1.1 Electrostatic Warning

Warning: ESD-Sensitive Electronic Equipment!

Microchip ATSAM4C8 - Electrostatic Warning - 1

The evaluation kit is shipped in a protective anti-static package. The board system must not be subjected to high electrostatic discharge.

We strongly recommend using a grounding strap or similar ESD protective device when handling the board in hostile ESD environments (offices with synthetic carpet, for example). Avoid touching the component pins or any other metallic element on the board.

1.2 Battery

The ATSAM4C-EK ships with a 3V coin battery. This battery is not required for the board to start up as long as Jumper JP8 is closed.

The coin battery is provided for user convenience in case the user would like to exercise the date and time backup function of the SAM4C devices when the board is switched off.

1.3 Recovery Procedure

The demo software is stored in internal Flash memory. If the content of the internal Flash has been erased, it can be reprogrammed recovered to the state as it was when shipped by Atmel using Atmel SAM-BA ^® In-system Programmer available on the Atmel website (www.atmel.com/tools/atmelsam-bain-systemprogrammer.aspx). The binary file of the demo software is available on the Atmel website in the ATSAM4C-EK Evaluation Kit Section (http://www.atmel.com/tools/SAM4C-EK.aspx).

2. Power Up

2.1 Power up the Board

Unpack the board taking care to avoid electrostatic discharge. Unpack the power supply, select the right power plug adapter corresponding to that of your country, and insert it in the power supply.

Connect the power supply DC connector to the board and plug the power supply to an AC power plug. The board LCD should light up and display a graphic demo program.

2.2 Sample Code and Technical Support

After boot up, designers can run sample code or their own application, on the development kit. Users can download sample code and get technical support from the Atmel website. The ATSAM4C-EK is supported by the Atmel Software Framework (ASF) (http://www.atmel.com/tools/AVRSOFTWAREFRAMEWORK.aspx).

3. Evaluation Kit Hardware

3.1 Overview

This section introduces the Atmel SAM4C Evaluation Kit design. It introduces system-level concepts, such as power distribution, memory, and interface assignments.

The Atmel SAM4C16C and SAM4C8C microcontrollers are system-on-chip solutions for smart energy applications, built around two high-performance 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4 RISC processors. These devices operate at a maximum speed of 120MHz and feature up to 1 Mbyte of embedded Flash, 152 Kbytes of SRAM and on-chip cache for each core.

The dual ARM Cortex-M4 architecture allows for integration of application layer, communications layers and security functions in a single device, with the ability to extend program and data memory via a 16-bit external bus interface. The peripheral set includes an advanced cryptographic engine, two anti-tamper pins with time-stamping function, floating point unit (FPU), five USARTs, two UARTs, two TWIs, up to seven SPIs, as well as a PWM timer, two 3-channel general-purpose 16-bit timers, temperature compensable low-power RTC running on backup area down to 0.5 A , and a 50× 6 segmented LCD controller.

The SAM4C series is a scalable platform providing, alongside Atmel's industry leading SAM4 standard microcontrollers, unprecedented cost structure, performance and flexibility to smart meter designers worldwide.

3.9.3 Temperature Sensor

The Atmel AT30TS75 temperature sensor converts temperatures from -40^ to +125^ to a digital word and provides a typical accuracy of ±0.5^ over the operating temperature range of 0^ to +85^ . The device is factory calibrated and requires no external components to help provide a cost effective solution. To reduce current consumption and save power, the AT30TS75 features a shutdown mode that turns off all internal circuitry except for the internal power-on reset and serial interface circuits. In addition, the device features a power saving one-shot mode that allows the device to make a temperature measurement and update the temperature register and then return to shutdown mode.

Device slave address byte: 0x48.

3.11 LEDs and Buttons

The ATSAM4C-EK is equipped with two user push buttons and three LEDs.

3.11.1 Discrete LEDs

Indicators on the main board include three discrete LEDs:

• 1 blue LED connected to a PIO
• 1 amber LED connected to a PWM output
• 1 green LED connected to a PWM output

3.11.2 Push Buttons

The EK board is equipped with four system push buttons and two user push buttons. The push buttons consist of momentary push button switches mounted directly to the board. When any switch is depressed it will cause a low (zero) to appear at the associated input pin.

• System push buttons:
• NRST (Reset, perform system reset)
• FWPU (Force Wake-Up)
- TMP0 (Tamper)
- TMP2 (Tamper)

- User push buttons:

It is possible to select the pull-up level for Tamper TMP0 pin. By selecting PB1 instead of VDDBU, it allows to end user a dynamic tampering synchronized with RTCOUT pin. It allows a diminution of the power consumption when the button is pressed (divided by the Duty Cycle applied on RTCOUT Output signal).

It is possible to use the TMP2 Push Button as another Tamper input. By using this feature, the end user must use JTAG in 2-wire mode (SWIO and SWD) due to the loss of the TDO pin. In this case TMP2 is pull-up at RTCOUT Level (PB1 pin) and can be managed dynamically synchronized with the RTCOUT pin.

3.12 Miscellaneous I/O

This board is equipped with additional I/O connectors which allow the measurements of specific points are allow the connection of an additional extension board.

