- Note: The terms 'emulator', 'interpreter' and 'simulator' are used interchangeably by developers of CHIP-8 interpreters.
CHIP-8 is an interpreted programming language, developed by Joseph Weisbecker.
CHIP-8 was designed to use little memory, Joseph Weisbecker comparing a program he created in CHIP-8 to one in BASIC. With the CHIP-8 implentation using less memory.
Microcomputers with CHIP-8 support are listed here, for other implentations see interpreters
Adoption
- There have been multiple communities that have used CHIP-8.
In the late 1970s to 1980s microcomputer kit communities are where CHIP-8 was first popular.
This is due to systems like the COSMAC VIP endorsing and including CHIP-8 programs.[2] In these communities CHIP-8 programs and extensions were being shared with newsletters, like 'DREAMER' and 'VIPER magazine'
Later, in the 1990s CHIP-8 began to be popular on graphing calculators. This community started when a CHIP-8 interpreter called CHIP-48, the origin the 'CHIP-48' extension was released on the HP-48 in 1990. In 1991 the 'SUPER-CHIP' interpreter was created, with the 'SUPER-CHIP' extension being a derivative of CHIP-48.[3]
There have been other communities that have created and ported interpreters, devices such as consoles. With interpreters still being made for consoles and computers, as well as many other old and new devices. In the 2010s the Octojam competition started with the creation of XO-CHIP, which was created in 2014[4]. Octojam ran from 2014-2023, [5] had dozens of CHIP-8, S-CHIP, and XO-CHIP programs created for it.
CHIP-8 extensions
- For detailed information on CHIP-8 extensions see: CHIP-8 extensions and compatibility
- Extensions to CHIP-8 have existed since the 1970s.
CHIP-8, and its extensions are based on implementing opcodes in interpreters.[6] The original CHIP-8 being the most supported, with the most supported extensions being S-CHIP and XO-CHIP.
When extensions change the behavior of an opcode it makes the specific opcode when used incompatible with other extensions, most derivative extensions try to maintain backward compatibility with 'parent' extension. If commonly used or many opcodes' behavior is change it will large incompatibilities with extensions.
- List of notable extensions
For the COSMAC VIP: CHIP-10, Hi-res CHIP-8, CHIP-8E, CHIP-8X
For other HP-48: CHIP-48, SUPER-CHIP (1.0 and 1.1)
For other platforms: XO-CHIP
Computers with CHIP-8 support
- For more information on these computers, see List of computers.
- Devices with official/endorsed or other well-known CHIP-8 support.
These devices include: DREAM 6800, COSMAC VIP, HUG1802/ETI-660, Oscom Nano, Telmac 1800, Telmac 2000, V-ELF, VIP2K Membership Card.
