SAM9X7 Series Microprocessor Collaterals and Solutions
Last modified by Microchip on 2025/08/13 16:52
The SAM9X7 series of microprocessors are high-performance and cost-optimized Arm926EJ-S™ CPU-based embedded microprocessors (MPUs), running up to 800 MHz. The devices integrate powerful peripherals for connectivity and user interface applications. Advanced security functions are offered, such as tamper detection, secure boot, secure key storage, True Random Number Generator (TRNG), Physically Unclonable Function (PUF) as well as high-performance crypto accelerators for Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA). Microchip MPUs are supported by a wide range of software and development tools, including Linux®, bare metal, MPLAB® Harmony, third-party tools, and software.
To reduce the learning curve and help in developing applications on SAM9X7 series MPUs, a wide range of supporting collateral is available, including training modules, application notes, technical briefs, demos, reference guides, and videos. This document provides references to such technical material.
