, Windows 7, and Windows 8. Once the Xplained Pro MCU board is powered the green power LED will be lit and Atmel Studio will auto detect which Xplained Pro MCU- and extension board(s) are connected. Atmel Studio will present relevant information like datasheets and kit documentation.
- 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.
When an Xplained Pro extension is connected to an Xplained Pro MCU board the information is read and sent to Atmel Studio. The Atmel Kits extension, installed with Atmel Studio, will give relevant information, code examples, and links to relevant documents.

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.

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 ATBTLC1000 has a 32.768kHz RTC oscillator that is used for BLE activities involving connection events. There is also provision to reconfigure the ATBTLC1000 Xplained Pro board to bypass external crystal oscillator with an external signal capable of driving 2pF on the RTC_CLK_P pin of the ATBTLC1000-MR110CA.
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.
