AM3358 1GHz Arm®-Based Cortex-8 Microprocessors

Texas Instruments AM3358 1GHz Arm®-Based Cortex-8 Microprocessors are based on an Arm Cortex-8 32-Bit RISC processor. This processor has a frequency of 600/800/1000MHz, a MIPS of 1200/1600/2000, and a 3D graphics accelerator (PowerVR SGX™) designed to support display and gaming effects. The AM3358 processor features two controller-area networks (CANs), dual-core programmable real-time units (PRUs), and comes in a compact 15.0mm x 15.0mm, 324-pin package. These devices are enhanced with image, graphics processing, peripherals, and industrial interface options such as EtherCAT and PROFIBUS. The devices support high-level operating systems (HLOS). Processor SDK Linux® and TI-RTOS are available free of charge from TI. The Texas Instruments AM3358 1GHz Arm-Based Cortex-8 Microprocessors are featured in the Beaglebone Black and Beaglebone Green single-board computers.
