3. Xplained Pro

Xplained Pro is an evaluation platform that provides the full Atmel microcontroller experience. The platform consists of a series of Microcontroller (MCU) boards and extension boards, which are integrated with Atmel Studio, have Atmel Software Framework (ASF) drivers and demo code, support data streaming, and more. Xplained Pro MCU boards support a wide range of Xplained Pro extension boards, which are connected through a set of standardized headers and connectors. Each extension board has an identification (ID) chip to uniquely identify which boards are connected to an Xplained Pro MCU board. This information is used to present relevant user guides, application notes, datasheets, and example code through Atmel Studio.

3.1. Embedded Debugger

The SAM HA1G16A Xplained Pro contains the Atmel Embedded Debugger (EDBG) for on-board debugging. The EDBG is a composite USB device of three interfaces; a debugger, Virtual COM Port, and a Data Gateway Interface (DGI).

Together with Atmel Studio, the EDBG debugger interface can program and debug the ATSAMHA1G16A. On SAM HA1G16A Xplained Pro, the SWD interface is connected between the EDBG and the ATSAMHA1G16A.

The Virtual COM Port is connected to a UART on the ATSAMHA1G16A and provides an easy way to communicate with the target application through terminal software. It offers variable baud rate, parity, and stop bit settings. Note that the settings on the ATSAMHA1G16A must match the settings given in the terminal software.

Info: The Virtual COM Port in the EDBG requires the terminal software to set the data terminal ready (DTR) signal to enable the UART pins connected to the ATSAMHA1G16A. If the DTR signal is not enabled the UART pins on the EDBG is kept in high-z (tristate) rendering the COM port unusable. The DTR signal is set automatically by some terminal software, but it may have to be manually enabled in your terminal.

The DGI consists of several physical interfaces for communication with the host computer.

Communication over the interfaces is bidirectional. It can be used to send events and values from the ATSAMHA1G16A or as a generic printf-style data channel. Traffic over the interfaces can be timestamped on the EDBG for more accurate tracing of events. Note that timestamping imposes an overhead that reduces maximal throughput. Atmel Data Visualizer is used to send and receive data through DGI.

The EDBG controls two LEDs on SAM HA1G16A Xplained Pro; a power LED and a status LED. The table below shows how the LEDs are controlled in different operation modes.

Table 3-1. EDBG LED Control

Operation Mode Power LED Status LED
Normal operation Power LED is lit	when power is applied to the board.	Activity indicator, LED flashes when any communication happens to the EDBG.
Bootloader mode (idle) The power	LED and the status LED blinks simultaneously.
Bootloader mode (firmware upgrade)	The power LED and the status LED blinks in an alternating pattern.

For further documentation on the EDBG, see the EDBG User Guide.

3.2. Hardware Identification System

All Xplained Pro compatible extension boards have an Atmel ATSHA204 CryptoAuthentication™ chip mounted. This chip contains information that identifies the extension with its name and some extra data. When an Xplained Pro extension is connected to an Xplained Pro MCU board the information is read and sent to Atmel Studio. The Atmel Kits extension, installed with Atmel Studio, will give relevant information, code examples, and links to relevant documents. The table below shows the data fields stored in the ID chip with example content.

Table 3-2. Xplained Pro ID Chip Content

Data Field Data Type Example Content

Minimum Voltage [mV] uint16_t 3000
Maximum Voltage [mV] uint16_t 3600
Maximum Current [mA] uint16_t 30

3.3. Power Sources

The SAM HA1G16A Xplained Pro kit can be powered by several power sources as listed in the table below.

Table 3-3. Power Sources for SAM HA1G16A Xplained Pro

Power Input Voltage Requirements Current Requirements Connector Marking
External power 5V ±2% (±100mV) for USB host operation.4.3V to 5.5V if USB host operation is not required.	Recommended minimum is 1A to be able to provide enough current for connected USB devices and the board itself.Recommended maximum is 2A due to the input protection maximum current specification.	PWR
Embedded debugger USB	4.4V to 5.25V (according to USB spec.)	500mA (according to USB spec.)	DEBUG USB
External HV input 6V to 28V Voltage regulator in SBC	is specified for up to 85mA. This input also supplies the LIN Bus and all the other features of the SBC. It's recommended to use at least 500mA.	VS and GND on Connector HV

The kit will automatically detect which power sources are available and choose which one to use according to the following priority:

1. External power.
2. Embedded Debugger USB.
3. External HV input

Note: The selection for the supply of the Target MCU has a separate connector. The above priority selects which supply is used to power the EDBG and the VCC_P3V3_CON.

Info: External power is required when 500mA from a USB connector is not enough to power the board with possible extension boards.

3.4. Xplained Pro Headers and Connectors

3.4.1. Xplained Pro Standard Extension Header

All Xplained Pro kits have one or more dual row, 20-pin, 100mil extension header. Xplained Pro MCU boards have male headers, while Xplained Pro extensions have their female counterparts.

5. Hardware Revision History and Known Issues

5.1. Identifying Product ID and Revision

The revision and product identifier of Xplained Pro boards can be found in two ways; either through Atmel Studio or by looking at the sticker on the bottom side of the PCB.

By connecting an Xplained Pro MCU board to a computer with Atmel Studio running, an information window will pop up. The first six digits of the serial number, which is listed under kit details, contain the product identifier and revision. Information about connected Xplained Pro extension boards will also appear in the Atmel Kit's window.

The same information can be found on the sticker on the bottom side of the PCB. Most kits will print the identifier and revision in plain text as A09-nnnn\rr, where nnnn is the identifier and rr is the revision. Boards with limited space have a sticker with only a QR-code, which contains a serial number string.

The serial number string has the following format:

"nnnnrrsssssssssss"
n = product identifier
r = revision
s = serial number 

The product identifier for SAM HA1G16A Xplained Pro is A09-2482.

5.2. Revision 3

Revision 3 is the initially released revision, there are no known issues.
