Product details
Overview
AM3352BZCEA30R from Texas Instruments is a 600-MHz ARM Cortex-A8-based Sitara™ processor with 256KB L2 cache (ECC), 8-channel 12-bit SAR ADC, dual 10/100/1000-Mbps Ethernet MACs (1-port enabled in ZCE package), and PRU-ICSS supporting EtherCAT and PROFINET for industrial real-time control. It integrates PowerVR SGX530 graphics, USB 2.0 DRD, and GPMC for NAND/NOR/SRAM interfacing.
For engineers reviewing the AM3352BZCEA30R datasheet, AM3352BZCEA30R pinout, AM3352BZCEA30R application, or AM3352BZCEA30R equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated ZCE package pin mapping, confirmed industrial protocol support, and two rigorously cross-checked alternative parts for embedded automation and HMI designs.
Technical Context
The AM3352BZCEA30R implements a single-core ARM Cortex-A8 CPU running at 600 MHz with NEON SIMD coprocessor, 32KB L1 instruction and data caches (parity-protected), and 256KB L2 cache with ECC. Its PRU-ICSS subsystem contains two 200-MHz programmable real-time units with 8KB instruction/data RAM each and 12KB shared RAM, enabling deterministic I/O handling independent of the ARM core.
It supports DDR2/DDR3/LPDDR memory interfaces at up to 400-MHz clock (800-MHz data rate) via a 16-bit EMIF, and includes a dedicated GPMC with BCH-based 4-/8-/16-bit ECC for NAND flash reliability. The device operates across –40°C to 105°C and uses SmartReflex Class 2B adaptive voltage scaling for power optimization.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ARM-based industrial processor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AM3354BZCEA30R | Same ZCE package and 600-MHz speed, but adds SGX530 graphics accelerator and full PRU-ICSS I/O pinout. | Required when HMI graphics rendering or full industrial protocol stack support (e.g., PROFINET IRT) is needed. | Select AM3354BZCEA30R if display acceleration or expanded PRU peripheral access is required; otherwise AM3352BZCEA30R suffices for headless control. |
| AM3356BZCZA60R | ZCZ package (324-ball, 0.80-mm pitch), 600-MHz speed, dual Ethernet ports enabled, wider temperature range (–40°C to +105°C). | Suitable for new designs needing second Ethernet port or higher I/O count; not drop-in compatible due to package and pinout differences. | Choose AM3356BZCZA60R for designs requiring dual gigabit Ethernet or larger PCB layout margin; AM3352BZCEA30R remains optimal for cost- and space-constrained single-port applications. |
Compared with AM3354BZCEA30R, AM3352BZCEA30R omits SGX530 graphics and limits PRU I/O availability - reducing cost and power for headless control. Against AM3356BZCZA60R, it trades dual Ethernet and larger package for smaller footprint and lower BOM cost in single-port industrial gateways.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the AM3352BZCEA30R?
The AM3352BZCEA30R is rated for 600 MHz operation per TI SPRS717L revision L. This frequency is silicon-verified and supported across the full –40°C to +105°C temperature range with appropriate voltage and cooling. The AM3352BZCEA30R does not support 800 MHz or 1 GHz operation - those speeds require AM3357/AM3358/AM3359 variants.
Does the AM3352BZCEA30R include an integrated graphics accelerator?
No, the AM3352BZCEA30R does not include the PowerVR SGX530 graphics engine. Graphics capability is omitted in the AM3352 variant per TI's device comparison table (SPRS717L Table 3-1). For display-intensive applications, AM3354BZCEA30R or AM3356BZCZA60R - both featuring SGX530 - are functionally appropriate alternatives.
How many Ethernet ports are functional in the AM3352BZCEA30R ZCE package?
The AM3352BZCEA30R supports one 10/100/1000-Mbps Ethernet MAC (EMAC) in the ZCE package, implemented via MII/RMII/RGMII interfaces. Although the AM335x architecture includes dual EMAC logic, only EMAC0 is routed to balls in the 298-pin ZCE variant; EMAC1 is reserved for the larger ZCZ package.
What industrial protocols does the PRU-ICSS in AM3352BZCEA30R support?
The PRU-ICSS in AM3352BZCEA30R supports EtherCAT, PROFIBUS, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and other real-time industrial protocols per TI documentation. Protocol implementation relies on PRU firmware - TI provides reference code for EtherCAT slave and PROFINET IRT, and third-party stacks are commercially available for all listed protocols.
Is the AM3352BZCEA30R pin-compatible with other AM335x ZCE variants like AM3356BZCEA60R?
Yes, all AM335x ZCE-package devices - including AM3352BZCEA30R, AM3354BZCEA30R, and AM3356BZCEA60R - share identical 298-ball NFBGA mechanical and electrical pinouts. They differ only in internal feature enablement (e.g., graphics, PRU I/O count, frequency grade), allowing hardware reuse across variants with software/firmware adaptation.
