2. Getting Started 2.1. Xplained Pro Quick Start Three steps to start exploring the Atmel Xplained Pro platform: 1. Download Atmel Studio. 2. Launch Atmel Studio. 3. Connect ATBTLC1000 Xplained Pro to an Xplained Pro MCU board and connect a USB cable to the DEBUG USB port on the Xplained Pro MCU board. When the Xplained Pro MCU kit is connected to your computer for the first time, the operating system will ® perform a driver software installation.
3. Design Documentation and Relevant Links The following list contains links to the most relevant documents and software for ATBTLC1000 Xplained Pro: • • • • • • • • • Xplained Pro products - Atmel Xplained Pro is a series of small-sized and easy-to-use evaluation kits for Atmel microcontrollers and other Atmel products. It consists of a series of low-cost MCU boards for evaluation and demonstration of features and capabilities of different MCU families.
4. Xplained Pro Xplained Pro is an evaluation platform that provides the full Atmel microcontroller experience. The platform consists of a series of Microcontroller (MCU) boards and extension boards, which are integrated with Atmel Studio, have Atmel Software Framework (ASF) drivers and demo code, support data streaming, and more. Xplained Pro MCU boards support a wide range of Xplained Pro extension boards, which are connected through a set of standardized headers and connectors.

5. Hardware Users Guide 5.1. Electrical Characteristics ATBTLC1000 Xplained Pro can be connected to several Xplained Pro MCU boards and manually connected to other hardware. Xplained Pro MCU board(s) that does not have 3.3V as it's primary target voltage will read all ID devices on connected extensions to check if they support the target voltage before enabling it to the extension headers. The table below shows the static content written in the ID chip.

Current Measurement Header Current Measurement header J101 can be used to measure the current consumed by the ATBTLC1000 module using an ammeter.
5.3. Peripherals 5.3.1. External Flash ATBTLC1000 Xplained Pro provides a footprint for an external flash (U103), the design is tested with an ISSI IS25LD020-JNLE 2Mb flash. By default the flash is connected to the SPI Master/Slave interface of the ATBTLC1000 module, which is also connected to the Xplained Pro extension header. The SPI Flash master interface of the ATBTLC1000 can also be used to control the external flash by reconfiguring the jumper straps (J109-J112) as below.
Pin on EXT connector Pin name AT30TSE758 temperature sensor pin Comment - A0 7 Address line for serial interface, shorted to GND 20 VCC 8 The temperature sensor has two I2C addresses; one for the temperature sensor and one for the EEPROM. The addresses are "0b1001 A2 A1 A0" for the temperature sensor and "0b1010 A2 A1 A0" for the EEPROM. The address selection lines (A2, A1, and A0) of the temperature sensor are shorted to GND, which makes the default addresses 0b1001000 and 0b1010000.
6. Hardware Revision History and Known Issues 6.1. Identifying Product ID and Revision The revision and product identifier of Xplained Pro boards can be found in two ways; either through Atmel Studio or by looking at the sticker on the bottom side of the PCB. By connecting an Xplained Pro MCU board to a computer with Atmel Studio running, an information window will pop up. The first six digits of the serial number, which is listed under kit details, contain the product identifier and revision.
Figure 6-1 Chip Enable Workaround When the modification is done the pin-out table in Table 5-2 ATBTLC1000 Xplained Pro Extension Header EXT1 on page 9 is changed according to the table below.
7. Document Revision History Doc. rev. Date Comment 42538B 11/2015 Added revision 2 ERRATA. Added temperature sensor, and electrical characteristics chapter. Updated the external flash chapter. 42538A 09/2015 Initial document release.
