Interesting--so they're apparently using a
"naked" totem-pole output
stage with no pullup. Interesting--I thought that Zilog always
specified at least a 10K pullup on the clock input.
Rules were made to be broken, I guess.
I haven't gone and checked, but I do
recall pretty clearly that they
specify a 330 ohm pullup on the clock line of a Z80, not 10K.

All the circuits (including the Zilog manuals) I've seen use a 330 ohm or
CMOS (rail to rail drive), or something like the 75452 drivers. The key
thing is the clock must get to 4.75V nominal (4.4V minimum) with a
reasonable rise time and fall times for the clock speed. Most TTl will
not go much above 3.4-3.6V without help (pull up).
