CHIP-8 is an interpreted programming language, developed by Joseph Weisbecker on his 1802 microprocessor. It was initially used on the COSMAC VIP and Telmac 1800, which were 8-bit microcomputers made in the mid-1970s. CHIP-8 was designed to be easy to program for, as well as using less memory than, other programming languages like BASIC. [1]

Chip-8 is a simple, interpreted, programming language which was first used on some do-it-yourself computer systems in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The COSMAC VIP, DREAM 6800, and ETI 660 computers are a few examples.

Awesome CHIP-8 A curated list of awesome CHIP-8 resources, tools, documentation, related projects and open source ROMs. Created in 1977, CHIP-8 is the original fantasy console. Initially designed to ease game development for the COSMAC VIP kit computer, it has enjoyed several revivals over the decades for new and exciting platforms.

2020年12月8日 · The interpreter, CHIP-8, was very simple to create but offered high-level features that were tedious to recreate in the native assembly language.

2021年5月20日 · We will be writing a CHIP-8 emulator for the modern computers. It will take a binary file (aka ROM, Read Only Memory) that a CHIP-8 Virtual Machine (VM) could read and execute it as if your PC was a CHIP-8 machine. CHIP-8? Let’s take a look at the CHIP-8 itself. What exactly is it?

About CHIP-8 and Super-Chip: CHIP-8 is a language interpreter used on the RCA TELMAC-1800 and COSMAC VIP computers in 1977, and some "make it yourself" hobbyist computers in the early 1980's. It is small, uses simple instructions and is …

CHIP-8 is an assembler, debugger, and emulator for the COSMAC ELF CHIP-8 interpreter and its derivative: the Super CHIP-8, which ran on HP-48 calculators. Everything is emulated as well as possible: the video display refreshes at 60 Hz and sound is emulated as well.

Chip-8 is an interpreted programming language from the 1970s. It ran on the COSMAC VIP, and supported many programs such as Pac-Man, Pong, Space Invaders, and Tetris. We aim to create a processor using SystemVerilog and the FPGA on the SoCKit board that runs these programs.

In this article we introduce the Chip-8 system. We also cover some information to help us get ready to write a Chip-8 emulator.

The Chip8 is a very simple system, originally created as an interpretter for an 8 bit CPU in the 1970s. While Chip8 is not a physical system, it operates very much like a virtual CPU. Building a Chip8 emulator or interpretter requires the same sort of logic as building an emulator for a physical system.
