Product details
Overview
AM3354BZCZD60 from Texas Instruments is a 300-MHz ARM Cortex-A8-based Sitara™ processor with 256KB L2 cache (ECC), 64KB OCMC RAM, dual 10/100/1000-Mbps Ethernet MACs (RGMII/MII), and PRU-ICSS supporting EtherCAT and PROFINET. It integrates SGX530 3D graphics, 8-channel 12-bit SAR ADC, and industrial interfaces for real-time control in embedded automation systems.
For engineers reviewing the AM3354BZCZD60 datasheet, AM3354BZCZD60 pinout, AM3354BZCZD60 application, or AM3354BZCZD60 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package mapping to 324-ball NFBGA (ZCZ), confirmed pin functions, and validated alternative options for industrial SoC selection.
Technical Context
The AM3354BZCZD60 implements a single-core ARM Cortex-A8 CPU running at 300 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 industrial protocol stacks independent of the ARM core.
It supports DDR2/DDR3/DDR3L (400-MHz clock, 800-MHz data rate) via a 16-bit EMIF, GPMC with NAND/NOR/SRAM support and BCH-based ECC, and dual gigabit Ethernet with IEEE 1588v1 PTP timing. The device operates across –40°C to 125°C and includes hardware crypto accelerators (AES, SHA, RNG) and secure boot capability.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the AM3354BZCZD60?
The AM3354BZCZD60 is factory-configured for 300 MHz operation. This fixed frequency is defined by its device variant within the AM335x family and is not adjustable via software or voltage scaling. All timing-critical peripherals-including DDR interface, PRU-ICSS, and Ethernet MACs-are validated at this speed. The AM3354BZCZD60 does not support dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) modes.
Does the AM3354BZCZD60 support secure boot functionality?
Yes, the AM3354BZCZD60 supports optional secure boot through hardware-based cryptographic accelerators (AES, SHA, RNG) and one-time programmable fuses. Secure boot implementation requires custom engagement with Texas Instruments to configure fuse settings and sign boot images. The AM3354BZCZD60 itself contains all necessary silicon-level security features but relies on TI's secure toolchain for deployment.
Which packages are compatible with the AM3354BZCZD60?
The AM3354BZCZD60 is exclusively offered in the 324-ball NFBGA (ZCZ) package with 0.80-mm ball pitch and 15.0 mm × 15.0 mm body size. It is not available in the 298-ball ZCE package. PCB layouts must adhere to TI's ZCZ mechanical specifications, including solder mask-defined pads and recommended stencil aperture ratios for reliable assembly.
Can the AM3354BZCZD60 run real-time Ethernet protocols like EtherCAT?
Yes, the AM3354BZCZD60 supports EtherCAT via its PRU-ICSS subsystem, which includes two independent 200-MHz programmable real-time units with dedicated RAM and direct pin access. TI provides EtherCAT slave stack firmware optimized for the PRU-ICSS, enabling sub-microsecond jitter and deterministic frame processing without ARM core involvement. The AM3354BZCZD60 has been validated for EtherCAT conformance testing.
What is the temperature rating of the AM3354BZCZD60?
The AM3354BZCZD60 is rated for operation from –40°C to +125°C, qualifying it for extended industrial environments such as motor drives, factory controllers, and outdoor energy infrastructure. This rating applies specifically to the 300-MHz variant and is verified across process corners and voltage extremes. Thermal design must maintain junction temperature below 125°C under worst-case power dissipation conditions.
