Surely they have other Z80-compatible chips still for sale, right?
- 0xcde4c3db 3y agoThey have other chips that can run Z80 code (eZ80, Z180), but none that are drop-in compatible as far as I know. If you're looking at putting one of these in place of a Z80 you'd probably need to either redesign the surrounding computer or essentially treat it as a giant "peripheral" on a new firmware/kernel retooled for the new processor (like some "accelerator" products have done historically).
- mindcrime 3y agoThere is a QFP package Z80 chip that appears to still be active. https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/zilog/Z8401510FEG/929034 https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/zilog/Z8401510FEG...
