The Rabbit 3000

central element of a complete and fully supported embedded

design system that includes development tools, software libraries,

core modules, sample designs, a parts store, and readily available

expert, human support.

This Development Kit has the essentials that you need to design

your own microprocessor-based system, and includes a complete

Dynamic C

Kit contains a powerful RabbitCore™ module (the RCM3010)

and Prototyping Board that will allow you to evaluate the Rabbit

3000 and to prototype circuits that interface to a Rabbit 3000

microprocessor. You will also be able to write and test software

for the RCM3000 series RabbitCore modules, including TCP/IP

applications.

The Rabbit 3000 microprocessor shares its instruction set and conceptual design with the

successful Rabbit 2000. The instruction set is based on the Z80/Z180, but has been

adapted to be C-friendly and to allow a megabyte of code space. Rabbit processors are fast

with compact code.

The Rabbit 3000 has an extensive array of on-chip peripherals including 6 serial ports, 56

parallel I/O pins, motion control interfaces, a time/date clock, glueless memory and I/O

interfacing, a slave interface, and in-circuit programming. Low-EMI features including a

clock spectrum spreader eliminate schedule-wrecking EMI problems.

Software development support is based on Z-World's Dynamic C, and includes extensive

libraries for Internet connectivity.

Refer to the Rabbit 3000 Microprocessor User's Manual for complete information on the

Rabbit 3000 microprocessor and complete specifications.
