2. Getting Started

2.1 Xplained Pro Quick Start

Steps to start exploring the Xplained Pro platform:
1. Download Atmel Studio.
2. Launch Atmel Studio.
3. Connect ATBTLC1000ZR Xplained Pro extension board with an Xplained Pro MCU board and connect a USB cable to the DEBUG USB port on the Xplained Pro MCU board.
When the Xplained Pro MCU kit is connected to the computer for the first time, the operating system installs the software driver. The driver file supports 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Microsoft® Windows® XP, Windows Vista®, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, and Windows Server 2012.
When the Xplained Pro MCU board is powered, the power LED (green color) glows and Atmel Studio automatically detects the specific Xplained Pro MCU and extension board(s) that are connected. The kit landing page in Atmel Studio comes with an option to launch the Advanced Software Framework (ASF) and Atmel START, example application codes for the kit. The target device is programmed and debugged by the on-board Embedded Debugger and therefore no external programmer or debugger tool is required.

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.

4.1 Xplained Pro Standard Extension Header

All Xplained Pro kits have one or more dual row, 20-pin, 100-mil extension header. The Xplained Pro MCU boards have male headers, while the Xplained Pro extensions have their female counterparts. All connected pins follow the defined pin description in the table.
Info:  All pins are not always connected on all extension headers.
ATBTLC1000ZR-XPRO
The extension headers can be used to connect a variety of Xplained Pro extensions to Xplained Pro MCU boards or to access the pins of the target microcontroller on Xplained Pro MCU boards directly.
