Z84C3010PEC Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The Z84C3010PEC is a Counter/Timer Circuit (CTC) IC operating at 10MHz, manufactured by Zilog in a 28-PDIP through-hole package. This component is classified as obsolete, making substitute parts necessary for ongoing production and maintenance applications. The Z84C3010PEC remains functionally available through alternative packaging configurations and compliance variants from the same manufacturer.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the Z84C3010PEC is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters: identical manufacturer (Zilog), matching type classification (Counter/Timer Circuit), identical frequency specification (10MHz), matching voltage supply range (4.5V ~ 5.5V), identical current supply (12 mA), matching operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 100°C), and identical package configuration (28-DIP through-hole). The Z84C3010PEG qualifies as a direct substitute based on complete alignment with all these electrical and mechanical parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Z84C3010PEG serves as the direct electrical and mechanical equivalent to the Z84C3010PEC. Both parts maintain identical functional specifications across frequency, voltage, current, temperature range, and package configuration. The Z84C3010PEG is designated as Last Time Buy status, indicating limited future availability. The Z84C3010PEG achieves ROHS3 compliance, whereas the Z84C3010PEC is RoHS non-compliant. Selection between these parts depends on regulatory requirements and supply chain planning. For applications requiring RoHS compliance, the Z84C3010PEG is the appropriate selection. For legacy systems without compliance mandates, either part functions identically within the specified electrical and thermal parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are Z84C3010PEC and Z84C3010PEG electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both parts operate at 10MHz, accept 4.5V to 5.5V supply voltage, draw 12 mA current, and function across -40°C to 100°C. Electrical performance is identical.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The primary differences are product status (Obsolete vs. Last Time Buy), RoHS compliance (non-compliant vs. ROHS3 compliant), and packaging format (bulk vs. tube). Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Can I use Z84C3010PEG as a replacement in existing designs using Z84C3010PEC?

A: Yes. The Z84C3010PEG is mechanically and electrically equivalent. It uses the same 28-DIP through-hole package and operates within identical electrical parameters. No circuit redesign is required.

Q: Why should I consider the Z84C3010PEG over the Z84C3010PEC?

A: The Z84C3010PEG offers ROHS3 compliance and is available in tube packaging, which may align with manufacturing and regulatory requirements. The Z84C3010PEC is obsolete, making future procurement difficult.

Q: Are there any thermal or frequency differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts operate at 10MHz and function across the identical -40°C to 100°C temperature range. Thermal and frequency performance is equivalent.
