Microchip Technology, Inc. ATSAM3N00A

Microchip's SAM3N00A is a member of the SAM3N series of microcontrollers based on the high-performance 32-bit ARM® Cortex®-M3 RISC processor.

It operates at a maximum speed of 48MHz and features 16KB of flash memory and 4KB of SRAM. The peripheral set includes a USART, two UARTs, two SPIs, two TWIs (I²C), PWM timer, six 16-bit timers, RTC, and a 10-bit ADC.

The SAM3N00A is ready for capacitive touch thanks to the Microchip QTouch library, offering an easy way to implement buttons, sliders, and wheels.

It operates from 1.62V to 3.6V and is available in 48-pin LQFP and QFN packages.
