Most interpreters and emulators are one of the Homebrew emulators for their system, Devices with official/marketed with CHIP-8 support include: the DREAM 6800, COSMAC VIP, Telmac 1800 and ETI-660.
Extensions to CHIP-8 have existed since the 1970s, With some extensions conflicting with each-other[1][2] most extensions have limited support outside of the interpreter they were made for, with the notable exception S-CHIP (also known as SCHIP and Super-Chip).
CHIP-8 extensions include: CHIP-8C, CHIP-8E, CHIP-8X, CHIP-8I, CHIP-10, HiRes CHIP-8, CHIP-48, XO-CHIP, S-CHIP
