Z84C3006PEC

Overview

The Z84C3006PEC is a CMOS Counter/Timer Circuit (CTC) manufactured by Zilog, belonging to the Z84C30 series. It operates with a maximum clock frequency of 6 MHz and supports an 8-bit data bus width. The device is housed in a 40-pin DIP package designed for through-hole mounting. It functions within a supply voltage range of 0 V to 5 V and is rated for an industrial operating temperature range from -40°C to +100°C. This component serves as a dedicated timer and support product for embedded systems requiring precise timing control.

Feature Summary

• CMOS technology with 6 MHz maximum clock frequency
• 40-pin DIP through-hole package
• Industrial temperature range: -40°C to +100°C
• 8-bit data bus interface

Applications

• Embedded system timing control
• Clock generation circuits
• Counter applications in industrial controllers

Procurement Notes

The Z84C3006PEC is officially listed as discontinued by the manufacturer. Availability is restricted, and it may not be sold in all regions by major distributors. Verification of current stock status and end-of-life notifications is required before procurement planning.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 6 MHz CTC is needed in a 40-pin DIP format. Ensure the design supports through-hole assembly and 5V logic levels. Verify that the -40°C to +100°C temperature range meets the environmental requirements of the target application.

Part Context

This part is part of the Z84C30 family of counter/timer circuits. It shares functional similarities with other variants like the Z84C3006AEG and Z84C3006PEG but differs in package type and mounting style. It complements other Zilog support products such as serial I/O controllers and DMA controllers.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements are limited due to the discontinued status. Consider evaluating other Z84C30 series variants with different packages or modern generic CTC ICs if lead times are critical.
