5. Power Considerations
5.1 Power Supplies
The AT91SAM9R64/RL64 has several types of power supply pins:
VDDCORE pins: Power the core, including the processor, the embedded memories and the
peripherals; voltage ranges from 1.08V and 1.32V, 1.2V nominal.
VDDIOM pins: Power the External Bus Interface; voltage ranges between 1.65V and 1.95V
(1.8V nominal) or between 3.0V and 3.6V (3.3V nominal).
VDDIOP pins: Power the Peripherals I/O lines; voltage ranges from 3.0V and 3.6V, 3.3V
nominal.
VDDBU pin: Powers the Slow Clock oscillator and a part of the System Controller; voltage
ranges from 1.08V and 1.32V, 1.2V nominal.
VDDPLLA pin: Powers the PLL cell; voltage ranges from 3.0V and 3.6V, 3.3V nominal.
VDDPLLB pin: Powers the UTMI PLL (480MHz) and OSC 12M cells; voltage ranges from
1.08V and 1.32V, 1.2V nominal.
VDDUTMII pin: Powers the UTMI+ interface; voltage ranges from 3.0V and 3.6V, 3.3V
nominal.
VDDUTMIC pin: Powers the UTMI+ core; voltage ranges from 1.08V and 1.32V, 1.2V
nominal.
VDDANA pin: Powers the ADC cell; voltage ranges from 3.0V and 3.6V, 3.3V nominal.
The power supplies VDDIOM and VDDIOP are identified in the pinout table and the PIO multi-
plexing tables. These supplies enable the user to power the device differently for interfacing with
memories and for interfacing with peripherals.
Ground pins GND are common to VDDCORE, VDDIOM and VDDIOP pins power supplies.
Separated ground pins are provided for VDDBU, VDDPLLA, VDDPLLB and VDDANA. These
ground pins are respectively GNDBU, GNDPLLA, GNDPLLB and GNDANA. A common ground
pin is provided for VDDUTMII and VDDUTMIC. This ground pin is GNDUTMI.
Caution: VDDCORE and VDDIO constraints at startup to be checked in the Core Power Supply
POR Characteristics in the Electical Characteristics section of the datasheet.
5.1.1 USB Power Supply Considerations
To achieve the best performances on the UDPHS, care must be taken in the power supplies
choice and especially on VDDPLLB,VDDUTMIC and VDDUTMII.
The USB High speed requires power supplies with a ripple voltage < 20 mV on VDDPLLB and
VDDUTMIC. The VDDUTMII powering the UTMI transceiver must also be filtered.
It is highly recommended to use an LDO linear regulator to generate the 1.2 volts for both
VDDPLLB and VDDUTMIC. VDDUTMII can be connected on the 3.3 volts of the system via an
LC filter.
The figure below gives an example of VDDPLLB, VDDUTMIC and VDDUTMII.

6289CS–ATARM–28-May-09
AT91SAM9R64/RL64
Figure 5-1. Example of PLL and USB Power Supplies
5.2 Programmable I/O Lines Power Supplies
The power supplies pins VDDIOM support two voltage ranges. This allows the device to reach
its maximum speed either out of 1.8V or 3.3V external memories.
The maximum speed is MCK on the pin SDCK (SDRAM Clock) loaded with 30pF for power sup-
ply at 1.8V and 50 pF for power supply at 3.3V.
The maximum speed on the other signals of the External Bus Interface (control, address and
data signals) is 50 MHz.
The voltage ranges are determined by programming registers in the Chip Configuration registers
located in the Matrix User Interface.
At reset, the selected voltage defaults to 3.3V nominal and power supply pins can accept either
1.8V or 3.3V. The user must make sure to program the EBI voltage range before getting the
device out of its Slow Clock Mode.
The PIO lines are supplied through VDDIOP and the speed of the signal that can be driven on
them can reach 50 MHz with 50 pF load.

