sa. ATSAMV71 Xplained Ultra and SAMV71Q21B SUPPORT
PC USB Projects website is committed to sharing knowledge about Microchip microcontrollers programming. Microchip has recently acquired Atmel and it added its microcontrollers support to Microchip MPLAB X IDE 5.x and Microchip Harmony 3 Programming framework. While Atmel Studio 7 may still be used, the unified MPLAB X IDE offers a larger set of examples and programming methods, a variety of third party operating systems and offers an easy way for migrating PIC applications to ARM-based SAM microcontrollers and migration of Atmel Studio application to Microchip MPLAB X IDE.
ATSAMV71 Xplained Ultra development kit sample project adds SAMV71Q21B microcontroller support to PC USB Projects website. The example demonstrates an easy way to access the microcontroller’s and the development board’s key features from a Microsoft Visual Basic 2015.NET (or newer) application without the need to develop own firmware. It resembles the look and feel of PIC18 and PIC32 demos on the website.
SAMV71Q21 DEMO PACKAGE V1.0.0.zip includes a universal firmware (ATSAMV71 Xplained Ultra Firmware V1.0.0.hex), Microsoft Windows .NET4 program library (SAMV71Q21B.NET4.dll) and a Microsoft Visual Basic 2015.NET sample application (SAMV71Q21 TestApp MS VB2015.NET4.zip). The application enables direct access to SAMV71Q21B RAM and peripheral registers and presets the board to enable easy testing of the microcontroller AEFC (A/D converter including the microcontroller chip temperature sensor) and DACC (D/A converter) peripherals, board micro switches and LEDs.
How to use?
Use ATSAMV71 Xplained Ultra embedded programmer to program ATSAMV71 Xplained Ultra Firmware V1.0.0.hex firmware to the microcontroller.
Expand SAMV71Q21 TestApp MS VB2015.NET4.zip file to a desired folder and double-click *.sln file, or run *.exe from bin folder…