1 VTref 33V powerThis is the target reference voltage. It is used to check if the target has power, to create the logic-level reference for the input comparators, and to control the output logic levels to the target. It is normally fed from VDD on the target board and must not have a series resistor.
2 Vsupply3.3V powerThis pin is not connected in SAM-ICE. It is reserved for compatibility with other equipment. Connect to VDD or leave open in target system.
3 nTRSTTARGET RESETJTAG Reset (active-low output signal that resets the target). Output from SAM-ICE to the Reset signal on the target JTAG port. Typically connected to nTRST on the target CPU. This pin is normally pulled HIGH on the target to avoid unintentional resets when there is no connection.
5 TDI TEST DATA INPUTJTAG data input of target CPU (serial data output line, sampled on the rising edge of the TCK signal). It is recommended that this pin is pulled to a defined state on the target board. Typically connected to TDI on target CPU.
7 TMS TEST MODE SELECTJTAG mode set input of target CPU. This pin should be pulled up on the target. Typically connected to TMS on target CPU. Output signal that sequences the target's JTAG state machine, sampled on the rising edge of the TCK signal.
9 TCK TEST CLOCKJTAG clock signal to target CPU (output timing signal, for synchronizing test logic and control register access). It is recommended that this pin is pulled to a defined state on the target board. Typically connected to TCK on target CPU.
11 RTCKInput Return test clock signal from the target.Some targets must synchronize the JTAG inputs to internal clocks. To assist in meeting this requirement, a returned and retimed TCK can be used to dynamically control the TCK rate. SAM-ICE supports adaptive clocking which waits for TCK changes to be echoed correctly before making further changes. Connect to RTCK if available, otherwise to GND
13TDO JTAG TEST DATA OUTPUTJTAG data output from target CPU (serial data input from the target). Typically connected to TDO on target CPU.

4. Evaluation Kit Firmware Demonstration

4.1 ATSAM4C-EK Default Application

The ATSAM4C-EK is delivered with a preprogrammed default application in SAM4C Flash memory. This application implements SAM4C embedded peripherals and external (on-board) peripherals as detailed in the table below.

Table 4-1.

SAM4C Embedded Peripheral Connected to External (on-board) Peripheral
Real-Time Clock (RTC) —
Anti-Tamper BP3 Push Button
Two-wire Interface Temperature Sensor AT30TS75
Segmented LCD Custom Atmel Display
SAM4C Core 1 —
10-bit ADC Internal ADC channel connected to Battery Backup Power Rail (VDDBU)

After the first power-up without the backup battery, the time (hour and minute) of the RTC can be configured. The Hour and Minute settings are entered using the following push buttons:

BP4 (SCROLL-UP)—sets the Hour (24H mode entries must be made)
BP5 (SCROLL-DOWN)—sets the Minute
BP6 (TMP2)—saves the Hour and Minute settings

Once the time settings have been saved, BP4 (SCROLL-UP) can be used to toggle the Hour display between 12H or 24H mode.

Note: RTC time configuration can be skipped by pressing BP6.

Once the Hour and Minute have been configured, the main application on core 0 runs in an infinite loop, repeating the following steps:

• Every second, the time is displayed with colon (:) icon blinking
• Every fifteen (15) seconds, the VDDBU pin voltage is measured and displayed ^(1)
• Every thirty (30) seconds, the temperature (using the AT30TS75) is measured and displayed in °C and in °F.

Note: 1. On the ATSAM4C-EK, the voltage measured is the VDDIO voltage minus the forward voltage of the diode in the BAT54C (D4).

At startup, the main application configures the core 1 subsystem to run a CoreMark algorithm from the core 1 SRAM memories (SRAM1 and SRAM2). Once the CoreMark is finished, the result of the CoreMark (number of CoreMark/MHz) is passed to the main application using the inter-processor communication embedded in the SAM4C. Once the result is retrieved by the main application, the result of the CoreMark is displayed and the CoreMark algorithm running on core 1 is restarted. An ammeter connected either on JP12 (VDDIN) or on JP6 (VDDCORE) can measure the active current consumption of both cores.

4.2 Measuring the Backup mode current consumption on VDDBU

The SAM4C has an ultra-low-power mode RTC and Supply controller allowing less than 1 A (typical) on VDDBU, with the following functions/peripherals configuration:

• 32.768 kHz Crystal Oscillator enabled
• POR backup on VDDBU disabled
- RTC running
• RTT enabled on 1 Hz mode
• Force wake-up (FWUP) enabled
• Anti-tamper Input (TMP0) enabled

To measure the current consumption on VDDBU when in backup mode, JP9 (Shutdown control) must be opened and an ammeter connected on JP8 (VDDBU) as described in the following procedure:

  1. Power off the board using SW1
  2. Insert the 3V lithium battery provided in the battery holder
  3. Place an ammeter (with sufficient capacity to measure current lower than 1μA) on JP8
  4. Power on the board using SW1
  5. (optional) Set the RTC as described above
  6. Press the push button BP5 (SCROLL-DOWN) to place the board in low-power mode

Before shutdown, the following messages are displayed on the LCD:

"ENTERING BACKUP MODE"

"PRESS FWUP BP1 TO WAKE UP"

"USE BP3 TO GENERATE TAMPER EVENTS"

Blinking "BYE"

At this point, the current consumption on the ammeter should be less than 1 A @ 25^ @ 3V.

Once in backup mode, the Anti-tamper pin 0 (TMP0) is enabled. BP3 (TMP0) push button can be used to generate tamper events before waking up the board. Tamper events are registered without waking up the board. Up to 15 tamper events can be registered. To wake up the board, press BP1 (FWUP). Upon start-up, the number of tamper events and time-stamping of the tamper events are displayed on the LCD.
