  Zilog - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Zilog, often seen as ZiLOG, is a manufacturer of 8-bit CPUs, and is most famous for its Intel 8080-compatible Z80 series.
Zilog was incorporated in California in 1974 by Federico Faggin, who left Intel after working on the 8080, and the Z80 was a vast improvement over it (it was faster, etc.).
After the Z80 Zilog introduced 16-bit and 32-bit processors, but these were not particularly successful, and the company refocused on the microcontroller market, producing both basic CPUs and application-specific integrated circuits/standard products (ASICs/ASSPs) built around a CPU core.

Although Zilog made several attempts to move off the Z80 onto more powerful 16-bit (Zilog Z800, Zilog Z8000, Zilog Z180, Zilog Z280) and 32-bit (Zilog Z80000, Zilog Z380) platforms, other companies were offering CPUs in this performance range years earlier, and the Zilog chips never caught on.
Zilog’s most recent CPU is the Zilog eZ80, a faster Z80 with a 24 MB addressing range.
The Zilog Z80 has also become a popular embedded microprocessor and microcontroller core, where it remains in widespread use today.

Zilog is presently only shipping sample quantities, and word from the people who call me is that they no longer will ship the samples free of charge.
It certainly appears that the 1mb dram and the Z280 processor are basically in the same state (sampling), therefore, it is not unreasonable to expect that when we have good quantity of one, we will have the other.
The Z280 divides the "basic" clock speed of 10 mhz down by 2 again (the external XTAL speed divided by 4) and outputs this as the Z80 bus clock.

On the Z280, the instruction time cannot even be measured reliably; The cache and pipeline make the time to execute an instruction dependent on the "history" of activity before.
Although the best solution is to directly REPLACE the Z80 by the Z280, for people who do not have specific details on their machine (schematics and software listings) or the expertise to diagnose problems, a virtually 100% compatible solution is provided by the coprocessor version of the adapter board.
When the Z280 requires I/O service, a "request" packet is passed to the Z80 CPU, which reads or writes the requested data, and returns the results to the Z280 CPU.

Zilog shrunk (they were once owned by Exxon!) because they went from 1 8 bit Z80 hugely successful processor to a pure 16 bit processor (Z8000?).
Zilog has added more instructions and changed mnemonics, but the basic core of instructions works the same and has the same opcodes in both 8080 and Z80.
Zilog adopted a different (and more logical) set of mnemonics, possibly because Intel claimed that the 8080 mnemonics were copyrighted.

The Z280 runs all Z80 instructions (and therefore all 8080 instructions) and includes an expanded set of 45 new instructions plus additional addressing modes.
The Zilog Z280 is a highly integrated CPU, major functions are a paged memory-management unit with a 256-byte data and instruction cache, three-stage instruction pipelining, a four-channel DMA controller, three 16-bit counter/timers, a six-stage wait-state generator, a DRAM refresh controller, and a high-speed UART with rates up to 2.5 mHz.
The Ultraboard's Z280 on-board Cache Memory automatically stores all recently used instructions and/or data, so the processor has instant access to them for memory fetches, and subsequent disk and memory accesses are eliminated.

Communication between processors is accomplished via an 8 bit "inter - CPU" communications chip (in fact, a registered bi - directional transceiver).
The main incompatibility between the Z280 (in the Z80 bus mode) and the Z80 is the action of the M1 signal.
Having examined the "Z800" advance specification (in late 1985), and having obtained a 256kb memory board, I set up a quick fix that would carry forward readily to the Z280.

I managed to produce a surprisingly complete implementation, despite the Z80's measly 64K memory and lack of memory management or protection hardware.
Soon afterwards I upgraded my CP/M computer system to a Zilog Z280 processor, which had fairly fancy memory management (for a 16-bit machine, at least) and supported user and system modes.
(Unfortunately Zilog botched up the Z280 developement so badly that the chip came out years late and very buggy, just as 80X86 processors and PCs became ubiquitous.)
