What's your progress with the SAMA5D4?

Jan Cumps — Sun, 03 May 2015 20:13:44 GMT

Fellow contenders, how far did you get with the Atmel SMART SAMA5D4 Xplained Ultra board?

What are you going to do with this kit in your project?

Have you been able to use it for your Enchanted Object?

to work together on getting us to the point where we can build and run code for the The specified item was not found. SMART SAMA5D4 Xplained Ultra .

This board is rather tough to crack. It would be great if we could all share the small steps that work here.

If you get one step further than anyone else, let's document our progress here.

It would be great to document it in reproducible steps.

I tried to create a Document, but that's not available in this section of the element14 website. So it's a Discussion.

This seems to coincide with this challenge

More ideas

Workshopshed — Wed, 18 Feb 2015 14:58:46 GMT

I found a few things along these lines when creating my Topsy Turvy clock. I think one of my favourites was a Fisher Price toy telephone hack that you could use to dial up and get a weather forecast.

Materials requirements and limitations...

Former Member — Wed, 18 Feb 2015 02:23:34 GMT

How much of the provided kit materials are you required to use?

What are the limitations on using materials not included in the kit?
