AM29030-33GC

Overview

The AM29030-33GC is a microprocessor IC based on the AMD Am29000 architecture. It features a single 32-bit core operating at a clock speed of 33MHz. The device is housed in a 145-pin Plastic Grid Array (PGA) package designed for through-hole mounting. It operates within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to 85°C. This component serves as a high-performance central processing unit for embedded systems requiring 32-bit data processing capabilities.

Feature Summary

• Implements the AMD Am29000 RISC architecture for efficient instruction execution
• Provides 32-bit data and address bus widths for high-throughput processing
• Utilizes a 145-pin PGA package suitable for robust board integration

Applications

• Embedded control systems
• Industrial automation controllers
• Network infrastructure equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer origin, as supply chain records may list Advanced Micro Devices or Xilinx due to historical acquisitions. Confirm the specific suffix 'GC' corresponds to the required commercial temperature range and package type. Ensure compatibility with existing socket hardware for the 145-PGA form factor before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 32-bit RISC processor with a 33MHz clock frequency is required. The choice depends on the need for a single-core solution with a 145-pin PGA interface. Consider thermal management requirements for the 0°C to 85°C operating range during system design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AMD Am29000 family of 32-bit microprocessors. The series was widely used in workstations and embedded applications during the late 1980s and 1990s. The AM29030 variant represents a specific iteration within this architectural lineage, focusing on general-purpose computing tasks.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers include AM29030-33GI and AM29030CGYUTS. Verify pinout and electrical specifications against these alternatives before implementation.
