[net.micro.cpm] CMOS Z80s ?!

SECRIST%OAK.SAINET.MFENET@LLL-MFE.ARPA (09/04/85)

Does a 2 MHz, CMOS Z-80 pin-compatable microprocessor chip exist yet ?
If so, who makes it and what is it called ?  Thanks in advance.

Yes, its called a Z80 and you can get one from Toshiba. Look in the
latest EDN or Elect. Design. Some other japanese company is supposed to 
have a 4MHZ version out too. Also I believe Nat'l NSC-800 is cmos but 
don't know if it is pin compatible.

Zilog now has a CMOS Z-80 pin and function compatable. It is
called the Z84C00 and Z84C00-4 for Z-80 and Z-80A replacements,
respectively.  Icc is 25mA @ 4 Mhz and 10uA @ DC.. Quite a 
difference!
