Am I correct
in thinking this is a pdp-8 compatible processor?
Can you build a pdp-8 clone like the sbc6120 using these?
Yes you can, but real PDP 8 I/O and memory over 4kw require other
support chips. Also since the chip is CMOS speed and output drive
is limited. Until you can get a data sheet on the devices it may
be wise to not get the chips. Intersel made the 6100's first I think.
You can find the Harris 6100 datasheet here...
