Yes. What I have implimented is not only a tool to test processor designs
but a complete if minimal ICE for the processor.

All for less than the price of any ICE box on the market.

The Z-80 is the loader and ICE manager.

I'm working on it. 

Delayed due to work on projects with more immediate payback.

Keep your eye on this space as I will be announcing things in the
comming days. In line with some of the recent topics of discussion.

No separate board is required to test the processor.

There is provision on the FPGA board for I/O separate from the memory
bus. It has its own connector. Or it could be used as a second 
memory bus. Or?
