The Z8 Encore! offers a wide range of features for use in embedded applications, most notably the use of three
DMA channels to read for example from the
analog-to-digital converter (ADC).
The Z8 Encore! instruction set is compatible with that of the Z8 but it provides some extensions for use with high-level languages.
The Z8 Encore! features a single-pin debugging interface.
