1.2. Kit Overview The Atmel SAM V71 Xplained Ultra evaluation kit is a hardware platform to evaluate the Atmel ATSAMV71Q21. The kit offers a set of features that enables the ATSAMV71Q21 user to get started with the SAM V70 and SAM V71 peripherals right away and to get an understanding of how to integrate the device in their own design.
, Windows 7, and Windows 8. Once the kit is powered the green power LED will be lit and Atmel Studio will auto detect the kit and which Xplained Pro extension board(s) are connected. Atmel Studio will present relevant information like datasheets and kit documentation.
Atmel Data Visualizer is used to send and receive data through DGI. The EDBG controls two LEDs on SAM V71 Xplained Ultra; a power LED and a status LED. Table 3-1 EDBG LED Control on page 7 shows how the LEDs are controlled in different operation modes.
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.

Xplained Pro Power Header The power header can be used to connect external power to the SAM V71 Xplained Ultra kit. The kit will automatically detect and switch to any external power if supplied. The power header can also be used as supply for external peripherals or extension boards.
Hardware Users Guide 4.1. Power Distribution SAM V71 Xplained Ultra has four power sources as described in Power Sources on page 8. Figure 4-1 Power Supply Block Diagram on page 13 shows a block diagram of the power supply circuitry, the related I/O pins are described in Table 4-1 Power Distribution Signals...

4.2.1. Extension Headers The Xplained Pro headers EXT1 and EXT2 on SAM V71 Xplained Ultra offers access to the I/O of the microcontroller in order to expand the board e.g. by connecting extensions to the board. The headers have a pitch of 2.54mm.
Arduino Due. Caution: Like the Arduino Due, SAM V71 Xplained Ultra runs at 3.3V and the maximum voltage that the I/O pins can tolerate is 3.3V, providing higher voltages like 5V to an I/O pin could damage the board.

MOST (Media Oriented Systems Transport) Network data, or to communicate with other applications, with minimum effort. On SAM V71 Xplained Ultra the MLB module of the ATSAMV71Q21 is connected to a MediaLB connector implemented with a 40 pin SAMTEC QSH-020-01-L-D-DP-A.
4.2.6. The SAM V71 Xplained Ultra has a Micro-USB connector for use with the SAM V71 USB module labeled as TARGET USB on the kit. In USB host mode VBUS voltage is provided by the kit and has to be enabled by setting the "VBUS Host Enable"...
4.2.9. VDDCORE Current Measurement A 1x2, 100mil pin-header marked with J201 is located at the center of the SAM V71 Xplained Ultra. All power to VCCDORE of the ATSAMV71Q21 is routed through this header. To measure the power consumption of VDDCORE remove the jumper and replace it with an ampere meter.
4.3.1. Crystals The SAM V71 Xplained Ultra kit contains two crystals that can be used as clock sources for the SAM V71 device. The crystals have cut-straps next to them that can be used to measure the oscillator safety factor.
Chip Erase 4.3.3. LEDs There are two yellow LEDs available on the SAM V71 Xplained Ultra board that can be turned on and off. The LEDs can be activated by driving the connected I/O line to GND. Table 4-22 LED Connection...
Shield NBS1 4.3.5. QSPI Flash The SAM V71 Xplained Ultra features one external SPANSION, S25FL116K, 2MB, QSPI Flash. QSPI Slash access can be configured in the QSPI module in the SAM V71. Table 4-24 QSPI Flash Connections on page 31 lists all I/O-lines connected to the QSPI Flash.
PA11 Chip Select 4.3.6. SD Card The SAM V71 Xplained Ultra has one standard SD card connector which is connected to High Speed Multimedia Card Interface (HSMCI) of the SAM V71. Table 4-25 SD Card Connection on page 31 lists all I/O-lines connected to the SD card connector.
Quiet-WIRE filtering enabled 4.3.8. AT24MAC402 The SAM V71 Xplained Ultra features one external AT24MAC402 serial EEPROM with a EIA-48 MAC address connected to the SAM V71 through I C. This device contain a MAC address for use with the Ethernet interface.
4.3.10. Audio and External PLL SAM V71 Xplained Ultra includes a WOLFSON WM8904 Audio CODEC for input and output of digital sound, the kit has two 3.5mm stereo jacks for microphone input and headphone output. There is also an (optional) external PLL, Cirrus Logic CS2100CP, that can be used to generate a reference clock to the WM8904.
Several of Atmels security devices, including CryptoAuthentication devices like the ATSAH204A, only requires I C to interface and they share the same packages and pinouts. SAM V71 Xplained Ultra has implemented SOIC8 and UDFN8 footprints for these devices so the user may solder them on themselves.
4.4. Zero Ohm Resistors SAM V71 Xplained Ultra has several zero ohm resistors that can be used to disconnect I/O pins of the ATSAMV71Q21 from connectors and on-board ICs and to disconnect power signals. All Arduino pin numbers are listed in Arduino Connectors on page 18.

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.
6.5.1. PCB Revision Marking One thousand SAM V71 Xplained Ultra revision 8 kits have revision 3 PCBs (A08-2216) that are marked with "Revision 2" under the location of the serial number sticker. These PCBs can be identified by the addition of the "USB VBUS" and "SUPER CAP" connectors shown Figure 4-2 ...
IRQ1 (EXT4), and Xplained Pro extension header 1 IRQ (EXT1). If a camera with 10-bit mode is used together with a display connected to EXT4 the display IRQ line will conflict with the camera. On revision 6 of SAM V71 Xplained Ultra pin 41 (DISPLAY ENABLE) on the LCD connector is not connected to anything (floating).
