Atmel ships world's highest-performing ARM Cortex-M7 based MCUs with Atmel | SMART SAM S/E series targeting IoT and industrial markets

SMART SAM S70 SMART SAM E70

Offering extensive software ecosystem and third party support, advanced memory and connectivity, Atmel | SMART ARM Cortex-M7-based MCUs deliver 50% more performance than closest competitor

Atmel Corporation announced it is shipping in mass production the highest performing ARM Cortex-M based MCUs on the market, the Atmel | SMART SAM S70 and E70 series.

Atmel SMART

With 50% higher performance than the closest competitor, larger configurable SRAM, larger embedded Flash and high-bandwidth peripherals, these devices offer the ideal mix of connectivity, memory and performance. The SAM S70 and E70 series allow customers to scale-up performance and deliver SRAM and system functionality, while keeping the Cortex-M processor family ease-of-use and maximizing software reuse.

Atmel | SMART SAM S70/E70

The devices deliver over four times the performance of current Atmel | SMART ARM Cortex-M based MCUs. Running at speeds up to 300 MHz and embedding larger configurable SRAM up to 384 KB and higher bandwidth peripherals, the new devices offer designers the right connectivity, SRAM and peripheral mix for industrial and connectivity designs. The SAM S70 and E70 devices also offer advanced memory architectures with up to 384 KB of multi-port SRAM memory out of which 256 KB can be configured as tightly coupled memory delivering zero wait state access at 300 MHz. All devices come with high-speed USB host and device with on-chip high-speed USB PHY and Flash memory densities of 512 kB, 1 MB and 2 MB.

The Atmel | SMART ARM Cortex-M7-based MCUs are supported by ARM ecosystem partners on development tools and real-time operating system (RTOS) board support packages (BSPs) accelerating time-to-market. Software development tools are available on Atmel Studio, the ARM Keil MDK-ARM and IAR Embedded Workbench. Operating system support include Express Logic ThreadX, FreeRTOS, Keil RTX, NuttX and Segger embOS. A comprehensive set of peripheral driver examples and open source middleware is provided in Atmel's software package.
