While doing some research on an old SBC I noticed that it used the internal clock option on the 6502. Does anybody have any info on resistor/cap values to use for this setup? Has anybody done this?

Sure. One I've been using frequently has a 5.6K from pin 3 to pin 37 of the DIP, and a 76pF (56pF + 20pF in parallel) from pin 37 to pin 39. This gives about 900kHz. A product we sold a lot of uses 68pF instead of 76pF, giving about 1MHz. I haven't tried to see how high you can go in frequency doing it this way. You can also put a crystal directly on the pins. The method is in the data sheet. This is not recommended for the higher clock rates, but works fine at a MHz or two.

Vince,

The only reference I could find for using an RC network was in the WDC 65C02 datasheet under the caviots section (towards the rear)

Quote:
Crystal or RC network will oscillate when
connected between PHI2 and PHI10.

where PHI2= pin 37 and PHI1O= pin 3

Hope that helps.

Daryl

Hey Daryl, thanks for the info. Actually, I have hi-res scans of an old OSI-300 SBC that uses this setup. I'm going to reverse engineer it from the photo's (not that easy).
