Z84C1516ASG

Overview

The Z84C1516ASG is a microprocessor unit based on the Z80 core architecture. It operates at a maximum clock speed of 16MHz with an 8-bit data bus width. The device is housed in a 100-LQFP package measuring 14x14 mm. It supports a 5.0V I/O voltage and functions within an operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. This component is classified as an embedded microprocessor.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a single-core Z80 processor architecture for instruction execution.
• Supports surface mount installation via a 100-lead LQFP form factor.

Applications

• Embedded systems requiring Z80 compatibility
• Industrial control interfaces
• Legacy system maintenance

Procurement Notes

Verify part authenticity through authorized channels due to obsolete status. Confirm RoHS3 compliance and moisture sensitivity level requirements during handling. Check for product change notifications regarding assembly origin or material updates before integration into new designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16MHz Z80-compatible processor is required in a surface-mount package. Ensure design constraints accommodate the 100-LQFP footprint and 5.0V logic levels. Consider thermal management for the specified commercial temperature range.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Z84C15 series of microprocessors manufactured by Zilog. It serves as a direct hardware replacement for earlier Z80 variants while offering modern packaging options. The series maintains binary compatibility with standard Z80 software environments.
