No, a CPLD wouldn't do it. The Complex Instruction architecture of the
8085 causes the gate count to be way to high for a CPLD. Even before
adding any extended instructions / addressing modes.

I think there might be some better low power options now, than years

not seem likely given the need for DLLs and timing circuits.
Ken might know?

So, what did you do to create the new instructions?
And I'm interested to hear about the relative power consumption.
