384K program memory and 32K SRAM!
This is going to be fun.

It's not on Atmel's list of XMegas.

I'll have to get my Mouser order in before Gabotronics does.

Edit:
<OK, for those who didn't get the joke: I think it was Gabriel who bought ALL of Mouser's available stock when one of the earlier Xmegas came out...>

Didn't see the 384kB/32kB version in the XMEGA C3 preliminary datasheet but good to know there's a plan for one.
C3 looks like an A3U minus DAC, minus JTAG, and a slower ADC; slightly less power consumption.
Revision I, no known errata - looks like it underwent a lot of spins and testing.

That EETimes articles says that ATxmega384C3 and 384D3 are sampling now.

Still no xmega "U" version with EBI support!

Rats! Maybe next time.

Ok, since it's on the Atmel website I can confirm these exist, at least on paper now Wink.

Nope, just got home. Churning though the billion-odd emails I've received, from here and everywhere else Razz.

I wonder how it will be until DigiKey has them? I am basing a project on the XMega384, and will be ready for the silicon in a month or so.

My strong advice would be to not design it in until there are samples available, unless it's not a critical project.

At this point I have a 32K SRAM hooked to an XMega256, but if this 384 becomes real, then I do not need the external SRAM.

Maybe now that the XMega is established, it will be mere weeks not years before these are available?

Dreaming?

I wonder why it has the 'off' number of 384 KB for the flash ?

Maybe it has a "special" BIG chunk section of flash ? For what I couldn't guess...

Perhaps:

a) Because silicon area costs and 512K would have priced it out of the market sector they are trying to service?

b) They had a large customer with a requirement for something over 256K so they asked them how much they thought they needed and made a chip design to deliver that (again silicon area costs)

As John cells they likely have a "cell" for a 64K or 128K memory array so they place 6 or 3 of those.

If John wants to cell anything, maybe he should post in the trading forum. Groan...
