Emulators for Z80 and Z80 based Products

If there are emulators for Z80 family, you know of or you would like to point to, please tell me, or - even better - contact me if you are ready to maintain any "z80emu*" sub page not yet existing, nicely fitting into my Z80 series of documents.

z80em86 sources
z80em86 binaries
z80em86 is a Z80 CPU emulator with hardware emulation coded in Intel 86 assembly language designed to run under DOS.

Emulators (running on 32bit Windows)

ZEMU - Z80 Emulator by Joe Moore. This is the Z80 Emulator for 32 bit Windows Version 1.0.39

The Z80 Emulator is a full featured emulator designed to run CPM, Intended for Hobbyists.

Features include:
Z80, Z180, I8080 Instruction sets.
Disassembler for Zilog and/or Intel/TDL nmemonics
Instruction and Data Breakpoinits, Single Step, Trace, IO intercept, Debug Console.
Simple TTY, Timers, Interrupt ability
CRT emulator that can simulate many CRTS
Simulated Printer that produces RTF output.
Can access COM ports, Windows SPL for RAW printer files.
Disk Controller capable of accessing disk images availible for this and other emulators. (runs CPM 1.4, CPM 2.2, CPM 3, MPM 2, read and writes IMD files.)
Also, supports a subset of the simulated features of Z80SIM.(runs uscd pascal, CPM 2, CPM 3 and MPM 2)

Simulates some real hardware:
Simulates WD17xx FDC (can Write track(Format))
Cromemco 16/64FDC, Seven KZ64-II, TUART, PRI, 3102 (runs CDOS and CROMIX)
SD Sales VersaFloppy-II (runs SDOS)
Tarbel Single and Double Density FDC (runs CPM 1.4)
MIO, ACR, HSR, PIO

Can make network connections as client or server to allow multiple users simultaneously. This feature augments the serial port feature, which due to the obsolecence of serial ports is fading. Instead of terminals, you can connect with TelNet.

Drag-n-Drop Windows to CPM file transfers.

Disk Image Builder, New tool!
This is Version 2.0.4 of Disk Image Builder.

Disk Image builder is for Building Disk Images. While it also has several nice support features, the main purpose is to build Images, not edit disks.

Image Builder supports raw access to the System tracks and data tracks of various Z80 Emulator Disk Images.

Version 2 now supports Drag-n-Drop file tranfers from windows explorer to CPM filesystems on Z80 Disk Images.

Formats supported are IBM3740, PC1440, PC4104, PC8190 and 6 Jade DD image formats. These are the basic Images that the Z80 Emulator was designed to use. While the Z80 Emulator also supports many other Disk Image formats, Disk Image Builder is restricted to these.

The Z80 Emulator also supports Drag-n-Drop windows to CPM file transfers, so using the Z80 Emulator, you can transfer to any Disk Image Format that the Z80 Emulator can access.

Also, included are two programs to read VME10 formated VersaDOS and SYSV68 IMD disk images.

A couple of CP/M disk images are also available separately for the emulator:
Disk Images, 3.6M.
Contains bootable CPM2.2, bootable CPM3.0 banked and non-banked, bootable 8 user MPM2 and several work disks with bios source for the ZEMU emulator.
Sample disks for ZEMU:
- hard disk images from unix4fun.org
- IBM3740 package
- JadeDD - disk images for both old 48SPT single sided systems and for newer 50SPT Double sided Systems
- PC1440 package
- UCSD Pascal, disks from UDO MONK's site
- Adventure games: Adventure, source and binary, 4 pc1440 disks.
- Cromemco CDOS disks - Cromemco CDOS/CROMIX Disks- for use with the Z80 Emulator
- Tarbell CPM 1.4 disks - they run unmodified using an emulated Tarbell disk controller
- Intellec disks - un-modified disks for ISIS 4.x and CPM 2.2 that run on the Z80 Emulators implementation of the Intellec Series II and MDS-800 FDCs. Includes replacement PROMs specifically modified to use the Z80 Emulators I/O. Includes IO maps to map Intel hardware to the Z80 Emulator, DLOAD for downloading files onto an ISIS disk image, and ULOAD for uploading files to host.
- IMDOS disks - bootable IMDOS and CPM 1.31 disk for IMSAI.
- DSFDC1 disks, bootable proto-CPM 1975 compiled from original DRI sources.
- TurboDOS 1.43 - Contains TurboDOS 1.43, ported to Z80 Emulator. Also, contains Mario Viaro's TurboDOS 1.30 for z80 SIM (will also run on Z80 EMU)- New and improved version
NOTE! Please find Joe's Z80 ASM here.

CEF32. The Computer Emulation Framework (CEF) is an application framework specification for the purposes of emulating various computer hardware configurations in software.
Z80Emu. Z80Emu is a Windows based program to emulate a Z80 based computer system including serial I/O, terminal display, and printer plus much more.

Most user-friendly emulator; very good menu-interface and documentation.
Considered by many to be the best emulator available for any platform; certainly one of the best DOS-based ones with features unavailable in other emulators
