Evaluation Kit Atmel AT91SAM9XE-EK

The AT91SAM9XE-EK Evaluation Kit enables the evaluation of and coder development for applications running on an AT91SAM9XE device - ARM9-based Flash microcontrollers that combines a 200-MIPS ARM926EJ-S processor core with up to 512K bytes of high-performance on-chip Flash.

Detailed Description

Device offers an unrivalled combination of performance and functionality on a single chip, making these Flash microcontrollers ideal for space-constrained applications where high performance is required.

Multiple Networking/Connectivity Options. The SAM9XE provides multiple networking/connectivity options with on-chip USB 2.0 Full Speed Host and Device Ports, an Ethernet 10/100 Base-T MAC as well as a two-slot Multimedia Card Interface (SDCard/SDIO and MultiMediaCard Compliant), a Synchronous Serial Controller (SSC), four USARTs, two master/slave Serial Peripheral Interfaces (SPI), a debug UART and two Two Wire Interfaces (TWI).

The board supports the AT91SAM9XE in an LFBGA217 package as well as in a PQFP208 package.
AT91SAM9XE-EK Evaluation Board.

The AT91SAM9XE-EK requires 5V DC (±5%). DC power is supplied to the board via the 2.1 mm by 5.5 mm socket J1. Coaxial plug center positive standard.
