The Zilog Z80 is an 8-bit microprocessor designed by Zilog that played an important role in the evolution of early computing. Launched in 1976, it was designed to be software-compatible with the Intel 8080 , offering a compelling alternative due to its better integration and increased performance.
TRSDOS (which stands for the Tandy Radio Shack Disk Operating System) is the operating system for the Tandy TRS-80 line of eight-bit Zilog Z80 microcomputers that were sold through Radio Shack from 1977 through 1991.
The Z80 Operating System with Relocatable Modules and I/O Management (Z80-RIO) is a general-purpose operating system developed by Zilog in the late 1970s for various computer systems including the Z80 Micro Computer System (MCZ-1) series [1] and the Z80 Development System (ZDS). [2]
Zilog subsequently announced an agreement to manufacture the WE32100 chipset for a five year period, being the first alternative source of these products. [52] There was a Z8000 version of the Xenix Operating System. [53] In 1982, Digital Research and Zilog announced an agreement to make CP/M available for the Z8000. [54]
The Z-2 was a Z80–based microcomputer system that was introduced in 1977. The original Z-2 in kit form included a ZPU-K Z80 CPU card, S-100 bus motherboard , all-metal rack-mount chassis and dust case, card socket and card guide; the assembled form included a complete set of sockets and card guides, and a cooling fan.
Zeus is a two-pass assembler which uses the standard Zilog Z80 instruction set mnemonics. It was one of the first assemblers to tokenise source code as it is entered, along with MAC/65 for the Atari 8-bit computers , similar to how many BASIC implementations work.
The Micro-Professor MPF-I is a microcomputer released by the US Government (later renamed Acer) in 1981.The company's first branded product, it was marketed as a training system to learn machine code and assembly language for the Zilog Z80 microprocessor.
The Dick Smith Super-80 was a Zilog Z80 based kit computer developed as a joint venture between Electronics Australia magazine and Dick Smith Electronics.. It was presented as a series of construction articles in Electronics Australia magazine's August, September and October 1981 issues.