6. I/O Line Considerations
6.1 JTAG Port Pins
TMS, TDI and TCK are schmitt trigger inputs and have no pull-up resistors.
TDO is an output, driven at up to VDDIOP, and have no pull-up resistor.
The JTAGSEL pin is used to select the JTAG boundary scan when asserted at a high level. It
integrates a permanent pull-down resistor of about 15 kΩ to GNDBU, so that it can be left uncon-
nected for normal operations.
All the JTAG signals are supplied with VDDIOP except JTAGSEL supplied by VDDBU.
6.2 Test Pin
The TST pin is used for manufacturing test purposes when asserted high. It integrates a perma-
nent pull-down resistor of about 15 kΩ to GNDBU, so that it can be left unconnected for normal
operations. Driving this line at a high level leads to unpredictable results.
This pin is supplied with VDDBU.
6.3 Reset Pins
NRST is an open-drain output integrating a non-programmable pull-up resistor. It can be driven
with voltage at up to VDDIOP.
As the product integrates power-on reset cells, which manages the processor and the JTAG
reset, the NRST and NTRST pin can be left unconnected.
The NRST and NTRST pins integrates a permanent pull-up resistor of 100 kΩ typical to
VDDIOP.
The NRST signal is inserted in the Boundary Scan.
6.4 PIO Controllers
All the I/O lines which are managed by the PIO Controllers integrate a programmable pull-up
resistor. Refer to the section “AT91SAM9R64/RL64 Electrical Characteristics” in the product
datasheet for more details.
After reset, all the I/O lines default as inputs with pull-up resistors enabled, except those which
are multiplexed with the External Bus Interface signals that require to be enabled as Peripheral
at reset. This is explicitly indicated in the column “Reset State” of the PIO Controller multiplexing
tables.
6.5 Shutdown Logic Pins
The pin WKUP is an input-only. It can accept voltages only between 0V and VDDBU.

7.2 Matrix Masters
The Bus Matrix of the AT91SAM9R64/RL64 product manages 6 masters, which means that
each master can perform an access concurrently with others, to an available slave.
Each master has its own decoder, which is defined specifically for each master. In order to sim-
plify the addressing, all the masters have the same decodings.

7.3 Matrix Slaves
The Bus Matrix of the AT91SAM9R64/RL64 product manages 6 slaves. Each slave has its own
arbiter, allowing a different arbitration per slave.
7.4 Master to Slave Access
All the Masters can normally access all the Slaves. However, some paths do not make sense,
for example allowing access from the USB Device High speed DMA to the Internal Peripherals.
Thus, these paths are forbidden or simply not wired, and shown as “-” in the following table.

AT91SAM9R64/RL64
A first level of address decoding is performed by the AHB Bus Matrix, i.e., the implementation of
the Advanced High performance Bus (AHB) for its Master and Slave interfaces with additional
features.
Decoding breaks up the 4G bytes of address space into 16 banks of 256M bytes. The banks 1 to
8 are directed to the EBI that associates these banks to the external chip selects EBI_NCS0 to
EBI_NCS5. The bank 0 is reserved for the addressing of the internal memories, and a second
level of decoding provides 1M byte of internal memory area. The bank 15 is reserved for the
peripherals and provides access to the Advanced Peripheral Bus (APB).
Other areas are unused and performing an access within them provides an abort to the master
requesting such an access.

8.1.1 Internal Memory Mapping
Table 8-1 summarizes the Internal Memory Mapping for each Master, depending on the Remap
status (RCBx bit) and the BMS state at reset.
Notes: 1. x = 0 to maximum Master number.
2. EBI NCS0 is to be connected to a 16-bit non-volatile memory. The access configuration is
defined by the reset state of SMC Setup, SMC Pulse, SMC Cycle and SMC Mode CS0
registers.
8.1.1.1 Internal SRAM
The AT91SAM9R64/RL64 product embeds a total of 64Kbyte high-speed SRAM split in 4 blocks
of 16KBytes.
After reset and until the Remap Command is performed, the SRAM is only accessible at address
0x0030 0000.
After Remap, the SRAM also becomes available at address 0x0.
This Internal SRAM can be allocated to threes areas. Its Memory Mapping is detailed in Table 8-
2.
Internal SRAM A is the ARM926EJ-S Instruction TCM. The user can map this SRAM block
anywhere in the ARM926 instruction memory space using CP15 instructions and the TCR
configuration register located in the Chip Configuration User Interface. This SRAM block is
also accessible by the ARM926 Data Master and by the AHB Masters through the AHB bus
at address 0x0010 0000.

