AT91SAM9G20 Summary
1. Description
The AT91SAM9G20 is based on the integration of an ARM926EJ-S processor with fast ROM
and RAM memories and a wide range of peripherals.
The AT91SAM9G20 embeds an Ethernet MAC, one USB Device Port, and a USB Host controller. It also integrates several standard peripherals, such as the USART, SPI, TWI, Timer
Counters, Synchronous Serial Controller, ADC and MultiMedia Card Interface.
The AT91SAM9G20 is architectured on a 6-layer matrix, allowing a maximum internal bandwidth
of six 32-bit buses. It also features an External Bus Interface capable of interfacing with a wide
range of memory devices.
The AT91SAM9G20 is an enhancement of the AT91SAM9260 with the same peripheral features. It is pin-to-pin compatible with the exception of power supply pins. Speed is increased to
reach 400 MHz on the ARM core and 133 MHz on the system bus and EBI.

AT91SAM9G20 Summary
6384DS–ATARM–13-Jan-10
AT91SAM9G20 Summary
5. Power Considerations
5.1
Power Supplies
The AT91SAM9G20 has several types of power supply pins:
• VDDCORE pins: Power the core, including the processor, the embedded memories and the
peripherals; voltage ranges from 0.9V to 1.1V, 1.0V nominal.
• VDDIOM pins: Power the External Bus Interface I/O lines; voltage ranges between 1.65V and
1.95V (1.8V typical) or between 3.0V and 3.6V (3.3V nominal). The voltage range is
selectable by software.
• VDDIOP pins: Power the Peripherals I/O lines; voltage ranges from 1.65V to 3.6V.
• VDDBU pin: Powers the Slow Clock oscillator, the internal RC oscillator and a part of the
System Controller; voltage ranges from 0.9V to 1.1V, 1.0V nominal.
• VDDPLL pin: Powers the PLL cells; voltage ranges from 0.9V to 1.1V.
• VDDOSC pin: Powers the Main Oscillator cells; voltage ranges from 1.65V to 3.6V
• VDDANA pin: Powers the Analog to Digital Converter; voltage ranges from 3.0V to 3.6V, 3.3V
nominal.
• VDDUSB pin: Powers USB transceiver; voltage ranges from 3.0V to 3.6V.
Ground pins GND are common to VDDCORE, VDDIOM, VDDOSC and VDDIOP pins power
supplies. Separated ground pins are provided for VDDBU, VDDPLL, VDDUSB and VDDANA.
These ground pins are respectively GNDBU, GNDPLL, GNDUSB and GNDANA.
5.2
Programmable I/O Lines
The power supplies pins VDDIOM accept 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 133 MHz on the pin SDCK (SDRAM Clock) loaded with 10 pF. The other
signals (control, address and data signals) do not go over 66 MHz, loaded with 30 pF for power
supply at 1.8V and 50 pF for power supply at 3.3V.
The EBI I/Os accept two slew rate modes, Fast and Slow. This allows to adapt the rising and falling time on SDRAM clock, control and data to the bus load.
The voltage ranges and the slew rates are determined by programming VDDIOMSEL and IOSR
bits 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.
At reset, the selected slew rates defaults are Fast.
13
6384DS–ATARM–13-Jan-10
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 and RTCK are outputs, 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 GND, so that it can be left unconnected for normal operations.
The NTRST signal is described in the Reset Pins paragraph.
All the JTAG signals are supplied with VDDIOP.
6.2
Test Pin
The TST pin is used for manufacturing test purposes when asserted high. It integrates a permanent 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.
NTRST is an input which allows reset of the JTAG Test Access port. It has no action on the
processor.
As the product integrates power-on reset cells, which manages the processor and the JTAG
reset, the NRST and NTRST pins can be left unconnected.
The NRST and NTRST pins both integrate a permanent pull-up resistor of 100 kΩ minimum to
VDDIOP.
The NRST signal is inserted in the Boundary Scan.
6.4
PIO Controllers
All the I/O lines are Schmitt trigger inputs and all the lines managed by the PIO Controllers integrate a programmable pull-up resistor of 75 kΩ typical with the exception of P4 - P31. For details,
refer to the section “AT91SAM9G20 Electrical Characteristics”. Programming of this pull-up
resistor is performed independently for each I/O line through the PIO Controllers.
6.5
I/O Line Drive Levels
The PIO lines drive current capability is described in the DC Characteristics section of the product datasheet.
6.6
Shutdown Logic Pins
The SHDN pin is a tri-state output only pin, which is driven by the Shutdown Controller. There is
no internal pull-up. An external pull-up to VDDBU is needed and its value must be higher than 1
MΩ. The resisitor value is calculated according to the regulator enable implementation and the
SHDN level.
The pin WKUP is an input-only. It can accept voltages only between 0V and VDDBU.

