4 Xplained Pro
Xplained Pro is an evaluation platform which contains a series of microcontroller boards (evaluation kits) and extension boards. Atmel Studio is used to program and debug the microcontrollers on these boards. Atmel Studio includes ASF and Atmel START, which has drivers and demo code, and Data Visualizer, which supports data streaming and advanced debugging. Xplained Pro evaluation kits can be connected to a wide range of Xplained Pro extension boards through standardized headers and connectors. Xplained Pro extension boards have identification (ID) chips to uniquely identify which boards are connected to the Xplained Pro evaluation kits.
