- Looking for auto baud detection code (Z80, pascal, etc.) for for a
   Zilog SCC (Z8530/Z8030) or SIO???

- Looking for a good source for Zilog chips. I need Z8530's (10Mhz),
   and Z84C13 IPC's. I define good as a supplier that:
      - Has the chips
      - Can do COD or preferably VISA
      - Doesn't mind 5/10/15 quantities (I want at least 5 of everything!!)

The Z84x1x IPC are new "Intelligent Peripheral Controllers".  They
have a 10Mhz Z80, SIO, CTC, Watch Dog timer, PIO (on some models), and
clock generator, wait state generator, and auto power on reset (some
models).  All of this in a 84-pin PLCC or 100 pin quad flat pack!!!

From my point of view, these chips give the 8051/6811/etc.
microcontrollers a run for their money!!
