KIO refers to a Zilog specific Serial/Parallel Counter/Timer (Z84C90).

* The RCBus Z180 & Z280 require a separate RAM/ROM memory module. There are two types
of these modules, you must pick the correct ROM for your type of memory module:
* The second type of RAM/ROM module has no bank switching logic – this is called
(“Native”) because the CPU itself provides the bank switching logic.
Only Z180 and Z280 CPUs have the ability to do bank switching in the
CPU, so the ext/nat selection only applies to them. Z80 CPUs have no
built-in bank switching logic, so they are always configured for
external bank switching.

RCBus refers to Spencer Owen's RC2014 bus specification and derivatives
including RC26, RC40, RC80, and BP80.
The RCBus Z180 & Z280 require a separate RAM/ROM memory module. There
are two types of these modules and you must pick the correct ROM for
your type of memory module. The first option is the same as the 512K
RAM/ROM module for RC/BP80 Bus. This is called external ("ext") because
the bank switching is performed externally from the CPU. The second
type of RAM/ROM module has no bank switching logic -- this is called
native ("nat") because the CPU itself provides the bank switching logic.
Only Z180 and Z280 CPUs have the ability to do bank switching in the
CPU, so the ext/nat selection only applies to them. Z80 CPUs have no
built-in bank switching logic, so they are always configured for
