Supported Devices
- SC140 Z180 SBC / Z50Bus card
- Z180 CPU (eg. Z8S180xx)
- Z180’s asynchronous serial ports
- SD card at 0x0C
- Real Time Clock at 0x0C
- Status LEDs at 0xA0
- Compact Flash at 0x90 for loading CP/M
The lack of specific support does not exclude the use of other hardware. It just means the ROM does not do anything specific with it.
Supported Modules
- Processor and memory:
- Memory:
- Serial ports:
- Baud rate generation:
- Mass storage (SD card, port 0x0C):
- Mass storage (CF card, port 0x90)
