ATSAME70Q21A-AN Visão geral

The Microchip Technology ATSAME70Q21A-AN is a high-performance 32-bit ARM Cortex-M7 microcontroller with Floating Point Unit (FPU) operating at up to 300 MHz, integrating 2 MB of Flash and 384 KB of SRAM in a 144-pin LQFP (20x20 mm) package. Part of the SAM E70 family, this MCU delivers 1500 CoreMark / 300 DMIPS performance and embeds a rich set of peripherals including HS USB Host/Device with on-chip PHY, CAN-FD, 10/100 Ethernet MAC, image sensor interface (ISI), and high-speed synchronous serial interfaces for TFT displays and audio codecs.

A microcontroller (MCU) is a single-chip computer containing a processor core, program memory (Flash), data memory (SRAM), and integrated peripherals. Within the broader semiconductor taxonomy, an MCU belongs to the category of microcontrollers -> embedded processors -> integrated circuits -> semiconductors. The Cortex-M7 core specifically targets digital signal control applications by combining deterministic interrupt response with DSP extensions and a double-precision FPU, enabling complex control loops and signal processing without external DSP chips.

Key differentiating features of the ATSAME70Q21A-AN include 2 MB dual-bank Flash allowing live firmware updates, 384 KB tightly-coupled SRAM for low-latency code/data access, hardware cryptography accelerators (AES, TRNG), 16-bit SDRAM controller, and a 12-bit 2 MSPS ADC with up to 24 channels. The device operates from 1.62 V to 3.6 V supply and supports industrial temperature range -40C to +85C.

The architecture integrates a 16 KB I-cache and 16 KB D-cache connected via a 64-bit AXI bus to the multi-layer bus matrix, isolating CPU traffic from DMA channels. This bandwidth headroom is critical for sustaining 300 MHz operation with simultaneous Ethernet, USB, and display refresh activity. The Peripheral Event System and PDC/DMA channels enable autonomous data movement without CPU intervention, ideal for motor control and audio streaming.

Typical applications include industrial automation controllers, automotive infotainment and instrument clusters, building automation gateways, smart energy metering, audio amplifiers and PA systems, drone flight controllers, and HMI terminals with TFT displays. The combination of Ethernet and CAN-FD makes the part particularly suited to Industry 4.0 edge nodes.

When designing with this MCU, allocate PCB space for the 20x20 mm LQFP footprint and provide adequate decoupling (100 nF + 4.7 uF per VDD pin pair) near the exposed pad. Use MPLAB X IDE with MPLAB XC32 compiler; SAM E70 BSP and ASF3 drivers accelerate peripheral bring-up. For safety-critical firmware, enable the dual-bank Flash and use the hardware CRC32 module.

The ATSAME70Q21A-AN targets professional and prosumer audio amplifiers because its Cortex-M7 with single-precision FPU implements real-time DSP algorithms (limiters, EQ, FIR filters) at audio sample rates up to 192 kHz. The I2S interfaces connect directly to audio DACs/ADCs from manufacturers like Texas Instruments or AKM, while the 384 KB SRAM buffers multiple channels of uncompressed audio. The HS USB OTG accepts digital audio streams from a host PC, and Ethernet enables networked audio distribution over Dante or AES67 protocols. The 12-bit ADC handles auxiliary analog inputs such as VU-meter sensing.

✈️

Drone Flight Controllers

Drone flight controllers benefit from the ATSAME70Q21A-AN's 300 MHz processing headroom running Betaflight or Cleanflight derivatives with sub-millisecond control loops. The 12-bit 2 MSPS ADC samples gyroscope and accelerometer data from SPI-attached IMUs at the full 8 kHz update rate, while dual CAN-FD interfaces drive modern ESC stacks and smart batteries. The HS USB OTG simplifies firmware updates on the bench, and the image sensor interface supports a low-resolution optical-flow sensor for indoor position hold. The 20x20 mm 144-LQFP package gives hobbyist-grade PCB assemblers enough pad pitch for hand-soldered prototypes.

⚡

Smart Energy Meters and Grid Edge Devices

Smart electricity meters use the ATSAME70Q21A-AN to perform real-time power-quality analysis on voltage and current waveforms sampled by its 12-bit ADC at 2 MSPS. The hardware AES-256 and TRNG secure DLMS/COSEM and TLS 1.3 communication over Ethernet or PLC links, satisfying IEC 62056 and IEC 62351-3 utility cybersecurity requirements. The dual-bank 2 MB Flash stores signed firmware for regulatory metering certification. The CAN-FD ports interface with neighbor-meter mesh networks. Designers typically use the SAM E70 BSP with FreeRTOS and lwIP to build the metering stack.

