Hi, Does anyone know of a source for samples of any of the chips in the AT91SAM7 line? My standard net searches show only the dev kits at $250. I don't really want another dev kit, since I already have the full IAR ARM compiler and have done several designs with the AT91R40807. I'd like to put together a small PCB to test the SAM7 series as a replacement for the AT91 controllers in some low-end products. In particular, I need to add an SPI Data Flash and 16 to 24-bit SPI ADC---which is usually a pain on the dev kit boards. Mark Borgerson

My distributor (DTE in the UK) is very helpful, though. Leon
