SAPI-80

Designed by Ing. Eduard Smutný, TESLA Strašnice.It was manufactured from 1983 by Tesla Strašnice. The computer was inspired by or was successor to Intel MDS 80. Hardware is based on MHB8080A, UB880D.Operating systems running on the computer: ISIS-II,CP/M.

Contents
The SAPI80 system started with the 8080 processor, then they made an adapter (an auxiliary board that slid into the socket after the 8080 and 8228 and had the U880D on it, later they made a new board again with the 8080 and then a board with the Z80

Clone according to the possibilities of the component base, but SW fully compatible. even the description of the processor card SAPI-80/01 is 80% literal translation of the original Intel manual, MULTIBUS bus, the first boards had a bus controller from several IOs, later boards used a copy of the intel i8218 controller from the USSR.

SW is then on OS ISIS II, CPM, PASCAL80, BASIC80, PL/M 80, FORTRAN 80, MBASIC, MFORTRAN

System Description

The JVS 80-B development system units include:

Floppy disk subsystem, composed of:

Cabinet SKR 80

For placing up to four panel units from the SAPI 80 file.

Eight connection cables:

1 piece of cable 4 XV 988 098 for connecting the JPR 80/01-A board with the AND 16 A display.

1 piece of cable 4 XV 988 114 for connecting the JPR 80/11 board to the RFD flexible disk controller.

2 pcs of cable 4 XV 988 086 with a length of 1.5 m for connecting peripherals.

2 pcs of cable 4 XV 988 093 with a length of 2 m for connecting peripherals.

2 pcs of cable 4 XV 988 094 with a length of 4 m for connecting peripherals.

The set can be supplemented with peripherals that connect directly to the JPR 80/01 microcomputer board:

Software

To work with a small universal microcomputer system with flexible disks, it is possible to order the operating system ISYS II with flexible disks 4 XV 141 701, which includes:

Operating system and translators of higher programming languages.

Monitor for operating basic peripherals (stored in EPROM memory on the JPR 80/01 microcomputer board).

Manuals are part of the software:

Inaccuracies/doubts related to the topic

The model was an Israeli computer - a clone of the Intel MDS 80, not the Intel MDS 80 itself. The exact name of the computer is unknown.
