What is Z80 CPU?


The Z80 CPU, first produced in 1976, is an 8-bit processor. It has 8 bit data, 16 bit addressing capacity.
This means that it can address 64 KBytes.
Z80, a processor still used today, continues to be produced to operate at different speeds (4 MHz, 6 MHz, 10 MHz, 20 MHz, ...).


In addition to the 40-pin DIP model, it is also produced in QFP, LQFP, QFN, PLCC package standards.


Pins: INT, NMI, HALT, MREQ, IORQ, RD,WR, BUSACK, WAIT, BUSREQ, M1, RFSH, CLK

Registers:
AF :  Accumulator and Flag register (A+F)
BC : 16-bit register that can be divided into two (B+C; 8+8)
