For sale is a true emulator-clone of the original MITS ALTAIR 8800computer. It uses an ARDUINO DUE model to faithfully emulate a 2Mhz Intel8080A processor and memory which was the original CPU used by MITS 40 years ago. The Arduino Due is an impressive32-bit 84Mhz system-on-a-chip which provides for the full 8080's 64K address space as well as additional flash ROM storage. Itruns open-source code and is fully supported online. Comes with a micro SD card, audio jack, Bluetooth or serial port.

The original Altair front panel was a rack mount 4U approximately 16 by 6.5 inches. This replica is 10.4 (265mm) by 5.1 (130mm) inches. Encased in 5mm Plexiglass (also called Acrylic or Perspex)

An included ordinary micro SD card is pre-loadedwith programs such as CPM2.2, Zork and MSBasic. It can also run Kill-the-Bit, Othello, StarTrekand other legacy games. The use of the two AUX switches selects the many functions and even includes an interactive on screen 8080 assembly language debugger for showing registers, examine memory, single step and more.

Comes ready to plug and go. Not a KIT! Guaranteed to work perfectly the very first time. No hassles. No need to worry about cold solder joints, assembly or testing problems and troubleshooting. Needs only a standard micro-USB cable (plugged into PROGRAMMING PORT) and a 9-12VDC (optional) power adapter which are not included. Will need to use a terminal emulation program.

This item complete, tested and burned-in with a correctly programmed Arduino Due. Please search for “David Hansel Altair” on the internet for much more information on his brilliant work under GNU GPL.

Designed, assembled and supported by an experienced American engineer from Silicon Valley, California using modern CAD (Computer Aided Design) tools: Orcad and Protel. Professional, industrial-strength (not hobby) quality. See example of the PCB layout in the photos.

Shipped worldwide via AIRMAIL REGISTERED with tracking number. Payment by PayPal only. Please ask seller for any additional information.
