geoffrey.Welsh@f171.n221.z1.fidonet.org | 66 Mooregate Crescent Usenet: watmath!isishq!izot | Suite 602 FidoNet: Geoffrey Welsh on 1:221/171 | Kitchener, Ontario PunterNet: 7/Geoffrey Welsh | N2M 5E6 CANADA BBS: (519) 742-8939 24h 7d 300/1200/2400bps | (519) 741-9553 =========================================================================== | "I don't need a disclaimer.

Commodore's Semiconductor Division, MOS Technology. The specs for the C64 chips are in the C64 Programmer's Reference Manual, for the C128, in the C128 Programmer's Reference Manual. > Simon Gales@University of Ky -- Dave Haynie "The 32 Bit Guy" Commodore-Amiga "The Crew That Never Rests" {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!daveh PLINK: D-DAVE H BIX: hazy Amiga -- It's not just a job, it's an obsession

*MOST* of the 64/128's chips are made by MOS Technologies, owned by
Commodore...so I'm assuming that if you need any really specific information
about any single chip, you would write/call them (since they watch this
group, let's hear it from the source <hint hint>)...but if you just need the
pinouts, you could look in the Commodore 64 or Commodore 128 Programmer's
Reference Guide(s)....they, along with a number of other more technically-
oriented books, contain full pinouts and information..
