Atmel SAMA5D2 Xplained Ultra evaluation kit for Atmel | SMART SAMA5D2 Series of microprocessors

The SAMA5D2 Xplained Ultra evaluation kit is a high-performance, fast prototyping and evaluation platform for the Atmel | SMART SAMA5D2 Series of microprocessors. The board offers multiple memories, including eMMC, DDR3 and QSPI, as well as a comprehensive set of connectivity options. With its secure design architecture, cryptographic acceleration engines and secure boot loader, the product is suitable for point-of-sale (POS), Internet of Things (IoT) and industrial applications requiring anti-cloning, data protection and secure communication transfer.

The Atmel | SMART SAMA5D2 Series is a high-performance, power-efficient embedded MPU based on the ARM Cortex-A5 processor. Security is provided by powerful cryptographic accelerators, by the ARM TrustZone technology securing access to memories and sensitive peripherals, and by several hardware features that safeguard memory content, authenticate software reliability, detect physical attacks and prevent information leakage during code execution.

SAMA5D2 devices feature three software-selectable low-power modes: sleep, wait and backup. Connectivity peripherals include a 10/100 EMAC, USBs, CAN-FDs, FLEXCOMs, UARTs, SPIs and two QSPIs, SDIO/SD/e.MMCs and TWIs/I²C. An event system allows peripherals to receive, react to and send events in active and sleep modes without processor intervention.
