zilog z8000 การใช้

• A Zilog Z8000 port of Coherent was also used by the canceled Commodore 900 system.
• The C900 was a 16-bit computer based on the segmented version of the Zilog Z8000 server with text-only display.
• For the CPU, numerous options were explored, including the Intel 80186 and National Semiconductor NS16032, Motorola 68000 and Zilog Z8000.
• :: : : : Confession time here : in my first job I had to write a report comparing the then newly-released 8086 and the Zilog Z8000 microprocessors.
• Simulations using a variety of small programs compared the 4 MHz RISC I to the 5 MHz 32-bit VAX 11 / 780 and the 5 MHz 16-bit Zilog Z8000 showed this clearly.
• That year the two companies also jointly established Advanced Micro Computers, located in Silicon Valley and in Germany, giving AMD an opportunity to enter the microcomputer development and manufacturing field, in particular based on AMD's second-source Zilog Z8000 microprocessors.
• Microcomputer Unix became commercially available in 1980, when Onyx Systems released its Zilog Z8000-based C8002 and Microsoft announced its first Unix for 16-bit microcomputers called Xenix, which the Santa Cruz Operation ( SCO ) ported to the 8086 processor in 1983.
• The system was identical to the A 5120, with the addition of two additional boards, one with a U8000 16-bit microprocessor ( a Zilog Z8000 clone ), and one with 256KiB DRAM . The original 8-bit system functioned as an I / O subsystem.
• The A 5120.16 upgrade included two new circuit boards, one with a 16-bit U8001 processor ( clone of Zilog Z8000 ), and the other with 256KiB of additional RAM . The original 8-bit system functioned as a terminal to the 16-bit system.
• In some early microprocessor designs, memory management was performed by a separate integrated circuit such as the VLSI VI475 ( 1986 ), the Motorola 68851 ( 1984 ) used with the Motorola 68020 CPU in the Macintosh II, or the Z8015 ( 1985 ) used with the Zilog Z8000 family of processors.
• The " 8000 " contained in the name of Altos'first series of computer did cause some confusion in the marketplace because its name may have suggested the inclusion of the 16-bit Zilog Z8000 processor, which had just been released in 1979, although Altos'ACS-8000 did not use this processor, but the older 8-bit Z80.
• The company planned to over time improve MS-DOS so it would be almost indistinguishable from single-user Xenix, or " XEDOS ", which would also run on the Motorola 68000, Zilog Z8000, and the LSI-11; they would be Byte " in 1983 described as " the multi-user MS-DOS of the future ".
