Overview
********

The SAM R21 Xplained Pro is a compact evaluation board by Atmel featuring a
SAMR21G18A SoC. The SoC includes a SAMR21 ARM Cortex-M0+ micro-controller
bundled with Atmel's AT86RF233, a 2.4GHz IEEE802.15.4 compatible radio.
The kit includes Atmel’s Embedded Debugger (EDBG), which provides a full
debug interface without the need for additional hardware.

Hardware
********

- SAMR21G18A ARM Cortex-M0+ processor at 48 MHz
- 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator
- 256 KiB flash memory and 32 KiB of RAM
- One yellow user LED
- One mechanical user push button
- One reset button
- On-board USB based EDBG unit with serial console

Supported Features
==================

.. zephyr:board-supported-hw::

Pin Mapping
===========

The SAM R21 Xplained Pro evaluation kit has 3 GPIO controllers. These
controllers are responsible for pin muxing, input/output, pull-up, etc.

For more details please refer to `SAM R21 Family Datasheet`_ and the `SAM R21
Xplained Pro Schematic`_.

Default Zephyr Peripheral Mapping:
----------------------------------
- SERCOM0 USART TX : PA5
- SERCOM0 USART RX : PA4
- SERCOM1 I2C SDA  : PA16
- SERCOM1 I2C SCL  : PA17
- SERCOM5 SPI MISO : PB02
- SERCOM5 SPI MOSI : PB22
- SERCOM5 SPI SCK  : PB23
- GPIO SPI CS      : PB03
- GPIO/PWM LED0    : PA19

System Clock
============

The SAMR21 MCU is configured to use the 32.768 kHz external oscillator
with the on-chip PLL generating the 48 MHz system clock.

Serial Port
===========

The SAMR21 MCU has six SERCOM based USARTs with two configured as USARTs in
this BSP. SERCOM0 is the default Zephyr console.

- SERCOM0 115200 8n1 connected to the onboard Atmel Embedded Debugger (EDBG)

PWM
===

The SAMR21 MCU has 3 TCC based PWM units with up to 4 outputs each and a
period of 24 bits or 16 bits.  If :code:`CONFIG_PWM_SAM0_TCC` is enabled then
LED0 is driven by TCC0 instead of by GPIO.

SPI Port
========

The SAMR21 MCU has 6 SERCOM based SPIs.

- SERCOM5 is exposed via Xplained Pro Standard Extension Header

I2C Port
========

When connecting an I2C device and a logic analyzer to an I2C port at the same
time, the internal pull-up resistors are not sufficient for stable bus
operation. You probably have to connect external pull-ups to both bus lines. 10K
is a good value to start with.

- SERCOM1 is exposed via Xplained Pro Standard Extension Header

Radio
=====

The SAMR21 SoC includes an on-chip AT86RF233 radio. It is internally
connected via SPI and some GPIO pins and behaves the same way as
externally connected SPI devices.

Zephyr provide several samples that can use this technology. You can check
:zephyr:code-sample:`wpan-serial` example as starting points.
Another good test can be done with IPv6 by using the server/client
echo demo. More information at :zephyr:code-sample:`sockets-echo-server` and
:zephyr:code-sample:`sockets-echo-client`.

Programming and Debugging
*************************

.. zephyr:board-supported-runners::

The SAM R21 Xplained Pro comes with a Atmel Embedded Debugger (EDBG).  This
provides a debug interface to the SAMR21 chip and is supported by
OpenOCD.

Flashing
========

#. Build the Zephyr kernel and the :zephyr:code-sample:`hello_world` sample application:

   .. zephyr-app-commands::
      :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
      :board: samr21_xpro
      :goals: build
      :compact:

#. Connect the SAM R21 Xplained Pro to your host computer using the USB debug
   port.

#. Run your favorite terminal program to listen for output. Under Linux the
   terminal should be :code:`/dev/ttyACM0`. For example:

   .. code-block:: console

      $ minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0 -o

   The -o option tells minicom not to send the modem initialization
   string. Connection should be configured as follows:

   - Speed: 115200
   - Data: 8 bits
   - Parity: None
   - Stop bits: 1

#. To flash an image:

   .. zephyr-app-commands::
      :zephyr-app: samples/hello_world
      :board: samr21_xpro
      :goals: flash
      :compact:

   You should see "Hello World! samr21_xpro" in your terminal.
