'Twas the same thing, except in one chip rather than three.  (The 8085
was essentially the 8080A, plus the 8224 and 8288.)

Before SPARC?

I do: I wrote software tools for the thing!  One key difference was
that you could take the address of a register, which made returning
more than one value from a call a hack of a lot easier.  The other
thing was that you could effectively get a new set of registers just
by pushing the stack.  So calling was super-clean.
