2. Power-Up
Several power source options are available to power up the SAMA5D3 Xplained board.
The board can be:
• USB-powered through the USB Micro-AB connector (J6 connector - default configuration)
• Powered through an external AC-to-DC adapter connected via a 2.1 mm center-positive plug into the optional power jack of the
board. The recommended output voltage range of the power adapter is 5V at 2A.
• Powered through the Arduino shield
Unlike Arduino Uno boards, the SAMA5D3 Xplained board runs at 3.3V. The maximum voltage that
the I/O pins can tolerate is 3.3V. Providing higher voltages (e.g. 5V) to an I/O pin could damage the
board.
2.1 Power up the Board
Unpack the board, taking care to avoid electrostatic discharge. Simply connect the USB Micro-AB cable to the connector (J6).Then, connect the other end of the cable to a free USB port of your PC.

Figure 4-2: Evaluation Kit Architecture
4.2.1 Processor
The SAMA5D3 Xplained board is built around the SAMA5D36, a Cortex-A5 application processor which combines high-performance computing device with low-power consumption and a wide range of communication peripherals. It features a combination of user interface
functionalities and high data rate IOs, including LCD controller, touchscreen, camera interface, Gigabit and 10/100 Ethernet ports, highspeed USB and SDIO.
The ARM Cortex-A5 supports the latest generation of DDR2 and NAND Flash memory interfaces for program and data storage. An internal
166-MHz multi-layer bus architecture associated with 24 DMA channels and two 64-Kbyte SRAM blocks, sustains the high bandwidth
required by the processor and the high-speed peripherals.
4.2.2 Clock Circuitry
The SAMA5D3 Xplained evaluation board features four clock sources:
• Two clocks are alternatives for the SAMA5D3 series processor main clock
• Two crystal oscillators are used for the GETH and Ethernet MII/RMII chip

4.2.3 Power Supplies
The on-board power supply generation is based on the Active-Semi® Power Management Unit (PMU) featuring a 3-channel (3.3V / 1.8V
/1.2V or 1.0V) topology. For maximum efficiency, these supply channels are generated by three integrated step-down converters.
In addition to these 3 DCDC channels, 4 LDO channels with low noise and high PSRR performance are available for the application. These
channels are disabled at startup by default and can be turned on and adjusted under software control through an I²C link. They are also
used to supply the 2.5V VDDFUSE and the 3.3V VDDANA power inputs of the processor.
The power supply sequencing of the three primary channels is controlled by the PMU itself in full compliance with the SAMAD3 requirements. The turn-on sequence is: 3.3V first, then 1.8V and finally 1.2V.
There is a known error on the ACT8865 I²C implementation. The port must be shut off after configuration or problems may occur with devices using the same I²C channel, e.g., TM43xx LCD display.
Refer to the ACT8865 data sheet at http://www.active-semi.com/ for more details.
This evaluation kit was equipped with an engineering version of ACT8865 PMIC known as
ACT8865QI303-T. The singularity of this engineering version is that OUT4 and OUT5 outputs, normally enabled at power-up, are disabled at power-up. Consequently, VDDANA and VDDFUSE
power inputs of the processor are OFF when the external reset pin (NRST) is released. They must
therefore be turned on by software in the very first execution steps of the application. In particular,
VDDFUSE is needed to switch SAMA5D3 devices in Secure mode.
The engineering version ACT8865QI303-T of the active semi PMIC is end-of-life (EOL) and replaced
by ACT8865QI305-T devices that have OUT4 and OUT5 enabled by default at power-up. Refer to
the following application note:

4.2.3.1 Power Options
Several power options are available to configure the SAMA5D3 Xplained board powering scheme.
The power sources are selected by a set of 0R resistors.
The USB-powered operation is the default configuration. The power source is the USB device port (J6) connected to a PC or a mini-AB
5V DC supply. The USB supply is sufficient to power the board in most applications if USB host ports are not used. If USB host ports are
used, it is recommended to use a DC supply source.
Schematic diagrams of various power options are illustrated in Figure 4-4.
Figure 4-4: Input Powering Scheme Option Schematic
Note: USB-powered operation is a good “single cable” solution because it combines powering and board control through a unique
cable. Consequently, it eliminates the need for other wires and batteries. This power option is suitable for most projects that
only require 5 volts at up to 500 mA.
4.2.3.2 Mains Power Adapter
A mains power supply adapter can be used to provide power to the board. A regulated 5V DC supply of typically 2A is required but a
current range of 3A is recommended if the USB ports and expansion headers are likely to be used. It needs a 2.1 mm plug with a centerhot configuration.
If you are using the USB host ports or expansion board Arduino shields, a higher current is required. To supply the full 500 mA per port,
a mains power adapter must be used.
4.2.3.3 VBAT
By default, VDDBU is delivered through the 3.3V node. An optional SuperCap (C41), used for real-time clock backup, is provided. The
board does not come equipped with the SuperCap. When the SuperCap is not installed, an R185 must be installed. You must make sure
that the R185 is removed prior to installing the SuperCap.

