SAM3S Summary
1. SAM3S Description
Atmel's SAM3S series is a member of a family of 32-bit Flash microcontrollers based on the high
performance ARM Cortex-M3 processor. It operates at a maximum speed of 64 MHz and fea-
tures up to 256 Kbytes of Flash and up to 48 Kbytes of SRAM. The peripheral set includes a Full
Speed USB Device port with embedded transceiver, a High Speed MCI 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, 2x USARTs, 2x UARTs, 2x TWIs, 3x SPI,
an I2S, as well as 1 PWM timer, 6x general-purpose 16-bit timers, an RTC, an ADC, a 12-bit
DAC and an analog comparator.
The SAM3S series is ready for capacitive touch thanks to the QTouch library, offering an easy
way to implement buttons, wheels and sliders
The SAM3S device is a medium range general purpose microcontroller with the best ratio in
terms of reduced power consumption, processing power and peripheral set. This enables the
SAM3S to sustain a wide range of applications including consumer, industrial control, and PC
peripherals.
It operates from 1.62V to 3.6V and is available in 48-, 64- and 100-pin QFP, 48- and 64-pin
QFN, and 100-pin BGA packages.
The SAM3S series is the ideal migration path from the SAM7S series for applications that
require more performance. The SAM3S series is pin-to-pin compatible with the SAM7S series.
1.1 Configuration Summary
The SAM3S microcontrollers differ in memory size, package and features list. Table 1-1 below
summarizes the configurations of the device family

SAM3S Summary
Notes: 1. Schmitt Triggers can be disabled through PIO registers.
2. Some PIO lines are shared with System IOs.
3. Refer to the USB sub section in the product Electrical Characteristics Section for Pull-down value in USB Mode.
4. See Section 5.3 “Typical Powering Schematics” for restriction on voltage range of Analog Cells.
5. TDO pin is set in input mode when the Cortex-M3 Core is not in debug mode. Thus the internal pull-up corresponding to this
PIO line must be enabled to avoid current consumption due to floating input.

SAM3S Summary
5. Power Considerations
5.1 Power Supplies
The SAM3S product has several types of power supply pins:
VDDCORE pins: Power the core, the embedded memories and the peripherals; voltage
ranges from 1.62V and 1.95V.
VDDIO pins: Power the Peripherals I/O lines (Input/Output Buffers); USB transceiver; Backup
part, 32kHz crystal oscillator and oscillator pads; ranges from 1.62V and 3.6V
VDDIN pin: Voltage Regulator Input, ADC, DAC and Analog Comparator Power Supply;
Voltage ranges from 1.8V to 3.6V
VDDPLL pin: Powers the PLLA, PLLB, the Fast RC and the 3 to 20 MHz oscillator; voltage
ranges from 1.62V and 1.95V.
5.2 Voltage Regulator
The SAM3S embeds a voltage regulator that is managed by the Supply Controller.
This internal regulator is intended to supply the internal core of SAM3S. It features two different
operating modes:
In Normal mode, the voltage regulator consumes less than 700 µA static current and draws
80 mA of output current. Internal adaptive biasing adjusts the regulator quiescent current
depending on the required load current. In Wait Mode quiescent current is only 7 µA.
• In Backup mode, the voltage regulator consumes less than 1 µA while its output (VDDOUT) is
driven internally to GND. The default output voltage is 1.80V and the start-up time to reach Nor-
mal mode is inferior to 100 µs.
For adequate input and output power supply decoupling/bypassing, refer to the Voltage Regula-
tor section in the Electrical Characteristics section of the datasheet.
5.3 Typical Powering Schematics
The SAM3S supports a 1.62V-3.6V single supply mode. The internal regulator input connected
to the source and its output feeds VDDCORE. Figure 5-1 shows the power schematics.
As VDDIN powers the voltage regulator, the ADC/DAC and the analog comparator, when the
user does not want to use the embedded voltage regulator, it can be disabled by software via
the SUPC (note that it is different from Backup mode).

