EMBEST ARM Core Board Based on SAM9G35 Microcontroller

The EMBEST MBC-SAM9G35 is a powerful ARM embedded core board centred on the high-performance AT91SAM9G35 microcontroller from Atmel. Featuring an ARM926EJ-S processor core operating at 400MHz, this board is engineered to support robust operating systems including WinCE and Linux, making it a versatile foundation for complex embedded applications.

It is equipped with an advanced graphics LCD controller capable of handling four-layer overlays, enabling sophisticated features such as picture-in-picture, alpha blending, scaling, rotation, and colour conversion. For user interface integration, it includes a 10-bit ADC supporting 4 or 5-wire resistive touch screen panels.

Connectivity is a key strength, with a comprehensive suite of communication interfaces: a soft modem for Conexant SmartDAA line drivers, USB host and device ports with on-chip transceivers, a 10/100 Ethernet MAC, two high-speed SDCard/SDIO/MMC interfaces, and multiple USARTs, SPIs, I2S, and TWI channels.

The board’s architecture includes 16KB of data cache and 16KB of instruction cache, a memory management unit, 64KB of internal ROM with bootstrap routines, and 32KB of internal SRAM for high-speed operations. Flexible boot options from NAND flash, SDCard, or data flash, alongside power management features like a shutdown controller with battery backup registers, ensure reliability and efficiency in demanding environments.

With its compact form factor and industrial-grade design, the MBC-SAM9G35 is an ideal development platform for professionals creating next-generation electronic systems.
