XAM3359ZCZ

The XAM3359ZCZ is an ARM® Cortex®-A8 Sitara™ microprocessor (single core, 32‑bit) in a 324‑NFBGA (15×15) package from Texas Instruments. It is targeted at embedded applications within the Sitara AM335x family where integrated connectivity, display support and security features are required.

With support for multiple memory technologies, dual Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0 with PHY, display and touchscreen controllers, and on‑chip security primitives, this commercial‑grade device delivers a compact, interface‑rich platform for embedded designs operating from 0 °C to 90 °C.

Key Features

• Core – ARM® Cortex®‑A8 single 32‑bit core with multimedia co‑processor and NEON™ SIMD for enhanced media processing.
• Memory Controllers – Native support for LPDDR, DDR2, DDR3 and DDR3L memory interfaces for flexible memory subsystem design.
• Connectivity – Dual 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports and two USB 2.0 ports with PHY; additional CAN interface for serial communication.
• Display & Graphics – Integrated LCD and touchscreen controllers plus graphics acceleration to support interactive displays.
• Security – On‑chip cryptography and a Random Number Generator to support secure functions.
• Package & Mounting – 324‑NFBGA (15×15) package case (324‑LFBGA), surface mount for high I/O density in compact designs.
• Grade & Temperature – Commercial grade operation with an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 90 °C.
• Environmental – RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Networked Embedded Systems – Dual Gigabit Ethernet and multiple USB interfaces enable robust connectivity for embedded networking equipment and gateways.
• Human‑Machine Interfaces (HMIs) – LCD and touchscreen controllers combined with graphics acceleration support interactive display panels and control interfaces.
• Multimedia Devices – NEON SIMD and multimedia co‑processor capabilities assist in media decoding and processing tasks in embedded multimedia applications.
