Basically, you get all the instructions and modes of a 65816, but with only 16 address lines. So there is no advantage over the 65816, except for being able to just install one in some 8 bit computers. Versus the 6502, 65C02 In Emulation mode, there is no advantage. It acts like a 65C02. In Native mode, 65C02 code runs pretty much unmodified, and it runs a bit faster due to some cleanups of extra read/write cycles. One way to get similar functionality is to ask nicely for you FastChip to be made with a 65816. It will perform like a 65802, due to how the card is itself implemented. And, of course, you can run up to 16Mhz! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnusfalkirk Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Thanks for the information. I might have to get a Fast Chip card eventually. Right now I have an Apple //c+, running at up to 4mhz and a ROM01 GS with an AppleSqueezer that is running at up to 14mhz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
