Z8018010PSC

Overview

The Z8018010PSC 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 utilizes SRAM storage type for its integrated 64 kB data RAM. The device operates within a standard voltage range of 5 V and supports I/O voltages of 5 V. It is housed in a 64-pin DIP package designed for through-hole installation. The component includes two timer/counters and interfaces such as SCI and UART. The specified operating temperature range extends from 0°C to +70°C.

Feature Summary

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

Applications

• Embedded control systems requiring Z80 code compatibility with enhanced peripheral integration.
• Industrial automation applications utilizing on-chip serial communication and timer resources.
• Cost-reduced system designs replacing discrete logic components with a single MPU solution.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'PSC' against current manufacturer documentation to confirm package type and environmental compliance status. Confirm availability as distribution channels may list this part as obsolete or limited supply. Ensure that the 64-pin DIP form factor matches the target PCB footprint requirements before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a Z80-compatible processor with integrated peripherals is required for through-hole assembly. Consider the 10 MHz speed rating relative to system timing constraints. Evaluate the 64 kB on-chip RAM capacity against application memory needs. Verify that the 0°C to +70°C commercial temperature range meets the operational environment specifications.

Part Context

The Z80180 series represents an enhanced microprocessor unit family derived from the classic Z80 architecture. This specific model integrates significant system-level functionality directly onto the silicon die, reducing external component count. It serves as a bridge between legacy Z80 software ecosystems and modern embedded requirements by providing hardware-accelerated serial and direct memory access capabilities.
