Zilog Interface - Interface - Specialized - Z8523008VEC Z8523008VEC

The Z8523008VEC is a specialized serial communication controller from the ZiLOG family, designed for applications requiring efficient data transmission. It features a dual full-duplex channel configuration, allowing for simultaneous data transfer in both directions. The device supports processing speeds of up to 5 Mbps and accommodates various communication protocols, including asynchronous, monosynchronous, and bisynchronous formats, as well as SDLC/HDLC. This controller includes integrated features such as a crystal oscillator, baud rate generator, and digital phase-locked loop on each channel, which help minimize the need for external components. It also provides error detection capabilities through CRC-16 or CRC-CCITT. The Z8523008VEC is packaged in a 44-pin PLCC format and operates within a supply voltage range of 4.5 V to 5.5 V. However, it is important to note that this product is classified as obsolete (EOL), and its availability may be limited in the market.
