PRODUCTION DATA.
The AM3358-EP device contains many peripheral interfaces. In order to reduce package size and lower overall system cost while maintaining maximum functionality, many of the AM3358-EP terminals can multiplex up to eight signal functions. Although there are many combinations of pin multiplexing that are possible, only a certain number of sets, called I/O Sets, are valid due to timing limitations. These valid I/O Sets were carefully chosen to provide many possible application scenarios for the user.
Texas Instruments has developed a Windows-based application called Pin Mux Utility that helps a system designer select the appropriate pin-multiplexing configuration for their AM3358-EP design. The Pin Mux Utility provides a way to select valid I/O Sets of specific peripheral interfaces to ensure the pin-multiplexing configuration selected for a design only uses valid I/O Sets supported by the AM3358-EP device.
