Z84C3010PEG

Overview

The Z84C3010PEG is a CMOS programmable timer component from the Z84C30 series, manufactured by Zilog. It operates with an 8-bit data bus and supports clock frequencies up to 10 MHz. The device is housed in a DIP-40 package designed for through-hole mounting. It functions within a supply voltage range of 0 V to 5 V and maintains operational stability across a temperature spectrum from -40 °C to +100 °C. This integrated circuit serves as a dedicated timing solution compatible with Z80-based architectures.

Feature Summary

• CMOS technology supporting 10 MHz operation
• DIP-40 through-hole packaging
• Wide operating temperature range (-40 °C to +100 °C)
• Single-channel programmable timer functionality

Applications

• Z80 microprocessor system timing
• Industrial control equipment clocks
• Embedded system interval generation

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity against Zilog specifications before integration. Confirm package integrity and pin alignment for DIP-40 sockets. Ensure environmental conditions remain within the specified -40 °C to +100 °C range during operation. Cross-reference datasheet revisions for any parameter updates prior to final design approval.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a single-channel CMOS timer is required for Z80-compatible systems. The DIP-40 form factor suits prototyping and legacy board designs. Verify that the 10 MHz maximum frequency meets system clock requirements. Consider thermal management capabilities given the extended industrial temperature rating.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Z84C30 family of programmable timers. It complements other Zilog peripherals like the Z84C4110 I/O controller. The PEG suffix typically denotes specific packaging or material variations within the standard Z84C30 product line, distinct from ceramic or surface-mount variants.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include Z84C3010AEG (surface mount) and Z84C3010VEC (PLCC). Verify pin compatibility and electrical parameters before substitution. Functional equivalence requires matching the 10 MHz speed grade and 8-bit interface.