Figure 5-3 below provides an example of the powering scheme when using a backup battery.
Since the PIO state is preserved when in backup mode, any free PIO line can be used to switch
off the external regulator by driving the PIO line at low level (PIO is input, pull-up enabled after
backup reset). External wake-up of the system can be from a push button or any signal. See
Section 5.6 “Wake-up Sources” for further details.

SAM3S Summary

5.4 Active Mode
Active mode is the normal running mode with the core clock running from the fast RC oscillator,
the main crystal oscillator or the PLLA. The power management controller can be used to adapt
the frequency and to disable the peripheral clocks.
5.5 Low Power Modes
The various low power modes of the SAM3S are described below:
5.5.1 Backup Mode
The purpose of backup mode is to achieve the lowest power consumption possible in a system
which is performing periodic wake-ups to perform tasks but not requiring fast startup time
(<0.1ms). Total current consumption is 3 µA typical.
The Supply Controller, zero-power power-on reset, RTT, RTC, Backup registers and 32 kHz
oscillator (RC or crystal oscillator selected by software in the Supply Controller) are running. The
regulator and the core supply are off.
Backup mode is based on the Cortex-M3 deepsleep mode with the voltage regulator disabled.
The SAM3S can be awakened from this mode through WUP0-15 pins, the supply monitor (SM),
the RTT or RTC wake-up event.
Backup mode is entered by using WFE instructions with the SLEEPDEEP bit in the System Con-
trol Register of the Cortex-M3 set to 1. (See the Power management description in The ARM
Cortex M3 Processor section of the product datasheet).
Exit from Backup mode happens if one of the following enable wake up events occurs:

5.5.2 Wait Mode
The purpose of the wait mode is to achieve very low power consumption while maintaining the
whole device in a powered state for a startup time of less than 10 µs. Current Consumption in
Wait mode is typically 15 µA (total current consumption) if the internal voltage regulator is used
or 8 µA if an external regulator is used.
In this mode, the clocks of the core, peripherals and memories are stopped. However, the core,
peripherals and memories power supplies are still powered. From this mode, a fast start up is
available.
This mode is entered via Wait for Event (WFE) instructions with LPM = 1 (Low Power Mode bit in
PMC_FSMR). The Cortex-M3 is able to handle external events or internal events in order to
wake-up the core (WFE). This is done by configuring the external lines WUP0-15 as fast startup
wake-up pins (refer to Section 5.7 “Fast Startup”). RTC or RTT Alarm and USB wake-up events
can be used to wake up the CPU (exit from WFE).
Entering Wait Mode:
Select the 4/8/12 MHz fast RC oscillator as Main Clock
Set the LPM bit in the PMC Fast Startup Mode Register (PMC_FSMR)
Execute the Wait-For-Event (WFE) instruction of the processor
Note: Internal Main clock resynchronization cycles are necessary between the writing of MOSCRCEN
bit and the effective entry in Wait mode. Depending on the user application, Waiting for
MOSCRCEN bit to be cleared is recommended to ensure that the core will not execute undesired
instructions.
The bit MOSCRCEN should be automatically set to '0'. So you have to add after this instruction
the following: while (MOSCRCEN ==0); so that you are sure to stay in the loop until you awake
from the wait mode. In that case you are sure the core will not continue to fetch the code but
once you have exited the wait mode (in that case MOSCRCEN will be automatically set to '1').
5.5.3 Sleep Mode
The purpose of sleep mode is to optimize power consumption of the device versus response
time. In this mode, only the core clock is stopped. The peripheral clocks can be enabled. The
current consumption in this mode is application dependent.
This mode is entered via Wait for Interrupt (WFI) or Wait for Event (WFE) instructions with
LPM = 0 in PMC_FSMR.
The processor can be woke up from an interrupt if WFI instruction of the Cortex M3 is used, or
from an event if the WFE instruction is used to enter this mode.

