  Jupiter Ace Resource Site - Z80A chip info
Used by the CPU to signal to external devices that the system buses are in the high impedance state and available for their use.
The Z80A CPU contains 18 8-bit and four 16-bit registers, jointly constituting a total of 208 bits of read/write memory accessible to the programmer.
The contents of the R register are sent to the lower eight bits of the address bus during the refresh period.

 World of Spectrum - Documentation - ZX Spectrum +3 - Chapter 8, Part 30
Hardware The +3 is designed around the Z80A microprocessor, which runs at a speed of 3.5469MHz (about three and half million cycles per second).
For the contended RAM (which shares time between the video circuitry and the processor), during 128 out of every 228 CPU T states (1 TV line), and during 192 out of every 311 TV lines (1 frame) the CPU is allowed only 1 access to contended RAM in every 8 T states.
It converts bytes in memory into patterns and colours on the screen, and allows the Z80A to scan the keyboard and read and write data to tape.

 Magic Computer.
Here is a machine with both 6502 and Z80A microporcessors, 64K of RAM, dual, double density, double sided disk drives, and detachable keyboard all in a portable package.
The Z80A can access the main 64K memory, 8K of which is devoted to the operating system and 56K of which is available for user programs.
Freeing the Z80A from the task of refreshing the video should result in a significant increase in execution speed in many programs.

  Bill Haygood   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The Z80A emulator has passed some pretty severe CPU tests which vigorously test ALL the bits of the Flags byte (even the undocumented bits 3 and 5).
For example, the Z80A instruction: LD BC,1234H has an opcode byte of 01H followed by the bytes 34H and 12H (the Z80A is a little-endian machine).
The instruction byte (01H) is used to index into the instruction dispatch table which then sends control directly to the 01H instruction emulator function which retrieves the next two bytes, advances the PC and stores the bytes in the emulated B and C registers.

  MTX500 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Memotech MTX500, MTX512 and RS128 were a series of Zilog Z80A processor-based home computers released by Memotech in 1983 and 1984.
Although the Z80A could only address a maximum of 64KB at a time, the RS128's extra memory was accessible via assembly language programming via the technique of page switching.
The computers featured an all-aluminum case and full size keyboard with real keys (unlike others of the same vintage such as the Sinclair ZX Spectrum).

 Epson QX-10; the friendliest computer around.
The Z80A CPU operates at a moderate 4MHz clock rate, but it is unable to access a remarkable (for an 8-bit machine) 256K of RAM under Valdocs (only 64K in the CP/M version), 2K of CMOS RAM supported by a backup battery, and up to 8K of ROM housing the basic boot routines.
Actually, the main unit of the QX-10 has even more memory than is available to the Z80A.
The keyboard is unconditionally excellent; it ranks with the best units I have handled in terms of stroke, feel, appearance, and arrangement, and the HASCI architecture makes operating the Valdocs system both logical and easy.

 The Lil Old ZX Spectrum 48k Service Manual - Section 1
The architecture of the Spectrum shown above is typical of many microcomputer systems in that it comprises a single microprocessor board (in this instance a Z80A or u780 CPU), a read only memory (ROM), an expandable RAM memory and an input/output section handling the keyboard, tape and TV display functions.
The latter is recognisable as the logic gate array (ULA) and the three functional blocks shown in the right of the diagram.
The keyboard matrix is part of the upper case assembly and is connected to the board via two ribbon cables KB1 and KB2.

 STD202
The MICRO-LINK STD205 is a powerful, multi-function processor board based on the Z80A CPU and interfaced to the STD Bus.
In addition to the Z80A CPU, the card features six sockets for EPROM or Static RAM and four programmable counter/timer channels.
The STD205 utilizes a Z80A microprocessor which functions as the system controller by fetching, decoding and executing instructions in memory and by generating the required signals between the CPU and memory or I/O. The card provides six sockets for RAM or EPROM.

 JohnnyGil's Emulation Page
For instance, in a ZX Spectrum emulator, a modest computer, with only one major processing component, the Zilog Z80A CPU, the PC actually has to be delayed to get an accurate emulation speed.
If you try to emulate a Sega Genesis* or SNES, the emulator usually wants as much processing power as possible (the Genesis uses the Z80A too, but only as a sound processor; there are several other chips that need to be emulated).
Emulating a Sega Saturn or a Sony Playstation is, I believe, impossible for now, due to the huge complexity of these machines, although a couple of Playstation emulators are being developed.