6289CS–ATARM–28-May-09
AT91SAM9R64/RL64
Internal SRAM B is the ARM926EJ-S Data TCM. The user can map this SRAM block
anywhere in the ARM926 data memory space using CP15 instructions. This SRAM block is
also accessible by the ARM926 Data Master and by the AHB Masters through the AHB bus
at address 0x0020 0000.
Internal SRAM C is only accessible by all the AHB Masters. After reset and until the Remap
Command is performed, this SRAM block is accessible through the AHB bus at address
0x0030 0000 by all the AHB Masters. After Remap, this SRAM block also becomes
accessible through the AHB bus at address 0x0 by the ARM926 Instruction and the ARM926
Data Masters.
Within the 64Kbyte SRAM size available, the amount of memory assigned to each block is soft-
ware programmable as a multiple of 16K Bytes according to Table 8-2. This Table provides the
size of the Internal SRAM C according to the size of the Internal SRAM A and the Internal SRAM
B.
At reset, the whole memory is assigned to Internal SRAM C.
The memory blocks assigned to SRAM A, SRAM B and SRAM C areas are not contiguous and
when the user dynamically changes the Internal SRAM configuration, the new 16-Kbyte block
organization may affect the previous configuration from a software point of view.
Table 8-3 illustrates different configurations and the related 16-Kbyte blocks (RB0 to RB3)
assignments.

AT91SAM9R64/RL64
When accessed from the AHB, the internal Fast SRAM is single cycle accessible at full matrix
speed (MCK). When accessed from the processor’s TCM Interface, they are also single cycle
accessible at full processor speed.
8.1.1.2 Internal ROM
The AT91SAM9R64/RL64 embeds an Internal ROM, which contains the SAM-BA program.
At any time, the ROM is mapped at address 0x0040 0000. It is also accessible at address 0x0
(BMS =1) after the reset and before the Remap Command.
8.1.2 Boot Strategies
The system always boots at address 0x0. To ensure maximum boot possibilities, the memory
layout can be changed with two parameters.
REMAP allows the user to layout the internal SRAM bank to 0x0 to ease the development. This
is done by software once the system has boot. Refer to the Bus Matrix Section for more details.
When REMAP = 0 BMS allows the user to lay out to 0x0, at his convenience, the ROM or an
external memory. This is done by a hardware way at reset.
Note: All the memory blocks can always be seen at their specified base addresses that are not
concerned by these parameters.
The AT91SAM9R64/RL64 Bus Matrix manages a boot memory that depends on the level on the
pin BMS at reset. The internal memory area mapped between address 0x0 and 0x000F FFFF is
reserved to this effect.
If BMS is detected at 1, the boot memory is the embedded ROM.
If BMS is detected at 0, the boot memory is the memory connected on the Chip Select 0 of the
External Bus Interface.

AT91SAM9R64/RL64
Boot with the default configuration for the Static Memory Controller, byte select mode, 16-bit
data bus, Read/Write controlled by Chip Select, allows boot on 16-bit non-volatile memory.
For optimization purposes, nothing else is done. To speed up the boot sequence user pro-
grammed software should perform a complete configuration:
Enable the 32768 Hz oscillator if best accuracy needed
Program the PMC (main oscillator enable or bypass mode)
Program and Start the PLL
Reprogram the SMC setup, cycle, hold, mode timings registers for CS0 to adapt them to the
new clock
Switch the main clock to the new value

9. System Controller
The System Controller is a set of peripherals, which allow handling of key elements of the sys-
tem, such as power, resets, clocks, time, interrupts, watchdog, etc.
The System Controller User Interface embeds also the registers allowing to configure the Matrix
and a set of registers configuring the EBI chip select assignment and the voltage range for exter-
nal memories.
9.1 System Controller Mapping
As shown in Figure 8-1, the System Controller’s peripherals are all mapped within the highest
16K bytes of the 4 Gbyte address space, between addresses 0xFFFF C000 and 0xFFFF FFFF.
However, all the registers of System Controller are mapped on the top of the address space.
This allows addressing all the registers of the System Controller from a single pointer by using
the standard ARM instruction set, as the Load/Store instruction have an indexing mode of +/-
4kbytes.

