Z85C3008VSC00TR

Specialized Overview

The Z85C3008VSC00TR is a Serial Communication Controller (SCC) from the Zilog Z85C30 family, designed for networking applications. It features a single full-duplex channel with an integrated baud rate generator and digital phase-locked loop. The device supports multi-protocol formats including asynchronous, monosync, bisync, and SDLC/HDLC. It provides data encoding in NRZI, FM0, FM1, and Manchester modes, along with CRC-16 or CRC-CCITT error detection capabilities. The component utilizes a 4-byte transmit FIFO and an 8-byte receive FIFO to manage data flow efficiently.

Specialized Feature Summary

• Supports multiple serial communication protocols such as async, monosync, bisync, and SDLC/HDLC
• Integrates on-chip clock generation and encoding logic to reduce external component requirements
• Includes hardware-based cyclic redundancy check (CRC) for error detection

Specialized Applications

• Networking equipment requiring reliable serial data transmission
• Industrial control systems utilizing synchronous or asynchronous protocols
• Embedded devices implementing HDLC or bisync standards

Specialized Procurement Notes

Verify the exact part number against manufacturer documentation before ordering, as suffixes may indicate specific packaging or temperature ranges. Confirm availability status, as older SCC models may be discontinued or subject to long lead times. Ensure compatibility with existing system voltage levels and interface requirements prior to procurement.

Specialized Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel serial interface with robust protocol support is required. Compare against the Z85230 series if dual-channel functionality is necessary. Consider the Z80C30 series if multiplexed I/O operations are preferred over non-multiplexed configurations. Evaluate package constraints to ensure the PLCC form factor fits the target PCB layout.

Specialized Part Context

This component belongs to the Z85C30 family of Serial Communication Controllers, which are widely used in embedded systems for serial data handling. The Z85C30 series serves as a standard solution for replacing complex discrete logic circuits with a single integrated chip, offering improved performance and reduced power consumption compared to earlier generations.

Specialized Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other members of the Z85C30 family such as the Z85C3010VSC or Z85C3016VSC, depending on pin count and speed requirements. For dual-channel needs, consider the Z85230 series. Verify pinout compatibility and software register mapping when substituting with similar SCC devices.
