ADSP-SC572KBCZ-4

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Overview

The ADSP-SC572KBCZ-4 is a single-core SHARC+ digital signal processor integrated with an Arm Cortex-A5 core, manufactured by Analog Devices. It operates at a maximum clock frequency of 450 MHz for both cores and utilizes a 1 MB shared Level 2 SRAM with ECC protection. The device features 384 KB of L1 SRAM per SHARC+ core and 32 KB each of L1 instruction and data caches for the Arm core. Key peripherals include a Gigabit Ethernet MAC (EMAC), USB 2.0 High-Speed interface, SDIO/eMMC controller, and multiple link ports. It is housed in a 400-ball CSP_BGA package and supports automotive temperature ranges.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Feature Summary

• Dual-core architecture combining a 450 MHz SHARC+ DSP core and a 450 MHz Arm Cortex-A5 core.
• Integrated system memory includes 1 MB shared L2 SRAM with ECC and up to 384 KB L1 SRAM per SHARC+ core.
• Comprehensive peripheral set featuring Gigabit Ethernet (EMAC), USB 2.0 HS, SDIO/eMMC, and dual Link Ports.
• Supports automotive applications with AEC-Q100 qualification and integrated security features including Arm TrustZone.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Applications

• Automotive audio amplifiers and head units
• Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) and Road Noise Cancellation (RNC) systems
• Digital cockpit and infotainment processing
• Professional audio mixing consoles

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Analog Devices distributors or certified partners. Confirm RoHS compliance status via official documentation. Ensure handling procedures account for moisture sensitivity levels as specified in the datasheet. Validate that the specific KBCZ-4 suffix matches the required package and temperature grade for the target design.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Selection Notes

Select this model when a single SHARC+ core paired with an Arm Cortex-A5 is sufficient, avoiding the higher cost of dual-SHARC models like the SC573. The inclusion of Gigabit Ethernet and USB 2.0 HS distinguishes it from lower-end variants such as the SC570/SC571. Ensure the 400-ball BGA package fits the PCB layout constraints and thermal requirements of the application.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Part Context

This component belongs to the ADSP-SC57x family, which shares architectural similarities with the ADSP-2157x series but integrates an Arm Cortex-A5 core. Unlike the ADSP-21571, which lacks the Arm core, the SC572 provides RISC-based control capabilities alongside high-performance floating-point DSP processing within a single package.

Digital Signal Processor Dsp Replacement Considerations

Direct functional replacements within the same package include the ADSP-SC573KBCZ-4, which offers dual SHARC+ cores at 450 MHz. For pin-compatible alternatives without the Arm core, consider the ADSP-21571KBCZ-4. Verify peripheral availability, as some variants may lack EMAC or USB interfaces.