5.5.4 Low Power Mode Summary Table
The modes detailed above are the main low power modes. Each part can be set to on or off sep-
arately and wake up sources can be individually configured. Table 5-1 below shows a summary
of the configurations of the low power modes.
Notes: 1. When considering wake-up time, the time required to start the PLL is not taken into account. Once started, the device works
with the 4/8/12 MHz fast RC oscillator. The user has to add the PLL start-up time if it is needed in the system. The wake-up
time is defined as the time taken for wake up until the first instruction is fetched.
2. The external loads on PIOs are not taken into account in the calculation.
3. Supply Monitor current consumption is not included.
4. Total Current consumption.
5. 5 µA on VDDCORE, 15 µA for total current consumption (using internal voltage regulator), 8 µA for total current consumption
(without using internal voltage regulator).
6. Depends on MCK frequency.
7. In this mode the core is supplied and not clocked but some peripherals can be clocked.

5.6 Wake-up Sources
The wake-up events allow the device to exit the backup mode. When a wake-up event is
detected, the Supply Controller performs a sequence which automatically reenables the core
power supply and the SRAM power supply, if they are not already enabled.

5.7 Fast Startup
The device allows the processor to restart in a few microseconds while the processor is in wait
mode. A fast start up can occur upon detection of a low level on one of the 19 wake-up inputs
(WKUP0 to 15 + SM + RTC + RTT).
The fast restart circuitry, as shown in Figure 5-5, is fully asynchronous and provides a fast start-
up signal to the Power Management Controller. As soon as the fast start-up signal is asserted,
the PMC automatically restarts the embedded 4/8/12 MHz fast RC oscillator, switches the mas-
ter clock on this 4MHz clock and reenables the processor clock.

SAM3S Summary
6. Input/Output Lines
The SAM3S has several kinds of input/output (I/O) lines such as general purpose I/Os (GPIO)
and system I/Os. GPIOs can have alternate functionality due to multiplexing capabilities of the
PIO controllers. The same PIO line can be used whether in IO mode or by the multiplexed
peripheral. System I/Os include pins such as test pins, oscillators, erase or analog inputs.
6.1 General Purpose I/O Lines
GPIO Lines are managed by PIO Controllers. All I/Os have several input or output modes such
as pull-up or pull-down, input Schmitt triggers, multi-drive (open-drain), glitch filters, debouncing
or input change interrupt. Programming of these modes is performed independently for each I/O
line through the PIO controller user interface. For more details, refer to the product PIO control-
ler section.
The input output buffers of the PIO lines are supplied through VDDIO power supply rail.
The SAM3S embeds high speed pads able to handle up to 32 MHz for HSMCI (MCK/2), 45 MHz
for SPI clock lines and 35 MHz on other lines. See AC Characteristics Section in the Electrical
Characteristics Section of the datasheet for more details. Typical pull-up and pull-down value is
100 kΩ for all I/Os.
Each I/O line also embeds an ODT (On-Die Termination), see Figure 6-1. It consists of an inter-
nal series resistor termination scheme for impedance matching between the driver output
(SAM3S) and the PCB trace impedance preventing signal reflection. The series resistor helps to
reduce IOs switching current (di/dt) thereby reducing in turn, EMI. It also decreases overshoot
and undershoot (ringing) due to inductance of interconnect between devices or between boards.
In conclusion ODT helps diminish signal integrity issues.
Figure 6-1. On-Die Termination
6.2 System I/O Lines
System I/O lines are pins used by oscillators, test mode, reset and JTAG to name but a few.
Described below are the SAM3S system I/O lines shared with PIO lines:
These pins are software configurable as general purpose I/O or system pins. At startup the
default function of these pins is always used.

