6502 CPU vs Bulgarian clone

A comparison between a 6502 CPU and its Bulgarian clone CM630P.

What Russian Kazachok and Soviet anthem have to do with Bulgaria?

[JaquelineVanek]

heh, Ivan Marangozov, there used to be a joke that ИМКО-2 is a capitalisation from the bulgarian for "Ivan Marangozov Copies the Original ...second try", "Иван Марангозов Копира Оригинала... вори път". IMKO-2 machines were renamed to and more popular under the name of Pravetz 82, clones of Aplle II as mentioned in the video

I didn’t understand only one thing. What does Bulgaria have to do with the Soviet Union? :)

From around 4:13, there seems to be artifacts around the large numbers on the clone screen that aren't there on the genuine screen. Are you able to re-run the demo on the clone system and confirm it's not just me that's seeing it? (could be video compression artifacts during upload)

I own dozens of New - Old Stock CM630P ICs, with a number of them being used in a number of projects.

1:20 hahah LOl 😂😆 Bulgaria is not USSR, but OK 😁😂
Bay the way USSR made 8088 clones and not one but several

This was fascinating, I would like to know more about eastern block computer science history.

The actual content of the video starts at 03:50

4:13 - random pixel is blinking on the left of numbers and also some above numbers. You can see it even earlier, but it's not that visible

edit: noticed somebody already mentioned it and got answer, same time, scroll down

Wow, that close in zoom and pan brought back the MEMORIES! I remember stroking my fingers around those curves back in the day. I can feel it now after seeing that! Oh the "RESTORE" key .. I had forgotten about that one!

W..WAT??? vic20 have 6522 at second socket? not 6526? but what he have in the first socket? quality of picture is not so good =(

[pickoftheglitter]

yep. I bought a bunch of 10or more some years ago, since they were quite cheaper than the 6502 at that time. I used them in some VIC-20, at least one 1541, and some PET (2001/N, 2032, 8032 etc.). They work absolutely fine, I've never had any problem. Not sure if in some extreme circumstances they can go wrong, but until now I'm totally satisfied, and I'm saving the original MOS 6502 for future needs.

[jarisipilainen]

clone or whatever it just prosessor that have same op codes. yeah clone but could be diff. and 6502 nothing todo with graphics. even clone 6502 it would not look same if graphic card is diff. so this is computer clone. not 6502 specific

My first intro to computers I remember saying this straight Garbage. Then I met my the love of my life nes Nintendo. To me a computer just tool like screw driver or hammer. I once throw brand new laptop in dumpster because there was no sound on YouTube. My reason was it's going cost me to much time figure this out. Mother board to me looks like Google maps air view or tiny city.

As I was a kid back then when that clone was produced in Bulgaria it is really hard to find honest information about the technology and how they copied it but the fact is they did manufacture it somehow and it is unclear who were the people who did it. There are some engineers claiming this was their baby but we all know it can't be only a bunch of people involved, probably some samples were bought from the USA and brought illegally for examination thanks to the Intelligence back then.

[JCMayPE]

If it worked differently, it would not be much of a clone, now, would it? ;)

[DrDavesDiversions]

Nice job showing us this Soviet Apple II clone!
