Introduction
Silicon revision is identified by a code marked on the package. The code is of the format AM3352x or
AM3358x, where "x" denotes the silicon revision.
lists the information associated with each silicon
revision for each device type. For more details on device nomenclature, see the device-specific data
manual.

Each silicon revision uses a specific revision of TI's ARM
®
Cortex™-A8 processor. The ARM Cortex-A8
processor variant and revision can be read from the Main ID Register. The DEVREV field (bits 31-28) of
the Device_ID register located at address 0x44E10600 provides a 4-bit binary value that represents the
device revision. The ROM code revision can be read from address 2BFFCh. The ROM code version
consists of two decimal numbers: major and minor. The major number is always 22, minor number counts
ROM code version. The ROM code version is coded as hexadecimal readable values; for example, ROM
version 22.02 is coded as 0000 2202h.
shows the ARM Cortex-A8 Variant and Revision, Device
Revision, and ROM Code Revision values for each silicon revision of the device.
