Kit Modifications

SAMC21N Xplained Pro has several resistors and jumpers that can be removed/cut to disconnect I/O pins of the ATSAMC21N18A from connectors and on-board ICs and to disconnect/measure power to different sections.

J101 VCC_TARGET_X_P3V3_P5V0 VCC_MCU_P3V3_P5V0 Remove this jumper (JS100) to measure current to the MCU section
J102 VCC_P5V0 (pin 1) and VCC_P3V3 (pin 3) VCC_TARGET_SWITCH_P3V3_P5V0 Use this jumper (JS101) to select either 5.0V or 3.3V voltage to the Target section. Default setting in production is 5.0V.
J103 VCC_IN_P5V0 VCC_P5V0 Cut this jumper to measure current from the 5.0V input MUX section. The footprint is 0603 sized.
J104 VCC_P3V3_TARGET VCC_P3V3 Cut this jumper to measure current to the Target and MCU sections. The footprint is 0603 sized.
J105 3.3V linear regulator output for EDBG section VCC_EDBG_P3V3 Cut this jumper to measure current to the EDBG section. The footprint is 0603 sized.
J106 VCC_TARGET_X_P3V3_P5V0 VCC_TARGET_P3V3_P5V0 Cut this jumper to measure current to the Target section. The footprint is 0603 sized.
J300 PA15_XOUT 16MHz crystal pin Cut this jumper and mount resistors to find 16MHz crystal oscillator safety factor. The footprint is 0603 sized.
J501 LIN signal Pull-up resistor to VS voltage Mount this jumper (JS501) to set the LIN transceiver as Master node. Default setting in production is mounted.
J502 VS_LIN VCC_TARGET_P3V3_P5V0 Mount this jumper (JS500) to power the LIN transceiver from VCC_TARGET_P3V3_P5V0. Remove this jumper when the LIN transceiver is powered from the LIN bus. Default setting in production is mounted.
J504 CAN0 device, Standby pin GND Cut this jumper to explore the standby functionality of the CAN 0 transceiver (ATA6561). The footprint is 0603 sized.
J506 CAN1 device, Standby pin GND Cut this jumper to explore the standby functionality of the CAN 1 transceiver (ATA6561). The footprint is 0603 sized.
