MPLAB Harmony v3 provides access to highly-simplified peripheral libraries and device drivers that remove much of the development work from configuring your 32-bit MCU or MPU. It includes the MPLAB Harmony Configurator (MHC) tool, an easy-to-use tool with a GUI that simplifies device setup, library selection, configuration and application development.

The Operating System Abstraction

These software packages deliver a set of C drivers that run on the evaluation kits and exercise all peripherals. They are also very useful for board bring up as well as quick prototyping. They consist of drivers, software services and libraries.

Each software module for a Microchip MPU includes full source code, application examples, rich HTML documentation and ready-to-use projects for

The High-Performance WVGA LCD Display Module with maXTouch® Technology (AC320005-5) is designed for evaluating the Microchip's graphics display solution and graphics library for 32-bit microcontrollers and microprocessors. This board is compatible with both versions of the Multimedia Expansion Board II (DM320005-2 or DM320005-5), as well as with Xplained Pro and Xplained Ultra evaluation

The ATSAMA5D27-SOM1-EK1 is a fast prototyping and evaluation platform for the SAMA5D2 based System in Packages (SiPs) and the SAMA5D27-SOM1 (SAMA5D27 System On Module). The kit comprises a baseboard with a soldered ATSAMA5D27-SOM1 module. The module features an ATSAMA5D27C-D1G-CU SIP embedding a 1-Gbit (128 MB) DDR2 DRAM.  The SOM integrates a Power Management IC (PMIC), a QSPI memory, a

The SAMA5D2 Xplained Ultra is a fast prototyping and evaluation platform for the SAMA5D2 series of microprocessors (MPUs). The board includes eMMC and DDR3 memories as well as a rich set of connectivity options. Connectors and expansion headers allows for easy customization and quick access to leading edge embedded features such as the Class D amplifier or the capacitive touch controller (PTC). A...
