Features and Benefits

From our one-stop shopping family of AT91SAM ARM-based or Atmel® AVR® microcontrollers to the world's most sophisticated touchscreen technology, Atmel shows you new possibilities for video solutions. We multiply your design options and enhance connectivity while driving down size, complexity, and power consumption.

  • Connect USB and RF4CE peripherals with the industry's most robust touch sensor technology, the Atmel maXTouch™
  • Take advantage of a wide range of AT91SAM ARM-based microcontrollers from the Cortex®-M3-based Atmel AT91SAM3 family to the high-end Atmel ARM926-based AT91SAM9 family, as well as the Atmel AVR UC3 32-bit microcontroller family
  • High-performance embedded video decoder and 2D accelerator reduces overall system costs, while supporting the ability to easily add advanced functionality to system designs
  • Embedded TFT LCD controllers
  • AT91SAM9M10/M11 is an ARM926-based embedded MPU with embedded video decoder that plays pictures and videos in multiple formats and resolutions

With our Atmel QTouch® library, you can add capacitive touch buttons, sliders and wheels at zero additional cost on wireless AVR or Atmel XMEGA™. The Atmel ATmega128RFA1 is the industry's first wireless and touch single-chip microcontroller. The embedded radio interface offers a unique hardware feature set to boost the overall system performance and support a great variety of IEEE 802.15.4 compliant applications, such as the Atmel RF4Control software stack (the Atmel ZigBee RF4CE compliant platform). The combination of low-power and single-chip design enables designers to implement a new generation of wireless link systems, smaller board space, and a lower overall system bill of materials (BOM). This makes the ATmega128RFA1 the most efficient wireless and touch interface microcontroller in the market.

Digital Picture Frame

Top

When using the Atmel AVR microcontrollers, you can build a complete Digital Picture Frame based on a single-chip with embedded color LCD interface controller and the ability to add advanced capacitive touch interfaces and wireless with Atmel low-power IEEE 802.15.4-compliant transceivers. Our latest Atmel AT91SAM9 product with embedded LCD controller and software framework enables designers to implement a new generation of GUI systems, smaller board space, and lower system bill of material (BOM) for LCD control, remote control, and touch panel control. Atmel also provides an ARM926-based embedded MPU and embedded video decoder to play picture and videos in multiple formats and resolutions. And Atmel AVR picoPower® technology dramatically increases application energy efficiency.
