The Arduino Zero is based on Atmel's SAMD21 MCU. The SAMD21 MCU comes with 256kb of flash and 32kb SRAM in a TQFP package and is compatible with a 3.3V Shield that conforms to the Arduino R3 Layout.

In May, Atmel and Arduino showed off a new development board called Zero to build electronics and wearable devices. Last month, Atmel launched a set of ARM-based microcontrollers with sensors and ...

Arduino's new Arduino Zero is its first Uno sized 32-bit development board, and was created in partnership with ATmel.

Arduino has equipped their new Arduino Zero board with an Atmel’s SAMD21 MCU, featuring a 32-bit ARM Cortex M0+ core, with 256kb of flash and 32kb SRAM in a TQFP package making it compatible ...

This new Arduino Zero board works with no less than an Atmel SAMD21 MCU. This architecture rolls with a 32-bit ARM Cortex M0+ core, enabling the Arduino Zero to far outperform its predecessor. As ...

We stopped by the Atmel booth at Maker Faire to gawk at the pre-production Arduino Zero boards they were showing off. [Bob] gave us a rundown of everything the new board offers, and it’s better ...

The Arduino Zero uses an Atmel ARM Cortex-M0+ for 256kB of Flash and 32k of RAM. The board supports Atmel’s Embedded Debugger, finally giving the smaller Arduino boards debugging support.

During this years Maker Faire, the Hack-a-Day website were able to get an interview with Bob from Atmel for the lowdown on the recently announced Arduino Zero development board.

The LittleBits Arduino at Heart starter kit and Atmel’s Zero board are being shown at the Maker Faire Bay Area event Thursday in San Mateo, California.

In a move that could bring faster wireless capabilities to gadgets and Arduino boards, chip maker Atmel is buying wireless chip maker Newport Media for US$140 million.
