AM3354BZCZD30

Overview

The AM3354BZCZD30 is a microprocessor from the Texas Instruments Sitara family, featuring an ARM Cortex-A8 core. It operates at a maximum clock frequency of 300 MHz with a 32-bit data bus width. The device utilizes a PBGA-324 package and requires a 1.1 V operating supply voltage. Internal memory includes 32 kB L1 instruction cache, 32 kB L1 data cache, 256 kB L2 cache, 64 kB dedicated RAM, and 176 kB boot ROM. I/O voltages support 1.8 V and 3.3 V levels.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a single-core ARM Cortex-A8 processor for efficient computation.
• Includes NEON SIMD coprocessor for multimedia acceleration.
• Features programmable real-time units (PRU) for industrial communication protocols.
• Supports multiple external memory interfaces including DDR3 and LPDDR.

Applications

• Industrial automation controllers
• Medical devices requiring real-time processing
• Smart energy metering systems
• Human-machine interface displays

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix D30 against official datasheets to confirm the 300 MHz speed grade and commercial/industrial temperature range. Ensure compatibility with the required 324-pin PBGA footprint during PCB layout. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current manufacturer documentation before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a balance of processing power and low cost is required for embedded applications. The 300 MHz speed suits tasks not demanding high-frequency performance. Verify that the 324-pin package fits the design constraints. Consider thermal management capabilities within the specified operating temperature range for the target environment.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AM335x Sitara series, designed for cost-sensitive embedded markets. It shares architectural similarities with higher-speed variants like the AM3354BZCZA80R but offers reduced clock speeds. The series targets applications needing reliable real-time control alongside standard computing tasks.

Replacement Considerations

AM3354BZCZD80 provides similar functionality with an 800 MHz clock speed in the same package. AM3352BZCZD30 offers identical electrical characteristics but may differ in internal memory configuration or feature set availability.