9.3 Reset Controller
The Reset Controller is based on two Power-on-Reset cells, one on VDDBU and one on
VDDCORE.
The Reset Controller is capable to return to the software the source of the last reset, either a
general reset (VDDBU rising), a wake-up reset (VDDCORE rising), a software reset, a user
reset or a watchdog reset.
The Reset Controller controls the internal resets of the system and the NRST pin output. It is
capable to shape a reset signal for the external devices, simplifying to a minimum connection of
a push-button on the NRST pin to implement a manual reset.
The configuration of the Reset Controller is saved as supplied on VDDBU.
9.4 Shutdown Controller
The Shutdown Controller is supplied on VDDBU and allows a software-controllable shut down of
the system through the pin SHDN. An input change of the WKUP pin or an alarm releases the
SHDN pin, and thus wakes up the system power supply.
9.5 Clock Generator
The Clock Generator is made up of:
One low-power 32768 Hz Slow Clock Oscillator with bypass mode
One low-power RC oscillator
One 12 MHz Main Oscillator, which can be bypassed
One 480 MHz PLL (UPLL or PLLB) providing a clock for the USB High Speed Device
Controller
One 80 to 240 MHz programmable PLL, providing the PLL Clock (PLLCK). This PLL has an
input divider to offer a wider range of output frequencies from the 12 MHz input, the only
limitation being the lowest input frequency shall be higher or equal to 1 MHz.

9.6 Slow Clock Selection
9.6.1 Description
The AT91SAM9R64/RL64 slow clock can be generated either by an external 32768Hz crystal or
the on-chip RC oscillator. The 32768Hz crystal oscillator can be bypassed to accept an external
slow clock on XIN32.
Configuration is located in the slow clock control register (SCKCR) located at address
0xFFFFFD50 in the backed up part of the system controller and so is preserved while VDDBU is
present.
Refer to the “Clock Generator” section for more details.
9.7 Power Management Controller
The Power Management Controller provides all the clock signals to the system. It provides:
the Processor Clock PCK
the Master Clock MCK, in particular to the Matrix and the memory interfaces
the USB Device HS Clock HSCK
independent peripheral clocks, typically at the frequency of MCK
two programmable clock outputs: PCK0 and PCK1
This allows the software control of five flexible operating modes:
Normal Mode, processor and peripherals running at a programmable frequency
Idle Mode, processor stopped waiting for an interrupt
Slow Clock Mode, processor and peripherals running at low frequency

10.3 Peripheral Interrupts and Clock Control
10.3.1 System Interrupt
The System Interrupt in Source 1 is the wired-OR of the interrupt signals coming from:
the SDRAM Controller
the Debug Unit
the Periodic Interval Timer
the Real-time Timer
the Real-time Clock
the Watchdog Timer
the Reset Controller
the Power Management Controller
The clock of these peripherals cannot be deactivated and Peripheral ID 1 can only be used
within the Advanced Interrupt Controller.
10.3.2 External Interrupts
All external interrupt signals, i.e., the Fast Interrupt signal FIQ or the Interrupt signal IRQ, use a
dedicated Peripheral ID. However, there is no clock control associated with these peripheral IDs.
10.4 Peripherals Signals Multiplexing on I/O Lines
The AT91SAM9R64/RL64 features 4 PIO controllers, PIOA, PIOB, PIOC and PIOD, which mul-
tiplexes the I/O lines of the peripheral set.
Each PIO Controller controls up to 32 lines. Each line can be assigned to one of two peripheral
functions, A or B. The multiplexing tables in the following paragraphs define how the I/O lines of
the peripherals A and B are multiplexed on the PIO Controllers. The two columns “Function” and
“Comments” have been inserted in this table for the user’s own comments; they may be used to
track how pins are defined in an application.
Note that some peripheral functions which are output only, might be duplicated within the both
tables.
The column “Reset State” indicates whether the PIO Line resets in I/O mode or in peripheral
mode. If I/O is mentioned, the PIO Line resets in input with the pull-up enabled, so that the
device is maintained in a static state as soon as the reset is released. As a result, the bit corre-
sponding to the PIO Line in the register PIO_PSR (Peripheral Status Register) resets low.
If a signal name is mentioned in the “Reset State” column, the PIO Line is assigned to this func-
tion and the corresponding bit in PIO_PSR resets high. This is the case for pins controlling
memories, in particular the address lines, which require the pin to be driven as soon as the reset
is released. Note that the pull-up resistor is also enabled in this case.
The AT91SAM9RL64 and AT91SAM9R64 do not have the same peripheral signal multiplexing,
each one follows.
