SAML MCU Family Reference
Last modified by Microchip on 2023/11/10 11:08
This page connects you with all the information you need to evaluate and design with Microchip's 32-bit SAML family of microcontrollers.
Family Overview
SAML10 | The SAML10 microcontroller family has ultra-low power with a 12-bit ADC, analog comparators, a Peripheral Touch Controller (PTC), a true random number generator, and tamper detection. SAML10 runs at 32 MHz, consumes under 25 µA/MHz in active mode and 100 nA in sleep mode and features op-amps and a 10-bit DAC. - Arm® Cortex® M23 core @ 32 MHz - Low power |
SAML11 | The SAML11 family builds on the SAML10 with extra security features: crypto engine (AES-128, SHA-256, and GCM), Arm TrustZone®, secure boot, an additional Memory Protection Unit, data scrambling in Data Flash. - Arm® Cortex® M23 core @ 32 MHz - Low power - Security |
SAML21 | SAML21 is an ultra-low power family with a 12-bit ADC, analog comparators, Peripheral Touch Controller (PTC), and security functions (AES and true random number generator). It runs at 48 MHz, consumes under 35 µA/MHz in active mode and 200 nA in sleep mode, and features op-amps, full-speed USB Host and Device, and a 12-bit DAC. - Arm® Cortex® M0+ core @ 48 MHz - Low power and USB |
SAML22 | SAML22 is similar to the SAML21 but runs at 32 MHz, comes with a segmented LCD controller (up to 320 segments), full speed USB Device, and has 100-pin options. - Arm® Cortex® M0+ core @ 32 MHz - Low power and USB - Segmented LCD controller |
