APPLICATION NOTE
Atmel AT03462: ATSAM3X and ATSAM3A Series -
Checklist
Atmel ARM Cortex-M3 Product Family (SAM3)
Introduction
A good hardware design comes from a perfect schematic. Therefore this Application
Note is a schematic review check list for systems embedding the Atmel
®
SAM3X/A
series of ARM
®
Cortex
®
-M3, Thumb-2-based microcontrollers.
It gives requirements concerning the different pin connections that must be
considered before starting any new board design and describes the minimum
hardware resources required to quickly develop an application with the SAM3X/A
devices. It does not consider PCB layout constraints.
It also gives advice regarding low-power design constraints to minimize power
consumption.
This Application Note is not intended to be exhaustive. Its objective is to cover as
many configurations of use as possible.
The Check List table has a column reserved for reviewing designers to verify that the
line item has been checked.
