Overview of AM29000-16GC – IC MPU 16MHZ 169PGA
The AM29000-16GC is a single-core, 32-bit microprocessor IC based on the AM29000 core, operating at 16 MHz. Designed for embedded applications, this commercial-grade device provides a predictable processing platform with 5 V I/O and a through-hole 169-PGA package format.
Its specification set — including a 16 MHz clock, 5 V I/O, commercial temperature range, and RoHS compliance — makes it suitable for embedded designs that require a stable 32-bit processing element in a 169-pin PGA footprint.
Key Features
- Core and Architecture Single AM29000 core providing a 32-bit processor architecture for integer processing tasks.
- Clock Speed 16 MHz operating frequency for predictable timing and control-oriented workloads.
- Voltage I/O 5 V I/O level to match legacy and common embedded system voltage domains.
- Package and Mounting 169-PGA supplier device package (44.7x44.7) with a 169-BPGA package case and through-hole mounting for board-level robustness and serviceability.
- Operating Grade and Temperature Commercial grade with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C suitable for many indoor and controlled-environment embedded applications.
- Environmental Compliance RoHS compliant to meet common environmental and manufacturing requirements.
- Graphics No graphics acceleration—optimized for general-purpose embedded processing rather than graphics-intensive tasks.
Typical Applications
- Embedded Control Used as the primary processing element in embedded systems that require 32-bit integer processing and stable 5 V I/O interfacing.
- Industrial and Commercial Equipment Fits commercial-temperature-range equipment where a through-hole 169-PGA package and predictable operating window are required.
- Board-Level Upgrades and Replacements Suitable for designs that require a 169-pin PGA through-hole microprocessor footprint for retrofit or replacement scenarios.
Unique Advantages
- 32-Bit Processing: Delivers 32-bit core capability for arithmetic and control tasks, supporting wider data paths than 8- or 16-bit alternatives.
- Stable, Known Clock Rate: 16 MHz operation provides a predictable timing baseline for control and real-time scheduling.
- Through-Hole 169-PGA Packaging: Through-hole 169-PGA (44.7x44.7) package simplifies prototyping, socketed replacement, and mechanical retention on boards.
- 5 V I/O Compatibility: Matches legacy and common embedded I/O voltage domains to ease integration with existing subsystems.
- Commercial Temperature Range: Rated 0 °C to 85 °C for a wide range of indoor and controlled-environment deployments.
- RoHS Compliant: Supports environmental and manufacturing requirements for lead-free production processes.
