Anyone hacked their Z-80 with a analog meter yet?
Seems the easiest
(just pull off of the M1 line).
That'd give you a fairly constant reading...not very exciting.
Not many Z80 systems have variable clock rates. Though building one
wouldn't be difficult.
Way back when, I developed a Z-80 based embedded unit complete with a
simple RTOS. The load indication on that was the HALT line, since it
was completely interrupt driven. An analogue voltmeter was a good for
checking that all was well inside.
