Z8018010FEC

Overview

The Z8018010FEC is an 8-bit microprocessor unit based on the Z80 architecture, operating at a maximum clock frequency of 10 MHz. It features a single core with an 8-bit data bus width and supports a 5 V operating voltage. The device includes 64 kB of on-chip SRAM and provides two UARTs, two 16-bit counter/timers, and two DMA channels. It utilizes an 80-pin QFP package for surface mount installation and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +100°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides full backward compatibility with existing Zilog Z80 devices while incorporating extended instructions.
• Integrates system functions including DMA controllers, UARTs, timers, wait-state generators, and an interrupt controller on-chip.
• Supports expanded memory addressing up to 1 MB through an integrated Memory Management Unit (MMU).
• Includes low power-down modes and an internal oscillator/generator for simplified system design.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust I/O integration
• Embedded applications needing extended memory addressing capabilities
• Systems utilizing asynchronous serial communication interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'FEC' against official Zilog documentation to confirm package type and environmental compliance. Confirm availability status as this component may be subject to discontinuation or limited supply conditions. Ensure that the selected variant matches the required thermal and electrical specifications for the target application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when Z80 code compatibility is required alongside integrated peripheral resources. Consider the 80-pin QFP package for surface mount applications. Evaluate the need for the specific 10 MHz speed grade and the -40°C to +100°C temperature range against system requirements. Verify pinout compatibility if replacing legacy designs.

Part Context

The Z80180 series represents an enhanced microprocessor unit family from Zilog, designed to bridge the gap between standard Z80 CPUs and more complex embedded controllers. This specific model integrates significant system-level functionality directly onto the silicon die, reducing external component count and board space compared to discrete implementations.
