1. Introduction
1.1. Features
• SAM L22 Xplained Pro support
• Smart Card read/write capability using serial-com from XPRO Expansion headers
• ISO-7816 Smart card interface
• EMV Level 1, Class B (3.3V operation)
1.2. Kit Overview
The main purpose of this kit is to provide a complete demonstration of the smart card application. The
extension kit will be used along with the SAM L22 Xplained Pro kit using a ISO7816 module on the SAM
L22 chip. It has ID chip to store the board details to identify the extension board when seen from Atmel
Studio.

2. Getting Started
2.1. Three Steps to Start Exploring the Atmel Xplained Pro Platform
1. Download and install Atmel Studio.
2. Launch Atmel Studio.
3. Connect the SMARTCARD Xplained Pro to the Xplained Pro MCU board and connect a USB cable
to the DEBUG USB port on the Xplained Pro MCU board.
2.2. Connecting the SMARTCARD Xplained Pro to the Xplained Pro MCU Board
SMARTCARD Xplained Pro is designed to be connected to the Xplained Pro header marked EXT3. It is
compatible with EXT2 as well. Refer to the pin-out of your Xplained Pro evaluation kit to find out which
Xplained Pro EXT headers that can be used.
Once the Xplained Pro MCU board is powered, the green power LED will be lit and Atmel Studio will autodetect which Xplained Pro MCU and extension board(s) are connected. Atmel Studio will present relevant
information like datasheets and kit documentation. The kit landing page in Atmel Studio also have the
option to launch Atmel Software Framework (ASF) example applications for the kit. The target device is
programmed and debugged by the on-board Embedded Debugger. No external programmer or debugger
tool is needed.
