Does Intel still sell the 8080? Because I think they're code-compatible. Might even be pin-compatible.
The 8080 was discontinued in 1990. The Z80 is code compatible with the 8080, but the 8080 is not code compatible with the Z80. They are not pin compatible either. The pinouts are completely different, the 8080 needs 3 different power supply rails and 2 clocks.
