Z80! A real blast from the past there. Did Zilog ever make a controller with that instruction set and microcontroller features? Yes, the 64HD180, or something like that. Nice processor, covered pretty extensively in Circuit Cellar over that last dew years. I believe it was only done in relatively full-blown versions - 48 pins up, with built in bank switching and dram controller, I think. CPM on a chip, a little too late. BillW
