NOTE
The ZCE package is not supported for this family of devices.
8.1 Device Nomenclature
To designate the stages in the product development cycle, TI assigns prefixes to the part numbers of all
microprocessors (MPUs) and support tools. Each device has one of three prefixes: X, P, or null (no prefix)
(for example, XAMIC110BZCZA). Texas Instruments recommends two of three possible prefix designators
for its support tools: TMDX and TMDS. These prefixes represent evolutionary stages of product
development from engineering prototypes (TMDX) through fully qualified production devices and tools
(TMDS).
Device development evolutionary flow:
X
Experimental device that is not necessarily representative of the final device's electrical
specifications and may not use production assembly flow.
P
Prototype device that is not necessarily the final silicon die and may not necessarily meet
final electrical specifications.
null
Production version of the silicon die that is fully qualified.
Support tool development evolutionary flow:
TMDX
Development-support product that has not yet completed Texas Instruments internal
qualification testing.
TMDS
Fully-qualified development-support product.
X and P devices and TMDX development-support tools are shipped against the following disclaimer:
"Developmental product is intended for internal evaluation purposes."
Production devices and TMDS development-support tools have been characterized fully, and the quality
and reliability of the device have been demonstrated fully. TI's standard warranty applies.
Predictions show that prototype devices (X or P) have a greater failure rate than the standard production
devices. Texas Instruments recommends that these devices not be used in any production system
because their expected end-use failure rate still is undefined. Only qualified production devices are to be
used.
TI device nomenclature also includes a suffix with the device family name. This suffix indicates the
package type (for example, ZCZ), the temperature range (for example, A is extended junction
temperature), and the device speed range, in megahertz (for example, 30 is 300 MHz). Figure 8-1
provides a legend for reading the complete device name for any device.
For additional description of the device nomenclature markings on the die, see the AM335x and AMIC110
