6502 8-Bit Microprocessor (40-Pin CPU) The 6502 is a classic 8-bit microprocessor widely used in early arcade hardware and computer systems. This 40-pin DIP CPU served as the primary processor for many classic arcade PCBs and is responsible for executing the game program, processing player inputs, and controlling overall system timing. Many Atari arcade boards rely on the 6502 processor to manage gameplay logic and communicate with other hardware components such as ROM chips, RAM, and video circuitry. A working CPU is essential for proper board operation, making the 6502 a common replacement component during arcade PCB repair and restoration. Key Features 6502 8-bit microprocessor Standard 40-pin DIP (Dual In-line Package) Commonly used in classic arcade PCBs Handles game logic, timing, and hardware control Ideal for arcade board troubleshooting and repair Used In Arcade Games Such As Asteroids Battlezone Centipede Tempest Warlords Missile Command Gravitar Red Baron Because the 6502 processor was widely adopted by Atari and other arcade manufacturers, it appears on many classic arcade boards from the late 1970s and early 1980s. Installation Notes Installs in a standard 40-pin DIP socket Carefully align the notch orientation when installing Recommended for technicians performing arcade PCB repair or restoration *Manufacturer brands may vary.
40-Pin Socket Specifications This 40-pin DIP socket is designed for reliable installation of integrated circuits and arcade daughter boards that use a standard 40-pin layout. Using a socket allows the chip or module to be easily removed or replaced without soldering directly to the PCB, helping protect the board during upgrades, repairs, or troubleshooting. Pin Pitch: 2.54 mm (0.100″) standard DIP spacing Total Pins: 40 pins arranged in two rows (2×20) Mounting Type: Through-hole (THT) for secure soldered installation Compatibility: Designed for standard 40-pin DIP integrated circuits and modules Installation Benefit: Allows ICs to be inserted or removed without repeated soldering Use Case: Ideal for arcade PCB upgrades, ROM installations, and repair work The standard 2.54 mm (0.100″) pin spacing matches the layout used on most classic arcade PCBs and DIP integrated circuits. Once soldered to the board, the socket provides a stable connection while allowing the chip to be safely inserted and removed when needed.
