Introduction
The Z8 Encore!® MCU family of products are the first in a line of ZiLOG microcontroller
products based upon the new 8-bit eZ8 CPU. The Z8F640x/Z8F480x/Z8F320x/Z8F240x/
Z8F160x products are referred to collectively as either Z8 Encore!® or the Z8F640x fam-
ily. The Z8F640x family of products introduce Flash memory to ZiLOG’s extensive line
of 8-bit microcontrollers. The Flash in-circuit programming capability allows for faster
development time and program changes in the field. The new eZ8 CPU is upward compat-
ible with existing Z8 instructions. The rich peripheral set of the Z8F640x family makes it
suitable for a variety of applications including motor control, security systems, home
appliances, personal electronic devices, and sensors.
