ZiLOG Announces eZ80 Embedded Engine for the Internet Highway
The eZ80 Internet Engine is a new line of embedded microprocessor (MPU)
solutions, which was built on the company�s renowned Z80, one of the world's
best-selling 8-bit microprocessors. The eZ80 is a high-performance synthesizable
core that delivers embedded access to the Internet and a clear migration path
for existing Z80-based customers.
Building on the Z80�s legacy, ZiLOG reengineered its popular Z80 core with
embedded Internet and DSP capabilities, among other enhancements, to meet
customers� rising performance needs. The company will license its new eZ80 core,
beginning in November 1999, to unify the highly fragmented Z80 market under a
new "ZiLOG Certified" eZ80 industry standard.
According to Will Strauss, president of market research firm Forward Concepts
(Tempe, Ariz.), "The new ZiLOG has shown real innovation in designing the eZ80.
It enhances the value of the extensive installed Z80 base by providing a
step-jump increase in performance for OEMs, enabling them to expand on their
existing Z80 expertise for new product designs. What�s more, the eZ80 provides
extensive new features which makes it a natural for next-decade Internet
appliances."