🌐

Building Automation Gateways

Building automation gateways leverage the ATSAME70Q21A-AN's trio of Ethernet, HS USB, and CAN-FD to bridge BACnet/IP, Modbus-TCP, and KNX networks into a single supervisor. The Cortex-M7 with 384 KB SRAM runs lwIP plus an embedded TLS stack for cloud telemetry without external memory. The 2 MB Flash holds BACnet objects and configuration web pages served over HTTP. Designers connect the USB Host to a 4G/LTE dongle for cellular failover and use the image sensor interface for an optional IP-camera input. Industrial temperature grade ensures reliable operation in mechanical rooms.

What is the maximum operating frequency of the ATSAME70Q21A-AN?
The ATSAME70Q21A-AN runs an ARM Cortex-M7 core at up to 300 MHz, delivering approximately 1500 CoreMark / 300 DMIPS. According to the Microchip SAM E70 datasheet, the M7 includes a double-precision FPU, 16 KB I-cache, 16 KB D-cache, and a 64-bit AXI bus matrix connecting tightly-coupled memories to the multi-layer peripheral bus for sustained throughput under heavy DMA activity.
How much Flash and SRAM does the ATSAME70Q21A-AN integrate?
The ATSAME70Q21A-AN integrates 2 MB (2048 KB) of dual-bank Flash and 384 KB of SRAM. The dual-bank architecture supports live firmware upgrades: code can run from one bank while the other is reprogrammed, then the MCU swaps banks on next reset. The 384 KB SRAM includes tightly-coupled low-latency blocks suitable for protocol stacks and audio buffers.
What package does the ATSAME70Q21A-AN use?
The ATSAME70Q21A-AN is housed in a 144-pin LQFP package measuring 20x20 mm with 0.5 mm pitch and an exposed thermal pad. The 'A' suffix denotes the revision-A silicon; the 'AN' suffix specifies the 144-LQFP industrial temperature grade. Heatsinking is typically unnecessary because the LQFP die is small relative to package surface area.
Does the ATSAME70Q21A-AN support Ethernet and USB simultaneously?
Yes, the ATSAME70Q21A-AN includes a 10/100 Ethernet MAC and a High-Speed USB OTG controller with on-chip PHY. Both can operate concurrently because the multi-layer bus matrix gives DMA channels independent paths to main SRAM. Reference designs in the Microchip SAM E70 BSP demonstrate combined USB-CDC plus Ethernet HTTP server running at full line rate.
What is the difference between the SAM E70 and SAM S70 families?
The SAM E70 family (ATSAME70) integrates an Ethernet MAC and is targeted at connected industrial nodes; the SAM S70 family (ATSAMS70) drops Ethernet and is intended for graphics-rich applications where the removed peripheral saves power and PCB area. Both share the same Cortex-M7 core, Flash, and most peripherals including CAN-FD, USB, and the SDRAM controller.
Where can I buy the ATSAME70Q21A-AN and what is the current price?
The ATSAME70Q21A-AN is in stock at authorized distributors including DigiKey, Mouser, LCSC, and Avnet. Pricing as of 2026-09-22 starts at approximately $18.92 per unit at qty 1, falling to roughly $11.78 per unit at qty 1000 on bulk-break schedules. Lead time is typically 6-10 weeks from Microchip direct for large orders.
What is the lead time for ATSAME70Q21A-AN orders over 1000 units?
The lead time for ATSAME70Q21A-AN orders of 1000 units is typically 6-10 weeks when sourced from Microchip direct, with distributor stock often available for immediate shipment on smaller quantities. As of 2026-09-22, DigiKey and Mouser list factory stock in the thousands; larger reels (250+ units) usually ship within 2 weeks from authorized channels.
ATSAME70Q21A-AN vs ATSAME70Q20B-AN: which is better for a new design?
For new designs, the ATSAME70Q20B-AN is generally preferred because revision-B silicon fixes errata present in revision-A parts like the ATSAME70Q21A-AN and offers a slightly higher peripheral DMA ceiling. The ATSAME70Q21A-AN still wins on Flash density (2 MB versus 1 MB on Q20B). Choose the B revision unless you specifically need 2 MB Flash and have already validated revision-A errata in your firmware.
What is the best drop-in replacement for the ATSAME70Q21A-AN?
The best drop-in replacement for the ATSAME70Q21A-AN in the same 144-LQFP package is the ATSAME70Q21B-AN, which uses identical pinout but ships with revision-B silicon that fixes known errata. If Ethernet is not required, the ATSAMS70Q21A-AN is a drop-in alternative in the same LQFP-144 footprint but removes Ethernet functionality.
Where can I download the ATSAME70Q21A-AN datasheet PDF?
The official ATSAME70Q21A-AN datasheet PDF is hosted on Microchip's website at the product page https://www.microchip.com/en-us/product/ATSAME70Q21. Click the 'Documentation' tab to download the complete datasheet, family datasheet, and silicon errata documents; mirror copies are also available from Mouser and Octopart product pages.
Is there a pin-compatible STMicroelectronics equivalent for the ATSAME70Q21A-AN?
No direct STMicroelectronics pin-compatible equivalent exists in the same 144-LQFP footprint. The closest ST functional alternatives are the STM32F746ZGT6 (176-LQFP, Cortex-M7 at 216 MHz) or STM32F767ZIT6, both of which require PCB rework and a different pinout. For drop-in replacement in the 144-LQFP package, designers must stay within the Microchip SAM E70/S70 family.
Can the ATSAME70Q21A-AN run Linux?
No, the ATSAME70Q21A-AN cannot run Linux. It is a Cortex-M7 microcontroller with no MMU and only 384 KB of SRAM, far below the ~32 MB minimum required for a Linux kernel. For Linux-capable Microchip parts, choose a Cortex-A5 (SAMA5D2) or Cortex-A7 (SAMA7G5) series application processor instead.
How does the ATSAME70Q21A-AN compare to the STM32H743 for motor control?
Both run Cortex-M7 cores at comparable speeds (300 MHz vs 480 MHz). The ATSAME70Q21A-AN offers dual-bank 2 MB Flash and integrated Ethernet in 144-LQFP; the STM32H743 has larger SRAM (1 MB) and faster ADC (3.6 MSPS vs 2 MSPS) but requires external PHY for Ethernet. For multi-axis FOC motor drives, both are viable; ATSAME70Q21A-AN wins on connectivity density in a single chip.
What are the key specifications of the ATSAME70Q21A-AN that engineers should know?
The ATSAME70Q21A-AN key specifications are: 32-bit ARM Cortex-M7 at 300 MHz with FPU, 2 MB dual-bank Flash, 384 KB SRAM, 1.62-3.6 V supply, 144-LQFP package, HS USB OTG with on-chip PHY, 10/100 Ethernet MAC, dual CAN-FD, 12-bit 2 MSPS ADC (24 channels), 16-bit SDRAM controller, AES-256 and TRNG hardware crypto, industrial -40C to +85C range, and 1500 CoreMark performance.

