Introduction
The TA100 8-Pin SOIC mikroBUS™-compatible socket board was developed for use with any of Microchip’s microcontroller boards that support a MikroElektronika mikroBUS interface. The board’s dimensions match the medium-sized add-on board as defined in the mikroBUS specification. Through use of an adapter board, the socket board can also be used with Microchip microcontroller development boards that support an Xplained Pro Interface.
The TA100 secure elements are one-time-programmable devices. Having a socket board allows for a customer to reuse the board with multiple TA100 sample devices for a given application or for multiple different applications. The 8-Pin SOIC socket board is capable of being used with both the I2C and SPI interface versions of the TA100 device.
