Overview

Description

BCM5357C0KFBG is Broadcom’s BCM5357 family system-on-a-chip (SoC) used in home networking gear (routers, access points, gateways). It’s a single-chip solution that typically includes a CPU core (MIPS-class), an 802.11n wireless MAC/PHY, Ethernet MACs, and various I/O interfaces (USB/PCIe and memory support) to implement a complete router/gateway in one device. The “C0” denotes a revision level, while “KFBG” is the specific packaging/variant code for a given board or thermal grade. Typical deployments run at a few hundred MHz and rely on Broadcom firmware/SDKs for networking features (routing, NAT, QoS). Public, detailed specifications are limited, as Broadcom often restricts full datasheets; exact capabilities can vary by module/board due to licensing and integration.

Features

BCM5357C0KFBG is Broadcom’s BCM5357 wireless SoC used in consumer routers. Typical features include:
- 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.11n wireless with integrated MAC/BB (theoretical up to ~300 Mbps for 2x2)
- 32/64-bit CPU core (MIPS-type) running at hundreds of MHz
- External memory interfaces for SDRAM/Flash
- Ethernet: 10/100 Mbps Ethernet networking (MAC/PHY, often used in a switch channel)
- USB 2.0 host/OTG interface
- PCIe (and/or PCI) interface for peripherals
- Hardware cryptographic acceleration (AES/DES/3DES, SHA)
- Peripherals: GPIOs, I2C, SPI, UART
- Power management and clock control for embedded use
Note: exact counts (ports, speeds) and capabilities can vary by revision; consult the official datasheet for BCM5357C0KFBG for precise specs.

Package

FBGA (Fine-pinned Ball Grid Array) package.

Pinout

Pin count: Not publicly documented for this exact package revision; the BCM5357C0KFBG is a fine-pitch FBGA with hundreds of pins (exact count varies by revision).
Function: Broadcom BCM5357 SoC for wireless routers; a system-on-chip with CPU, Ethernet MAC/PHY, and 802.11n Wi‑Fi radio support, plus integrated interfaces (e.g., USB/Ethernet) for router/ap applications.

Manufacturer

Manufacturer: Broadcom Inc.
Kind of company: Broadcom is a global (American multinational) semiconductor company that designs and manufactures a wide range of chips and related software for communications, networking, wireless, and data-center applications.

Application

Typical applications: consumer broadband networking devices such as residential gateways (DSL/Cable/Fiber), wireless routers and access points, ISP modem/router combos, and small‑office networking gear. It can also serve as an embedded Ethernet switch/multimedia hub inside home networks.
