The eZ80AcclaimPlus! Development Kit provides a general-purpose single-board platform for creating designs based on Zilog’s eZ80F91 Flash microcontroller. When compared to Zilog’s previous eZ80F91 development tools, the eZ80AcclaimPlus! Platform stands out with its 8MB of external Flash memory, 1MB of external SRAM, an updated PHY and a USB-to-UART0 port connection, all at a lower cost to you.
The kit features two primary boards; the eZ80 Development Platform and the eZ80F91 Module. In addition, all of the necessary hardware, software, and technical documentation are included in the kit for design to begin immediately.
