AcclaimPlus! Embedded Drop-In Ethernet - ZiLOG

The AcclaimPlus! ASSP features a 50 MHz CPU core, 24-bit addressing and 10/100 Ethernet MAC. It comes with a next-generation embedded internet software suite, including an updated TCP/IP stack, RTOS and support for USB 2.0 and PPoE and up to 256 KB of flash memory and 16 KB of SRAM. The upgraded RTOS features up to 32 priority levels and a reprioritization-at-run-time capability and inter-thread communications and synchronization options. ZiLOG's new offering also features RZK and ZTP enhancements that deliver a double digit code density improvement over the previous versions, leading to faster program execution and smaller memory space requirements.

Darin Billerbeck, ZiLOG:

When we first introduced our Acclaim! family of connectivity ASSPs, we were ahead of the market…

…Now, at a time when connectivity is becoming increasingly ubiquitous in a wide variety of electronic devices and applications, our new second generation series, the AcclaimPlus!, offers the embedded design engineering community one of the most complete SoC connectivity solutions on the market today. Timing and need appear to be right and the feedback from customers has been very positive.

The AcclaimPlus! ASSP provides a complete, time-to-market connectivity solution stack, including the application-specific silicon, software stack, real time operation system (RTOS) and TCP/IP stack. In addition, AccliamPlus! development tools enable engineers to quickly design and bring to market network control solutions for local area, wide area or personal area networks.

Since AcclaimPlus! is backward compatible with eZ80Acclaim!, developers can use the existing development kits, which contain everything needed to quickly and easily develop, debug and compile designs, including a full development platform, module (depending on your requirement), USB and Ethernet smart cables, universal power supplies, CD-ROM documentation, ZDSII version 4.11 IDE, an ANSI C-compiler and sample software projects.
