• Exhibit
  Atmel will be showcasing the following technologies:
  • AT91SAM ARM-based Microcontrollers
    Atmel's SAM Microcontrollers based on the industry-­leading ARM® 32-bit RISC architecture provide the ideal mix of performance, connectivity, security, and power economy for today's deeply embedded, connected systems. Built around ARM7 and ARM9 processor cores, these MCUs feature a highly parallel internal AMBA bus-architecture with distributed DMA and memory to achieve maximum data bandwidth. The AT91SAM9 series raises performance to 250 MIPS allowing software implementation of innovative protocols for communication, compression or control. All AT91SAM MCUs feature USB connectivity and are designed for maximum software reuse. Application development is simplified by plug-and-go, low-cost evaluation kits and a worldwide support network. The ARM Connected Community makes available a range of development tools, compilers, and operating systems that matches all application requirements.
  • AT91CAP Customizable Microcontrollers
    Atmel's CAP™ is an ARM7 and ARM9 microcontroller-based system-on-chip platform with fast local memory, a wide range of industry-standard peripherals and interfaces, and a Metal Programmable (MP) Block that allows the designer to add custom logic. By combining the performance, density and low power consumption of the fixed portion of the device with the flexibility of the MP Block, CAP enables application-specific products to be developed in a fraction of the time and at a fraction of the cost of standard-cell ASICs, but at a unit price close to that of standard cell devices. CAP also offers superior performance, smaller form factor and lower power consumption at a unit price significantly lower than an MCU-plus-FPGA combination for the same functionality. CAP is fully supported with an emulation board, software development tools, operating systems and code modules to facilitate application software development.

AT91SAM ARM-based Micros Technical Classes

These classes are for those who want to hear directly from the technical support team the "To do and not to do's" when developing a system based on one of Atmel's AT91SAM ARM-based Flash Microcontrollers or Embedded MPUs.

Programming Guidelines for AT91SAM ARM-based Micros
October 7 / 9:30am – 11:30am / Room 212
Presenter: Lionel Perdigon, Technical Support & Training Group Engineer

An introduction to the AT91SAM programmer's model and a technical overview of the AT91SAM ARM-based Flash MCU and Embedded MPUs. This class provides guidelines for the software developer to optimize the use of the hardware for performance and low power.

Versatile Boot Strategies for AT91SAM9 Embedded MPUs
October 7 / 2:00pm – 3:45pm / Room 212
Presenter: Lionel Perdigon, Technical Support & Training Group Engineer

Atmel's AT91SAM9 ARM926-based Embedded MPUs provide a range of interfaces and memory options to upload a first level boot loader which controls the system startup process. This class discusses the different boot strategies on Atmel's ARM9 MPUs with the objective to accelerate the initial development phase.
