ATSAM4S4 variants from Microchip Technology
ATSAM4S4 Overview
What changes between part numbers, and what to check before you lock the BOM — Microcontrollers.
ATSAM4S4 is a Microchip Technology order-code family — not a single orderable MPN. This page lists 5 variants that share the same core device but differ in suffix fields (package, grade, reel/tube, electrical bin, etc.). Pick the exact full part number; substituting within the family without checking the datasheet often causes assembly or spec mismatches.
IC MCU 32BIT 256KB FLASH 48LQFP Other listed variants describe: IC MCU 32BIT 256KB FLASH 64LQFP; Package: 64-VFQFN Exposed Pad | Mounting Type: Surface Mount | Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 105°C (TA) | Supplier Device Package: 64-QFN (9x9) | Peripherals: Brown-out Detect/Reset, DMA, POR, PWM, WDT | Number of I O: 47.
Across listed variants, watch these parameters: packages: 64-VFQFN Exposed Pad, 100-LQFP.
Suffix examples in this family: AB-AN, BA-AU, BB-MN, CB-AN, CB-ANR. The characters after the base number usually encode package, temperature, or performance grade — compare the variant table column-by-column rather than assuming pin-compatible drops-in.
Columns that actually vary on this page: Package Type. If two rows match on MPN prefix but differ there, they are not interchangeable for production.
Example MPNs: ATSAM4S4AB-AN, ATSAM4S4BA-AU, ATSAM4S4BB-MN, ATSAM4S4CB-AN, ATSAM4S4CB-ANR.
Key Features
- Footprint / package: 64-VFQFN Exposed Pad, 100-LQFPLand pattern and thermal pad differ between these packages — run a quick footprint check before you swap variants.
- Lifecycle mix: ActiveConfirm lifecycle on the exact MPN, not just the base number prefix.
- 5 distinct suffix patternsExamples: AB-AN, BA-AU, BB-MN, CB-AN, CB-ANR. Decode suffix meaning in the ordering notes under the variant table.
Target Applications
- Microcontrollers — design-in and field replacement
- BOM scrub where only the base prefix is known but suffix is TBD
- Second-source checks when the original MPN is constrained

Ordering Code Differences
How suffixes on ATSAM4S4 map to package, grade, and reel options.
ATSAM4S4 uses a shared prefix; characters after the prefix encode orderable options. Two lines with the same prefix are not drop-in replacements unless the differing columns match your need.
Suffixes seen here: AB-AN, BA-AU, BB-MN, CB-AN, CB-ANR.
What changes between rows: Package Type. Sort the table by these columns when narrowing from base number to a single MPN.
Full MPN examples: ATSAM4S4AB-AN, ATSAM4S4BA-AU, ATSAM4S4BB-MN, ATSAM4S4CB-AN, ATSAM4S4CB-ANR.
Tip: photograph or copy the reel label — reel diameter, QTY per reel, and moisture sensitivity level (MSL) are often suffix-driven and won't show in the schematic.
How to Choose the Right ATSAM4S4 Microcontrollers
Match the footprint first
Packages here: 64-VFQFN Exposed Pad, 100-LQFP. Open the land-pattern drawing before you substitute a different suffix.
Electrical headroom
Compare voltage and current columns in the variant table. For ATSAM4S4, a suffix with lower voltage or current rating will not survive the same circuit without recalculation.
Temp grade letter matters
Commercial (0–70 °C) and industrial (−40–85 °C+) suffixes look similar in the prefix — confirm ambient + self-heating, not just the first page of the datasheet.
Copy the full MPN
Do not BOM only "ATSAM4S4" — include the full suffix (e.g. AB-AN, BA-AU, BB-MN). RFQ with reel/tube preference and required date code.
