AM3354BZCED60

Overview

The AM3354BZCED60 is a microprocessor from the Texas Instruments Sitara family, featuring an ARM Cortex-A8 core. It operates at a maximum clock frequency of 600 MHz and utilizes a 32-bit data bus width. The component is housed in a PBGA-298 package and supports surface mount installation. It functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C with a core voltage of 1.1 V. Memory specifications include 32 kB L1 instruction and data caches, 256 kB L2 cache, and 176 kB ROM. I/O voltages are supported at 1.8 V and 3.3 V.

Feature Summary

• Integrates an ARM Cortex-A8 processor core for embedded control applications
• Includes hardware security features such as cryptography support and a random number generator
• Supports multimedia processing through NEON SIMD coprocessor capabilities
• Provides multiple communication interfaces including Ethernet, USB, CAN, and UART

Applications

• Industrial automation controllers

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'ED' against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm package type and temperature grade alignment. Ensure compatibility with required memory controllers and peripheral configurations before procurement. Confirm moisture sensitivity levels and reflow soldering profiles match assembly requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a 600 MHz Cortex-A8 performance level is sufficient for the application. Consider the PBGA-298 package constraints for PCB layout. Evaluate if the integrated peripherals meet connectivity needs without external components. Compare power consumption characteristics against alternative frequencies in the same series.

Part Context

This component belongs to the AM3354 series within the broader Sitara processor portfolio. It shares architectural similarities with other AM335x variants but differs in clock speed and package options. The series targets cost-sensitive industrial and commercial markets requiring reliable processing capabilities.

Replacement Considerations

Check for AM3354BZCZA60R or AM3354BZCZD60 as potential functional substitutes within the same series. Verify pin-to-pin compatibility and software binary compatibility before substitution.
