Description
The Atmel SAM4S series is a member of a family of Flash
microcontrollers based on the high performance 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4
RISC processor. It operates at a maximum speed of 120 MHz and
features up to 2048 Kbytes of Flash, with optional dual bank
implementation and cache memory, and up to 160 Kbytes of SRAM. The
peripheral set includes a Full Speed USB Device port with embedded
transceiver, a High Speed MCI for SDIO/SD/MMC, an External Bus
Interface featuring a Static Memory Controller providing connection
to SRAM, PSRAM, NOR Flash, LCD Module and NAND Flash, 2x USARTs, 2x
UARTs, 2x TWIs, 3x SPI, an I2S, as well as 1 PWM timer, 2x three
channel general-purpose 16-bit timers (with stepper motor and
quadrature decoder logic support), an RTC, a 12-bit ADC, a 12-bit
DAC and an analog comparator.
