4.1.3 Chip Erase Header
There is a 1x2 pin-header that is connected to the SAM4E chip erase pin (PB12) and 3V3 marked ERASE as
shown in Figure 1-1, “SAM4E Xplained Pro Evaluation Kit Overview” on page 4. This header can be used to
chip erase the SAM4E by place a jumper on the header and toggle the power to the board. After the power is
toggled the jumper should be removed. Using the chip erase jumper is the only way to erase a chip with the
security bit set, an application that immediatly sets invalid clock options or goes into deep sleep withouth any
wake-up sources.
4.1.4 Other Headers
In addition to the Xplained Pro standard connectors, SAM4E Xplained Pro has one header with spare signals
that offers access to the I/O of the microcontroller which are otherwise not easily available elsewhere or might
be favourable to have collected toghether. The headers has a pitch of 2.54mm.

4.2 Peripherals
4.2.1 SRAM
The SAM4E Xplained Pro features two external ISSI IS61WV5128BLL-10TLI, 512Kx8, 10ns, SRAMs, SRAM0
and SRAM1. SRAM0 is connected to chip select NCS1 and SRAM1 is connected to chip select NCS3. SRAM
access can be configured in the Static Memory Controller in the SAM4E.
Table 4-6, “SRAM Connections” on page 14 lists all I/O-lines connected to the SRAMs.