SAM3S Summary
Notes: 1. If PB12 is used as PIO input in user applications, a low level must be ensured at startup to prevent Flash erase before the
user application sets PB12 into PIO mode,
2. In the product Datasheet Refer to: Slow Clock Generator of the Supply Controller section.
3. In the product Datasheet Refer to: 3 to 20 MHZ Crystal Oscillator information in PMC section.
6.2.1 Serial Wire JTAG Debug Port (SWJ-DP) Pins
The SWJ-DP pins are TCK/SWCLK, TMS/SWDIO, TDO/SWO, TDI and commonly provided on
a standard 20-pin JTAG connector defined by ARM. For more details about voltage reference
and reset state, refer to Table 3-1 on page 6.
At startup, SWJ-DP pins are configured in SWJ-DP mode to allow connection with debugging
probe. Please refer to the Debug and Test Section of the product datasheet.
SWJ-DP pins can be used as standard I/Os to provide users more general input/output pins
when the debug port is not needed in the end application. Mode selection between SWJ-DP
mode (System IO mode) and general IO mode is performed through the AHB Matrix Special
Function Registers (MATRIX_SFR). Configuration of the pad for pull-up, triggers, debouncing
and glitch filters is possible regardless of the mode.
The JTAGSEL pin is used to select the JTAG boundary scan when asserted at a high level. It
integrates a permanent pull-down resistor of about 15 kΩ to GND, so that it can be left uncon-
nected for normal operations.
By default, the JTAG Debug Port is active. If the debugger host wants to switch to the Serial
Wire Debug Port, it must provide a dedicated JTAG sequence on TMS/SWDIO and
TCK/SWCLK which disables the JTAG-DP and enables the SW-DP. When the Serial Wire
Debug Port is active, TDO/TRACESWO can be used for trace.
The asynchronous TRACE output (TRACESWO) is multiplexed with TDO. So the asynchronous
trace can only be used with SW-DP, not JTAG-DP. For more information about SW-DP and
JTAG-DP switching, please refer to the Debug and Test Section.

SAM3S Summary
6.3 Test Pin
The TST pin is used for JTAG Boundary Scan Manufacturing Test or Fast Flash programming
mode of the SAM3S series. The TST pin integrates a permanent pull-down resistor of about 15
kΩ to GND, so that it can be left unconnected for normal operations. To enter fast programming
mode, see the Fast Flash Programming Interface (FFPI) section. For more on the manufacturing
and test mode, refer to the “Debug and Test” section of the product datasheet.
6.4 NRST Pin
The NRST pin is bidirectional. It is handled by the on-chip reset controller and can be driven low
to provide a reset signal to the external components or asserted low externally to reset the
microcontroller. It will reset the Core and the peripherals except the Backup region (RTC, RTT
and Supply Controller). There is no constraint on the length of the reset pulse and the reset con-
troller can guarantee a minimum pulse length. The NRST pin integrates a permanent pull-up
resistor to VDDIO of about 100 kΩ. By default, the NRST pin is configured as an input.
6.5 ERASE Pin
The ERASE pin is used to reinitialize the Flash content (and some of its NVM bits) to an erased
state (all bits read as logic level 1). It integrates a pull-down resistor of about 100 kΩ to GND, so
that it can be left unconnected for normal operations.
This pin is debounced by SCLK to improve the glitch tolerance. When the ERASE pin is tied high
during less than 100 ms, it is not taken into account. The pin must be tied high during more than
220 ms to perform a Flash erase operation.
The ERASE pin is a system I/O pin and can be used as a standard I/O. At startup, the ERASE
pin is not configured as a PIO pin. If the ERASE pin is used as a standard I/O, startup level of
this pin must be low to prevent unwanted erasing. Please refer to Section 11.2 “Peripheral Sig-
nal Multiplexing on I/O Lines” on page 43. Also, if the ERASE pin is used as a standard I/O
output, asserting the pin to low does not erase the Flash.

