OSD3358-512M-IND

Microcontrollers, Microprocessor, FPGA Modules Overview

The OSD3358-512M-IND is a System-in-Package (SiP) module manufactured by Octavo Systems LLC. It integrates an AM3358 ARM Cortex-A8 MPU, 512MB DDR3 memory, and a TPS65217B power management IC into a compact footprint. The device supports bare metal application execution via U-Boot, allowing developers to load and run code directly from external SD cards, eMMC, or TFTP servers without an operating system. This configuration provides precise control over program execution for time-sensitive applications.
