Configuration

Please use sparkfun_samd51_micromod ID for board option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File):

[env:sparkfun_samd51_micromod]
platform = atmelsam
board = sparkfun_samd51_micromod

You can override default SparkFun SAMD51 MicroMod settings per build environment using board_*** option, where *** is a JSON object path from board manifest sparkfun_samd51_micromod.json. For example, board_build.mcu, board_build.f_cpu, etc.

[env:sparkfun_samd51_micromod]
platform = atmelsam
board = sparkfun_samd51_micromod

; change microcontroller
board_build.mcu = samd51j20a

; change MCU frequency
board_build.f_cpu = 120000000L

Uploading

SparkFun SAMD51 MicroMod supports the following uploading protocols:

  • atmel-ice

  • jlink

  • sam-ba

Default protocol is sam-ba

You can change upload protocol using upload_protocol option:

[env:sparkfun_samd51_micromod]
platform = atmelsam
board = sparkfun_samd51_micromod

upload_protocol = sam-ba

Debugging

Debugging - “1-click” solution for debugging with a zero configuration.

Warning

You will need to install debug tool drivers depending on your system. Please click on compatible debug tool below for the further instructions and configuration information.

You can switch between debugging Tools & Debug Probes using debug_tool option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File).

SparkFun SAMD51 MicroMod does not have on-board debug probe and IS NOT READY for debugging. You will need to use/buy one of external probe listed below.
