SAM4L Ultra-low power Microcontrollers by Atmel

Semiconductor Vendor with ARM Processor RTL license from ARM

Product Description

The Atmel® SAM4L microcontrollers redefine the power benchmark for Cortex™-M4 processor-based devices, delivering the lowest power in active mode (down to 90µA/MHz) as well as sleep mode with full RAM retention (1.5µA) with the shortest wake-up time (down to 1.5µs). Embedding Atmel picoPower® technology, the SAM4L family provides highly efficient signal processing, ease of use and high-speed communication peripherals—ideal for power-sensitive designs in the industrial, healthcare and consumer application areas.

Atmel picoPower Technology

Ensures that devices are developed from the ground up for the lowest power consumption possible, enabling long battery life. Click here to see the video on picoPower on the SAM4L.

Atmel QTouch Capacitive Touch Support

Includes hardware integrated capacitive touch module based on QTouch® technology for fast development of touch and proximity functionality with ultra low power consumption.

Highly Efficient Signal Processing

Thanks to the Cortex-M4 architecture, the SAM4L microcontrollers feature extended single-cycle multiply-accumulate instructions, optimized SIMD arithmetic and saturating arithmetic instructions for highly efficient signal processing.

Ease of Use

Backed by an ecosystem of design tools, the SAM4L series is easy to use, facilitating faster time to market. Design with the Atmel Studio 6 integrated development environment (IDE), which includes more than 1,500 project examples with source code, simulation tools and a powerful editor.
