Z84C4310FEC

Specialized Overview

The Z84C4310FEC is a serial input/output controller manufactured by Zilog, Inc. It operates on CMOS technology and supports a maximum clock frequency of 10 MHz with an external data bus width of 8 bits. The device provides two serial channels capable of asynchronous and synchronous communication protocols including HDLC and SDLC. It is housed in a 44-pin Plastic Quad Flat Package (PQFP) and functions within a temperature range of -40 °C to 100 °C.

Specialized Feature Summary

• Dual-channel serial I/O capability for simultaneous data transmission and reception
• Support for multiple synchronous and asynchronous communication protocols
• CMOS construction ensuring low power consumption and high noise immunity

Specialized Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust serial communication interfaces
• Embedded controllers needing dedicated hardware for protocol handling
• Data acquisition systems utilizing synchronous byte or bit modes

Specialized Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'FEC' against official Zilog documentation to confirm package type and temperature grade. Ensure compatibility with existing system voltage levels and interface requirements before procurement. Check for availability as this component may be subject to lifecycle changes.

Specialized Selection Notes

Select the Z84C4310FEC when dual-channel serial processing is required alongside Z80 bus compatibility. Compare pinout and electrical characteristics with similar models like the Z84C4310VEC if lead-free or different packaging options are needed. Validate protocol support needs against the device's built-in capabilities.
