Z84C0006VEC

Overview

The Z84C0006VEC is a CMOS microprocessor belonging to the Z84C00 series, featuring an integrated Z80 core. It operates with an 8-bit data bus width and supports a maximum clock frequency of 6 MHz. The device is housed in a PLCC-44 package designed for surface mount installation. It functions within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V, with I/O levels compatible at 5 V. The component is rated for an extended industrial temperature range from -40°C to +100°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a Z80 processor core within a single CMOS chip
• Supports high-speed operation up to 6 MHz
• Designed for surface mount technology applications

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust processing
• Embedded computing modules
• General-purpose digital logic controllers

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels due to potential availability constraints. Confirm RoHS compliance status as specifications may vary by production batch. Ensure proper handling procedures are followed given moisture sensitivity classification requirements during storage and assembly processes.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a standard Z80 architecture is required with CMOS power efficiency and extended temperature tolerance. Consider the PLCC-44 footprint compatibility with existing PCB layouts. Evaluate system timing requirements against the 6 MHz operational limit before finalizing the design choice.

Part Context

This component is part of the Zilog Z84C00 family of microprocessors. These devices provide backward compatibility with the legacy NMOS Z80 instruction set while offering improved performance and lower power consumption characteristics typical of CMOS technology implementations.

Replacement Considerations

Check for Z84C0006FEG or Z84C0006PEG variants which share similar functional specifications but differ in package type or operating temperature range.