4.2.5 Memory Organization
The SAMA5D3x-series processor features a DDR2/SDRAM memory interface and an External Bus Interface (EBI) to interface with a wide
range of external memories and to almost any kind of parallel peripherals.
The memory devices that equip the SAMA5D3 Xplained evaluation kit are as follows:
• Two DDR2/SDRAM (MT47H64M16HR) used as main system memory (256 MByte). The board includes 2 Gbits of on-board soldered DDR2 (double data rate) SDRAM. The footprints can also host two DDR2 (MT47H128M16RT) from Micron
MBytes of DDR2 memory. The memory bus is 32 bits wide and operates with a frequency of up to 166 MHz (See Figure 4-6).
• One NAND Flash (MT29F2G08ABAEAWP) connected to the processor. The default size is 256 Mbytes. The footprint can also host
a 4-Gbit Micron chip for a total of 512 MBytes of NAND Flash memory (See Figure 4-7).

4.2.6 SD/MMC Interface
The SAMA5D3 Xplained board features two high-speed Multimedia Card Interfaces (MCI).
• The first interface is used as an 8-bit interface (MCI0), connected to a SD/MMC card slot (J10) located on the bottom side of the
PCB.
• The second interface is used as a 4-bit interface (MCI1), connected to an optional Micro-SD card connector (J11) located on the top
side of the PCB.
The MCI0 SD card power line is enabled by default. It is PIO-controlled through a MOSFET transistor.
Note: The power source is VCC (3.3 volts).
4.2.6.1 J10 SD Card Slot
When a card is inserted into the SD/MMC connector, the Card Detect pin (PE0) is tied to ground.

4.2.9 10/100/100 Ethernet Port
The SAMA5D3 Xplained board features a MICREL PHY device (KSZ9031RN) operating at 10/100/1000 Mb/s. The board supports the
RGMII Interface mode. The Ethernet interface consists of four pairs of low-voltage differential pair signals designated from GRX± and
GTX± plus Control signals for link activity indicators. These signals are routed to the 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ45 connector (J12).
For monitoring and control purposes, LEDs are integrated in the RJ45 connectors to indicate activity, link, and speed status information
for the corresponding ports.
For more information about the Ethernet controller device, refer to the MICREL KSZ9031RN data sheet.

4.2.10 Ethernet 10/100 Port
The SAMA5D3 Xplained board features a MICREL PHY device (KSZ8081RNB) operating at 10/100 Mb/s. The board supports RMII interface modes. The Ethernet interface consists of two pairs of low-voltage differential pair signals designated from GRX± and GTX± plus
Control signals for link activity indicators. These signals are routed to the 10/100BASE-T RJ45 connector (J13).
For monitoring and control purposes, an LED functionality is added on the RJ45 connectors to indicate activity, link, and speed status
information for the corresponding ports.
For more information about the Ethernet controller device, refer to the MICREL KSZ8081RNB controller manufacturer's data sheet.

The SAMA5D3 Xplained board has a dedicated serial port for debugging, which is accessible through the 6-pin male header J23. Various
interfaces can be used as USB/Serial DBGU port bridge, such as FTDI TTL-232R-3V3 USB to TTL serial cable or basic breakout board
for the 232/USB converter.
These interfaces are available on the following websites:
• Adafruit: http://www.adafruit.com/products/284

DEBUG
P101-1*06SGF-116A-NX
R171 and R172 are optional (not implemented) resistors that can be used for power selection. Power can be delivered either by the
SAMA5D3 Xplained board or by the debug interface tool. To avoid a contention between your debug interface (e.g. FTDI) and the onboard power system, be careful during the installation of one of these resistors.
4.2.16 Expansion Ports
Five 8-pin, one 10-pin, one 6-pin and one 2x18-pin headers (J14 to J21) are implemented on the board to enable the PIO connection of
various expansion cards that could be developed by users or by other sources. Due to multiplexing, different signals can be provided on
each pin. These connectors are mechanically- and footprint- compatible with the Arduino R3 shields. As the SAMA5D3 signals have a
voltage level of 3.3V, 5-V level shields must not be used on the SAMA5D3 Xplained.
In addition to its standard IO functionality, the SAMA5D3 processor can provide alternate functions to external IO lines available on the
J14 to J21 headers.
These alternate functions are:
• UARTs: UART0, UART1
• USARTs: USART0, USART1, USART2, USART3
• SPI: SPI1