6384DS–ATARM–13-Jan-10
A first level of address decoding is performed by the 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 256 Mbytes. The banks 1 to
7 are directed to the EBI that associates these banks to the external chip selects EBI_NCS0 to
EBI_NCS7. Bank 0 is reserved for the addressing of the internal memories, and a second level
of decoding provides 1 Mbyte of internal memory area. 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.
Each Master has its own bus and its own decoder, thus allowing a different memory mapping
per Master. However, in order to simplify the mappings, all the masters have a similar address
decoding.
Regarding Master 0 and Master 1 (ARM926 Instruction and Data), three different Slaves are
assigned to the memory space decoded at address 0x0: one for internal boot, one for external
boot, one after remap. Refer to Table 8-1, “Internal Memory Mapping,” on page 20 for details.
A complete memory map is presented in Figure 8-1 on page 19.

USB Host User Interface
The system always boots at address 0x0. To ensure a maximum number of possibilities for boot,
the memory layout can be configured with two parameters.
REMAP allows the user to lay out the first internal SRAM bank to 0x0 to ease development. This
is done by software once the system has booted. When REMAP = 1, BMS is ignored. Refer to
the Bus Matrix Section for more details.

AT91SAM9G20 Summary
When REMAP = 0, BMS allows the user to lay out to 0x0, at his convenience, the ROM or an
external memory. This is done via hardware at reset.
Note:
Memory blocks not affected by these parameters can always be seen at their specified base
addresses. See the complete memory map presented in Figure 8-1 on page 19.
The AT91SAM9G20 matrix manages a boot memory that depends on the level on the BMS pin
at reset. The internal memory area mapped between address 0x0 and 0x000F FFFF is reserved
for this purpose.
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.
8.1.1.1
BMS = 1, Boot on Embedded ROM
The system boots using the Boot Program.
• Boot on slow clock (On-chip RC or 32,768 Hz)
• Auto baudrate detection
• Downloads and runs an application from external storage media into internal SRAM
• Downloaded code size depends on embedded SRAM size
• Automatic detection of valid application
• Bootloader on a non-volatile memory
– SDCard (boot ROM does not support high capacity SDCards.)
– NAND Flash
– SPI DataFlash® and Serial Flash connected on NPCS0 and NPCS1 of the SPI0
– EEPROM on TWI
• SAM-BA® Boot in case no valid program is detected in external NVM, supporting
– Serial communication on a DBGU
– USB Device HS Port
8.1.1.2
BMS = 0, Boot on External Memory
• Boot on slow clock (On-chip RC or 32,768 Hz)
• 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.
The customer-programmed software must perform a complete configuration.
To speed up the boot sequence when booting at 32 kHz EBI CS0 (BMS=0), the user must take
the following steps:
1. Program the PMC (main oscillator enable or bypass mode).
2. Program and start the PLL.
3. Reprogram the SMC setup, cycle, hold, mode timings registers for CS0 to adapt them
to the new clock.
4. 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 system, 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 for the chip configuration. The chip configuration registers allows
configuring:
– EBI chip select assignment and Voltage range for external memories
The System Controller’s peripherals are all mapped within the highest 16 Kbytes of address
space, between addresses 0xFFFF E800 and 0xFFFF FFFF.
However, all the registers of System Controller are mapped on the top of the address space. All
the registers of the System Controller can be addressed from a single pointer by using the standard ARM instruction set, as the Load/Store instruction has an indexing mode of ±4 Kbytes.
Figure 9-1 on page 24 shows the System Controller block diagram.
Figure 8-1 on page 19 shows the mapping of the User Interfaces of the System Controller
peripherals.

10.2.1
Peripheral Interrupts and Clock Control
10.2.1.1
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 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.
10.2.1.2
10.3
External Interrupts
All external interrupt signals, i.e., the Fast Interrupt signal FIQ or the Interrupt signals IRQ0 to
IRQ2, use a dedicated Peripheral ID. However, there is no clock control associated with these
peripheral IDs.
Peripheral Signal Multiplexing on I/O Lines
The AT91SAM9G20 features 3 PIO controllers (PIOA, PIOB, PIOC) that multiplex 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. Table 10-2 on page 31, Table 10-3 on page 32 and Table 10-4 on page 33
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 both
tables.
The column “Reset State” indicates whether the PIO Line resets in I/O mode or in peripheral
mode. If I/O appears, 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 corresponding to
the PIO Line in the register PIO_PSR (Peripheral Status Register) resets low.
If a signal name appears in the “Reset State” column, the PIO Line is assigned to this function
and the corresponding bit in PIO_PSR resets high. This is the case of 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 USART contains features allowing management of the Modem Signals DTR, DSR, DCD
and RI. In the AT91SAM9G20, only the USART0 implements these signals, named DTR0,
DSR0, DCD0 and RI0.
The USART1 and USART2 do not implement all the modem signals. Only RTS and CTS (RTS1
and CTS1, RTS2 and CTS2, respectively) are implemented in these USARTs for other features.
Thus, programming the USART1, USART2 or the USART3 in Modem Mode may lead to unpredictable results. In these USARTs, the commands relating to the Modem Mode have no effect
and the status bits relating the status of the modem signals are never activated.
