INTRODUCTION:
Atmel's
ATSAM3S4BA-AU
is a member of a series of Flash microcon-
trollers based on the high performance 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 RISC processor. It
operates at a maximum speed of 64 MHz and features a 256 Kbyte Flash and a 48
Kbyte SRAM, Full Speed USB Device port with embedded transceiver, a High
Speed MCI for SDIO/SD/MMC, an External Bus Interface featuring a Static Mem-
ory Controller providing connection to SRAM, PSRAM, NOR Flash and NAND
Flash, 2x USARTs, 2xUARTs, 2xTWIs, 3xSPI, an I2S, as well as 1 PWM timer, 6x
general-purpose 16-bit timers, an RTC, an ADC, a 12-bit DAC and an analog com-
parator.
SAM3-P256
has JTAG, UEXT, USB and two RS232 connectors, power jack,
potentiometer, two user buttons, two status LEDs, power-on led, reset button and
prototype area for all microcontroller's ports. All this gives the customer chance to
build a wide range of applications.

ELECTROSTATIC WARNING:
The
SAM3-P256
board is shipped in protective anti-static packaging. The board
must not be subject to high electrostatic potentials. General practice for working
with static sensitive devices should be applied when working with this board.
BOARD USE REQUIREMENTS:
Cables:
The cable you will need depends on the programmer/debugger you use.
OLIMEX debuggers need USB type B to USB type A cable to connect to a
computer.
Hardware:
The best idea is to use a debugger made by Atmel, since the main
microcontroller is made by Atmel.
Another reliable choice is Segger's JLINK which is well-supported works with most
ARM products.
If you are looking for open-source development please check the Olimex-made
debuggers:
ARM-USB-OCD, ARM-USB-TINY, ARM-USB-OCD-H, ARM-USB-
TINY-H
if you work with OpenOCD, IAR EW for ARM, Rowley Crossworks for
ARM, CooCox, GCC compilers, etc.