SAM3S Summary
9. Memories
9.1 Embedded Memories
9.1.1 Internal SRAM
The ATSAM3S4 product (256-Kbyte internal Flash version) embeds a total of 48 Kbytes high-
speed SRAM.
The ATSAM3S2 product (128-Kbyte internal Flash version) embeds a total of 32 Kbytes high-
speed SRAM.
The ATSAM3S1 product (64-Kbyte internal Flash version) embeds a total of 16 Kbytes high-
speed SRAM.
The SRAM is accessible over System Cortex-M3 bus at address 0x2000 0000.
The SRAM is in the bit band region. The bit band alias region is mapped from 0x2200 0000 to
0x23FF FFFF.
9.1.2 Internal ROM
The SAM3S product embeds an Internal ROM, which contains the SAM Boot Assistant (SAM-
BA), In Application Programming routines (IAP) and Fast Flash Programming Interface (FFPI).
At any time, the ROM is mapped at address 0x0080 0000.
9.1.3 Embedded Flash
9.1.3.1 Flash Overview
The Flash of the ATSAM3S4 (256-Kbytes internal Flash version) is organized in one bank of
1024 pages (Single plane) of 256 bytes.
The Flash of the ATSAM3S2 (128-Kbytes internal Flash version) is organized in one bank of 512
pages (Single plane) of 256 bytes.
The Flash of the ATSAM3S1 (64-Kbytes internal Flash version) is organized in one bank of 256
pages (Single plane) of 256 bytes.
The Flash contains a 128-byte write buffer, accessible through a 32-bit interface.
9.1.3.2 Flash Power Supply
The Flash is supplied by VDDCORE.
9.1.3.3 Enhanced Embedded Flash Controller
The Enhanced Embedded Flash Controller (EEFC) manages accesses performed by the mas-
ters of the system. It enables reading the Flash and writing the write buffer. It also contains a
User Interface, mapped on the APB.
The Enhanced Embedded Flash Controller ensures the interface of the Flash block with the 32-
bit internal bus. Its 128-bit wide memory interface increases performance.
The user can choose between high performance or lower current consumption by selecting
either 128-bit or 64-bit access. It also manages the programming, erasing, locking and unlocking
sequences of the Flash using a full set of commands.
32
6500DS–ATARM–29-Feb-12
SAM3S Summary
One of the commands returns the embedded Flash descriptor definition that informs the system
about the Flash organization, thus making the software generic.
9.1.3.4 Flash Speed
The user needs to set the number of wait states depending on the frequency used.
For more details, refer to the AC Characteristics sub section in the product Electrical Character-
istics Section.
9.1.3.5 Lock Regions
Several lock bits used to protect write and erase operations on lock regions. A lock region is
composed of several consecutive pages, and each lock region has its associated lock bit.
If a locked-region’s erase or program command occurs, the command is aborted and the EEFC
triggers an interrupt.
The lock bits are software programmable through the EEFC User Interface. The command “Set
Lock Bit” enables the protection. The command “Clear Lock Bit” unlocks the lock region.
Asserting the ERASE pin clears the lock bits, thus unlocking the entire Flash.
9.1.3.6 Security Bit Feature
The SAM3S features a security bit, based on a specific General Purpose NVM bit (GPNVM bit
0). When the security is enabled, any access to the Flash, SRAM, Core Registers and Internal
Peripherals either through the ICE interface or through the Fast Flash Programming Interface, is
forbidden. This ensures the confidentiality of the code programmed in the Flash.
This security bit can only be enabled, through the command “Set General Purpose NVM Bit 0” of
the EEFC User Interface. Disabling the security bit can only be achieved by asserting the
ERASE pin at 1, and after a full Flash erase is performed. When the security bit is deactivated,
all accesses to the Flash, SRAM, Core registers, Internal Peripherals are permitted.
It is important to note that the assertion of the ERASE pin should always be longer than 200 ms.
As the ERASE pin integrates a permanent pull-down, it can be left unconnected during normal
operation. However, it is safer to connect it directly to GND for the final application.
9.1.3.7 Calibration Bits
NVM bits are used to calibrate the brownout detector and the voltage regulator. These bits are
factory configured and cannot be changed by the user. The ERASE pin has no effect on the cal-
ibration bits.
9.1.3.8 Unique Identifier
Each device integrates its own 128-bit unique identifier. These bits are factory configured and
cannot be changed by the user. The ERASE pin has no effect on the unique identifier.
Table 9-1. Number of Lock Bits
Product Number of Lock Bits Lock Region Size
ATSAM3S4 16 16 kbytes (64 pages)
ATSAM3S2 8 16 kbytes (64 pages)
ATSAM3S1 4 16 kbytes (64 pages)

