If memory serves Voyager uses the old RCA 1802 8-bit cpu.

This is the same processor that was on the old COSMAC ELF board... if you are a geek and old enough you may have had an ELF.. I did :-)

More images of the ELF, which used the same CPU as Voyager. I remember that issue of Popular Electronics, I may still have it somewhere....

Me too. Loved it. Used it for quite a lot of projects over the years.

I do recall the 1802 was considered radiation hardened.
