TV80 is a Z80-compatible synthesizable Verilog core.

The TV80 core aims to be an area-efficient core which closely mimics the original operation and cycle timing of the Zilog Z80. The core has been used by the author/porter in multiple silicon tape-outs as a utility processor or programmable state machine.

The top level wrapper is the tv80s, which presents a synchronous interface where all signals transition on the positive edge of the clock.

A Dockerfile is provided for hosting verification tools for the project. To build the container and run it use the following commands:

docker build -t tvtools .
docker run -it -v <prj_folder>:/app -w /app tvtools

# Build all tests
docker run -it -v <prj_folder>:/app -w /app tvtools sh -c "(cd tests; make)"