6500DS–ATARM–29-Feb-12
SAM3S Summary
9.1.3.9 Fast Flash Programming Interface
The Fast Flash Programming Interface allows programming the device through a multiplexed
fully-handshaked parallel port. It allows gang programming with market-standard industrial
programmers.
The FFPI supports read, page program, page erase, full erase, lock, unlock and protect
commands.
The Fast Flash Programming Interface is enabled and the Fast Programming Mode is entered
when TST is tied high and PA0 and PA1 are tied low.
9.1.3.10 SAM-BA® Boot
The SAM-BA Boot is a default Boot Program which provides an easy way to program in-situ the
on-chip Flash memory.
The SAM-BA Boot Assistant supports serial communication via the UART and USB.
The SAM-BA Boot provides an interface with SAM-BA Graphic User Interface (GUI).
9.1.3.11 GPNVM Bits
The SAM3S features two GPNVM bits that can be cleared or set respectively through the com-
mands “Clear GPNVM Bit” and “Set GPNVM Bit” of the EEFC User Interface.
9.1.4 Boot Strategies
The system always boots at address 0x0. To ensure maximum boot possibilities, the memory
layout can be changed via GPNVM.
A general-purpose NVM (GPNVM) bit is used to boot either on the ROM (default) or from the
Flash.
The GPNVM bit can be cleared or set respectively through the commands “Clear General-pur-
pose NVM Bit” and “Set General-purpose NVM Bit” of the EEFC User Interface.
Setting GPNVM Bit 1 selects the boot from the Flash, clearing it selects the boot from the ROM.
Asserting ERASE clears the GPNVM Bit 1 and thus selects the boot from the ROM by default.
9.2 External Memories
The SAM3S features an External Bus Interface to provide the interface to a wide range of exter-
nal memories and to any parallel peripheral.
9.2.1 Static Memory Controller
•8-bit Data Bus
Up to 24-bit Address Bus (up to 16 MBytes linear per chip select)

