Product details
Overview
OMAP3530DCBBA from Texas Instruments is a high-performance applications processor integrating an up to 720-MHz ARM Cortex-A8 CPU core, a 520-MHz TMS320C64x+ DSP core, and a PowerVR SGX graphics accelerator - enabling concurrent video decode, 3D rendering, and real-time image processing in portable media players and navigation devices.
For engineers reviewing the OMAP3530DCBBA datasheet, OMAP3530DCBBA pinout, OMAP3530DCBBA application, or OMAP3530DCBBA equivalent, this device supports Linux, Android, and Windows CE operating systems; delivers up to 10 MPoly/sec graphics throughput; integrates SmartReflex adaptive voltage scaling; and implements a 515-pin s-PBGA package with 0.5-mm top / 0.4-mm bottom ball pitch.
Technical Context
The OMAP3530DCBBA implements a heterogeneous dual-core architecture: the ARM Cortex-A8 handles general-purpose OS execution and application logic, while the C64x+ DSP offloads intensive signal processing tasks including video encode/decode, audio codecs, and ISP pipeline operations. Both cores share access to 256-KB L2 cache and 64-KB on-chip SRAM.
Its IVA2.2 subsystem includes dedicated hardware accelerators for H.264/MPEG-4 decode, JPEG encode/decode, and camera image signal processing (CCD/CMOS interface, BT.601/BT.656 support), while the PowerVR SGX GPU provides OpenGLES 1.1/2.0 and OpenVG 1.0 acceleration - all coordinated via L3/L4 interconnects with QoS-aware arbitration.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar applications processor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OMAP3525DCBBA | Omits PowerVR SGX graphics accelerator; identical ARM/DSP cores and memory subsystem | Suitable for non-3D UI applications (e.g., basic PNDs, data loggers) where GPU is unnecessary | Select when graphics acceleration is not required - reduces cost and power consumption without sacrificing CPU/DSP performance |
| AM3517BZCNA | Successor device with same ARM Cortex-A8 core but enhanced peripherals (USB 2.0 PHY integrated, improved security features) | Better suited for new designs requiring longer lifecycle support and industrial-grade USB host/OTG functionality | Choose for new designs needing extended availability and integrated USB PHY - requires minor board redesign due to different pinout |
Compared with OMAP3530DCBBA, OMAP3525DCBBA removes the SGX GPU to lower cost and power, while AM3517BZCNA retains CPU/DSP capability but adds integrated USB 2.0 PHY and enhanced security - making it more suitable for long-lifecycle industrial deployments.

FAQ
What operating systems does the OMAP3530DCBBA officially support?
The OMAP3530DCBBA is validated for Linux, Android, and Windows CE operating systems. TI provides Board Support Packages (BSPs), kernel drivers, and graphics stacks for all three platforms. Android support was added in the October 2013 revision of the SPRS507H datasheet, confirming compatibility with early Android versions targeting embedded devices.
Does the OMAP3530DCBBA include on-chip graphics acceleration?
Yes, the OMAP3530DCBBA integrates a PowerVR SGX graphics accelerator capable of up to 10 MPoly/sec, supporting OpenGL ES 1.1/2.0 and OpenVG 1.0 APIs. This GPU is absent in the pin-compatible OMAP3525DCBBA variant - a key differentiator confirmed in TI's SPRS507H documentation.
What memory interfaces does the OMAP3530DCBBA support?
The OMAP3530DCBBA supports LPDDR SDRAM via its integrated SDRAM Controller (SDRC), plus NAND/NOR flash, SRAM, and Pseudo-SRAM via the General-Purpose Memory Controller (GPMC). It provides eight chip-select pins and flexible asynchronous protocol control for custom logic interfacing - all documented in Section 6.4 of the SPRS507H datasheet.
How does SmartReflex technology function in the OMAP3530DCBBA?
SmartReflex in the OMAP3530DCBBA uses on-die process/voltage/temperature sensors to dynamically adjust core voltage (0.985 V to 1.35 V) based on real-time workload and thermal conditions. This adaptive voltage scaling reduces active power consumption without compromising performance - a feature explicitly enabled in both MPU and IVA2.2 domains per TI's electrical characteristics tables.
Is the OMAP3530DCBBA pin-compatible with other OMAP3 packages?
The OMAP3530DCBBA uses the CBB 515-pin s-PBGA package. It shares pinout compatibility with the CBC package variant but differs from the CUS 423-pin package - which lacks POP interface, GPMC wait pins, and certain UART/McBSP signal options. Table 1-1 in SPRS507H details these mechanical and functional differences.
