From Arduino board to an Embedded aplication.

Official Hardware Mega Due
1

Hi there!
I've used my Arduino Due board to develop my project and it looks great! Now I would like to move it to my embedded electronics. How can I program the Atmel SAM3X8E ARM Cortex-M3 using the Arduino language/environment in my own embedded board?
Must I necessarily use the ATMEGA16U2? I don't mind pushing the ERASE/RESET buttons.
Thank you for your help!
Cheers,
Aurelio

16U2 provides the USB/Serial interface. Can likely use any USB/Serial interface chip you wanted, such as FT2323R or FT232RL.

FT232R, FT232RL (package difference).

You can use the build-in usb port. The chip got a preprogrammed bootloader, which you can use with the arduino ide afaik.

Thank you Gericom and CrossRoads.
So Gericom, you are saying I could compile my code using Arduino and upload the *.bin file using SAM-BA directly through the built in usb port? That should work?

I think you should be able to upload from within the arduino ide (native port).

That makes a lot more sense.
Will try that first and let you know.
Thank you!
