GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Z86C96 microcontroller introduces a new level of
sophistication to single-chip architecture. The Z86C96 is a
member of the Z8 single-chip microcontroller family with
256 bytes of general-purpose RAM.
The MCU is housed in 64-pin DIP and 68-pin Leaded Chip-
Carrier packages and is manufactured in CMOS technol-
ogy.
Zilog’s CMOS microcontroller offers fast execution, effi-
cient use of memory, sophisticated interrupts, input/output
bit manipulation capabilities, and easy hardware/software
system expansion along with low cost and low power
consumption.
The Z86C96 architecture is characterized by Zilog’s 8-bit
microcontroller core. The device offers a flexible I/O
scheme, an efficient register and address space structure,
multiplexed capabilities between address/data, I/O, and a
number of ancillary features that are useful in many indus-
trial and advanced consumer applications.
The device applications demand powerful I/O capabilities.
The Z86C96 fulfills this with 52 pins dedicated to input and
output. These lines are grouped into six 8-bit ports and one
4-bit port. The ports are configurable under software
control to provide timing, status signals, serial or parallel
I/O with or without handshake, and an address/data bus
for interfacing external memory.
There are three basic address spaces available to support
this wide range of configuration: program memory, data
memory and 236 general-purpose registers.
To unburden the program from coping with the real-time
problems such as counting/timing and serial data commu-
nication, the Z86C96 offers two on-chip Counter/Timers
with a large number of user selectable modes, and a
Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART - see block
diagram).
Notes:
All Signals with a preceding front slash, "/", are active Low, e.g.:
B//W (WORD is active Low); /B/W (BYTE is active Low, only).
