Z87L1016FSGR2961

Overview

The Z87L1016FSGR2961 is a Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) phone controller integrated circuit manufactured by Zilog. It is housed in a 144-lead Quad Flat Package (QFP). The component operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and complies with RoHS standards for lead-free composition. This device is designed for wireless communication applications requiring FHSS modulation control.

Feature Summary

• Supports Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) modulation protocols
• Integrated controller functionality for cordless telephone systems
• Designed for operation in industrial temperature ranges

Applications

• Cordless telephone base station controllers
• FHSS wireless communication modules
• Evaluation kits for Z87000/Z87010 chipset families

Procurement Notes

This component is classified as obsolete or no longer manufactured by the original equipment manufacturer. Procurement should focus on verifying the authenticity of available stock from authorized distributors or secondary market suppliers. Buyers must confirm the specific lot date code and physical condition of the units, as availability is limited to existing inventory rather than new production runs.

Selection Notes

Engineers selecting this part must account for its obsolete status when designing new products. If current designs require this specific IC, it may only be sourced through surplus channels. For new developments, alternative modern FHSS controllers or updated Zilog series components should be evaluated to ensure long-term supply chain stability and support.

Part Context

The Z87L1016FSGR2961 belongs to the Z87000 family of wireless microcontrollers developed by Zilog. These chips were widely used in early generation cordless telephones and RF control applications. The specific suffix indicates package type and compliance attributes, distinguishing it from other variants in the same functional family.
