I Just saw this on Zophar domain:
"22:57: James Pratt recently sent us this information about a product his
company (Cyber Labo Ltd. Japan) been working on:
Hiya,
I thought I would drop you a line to tell you about our companies Z80
synthesisable core. We call it the VLP80, it is a pipelined design with a
pre-fetch buffer for opcodes / operands. Most instructions execute in just
one clock cycle. It is the most advanced Z80 core available.
We feel that there is still a lot of milage in the Z80. People have
experience of
using it and their are many software tools about that support software
developement for it.
Our processor builds on the Z80 tradition. We estimate it to be between
15 and 20 times faster than the original Z80 when clocked at the same speed.
If you're a Z80 freak and interested in the VLP80, check out their home
page (http://www.cyber-labo.co.jp/vmodel_en.html)"
Am I wrong or this is really a reason to celebrate?
