The MCS-8 (SIM8-01) is a complete byte-oriented computing system featuring Intel 8008 CPU, 1KB of RAM and 2KB of ROM memory. The system was introduced in 1972 and was designed
to test and program the 1702 electrically programmable and erasable ROMs. The SIM8-01 board is equipped with 8 PROM cockets wich could be used to load a bootstrap loader
to load and execute programs in RAM, MCS-8 Fortran Assembler and Simulator, or SIM8 hardware assembler.
