Science
of Cambridge : the new MK14.
Simplest, most advanced, most
flexible
microcomputer - in kit form.
The MK14 is a complete microcomputer with
a keyboard, a display, 8 x 512 byte pre-programmed PROMs,
and a 256-byte RAM programmable through the keyboard.
As such the MK14 can handle dozens of user-written
programs through the hexadecimal keyboard.
Yet in kit form, the MK14 costs only £
39.95 (+ £3.20 VAT and p & p).
More memory - and peripherals !
Optional extras include :
-
Extra RAM - 256 bytes
-
16 line RAM I/O device
(allowed for on the PCB) giving further 128 bytes of RAM.
-
Low-cost cassette
interface module - which means you can use ordinary tape
cassettes / recorder for storage of data and programs.
-
Revised monitor to
get the most from the cassette interface module. It consists
of two replacement PROMs, pre-programmed with sub-routines
for the interface, offset calculations and single step,
and single-operation data entry.
-
PROM programmer and
blank PROMs to set up your own pre-programmed dedicated
applications.
All are available now to owners of MK14.
A valuable tool - and a training aid.
As a computer it handles operations of all
types - from complex games to digital alarm clock functioning,
from basic maths to a pulse delay chain. Programs are in the
Manual, together with instructions for creating your own genuinely
valuable programs. And, of course its a superb education and
training aid - providing an ideal introduction to computer
technology.
