Hey all... I
am currently in the process of designing (and hopefully later
building) a
dual Z80 laptop. The datasheets don't tell me
near enough... schematics
would be
much better... the problem is most homebuilt
computers seem to revlove
around
the 6502 family (at least those on the 'net
do). If anyone could point me
to where
I can find some Z80 schematics I'd greatly
apprieciate it.
There have been a bunch of Z-80 projects over the years. Two books that
describe Z-80 construction projects are:
Z-80 Microcomputer Design Projects, by William Barden, Jr., Sams, 1980
Build Your Own Z80 Computer, by Steve Ciarcia, Byte Books, 1981
One other thought: just pick up a Texas Instruments 83+ calculator --
it has a Z-80 as its CPU.
