2.2 Design Documentation and Relevant Links

The following list contains links to the most relevant documents and software for the Signal and Noise Generator.

  • Xplained products – Xplained evaluation kits are a series of easy-to-use evaluation kits for microcontrollers and other products. For low pin-count devices, the Xplained Nano series provides a minimalistic solution with access to all I/O pins of the target microcontroller. Xplained Mini kits are for medium pin-count devices and adds Arduino Uno compatible header footprint and a prototyping area. Xplained Pro kits are for medium to high pin-count devices, and feature advanced debugging and standardized extensions for peripheral functions. All these kits have on board programmers/debuggers which creates a set of low-cost boards for evaluation and demonstration of features and capabilities of different products.
  • Atmel Studio – Atmel Studio presents Free Atmel IDE for development of C/C++ and assembler code for microcontrollers and relevant documentation.
  • Microchip sample store – Microchip sample store where you can order samples of devices.
  • EDBG User Guide – User guide with more information about the on-board Embedded Debugger.
  • IAR Embedded Workbench ® for ARM ® – This is a commercial C/C++ compiler available for ARM®. On their website there is also a 30-day evaluation version, available as a code-size limited kick-start version. The code-size limit is 16 KB for devices with M0, M0+, and M1 cores and 32 KB for devices with other cores.
  • Data Visualizer – Data Visualizer is a program used for processing and visualizing data. Data Visualizer can receive data from various sources such as the Embedded Debugger Data Gateway Interface found on Xplained Pro boards and COM ports.
