Xplained Pro Kits
The Atmel® Xplained Pro boards offer everything you need to start designing new microcontroller-based applications in minutes.
- Easy to connect - Xplained Pro boards connect through an embedded debugger with a USB cable to a PC for programming and development.
- Easy to develop with - The boards are automatically recognized by the Atmel Studio 6 integrated development platform (IDP), so you get direct access to example projects and documentation. The Atmel Software Framework (ASF), Atmel Gallery showcase, and Atmel Spaces collaborative project environment make Studio 6 a unified way to develop, share and debug your code.
- Easy to extend - Hardware extension boards called XPRO wings provide easy access to all functions of the MCU. The Atmel Software Framework provides a large set of software drivers and components.
Xplained Pro kits are available as:
- Evaluation kits - Low-cost kits start at $39 for evaluating MCUs and developing with example projects in the Atmel Studio IDP.
- Starter kits - Low-cost bundle of evaluation kits and extension boards, starting at $99, for rapid application prototyping and development with Atmel Studio and Atmel Software Framework.
- Extension kits - Add-on boards called XPRO wings with additional functionality, connecting to Xplained Pro kits through standardized connectors.
