• Core Count and Bus Width: 1 Core, 32-Bit
• Operating Frequency: 375MHz
• Package Type: 361-NFBGA (13x13)
• I/O Voltage Levels: 1.8V, 3.3V
• RAM Controller Support: LPDDR, DDR2
• Interface Set: I2C, McASP, McBSP, SPI, MMC/SD, UART
• Operating Temperature Range: 0°C ~ 90°C (TJ)
• Compliance Standards: ROHS3, REACH Unaffected

The substitute part AM1806EZCE3 maintains identical electrical specifications, processor architecture, clock speed, package footprint, and interface capabilities. The primary distinction is product status and packaging format.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AM1806EZCE3 is a direct functional equivalent to the AM1806BZCE3. Both parts share identical electrical characteristics, processor architecture, clock frequency, package footprint, and interface specifications. The AM1806EZCE3 maintains Active product status, ensuring continued manufacturer support and supply availability, whereas the AM1806BZCE3 is classified as Obsolete.

Both parts comply with ROHS3 standards and carry REACH Unaffected status. The MSL rating of 3 (168 Hours) applies uniformly across both variants, requiring equivalent moisture control during storage and handling.

The primary practical distinction is packaging format: AM1806BZCE3 is supplied in bulk format, while AM1806EZCE3 is supplied in tray format. This difference does not affect electrical performance or functional compatibility but may influence procurement logistics and inventory management protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
