Product details
Overview
OMAP3530DCUSA from Texas Instruments is a high-performance applications processor integrating an ARM Cortex-A8 core (up to 720 MHz), TMS320C64x+ DSP core (up to 520 MHz), PowerVR SGX graphics accelerator, and IVA2.2 video/audio subsystem - enabling full HD video decode, 3D graphics, and real-time image processing in portable media players and navigation devices.
For engineers reviewing the OMAP3530DCUSA datasheet, OMAP3530DCUSA pinout, OMAP3530DCUSA application, or OMAP3530DCUSA equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package-specific pin mapping, functional subsystem boundaries, and validated alternative options for embedded Linux, Android, and Windows CE system-on-module designs.
Technical Context
The OMAP3530DCUSA implements a heterogeneous dual-core architecture: the ARM Cortex-A8 handles OS execution and application logic with NEON SIMD acceleration, while the C64x+ DSP offloads intensive signal processing tasks including camera ISP pipelines, audio codecs, and video post-processing. Both cores share 256KB L2 cache and access unified memory via L3/L4 interconnects.
Its integrated peripherals include a 24-bit RGB display subsystem supporting dual LCD panels, BT.656/BT.601 camera interface, three MMC/SDIO controllers, five McBSP serial ports (two with sidetone), USB OTG + multiport host, and SmartReflex-enabled dynamic voltage/frequency scaling - all operating within a 0.985–1.35 V adaptive core voltage range.

Pinout & Package
OMAP3530DCUSA uses a 423-ball s-PBGA package (CUS suffix) with 0.65-mm ball pitch on top side only; no top-side balls present. Pin assignments follow TI's CUS-specific ball map (Table 2-3, SPRS507H), differing from CBB/CBC packages in GPIO count, GPMC chip-select availability, and peripheral signal muxing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| sdrc_d0–sdrc_d31 | SDRAM Data Bus | 32-bit bidirectional data path for LPDDR SDRAM; requires matched trace lengths and termination per JEDEC spec |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar applications processor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| OMAP3525DCUSA | No PowerVR SGX graphics accelerator; identical ARM/DSP cores, memory subsystem, and peripheral set | Suitable for non-3D UI applications (e.g., basic navigation, media playback without OpenGL rendering) | Select when graphics acceleration is unnecessary - lower cost and reduced thermal design complexity |
| AM3517BZCNA | ARM Cortex-A8 only (no C64x+ DSP); adds Ethernet MAC, SATA, and enhanced security accelerators; same CUS package | Better suited for industrial networking gateways than multimedia-rich handhelds due to missing DSP and SGX | Choose for wired connectivity and deterministic real-time control where DSP offload is not required |
Compared with OMAP3530DCUSA, OMAP3525DCUSA removes graphics acceleration but retains identical video/audio processing capability, while AM3517BZCNA trades DSP and SGX for Ethernet and security features - making each optimal for distinct system-level priorities: multimedia richness, cost-sensitive UI-only, or networked industrial control.

FAQ
What distinguishes OMAP3530DCUSA from OMAP3525DCUSA?
The OMAP3530DCUSA integrates a PowerVR SGX graphics accelerator enabling OpenGL ES 1.1/2.0 and OpenVG 1.0 acceleration, while the OMAP3525DCUSA omits this block. All other subsystems - ARM Cortex-A8, C64x+ DSP, IVA2.2 video engine, display, camera, and peripheral interfaces - are functionally identical between the two CUS-package variants.
Does OMAP3530DCUSA support LPDDR memory?
Yes, OMAP3530DCUSA supports Low-Power Double Data Rate (LPDDR) SDRAM via its SDRAM Controller (SDRC). The device implements full JEDEC-compliant timing and command sequences for LPDDR operation, with dedicated DQS strobes and configurable drive strength to meet signal integrity requirements.
What camera interfaces does OMAP3530DCUSA provide?
OMAP3530DCUSA provides a parallel BT.601 (8-bit) and BT.656 (10-bit) YCbCr 4:2:2 interface, plus CCD/CMOS imager support with pixel clock, horizontal/vertical sync, and field signals. It includes a full Camera Image Signal Processor (ISP) with auto-focus, white balance, and noise reduction engines.
Is OMAP3530DCUSA pin-compatible with CBB or CBC package variants?
No, OMAP3530DCUSA (CUS package) is not pin-compatible with CBB or CBC variants. Table 1-1 in SPRS507H explicitly lists differences in GPIO count, GPMC signal availability (e.g., gpmc_ncs1/ncs2 absent), McBSP/UART multiplexing, and POP interface support - requiring unique PCB layout for CUS.
Which operating systems are officially supported on OMAP3530DCUSA?
OMAP3530DCUSA is officially supported for Linux®, Windows® CE, and Android™. TI provided board support packages (BSPs), kernel drivers, and graphics libraries (PVR SDK) for all three, with Android support added in the October 2013 revision of SPRS507H.
