MikroElektronika - mikroXMEGA Board - Small package tool with ATxmega128A1, 8Mhz oscillator, FT232R
This board offers you cheap and effective solution for building a prototype with Atmel’s powerful new AVR XMEGA microcontroller.
What is mikroXMEGA?
mikroXMEGA Board is a complete solution for fast and simple development of embedded applications using new Atmel® ATxmega128A1 device connected to 8Mhz oscillator.
Bootloader
Board comes with bootloader, so it can be program over USB-UART connection.
Programming and debugging
It also features connectors for external programmer and JTAG, thus enabling in-circuit debugging and firmware programming.
Connectivity
Every pin of the on-board device can be connected with external circuits using connection pads.
Operating voltage
Board is designed to use 3.3V power supply only. Be careful to use voltage translators on communication lines when connecting it to 5V systems.
Where can I find Examples?
Easy-to-use examples provided with this board will show and explain the ATxmega128A1 operation. Each example contains a detailed description of the relevant program including comments.

ATxmega MCU
A low-power, high-performance and peripheral rich AVR® based MCU ATxmega128A1.
Oscillator circuit
The microcontroller is connected to the 8Mhz oscillator which provides external clock.
UART Selection Jumpers
Jumpers for selecting which UART pins of the MCU will be connected to USB-UART.
Connection pads
Connection pads are connected to every pin of microcontroller can be used for further connecting.
JTAG connector
Connectors for in-circuit debugging and programming with AVR JTAG.
PDI connector
Connector for serial (ICSP) programming with AVR ISP.
miniUSB connector
Board can be connected with a PC using miniUSB conector for USB-UART communication.
Key Features
- Board features ATxmega128A1 with lots of MIPS power, just enough flash and RAM, and rich set of inegrated modules, which is an ideal choice for both beginners and pros.
- A USB to serial UART interface FT232R is available on-board for easy connection with a PC.
- Connection pads enable fast and easy connectivity.
Key Benefits
- Full-featured XMEGA-AVR development system at a popular price
- Best supported with mikroElektronika AVR compilers.
- You won’t have to spend a dollar more on external programmers, because chip with bootloader can program itself with your new program. Very handy, isn’t it?
How do I use the bootloader?
1. Connect with MCU
Reset the board and and click on ‘Connect With MCU’ within 5s timeframe to force the chip into bootloader mode.
2. Load your HEX
Click on ’Browse for HEX’ button and find the desired HEX file you want to program your mikroXMEGA board with.
3. Start bootloading
Click on ‘Begin Uploading’ button to start the process. After uploading is completed, reset the chip to start your new program.
More detailed steps are described in How To Use Booloader manual.