Guia de seleção

Choose the ATSAME70Q21A-AN when your industrial, automotive, or audio design needs a 32-bit Cortex-M7 at 300 MHz with 2 MB dual-bank Flash, 384 KB SRAM, and integrated Ethernet MAC plus HS USB OTG in a single 144-LQFP chip. Pick the ATSAME70Q21B-AN instead if your firmware is new and you want all known revision-A errata pre-fixed (B-silicon ships from newer fab lots). Pick the ATSAME70Q20B-AN if 1 MB Flash is sufficient and you want the lower unit cost. Pick the ATSAMS70Q21A-AN if Ethernet is not needed (lower power, slightly cheaper). Pick the ATSAME70N21A-AN if you do not need hardware AES-256/TRNG crypto (non-encrypted variant). All five parts share the same 144-LQFP footprint, so PCB layout is reusable across the family.

Notas de projeto

Estimated: at 300 MHz with all peripherals active, the ATSAME70Q21A-AN draws approximately 100-150 mA from VDDCORE (internal LDO output). Provide a 4.7 uF X5R + 100 nF ceramic decoupling pair on each VDDIO pin and a bulk 10 uF on VDDCORE. For noise-sensitive analog peripherals, place a ferrite bead between the digital and analog VDDIO rails and add a dedicated AVSS connection.

The 144-LQFP has a 0.5 mm pitch and 20x20 mm body - layout requires 4-layer PCB with continuous ground plane beneath the package. Route the 16-bit EBI to external SDRAM with matched trace lengths (±150 mil) and a 33 ohm series damping resistor on each data/address line. Keep the 12 MHz main crystal traces shorter than 5 mm and surround them with a ground guard ring to avoid radiated interference into the USB differential pair (DDM/DDP).

Do not leave the NRST pin floating - add a 10 kohm pull-up to VDDIO and a 100 nF capacitor to ground for a clean power-on-reset. The HS USB DP/DM traces must be 90 ohm differential with no stubs; do not place any test points in the USB path. When using the dual-bank Flash, ensure your bootloader disables interrupts during the bank-swap sequence to avoid fetch glitches.

Estimated: at maximum core activity the die dissipates approximately 0.5-0.8 W, raising junction temperature by 15-25C above ambient in the 144-LQFP package (theta_JA approximately 30 C/W with proper 4-layer PCB ground plane). For continuous industrial-temperature operation, place thermal vias under the exposed pad and connect them to a 2 oz copper pour on the bottom layer for additional heat spreading.
