Atmel Launches $499 Development Kit for Multimedia, POS, SoHo, and Navigation Systems

San Jose, California (ots/PRNewswire)

- Includes AVR32-based Single-board Computer With Linux, GCC, IAR
Workbench
Atmel(R) Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML) today announced a $499
"program-and-go" development kit for multimedia, point-of-sale (POS),
navigation, small office/home office (SoHo) network gateway/router,
and printer applications. Based on Atmel's AVR(R)32-based AP7000
family of 32-bit digital signal controllers (DSCs), Atmel's
STK(R)1000 includes all the hardware and software needed to develop
fully functional, ready-to-ship applications, including the
schematics for printed circuit board production.
The STK1000 includes a production-ready AVR32-based single-board
computer with Atmel's AT32AP7000 system-on-chip (SoC), a 3.5-inch
(320x240) TFT-LCD display, audio DAC, and connectors for VGA,
Ethernet USB, CompactFlash(R) and SD cards. All other system
functionality is integrated in the AT32AP7000 controller which
includes a vector multiplication co-processor, 16-bit stereo audio
DAC, 2048x2048 pixel TFT/STN LCD controller, 480 Mbps USB 2.0 with
on-chip transceivers (PHY) and, two 10/100 Ethernet MACs. Serial
interfaces include RS232, USART, I2S, AC97, TWI/I2C, SPI, PS/2 and
several synchronous serial modules (SSC) supporting most serial
communication protocols, making it ideal for multimedia, POS,
navigation and printer applications.
STK1000 software includes the Linux(R) operating system, GCC
compiler, GNU debugger, all drivers, utilities, editors and image
viewers, and IAR Embedded Workbench(R) for AVR32. Atmel's existing
JTAGICE mkII (available separately) provides emulation.
Application-ready C/C++ application software includes web, FTP, and
Telnet servers, as well as libraries and utilities for playing video,
sound and displaying images.
The AVR32-based AT32AP7000 offers up to three times the per-cycle
throughput of any competing 32-bit processor on the market.
AT32AP7000 memory and DMA include 32 KB on-chip SRAM, 16 KB
instruction and data caches, memory management unit, DMA for
high-speed peripherals and Atmel's Peripheral DMA Controller (PDC).
High-bandwidth data transfers, such as those required for video,
networking, and encryption, are becoming increasingly common and can
monopolize the resources of even a high-end processor. Atmel's PDC
enhances performance by managing data transfers between peripherals,
co-processors and memories independently of the CPU.
The STK1000 development kit is available now for $499. The JTAGICE
mkII emulator is sold separately for $299.
