DATASHEET

Description

The SAM4CP series belongs to Atmel® │SMART energy portfolio. It is based on SAM4C, a

high performance 32-bit, dual core ARM® Cortex®-M4 RISC processor embedding a PRIME

PLC [Power Line Communication] modem. The cores are able to operate at a maximum speed

of 120 MHz, featuring 1 Mbyte of embedded Flash, 128 kBytes of SRAM and on-chip cache for

each core.

SAM4CP unique dual ARM Cortex-M4 architecture supports implementation of signal pro-

cessing, application and communications firmware in independent partitions. SAM4CP16B

system-on-chip includes a PRIME modem, being PRIME [PoweR line Intelligent Metering Evo-

lution] an open standard technology used for Smart Grid applications, mainly Smart Metering.

Atmel PRIME modem implementation includes enhanced PHY layer features such as addi-

tional robust modes and frequency band extension.

The peripheral set includes advanced cryptographic engine, anti-tamper, floating point unit

(FPU), 5x USARTs, 2x UARTs, 2x TWIs, 6 x SPI, as well as 1 PWM timer, 2x three channel

general-purpose 16-bit timers an RTC, a 10-bit ADC, and a 46 x 5 Segmented LCD controller.

The SAM4CP series is a scalable platform providing, alongside Atmel’s industry leading SAM4

standard microcontrollers, unprecedented cost structure, performance and flexibility to smart

meter designers worldwide.

It operates from 1.62V to 3.6V and is available in 176-pin LQFP package.
