Untitled[edit]

Should the Game Boy be listed as a use of the Z80? The Game Boy page contradicts this describing the processor as a custom Sharp. A derivative of the 8080 and Z80 but not a Z80. — Preceding unsigned comment added by EdwardCawley (talk • contribs) 10:01, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Logo needs updating[edit]

Currently, the official website https://zilog.com shows a logo that says:

zilog
A Littelfuse Company

Since 2019, apparently, Littelfuse has replaced the name of its subsidiary IXYS in the Zilog logo with its own name. Someone with a WP account should update the logo in this article, or at least delete the IXYS reference from it. It probably would also be a good idea to review and update, as appropriate, the other data in the infobox at this time; some of it is over 10 years stale. 173.49.17.172 (talk) 07:00, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Created by VectorVoyager (talk). Self-nominated at 23:39, 10 February 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Zilog; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Sorry, VectorVoyager, but the article is ineligible for DYK, please see the WP:Did you know/Guidelines. The article lacks newness as it was created in 2002 and has not been edited since December 2023. Nor has it been promoted to good article status within the past seven days, in addition to the maintenance tag on questionable factual inaccuracy since 2012. Overall, the article needs more citations from independent reliable sources (see WP:No original research) and the History section needs reduction of proseline. ~~lol1 VNIO (I made a mistake? talk to me) 10:34, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
