Description
Microprocessor targeting embedded industrial control systems. Uses a z80 core available at opencores as T80. It is in early development stages. It is currently being developed with a Altera Cyclone II FPGA Starter Board (DE1). The idea is to have a system that will communicate to a PLC and a PC via serial interface. This allows the ability to expand peripherials on a PLC while giving the user PC control from a visual enviroment using custom software.
