CP/M-80 running on a 16mhz z180 is far more interesting. ;-)
Bear in mind:
- Z180s now do up to 33MHz
- The average 128Kx8 15 ns SRAM
- is fast enough to run at 33MHz with no wait states
- contains enough on-board logic to do address decoding in a simple
Z180 system
Sigh; I see ads in Circuit Cellar for folks that take 68HC12s in
surface-mount packages and mount them on an adapter board for folks that
want through-hole parts. Anyone know of someone doing the same thing with
either the Z182 (or, better yet, the Z195) or at least generic footprints
of the appropriate size?
