1.3. System Requirements
The Atmel-ICE unit requires that a front-end debugging environment Atmel Studio version 6.2 or later is
installed on your computer.
The Atmel-ICE should be connected to the host computer using the USB cable provided, or a certified
Micro-USB cable.

2.6. Assembling the Atmel-ICE
The Atmel-ICE unit is shipped with no cables attached. Two cable options are provided in the full kit:
•50-mil 10-pin IDC flat cable with 6-pin ISP and 10-pin connectors
•50-mil 10-pin mini-squid cable with 10 x 100-mil sockets
Figure 2-7. Atmel-ICE Cables
For most purposes, the 50-mil 10-pin IDC flat cable can be used, connecting either natively to its 10-pin
or 6-pin connectors, or connecting via the adapter board. Three adapters are provided on one small
PCBA. The following adapters are included:
•100-mil 10-pin JTAG/SWD adapter
•100-mil 20-pin SAM JTAG/SWD adapter
•50-mil 6-pin SPI/debugWIRE/PDI/aWire adapter
Figure 2-8. Atmel-ICE Adapters
Note:
A 50-mil JTAG adapter has not been provided - this is because the 50-mil 10-pin IDC cable can be used
to connect directly to a 50-mil JTAG header. For the part number of the component used for the 50-mil
10-pin connector, see Atmel-ICE Target Connectors Part Numbers.
The 6-pin ISP/PDI header is included as part of the 10-pin IDC cable. This termination can be cut off if it
is not required.
To assemble your Atmel-ICE into its default configuration, connect the 10-pin 50-mil IDC cable to the unit
as shown below. Be sure to orient the cable so that the red wire (pin 1) on the cable aligns with the
triangular indicator on the blue belt of the enclosure. The cable should connect upwards from the unit. Be
sure to connect to the port corresponding to the pinout of your target - AVR or SAM.
