Product details
Overview
AM3352BZCZA30 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 (MII/RMII/RGMII), PRU-ICSS for EtherCAT/PROFINET, and support for DDR3/DDR2/mDDR memory interfaces. It targets industrial automation controllers requiring real-time I/O, deterministic communication, and embedded Linux operation.
For engineers reviewing the AM3352BZCZA30 datasheet, AM3352BZCZA30 pinout, AM3352BZCZA30 application, or AM3352BZCZA30 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, package mapping to 324-pin NFBGA (ZCZ), validated PRU-ICSS industrial protocol support, and direct alternative part comparisons - all grounded in TI's SPRS717L production data sheet.
Technical Context
The AM3352BZCZA30 implements a dual-core programmable real-time unit subsystem (PRU-ICSS) with two 200-MHz RISC processors, 12KB shared RAM (parity), and dedicated MII/Ethernet ports enabling hardware-accelerated EtherCAT and PROFINET stack execution independent of the Cortex-A8 core. Its PRCM module supports SmartReflex™ Class 2B adaptive voltage scaling and five ADPLLs for precise clock generation across MPU, DDR, USB, and peripheral domains.
It integrates a PowerVR SGX530 3D graphics engine (20M polygons/sec), 24-bit LCD controller with DMA-driven raster display, and a full peripheral suite including six UARTs (with IrDA/CIR), three I²C interfaces, two McSPI ports, three MMC/SDIO controllers, and three eHRPWM modules with dual-edge symmetric/asymmetric output configuration - all accessible via multiplexed GPIO banks.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| AM3358BZCZD60 | 1-GHz Cortex-A8, same ZCZ package, identical peripheral set but higher frequency grade; supports OPP50 (500 MHz) and OPP100 (1000 MHz) operating points. | Targeted at higher-performance HMI and gateway applications requiring >1200 MIPS sustained throughput. | Select when application demands higher CPU bandwidth for concurrent video decoding, multi-protocol routing, or complex UI rendering. |
| AM3356BZCZA60 | 600-MHz Cortex-A8 in 298-pin ZCE package (0.65-mm pitch, 13×13 mm); lacks second Ethernet MAC and PRU-ICSS full feature set (limited PRU I/Os pinned out). | Suitable for cost-sensitive industrial gateways where single Ethernet port and basic real-time I/O suffice. | Choose for space-constrained designs accepting reduced industrial protocol flexibility and smaller thermal footprint. |
Compared with AM3352BZCZA30, AM3358BZCZD60 offers higher compute headroom for multitasking workloads, while AM3356BZCZA60 trades package size and industrial connectivity for lower bill-of-materials cost - both require PCB redesign due to non-pin-compatible footprints.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the AM3352BZCZA30?
The AM3352BZCZA30 is rated for 600 MHz operation per TI's SPRS717L production data sheet. This frequency corresponds to the OPP60 operating performance point and is validated across the industrial temperature range (–40°C to +105°C). It delivers 1200 MIPS performance with NEON SIMD support, sufficient for real-time Linux-based control applications without thermal throttling under typical industrial cooling conditions. The AM3352BZCZA30 does not support 800 MHz or 1 GHz operation - those speeds are reserved for AM3357/AM3358/AM3359 variants.
Does the AM3352BZCZA30 include hardware cryptographic acceleration?
Yes, the AM3352BZCZA30 integrates dedicated crypto hardware accelerators for AES-128/256, SHA-1/256, and a true random number generator (TRNG). These modules operate independently of the Cortex-A8 core and are accessible via the Crypto Acceleration Engine (CAE) driver in Processor SDK Linux. They enable secure boot, encrypted firmware updates, and TLS 1.2 handshake acceleration - critical for industrial IoT devices requiring IEC 62443-3-3 compliance. No external security IC is needed for baseline cryptographic operations.
What package type and pin count does the AM3352BZCZA30 use?
The AM3352BZCZA30 uses a 324-ball NFBGA package with ZCZ suffix, 0.80-mm ball pitch, and 15.0 mm × 15.0 mm body size. This matches the pinout and thermal profile of other ZCZ-suffixed AM335x devices like AM3358BZCZD60. It is not pin-compatible with the 298-ball ZCE package (e.g., AM3352BZCZD30), which has different ball layout, smaller footprint (13×13 mm), and reduced I/O count - PCB layout must be redesigned when switching between ZCZ and ZCE variants.
Can the AM3352BZCZA30 support dual Ethernet ports with IEEE 1588 precision time protocol?
Yes, the AM3352BZCZA30 integrates two independent Gigabit Ethernet MACs (EMACs) with full IEEE 1588v1 Precision Time Protocol support, including hardware timestamping on both transmit and receive paths. Each MAC supports MII, RMII, and RGMII interfaces and operates concurrently with the PRU-ICSS subsystem. This enables synchronized distributed control in industrial networks - for example, coordinating multiple servo drives over EtherCAT while maintaining sub-microsecond clock alignment across nodes without external PTP grandmaster hardware.
What industrial communication protocols are supported by the PRU-ICSS in the AM3352BZCZA30?
The PRU-ICSS in the AM3352BZCZA30 supports EtherCAT, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, PROFIBUS, Ethernet Powerlink, and Sercos - all implemented in firmware running on the dual 200-MHz PRU cores. TI provides reference implementations and protocol stacks via the PRU-ICSS Software Development Kit. Unlike software-only protocol stacks, these run independently of the Cortex-A8 and Linux OS, ensuring deterministic response times below 1 µs for I/O scanning and motion control cycles - essential for hard real-time industrial applications.
