Atmel SMART SAM4N Entry Point to the Atmel ARM Cortex-M4-Based Flash MCU Portfolio The Atmel SMART SAM4N series comprises the entry point to our portfolio of ARM Cortex -M4-based Flash microcontrollers (MCUs). These MCUs feature a 100MHz operating frequency and offer up to 1MB of Flash, multiple serial communication peripherals, and analog capability. This combination of features plus low power consumptionmakes the SAM4N series ideal for a wide range of applications in industrial automation, consumer and appliance, and energy metering markets. The SAM4N series offers pin-to-pin compatibility with Atmel SMART SAM4S, SAM3S, SAM3N and SAM7S devices, facilitating easy migration within the portfolio. Key Features 2 High level of integration SAM4N devices offer fast serial communication with seven UARTs, four SPIs and three I Cs. Additional features include 12-bit ADC, 10-bit DAC, integrated voltage reference, multiple timers, PWM and more. Low power consumption With its low-power architecture, the SAM4N MCU achieves power consumption levels down to 170A/MHz in Active mode as low as 20A in sleep mode with full RAM retention and wake-up time down to 10s requiring as little as 1A in backup mode with the RTC running. Ease of use The ecosystem of software tools and support for the Atmel Studio integrated development environment (IDE) enables an efficient design process and reduces time to market. Key Applications Industrial Automation and M2M (machine-to-machine) Building and Home Control Process transmitters Sensors and actuators RF modules Control panels Asset tracking Room control units Keypads Consumer and Appliance Low-cost gateways(WAN/HAN) (wireless- and Toys and mobile accessories home-area-network) Energy Metering Smart meters Low-end data concentratorsAtmel SMART SAM4N Entry Point to the Atmel ARM Cortex-M4-Based Flash MCU Portfolio Design Tools and Ecosystem Atmel offers a full suite of hardware tools for evaluation and prototyping with the SAM4N series. All SAM4N evaluation tools are supported by the Atmel Studio Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and integrated Atmel QTouch library support for buttons, sliders and wheels. They are backed by a worldwide support ecosystem of industry-leading suppliers of development tools, real-time operating systems, and middleware products to make your design process easier and reduce time-to-market. SAM4N Xplained Pro The Atmel Xplained Pro platform consists of a main board with multiple expansion ports plus extension boards, including OLED LCD displays, buttons, sensors and more. The board is available as a standalone kit. The extension boards can also be purchased separately.
