SAM S70 series of general purpose Flash microcontrollers (MCUs) is based on the high-performance 32-bit ARM Cortex-M7 RISC processor with dual precision floating point unit (FPU). It operates at a maximum speed of 300MHz and features up to 2048kB of Flash, 2x 16KB of cache memory and up to 384KB of SRAM. A QSPI, static memory and SDRAM interface offer further memory extension options.

The SAM S70 series offers a rich set of peripherals, including high Speed USB Host and Device with on-chip high-speed phy, CMOS Camera Interface, one SD/MMC interface, one SSC supporting TDM and I2S, 8 UARTs, 5 SPI and 3 I2C™.
