[1] The Z180 family adds higher performance and integrated peripheral functions like clock generator, 16-bit counters/timers, interrupt controller, wait-state generators, serial ports and a DMA controller.
[2] It uses separate read and write strobes, sharing similar timings with the Z80 and Intel processors.
[4] The Zilog Z80182, introduced in 1997, is an enhanced, faster version of the older Z80 and is part of the Z180 microprocessor family.
It is nicknamed the Zilog Intelligent Peripheral Controller (ZIP).
It is also fully static (the clock can be halted and no data in the registers will be lost)[citation needed] and has a low EMI option that reduces the slew rate of the outputs.
