The attractive boxed micro-professor is a Z80 based microcomputer to lead you step by step to a thorough knowledge of the world of microprocessors.

The Micro-Professor is a complete hardware and software system whose extensive teaching manual gives you detailed schematics and examples of program code the Micro-Professor is much more than a teaching device.

With it you can do bread-boarding and prototyping, designing your own custom hardware and software application with Z80, 8080 and 8085 compatible code.

The standard 2K bytes of RAM is expandable to 4K, and the standard 2K bytes of ROM can be increased to 8K.

All this plus a built-in speaker, a cassette interface, and sockets to accept optional CTC/PIO.

Bus is extendable.

As well as being an exciting learning tool, the Micro-Professor is a great low-cost board for OEM\'s. MPF-Basic software is included in the ROM.
