DGI. The EDBG controls two LEDs on the ATmega4809 Xplained Pro, a power LED and a status LED. The following table provides details on how the LEDs are controlled in different operation modes.
Maximum voltage [mV] uint16_t 3600 Maximum current [mA] uint16_t Power Sources The ATmega4809 Xplained Pro kit can be powered by several power sources, as listed in the following table. Table 3-3. Power Sources for ATmega4809 Xplained Pro Power Source Voltage Requirements Current Requirements...

3.4.2 Xplained Pro Power Header The power header can be used to connect external power to the ATmega4809 Xplained Pro kit. The kit automatically detects and switches to any external power, if supplied. The power header can also be used to supply power to external peripherals or extension boards. Ensure that the total current does not exceed the recommended current limit of the on-board regulator when using the 3.3V pin.
The following sections describe the implementation of the relevant connectors, headers, and peripherals on ATmega4809 Xplained Pro, and their connection to the ATmega4809. The tables of connections in the sections also describe which signals are shared between the connectors, headers, and peripherals. The figure below shows all available headers, connectors, jumpers, and peripherals on ATmega4809 Xplained Pro.
If not, the EDBG power LED will blink rapidly and the switch will stay closed resulting in no power provided to the ATmega4809, on-board peripherals, and connectors. As the ATmega4809 Xplained Pro can be powered by 5.0V care must be taken not to connect CAUTION any Xplained Pro extensions that do not support this voltage, doing so may result in permanent damage.
ATmega4809 Xplained Pro Hardware User Guide Connectors 4.2.1 Xplained Pro Standard Extension Headers The Xplained Pro extension headers EXT1, EXT2, and EXT3 offer access to the I/O of the microcontroller to expand the board, for example, by connecting extensions to the board. These headers are based on the standard Xplained Pro extension header specification and the connections are shown in the table below.

4.2.3 AVR Debugger Connector ATmega4809 Xplained Pro has a 10-pin 50-mil AVR Debug Connector (J202) with UPDI that can be used to attach external debuggers to the ATmega4809. Microchip debugging tools like the Atmel-ICE and Power Debugger can connect directly to this connector.
4.3.1 Crystals ATmega4809 Xplained Pro has a 32.768 kHz crystal that can be used as clock source for the ATmega4809 device. There are cut-straps located close to the crystals that can be used to measure the oscillator safety factor. This is done by cutting the strap and adding a resistor across the strap. More...
EXT2, DEBUG, EDBG 4.3.3 There is one yellow LED available on the ATmega4809 Xplained Pro board that can be turned ON and OFF. The LED can be activated by driving the connected I/O line to GND. Table 4-8. LED Connection ATmega4809 Pin...

4.5.1 Operation at Other Voltages The ATmega4809 Xplained Pro board is operated at 3.3V or 5.0V by default, but it also has the possibility of running at other voltages from an external supply. All signals between the EDBG and the ATmega4809 are level-shifted through level shifters compatible with supply voltages from 1.65V to 5.5V.
ATmega4809 Xplained Pro Appendix Appendix Getting Started with IAR ® ® IAR Embedded Workbench for AVR is a proprietary high-efficiency compiler which is not based on ™ GCC. Programming and debugging of Xplained Pro kits are supported in IAR Embedded Workbench for AVR using the Atmel-ICE interface.
Revision 4 has a new PCB that fixes the SPI MISO/MOSI issue in revision 3. Instead of the crystal documented in Crystals, the 32.768 kHz crystal on ATmega4809 Xplained Pro revision 4 is a Kyocera Corporation ST3215SB32768E0HPWBB 9 pF crystal. This crystal configuration is not optimally matches and has a capacitance mismatch that causes the oscillation frequency to be off by ~30 ppm.
ATmega4809 Xplained Pro Hardware Revision History Revision 3 Revision 3 is the initially released revision. Engineering samples with part number ATMEGA4809-MFRES is mounted on revision 3 of ATmega4809 Xplained Pro. Pin 10 of the AVR UPDI debug connector (J202) is not connected to GND on revision 3 of ATmega4809 Xplained Pro.
