Zilog’s Z8 Encore!® Flash Microcontroller (MCU) is the first in the new
line of Zilog microcontroller products. This board supports the Z8
Encore! and introduces Flash to the Z8
The Z8 Encore! Development Kit (Z8ENCORE000ZCO) allows you to
become familiar with the hardware and software tools available with this
product. This kit consists of the 64 KB version of the Z8 Encore!
Evaluation board that supports and presents the features of the Z8
Encore!. The software development tool kit allows you to begin writing
application software and contains all supporting documents.
This manual acquaints you with the Z8 Encore! Development Kit, and
gives instructions on setting up and using the tools to start building
designs and applications.

Z8 Encore!® Flash Microcontroller Development Kit
Installation
This chapter describes the installation of hardware and software tools for
the Z8 Encore! Evaluation Kit. Also describes setting up the evaluation
board, substituting plug configurations of the universal 9 V DC power
supply, and installing the ZDS II—IDE Z8 Encore! software.
Setting up the Evaluation Board
The PC communicates with the Z8 Encore! Flash MCU Evaluation board
using the serial port of the PC. A Z8 Encore! Smart Cable converts the
RS-232 signals into the 3.3 V bidirectional open-drain signal needed to
communicate with the on-chip debugger of the eZ8. This Z8 Encore!
Smart Cable is a small circuit board with an attached cable and a six-pin
right angle female connector that attaches to the evaluation board.
