Product details
Overview
The ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT from Microchip Technology (formerly Atmel) is an adapter board enabling UART hardware flow control between the ATBTLC1000-XPRO Bluetooth expansion board and select SAM Xplained Pro base boards including SAM L21, SAM D21, SAM 4S, and SAM G55 variants.
For engineers reviewing the ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT datasheet, ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT pinout, ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT application, or ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT equivalent, this adapter resolves UART RTS/CTS signal routing mismatches between the ATBTLC1000-XPRO and specific Xplained Pro base board headers to ensure reliable Bluetooth serial communication under flow-controlled operation.
Technical Context
This adapter board bridges pinout incompatibility between the ATBTLC1000-XPRO expansion board and certain Atmel Xplained Pro base boards by rerouting UART control signals - specifically RTS (Request to Send) and CTS (Clear to Send) - to match the physical header layout and signal assignment of supported SAM MCU development platforms.
It does not contain active components or firmware; its function is purely passive signal translation and mechanical alignment, ensuring correct electrical connection without level shifting, voltage conversion, or protocol handling.

FAQ
What is the primary purpose of the ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT?
The ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT is a passive mechanical and signal-routing adapter that enables UART hardware flow control (RTS/CTS) between the ATBTLC1000-XPRO Bluetooth expansion board and specific Atmel Xplained Pro base boards. It ensures correct pin alignment where native header mapping is incompatible, allowing reliable serial communication during high-throughput Bluetooth data transfer. The ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT contains no active circuitry.
Which base boards are compatible with the ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT?
The ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT is explicitly validated for use with the SAM L21 Xplained Pro, SAM D21 Xplained Pro, SAM 4S Xplained Pro, and SAM G55 Xplained Pro base boards. Compatibility is limited to these models due to precise header layout and UART control signal positioning requirements. The ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT does not support other Xplained or Curiosity platforms.
Does the ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT require power or firmware?
No - the ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT is a passive adapter board with no integrated ICs, voltage regulators, or programmable elements. It draws no power and requires no firmware, configuration, or driver installation. Its function is strictly physical pin remapping for RTS/CTS signal continuity. The ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT operates solely through copper trace routing.
Can the ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT be used without the ATBTLC1000-XPRO expansion board?
No - the ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT has no standalone functionality. It is mechanically and electrically designed only as an interposer between the ATBTLC1000-XPRO and compatible Xplained Pro base boards. Without the ATBTLC1000-XPRO expansion board, the ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT provides no interface, signal path, or utility.
Is hardware flow control mandatory when using the ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT?
Hardware flow control via RTS/CTS is not mandatory for basic ATBTLC1000-XPRO operation, but the ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT exists specifically to enable it where required - for example, in applications involving sustained high-speed serial data transfer to prevent UART buffer overflow. The ATBTLC1000-XPRO-ADPT makes this capability accessible on otherwise incompatible base boards.
