AM3358BZCZ80

The AM3358BZCZ80 is a Texas Instruments Sitara AM335x series microprocessor featuring a single ARM® Cortex®‑A8 32‑bit core running at 800 MHz in a 324‑ball NFBGA (15×15) package. It is designed for embedded systems that require a compact, single‑core application processor with integrated memory controllers, display interfaces and broad peripheral connectivity.

Typical deployments include embedded HMI and touchscreen systems, networking and communications equipment, and industrial control — wherever a commercial‑grade, highly integrated 800 MHz Cortex‑A8 MPU is required.

Key Features

• Core and Performance Single ARM® Cortex®‑A8 32‑bit core running at 800 MHz for single‑core application workloads.
• Memory Interfaces Integrated controllers for LPDDR, DDR2, DDR3 and DDR3L memory types to support a range of system memory configurations.
• Graphics and Display Graphics acceleration plus LCD and touchscreen display interface controllers for user‑interface and HMI applications.
• Connectivity Dual Ethernet interfaces supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps and two USB 2.0 + PHY ports for high‑speed wired networking and peripheral attachment.
• Peripheral and Fieldbus Support Additional interfaces include CAN for control and automotive‑style fieldbus integration (note: product is specified as Commercial grade).
• Security On‑chip cryptography and a hardware random number generator to support secure functions where required.
• Package and Mounting Supplier device package: 324‑NFBGA (15×15); package case: 324‑LFBGA. Surface mount package suitable for compact embedded board designs.
• Operating Range and Compliance Commercial operating temperature range of 0 °C to 90 °C and RoHS compliant.
• Multimedia Acceleration Co‑processor capabilities include multimedia and NEON™ SIMD support for accelerated signal and media processing.

Typical Applications

• Human‑Machine Interfaces (HMI) — Drive LCD and touchscreen displays with graphics acceleration for control panels, kiosks and operator terminals.
• Networking and Communications — Use dual Gigabit Ethernet and dual USB 2.0 + PHY ports for routers, gateways and networked appliances.
• Industrial Control and Instrumentation — Integrate CAN and multiple memory interface options in compact, surface‑mount embedded controllers.
• Consumer and Connected Devices — Single‑core 800 MHz processing with multimedia support for consumer electronics and connected devices that require integrated display and I/O.

Unique Advantages

• Single‑chip integration: Combines CPU, memory controllers, display and multiple I/O interfaces in a single MPU to reduce BOM and simplify PCB design.
• Flexible memory support: Native controllers for LPDDR, DDR2, DDR3 and DDR3L enable designers to choose memory types that match cost and performance targets.
• Broad wired connectivity: Dual Gigabit Ethernet and USB 2.0 + PHY ports provide versatile networking and peripheral connectivity options out of the box.
• HMI ready: Graphics acceleration plus LCD and touchscreen controllers streamline development of responsive user interfaces.
• Security primitives on‑chip: Built‑in cryptography and a random number generator help simplify secure feature implementation.
• Commercial‑grade robustness: Specified for 0 °C to 90 °C operation and RoHS compliance for standard commercial embedded deployments.
