Pin-to-pin compatible with SAM7S legacy products (48/64-pin versions) and SAM3S (48/64/100-pin versions)

The SAM3S2C is a member of the Microchip's SAM3S series microcontrollers based on the high-performance 32-bit ARM® Cortex®-M3 RISC processor. It operates at a maximum speed of 64MHz and features 128KB of flash memory and 32KB of SRAM. The extensive peripheral set includes a Full Speed USB device port with embedded transceiver, a high-speed multimedia card interface for SDIO/SD/MMC, an external bus interface featuring a static memory controller providing connection to SRAM, PSRAM, NOR Flash, LCD module and NAND flash, two USARTs, two UARTs, two TWIs (I2C), three SPI, I2S, PWM timer, six 16-bit timers, RTC, 15-ch 12-bit ADC, 2-ch 12-bit DAC, and an analog comparator. The SAM3S2C is ready for capacitive touch thanks to the QTouch library, offering an easy way to implement buttons, wheels, and sliders. The parallel data capture mode on the PIOs complements the external bus interface for data collection from external devices not compliant with standard memory read protocols, such as low-cost image sensors. DMA transfers the data to memory, offloading the CPU. It operates from 1.62V to 3.6V and is available in 100-pin QFP and QFN packages. The SAM3S2C is pin-to-pin compatible with the SAM3N2C.

Microchip's ARM®-based SAM3U4E is a member of the SAM3U family of flash microcontrollers based on the high-performance 32-bit ARM Cortex®-M3 RISC processor. It operates at a maximum speed of 96MHz and features two 128KB of dual-bank flash memory and 52KB of SRAM. The peripheral set includes a High Speed USB device and PHY at 480Mbps, high-speed multimedia card interface for SDIO/SD/MMC, a 16-bit external bus interface supporting NAND flash, three USARTs, two TWIs (I2C), four SPIs, I2S, four PWM timers, three 16-bit timers, RTC, and eight 12-bit and eight 10-bit ADCs. The architecture sustains high-speed data transfers, with multi-layer bus matrix, multiple SRAM banks, PDC, and DMA support parallel tasks to maximize data throughput. The SAM3U4C operates from 1.62V to 3.6V and is available in 144-pin LQFP and BGA packages.