SAM3S Summary
10.1 System Controller and Peripherals Mapping
Please refer to Section 8-1 “SAM3S Product Mapping” on page 30.
All the peripherals are in the bit band region and are mapped in the bit band alias region.
10.2 Power-on-Reset, Brownout and Supply Monitor
The SAM3S embeds three features to monitor, warn and/or reset the chip:
• Power-on-Reset on VDDIO
• Brownout Detector on VDDCORE
• Supply Monitor on VDDIO
10.2.1 Power-on-Reset
The Power-on-Reset monitors VDDIO. It is always activated and monitors voltage at start up but
also during power down. If VDDIO goes below the threshold voltage, the entire chip is reset. For
more information, refer to the Electrical Characteristics section of the datasheet.
10.2.2 Brownout Detector on VDDCORE
The Brownout Detector monitors VDDCORE. It is active by default. It can be deactivated by soft-
ware through the Supply Controller (SUPC_MR). It is especially recommended to disable it
during low-power modes such as wait or sleep modes.
If VDDCORE goes below the threshold voltage, the reset of the core is asserted. For more infor-
mation, refer to the Supply Controller (SUPC) and Electrical Characteristics sections of the
datasheet.
10.2.3 Supply Monitor on VDDIO
The Supply Monitor monitors VDDIO. It is not active by default. It can be activated by software
and is fully programmable with 16 steps for the threshold (between 1.9V to 3.4V). It is controlled
by the Supply Controller (SUPC). A sample mode is possible. It allows to divide the supply mon-
itor power consumption by a factor of up to 2048. For more information, refer to the SUPC and
Electrical Characteristics sections of the datasheet.
10.3 Reset Controller
The Reset Controller is based on a Power-on-Reset cell, and a Supply Monitor on VDDCORE.
The Reset Controller is capable to return to the software the source of the last reset, either a
general reset, a wake-up reset, a software reset, a user reset or a watchdog reset.
The Reset Controller controls the internal resets of the system and the NRST pin input/output. It
is capable to shape a reset signal for the external devices, simplifying to a minimum connection
of a push-button on the NRST pin to implement a manual reset.
The configuration of the Reset Controller is saved as supplied on VDDIO.
10.4 Supply Controller (SUPC)
The Supply Controller controls the power supplies of each section of the processor and the
peripherals (via Voltage regulator control)
The Supply Controller has its own reset circuitry and is clocked by the 32 kHz Slow clock
generator.
37
6500DS–ATARM–29-Feb-12
SAM3S Summary
The reset circuitry is based on a zero-power power-on reset cell and a brownout detector cell.
The zero-power power-on reset allows the Supply Controller to start properly, while the soft-
ware-programmable brownout detector allows detection of either a battery discharge or main
voltage loss.
The Slow Clock generator is based on a 32 kHz crystal oscillator and an embedded 32 kHz RC
oscillator. The Slow Clock defaults to the RC oscillator, but the software can enable the crystal
oscillator and select it as the Slow Clock source.
The Supply Controller starts up the device by sequentially enabling the internal power switches
and the Voltage Regulator, then it generates the proper reset signals to the core power supply.
It also enables to set the system in different low power modes and to wake it up from a wide
range of events.
10.5 Clock Generator
The Clock Generator is made up of:
One Low Power 32768Hz Slow Clock oscillator with bypass mode
One Low-Power RC oscillator
One 3-20 MHz Crystal Oscillator, which can be bypassed
One Fast RC oscillator factory programmed, 3 output frequencies can be selected: 4, 8 or 12
MHz. By default 4 MHz is selected.
One 60 to 130 MHz PLL (PLLB) providing a clock for the USB Full Speed Controller
One 60 to 130 MHz programmable PLL (PLLA), capable to provide the clock MCK to the
processor and to the peripherals. The PLLA input frequency is from 3.5 to 20 MHz.
38
6500DS–ATARM–29-Feb-12
SAM3S Summary
Figure 10-2. Clock Generator Block Diagram
10.6 Power Management Controller
The Power Management Controller provides all the clock signals to the system. It provides:
the Processor Clock, HCLK
the Free running processor clock, FCLK
the Cortex SysTick external clock
the Master Clock, MCK, in particular to the Matrix and the memory interfaces
the USB Clock, UDPCK
independent peripheral clocks, typically at the frequency of MCK
three programmable clock outputs: PCK0, PCK1 and PCK2
The Supply Controller selects between the 32 kHz RC oscillator or the crystal oscillator. The
unused oscillator is disabled automatically so that power consumption is optimized.
By default, at startup the chip runs out of the Master Clock using the fast RC oscillator running at
4 MHz.
The user can trim the 8 and 12 MHz RC Oscillator frequency by software.

The SAM3S 64-pin and 100-pin PIO Controllers control up to 32 lines. (See, Table 10-2.) Each
line can be assigned to one of three peripheral functions: A, B or C. The multiplexing tables in
the following pages define how the I/O lines of the peripherals A, B and C are multiplexed on the
PIO Controllers. The column “Comments” has been inserted in this table for the user’s own com-
ments; it may be used to track how pins are defined in an application.
Note that some peripheral functions which are output only, might be duplicated within the tables.
