MCU
The Z8 Encore! XP F08xA Series MCU is member of a family of ZiLOG
microcontroller products based upon the 8-bit eZ8 core CPU. The Flash
in-circuit programming capability allows for faster development time and
program changes in the field. The eZ8 core CPU is upward compatible
with existing Z8®instructions. The rich peripheral set of the Z8 Encore!
XP F08xA Series makes it suitable for a variety of applications including
motor control, security systems, home appliances, personal electronic
devices, and sensors.
The Development board contains circuitry to support and present all the
features of the Z8 Encore! XP F08xA Series. The main features of the Z8
Encore! XP F08xA Series are:
