Note:
  1. 1.For SAM L21E and SAM L21G, only TC0, TC1 and TC4 are available.
  2. 2.The number of X- and Y-lines depends on the configuration of the device, as some I/O lines can be configured as either X-lines or Y-lines. Refer to Multiplexed Signals for details. The number in the Configuration Summary is the maximum number of channels that can be obtained.
  3. 3.The number of Y-lines depends on the configuration of the device, as some I/O lines can be configured as either X-lines or Y-lines. The number given here is the maximum number of Y-lines that can be obtained.
  4. 4.WLCSP parts are programmed with a specific SPI bootloader. Refer to Application Note AT09002 for details.
