3.1 Hardware Design Resources

As the SAMA7G5 Series System-in-Package (SiP) MPU embeds a DDR SDRAM memory chip, most of the design complexity related to high-speed DDR interface routing is avoided when using the SAMA7G54 System-On-Module.

For carrier board design, Microchip provides complete SAMA7G54 System-On-Module schematics and PCB design files in Altium format (on request and under license agreement), enabling electrical simulations for high-speed interfaces such as MIPI and USB, as well as mechanical evaluation/simulation. For signal integrity simulation, Microchip provides IBIS models of the SAMA7G5 Series SiP device.
