1. DescriptionThe Atmel AVR core combines a rich instruction set with 32 general purpose working registers. All the32 registers are directly connected to the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU), allowing two independent registersto be accessed in a single instruction executed in one clock cycle. The resulting architecture is more codeefficient while achieving throughputs up to ten times faster than conventional CISC microcontrollers.

The ATmega328/P provides the following features: 32Kbytes of In-System Programmable Flash withRead-While-Write capabilities, 1Kbytes EEPROM, 2Kbytes SRAM, 23 general purpose I/O lines, 32general purpose working registers, Real Time Counter (RTC), three flexible Timer/Counters with comparemodes and PWM, 1 serial programmable USARTs , 1 byte-oriented 2-wire Serial Interface (I2C), a 6-channel 10-bit ADC (8 channels in TQFP and QFN/MLF packages) , a programmable Watchdog Timerwith internal Oscillator, an SPI serial port, and six software selectable power saving modes. The Idlemode stops the CPU while allowing the SRAM, Timer/Counters, SPI port, and interrupt system tocontinue functioning. The Power-down mode saves the register contents but freezes the Oscillator,disabling all other chip functions until the next interrupt or hardware reset. In Power-save mode, theasynchronous timer continues to run, allowing the user to maintain a timer base while the rest of thedevice is sleeping. The ADC Noise Reduction mode stops the CPU and all I/O modules exceptasynchronous timer and ADC to minimize switching noise during ADC conversions. In Standby mode, thecrystal/resonator oscillator is running while the rest of the device is sleeping. This allows very fast start-upcombined with low power consumption. In Extended Standby mode, both the main oscillator and theasynchronous timer continue to run.

Atmel offers the QTouch library for embedding capacitive touch buttons, sliders and wheels functionalityinto AVR microcontrollers. The patented charge-transfer signal acquisition offers robust sensing andincludes fully debounced reporting of touch keys and includes Adjacent Key Suppression (AKS)technology for unambiguous detection of key events. The easy-to-use QTouch Suite toolchain allows youto explore, develop and debug your own touch applications.

The device is manufactured using Atmels high density non-volatile memory technology. The On-chip ISPFlash allows the program memory to be reprogrammed In-System through an SPI serial interface, by aconventional nonvolatile memory programmer, or by an On-chip Boot program running on the AVR core.The Boot program can use any interface to download the application program in the Application Flashmemory. Software in the Boot Flash section will continue to run while the Application Flash section isupdated, providing true Read-While-Write operation. By combining an 8-bit RISC CPU with In-SystemSelf-Programmable Flash on a monolithic chip, the Atmel ATmega328/P is a powerful microcontroller thatprovides a highly flexible and cost effective solution to many embedded control applications.

The ATmega328/P is supported with a full suite of program and system development tools including: CCompilers, Macro Assemblers, Program Debugger/Simulators, In-Circuit Emulators, and Evaluation kits.

5.2. Pin Descriptions

5.2.1. VCCDigital supply voltage.

5.2.2. GNDGround.

5.2.3. Port B (PB[7:0]) XTAL1/XTAL2/TOSC1/TOSC2Port B is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-up resistors (selected for each bit). The Port Boutput buffers have symmetrical drive characteristics with both high sink and source capability. As inputs,Port B pins that are externally pulled low will source current if the pull-up resistors are activated. The PortB pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if the clock is not running.

Depending on the clock selection fuse settings, PB6 can be used as input to the inverting Oscillatoramplifier and input to the internal clock operating circuit.


17

Depending on the clock selection fuse settings, PB7 can be used as output from the inverting Oscillatoramplifier.

If the Internal Calibrated RC Oscillator is used as chip clock source, PB[7:6] is used as TOSC[2:1] inputfor the Asynchronous Timer/Counter2 if the AS2 bit in ASSR is set.

5.2.4. Port C (PC[5:0])Port C is a 7-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-up resistors (selected for each bit). The PC[5:0]output buffers have symmetrical drive characteristics with both high sink and source capability. As inputs,Port C pins that are externally pulled low will source current if the pull-up resistors are activated. The PortC pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if the clock is not running.

5.2.5. PC6/RESETIf the RSTDISBL Fuse is programmed, PC6 is used as an I/O pin. Note that the electrical characteristicsof PC6 differ from those of the other pins of Port C.

If the RSTDISBL Fuse is unprogrammed, PC6 is used as a Reset input. A low level on this pin for longerthan the minimum pulse length will generate a Reset, even if the clock is not running. Shorter pulses arenot guaranteed to generate a Reset.

The various special features of Port C are elaborated in the Alternate Functions of Port C section.

5.2.6. Port D (PD[7:0])Port D is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-up resistors (selected for each bit). The Port Doutput buffers have symmetrical drive characteristics with both high sink and source capability. As inputs,Port D pins that are externally pulled low will source current if the pull-up resistors are activated. The PortD pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if the clock is not running.

5.2.7. AVCCAVCC is the supply voltage pin for the A/D Converter, PC[3:0], and PE[3:2]. It should be externallyconnected to VCC, even if the ADC is not used. If the ADC is used, it should be connected to VCC througha low-pass filter. Note that PC[6:4] use digital supply voltage, VCC.

5.2.8. AREFAREF is the analog reference pin for the A/D Converter.

5.2.9. ADC[7:6] (TQFP and VFQFN Package Only)In the TQFP and VFQFN package, ADC[7:6] serve as analog inputs to the A/D converter. These pins arepowered from the analog supply and serve as 10-bit ADC channels.

10. Capacitive Touch Sensing

10.1. QTouch LibraryThe Atmel QTouch Library provides a simple to use solution to realize touch sensitive interfaces onmost Atmel AVR microcontrollers. The QTouch Library includes support for the Atmel QTouch and AtmelQMatrix acquisition methods.

Touch sensing can be added to any application by linking the appropriate Atmel QTouch Library for theAVR Microcontroller. This is done by using a simple set of APIs to define the touch channels and sensors,and then calling the touch sensing APIs to retrieve the channel information and determine the touchsensor states.

The QTouch Library is FREE and downloadable from the Atmel website at the following location: http://www.atmel.com/technologies/touch/. For implementation details and other information, refer to the AtmelQTouch Library User Guide - also available for download from the Atmel website.

11. AVR CPU Core

11.1. OverviewThis section discusses the AVR core architecture in general. The main function of the CPU core is toensure correct program execution. The CPU must therefore be able to access memories, performcalculations, control peripherals, and handle interrupts.

Stack pointer

In order to maximize performance and parallelism, the AVR uses a Harvard architecture with separatememories and buses for program and data. Instructions in the program memory are executed with asingle level pipelining. While one instruction is being executed, the next instruction is pre-fetched from theprogram memory. This concept enables instructions to be executed in every clock cycle. The programmemory is In-System Reprogrammable Flash memory.

The fast-access Register File contains 32 x 8-bit general purpose working registers with a single clockcycle access time. This allows single-cycle Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) operation. In a typical ALUoperation, two operands are output from the Register File, the operation is executed, and the result isstored back in the Register File in one clock cycle.

Six of the 32 registers can be used as three 16-bit indirect address register pointers for Data Spaceaddressing enabling efficient address calculations. One of the these address pointers can also be usedas an address pointer for look up tables in Flash program memory. These added function registers arethe 16-bit X-, Y-, and Z-register, described later in this section.


25

The ALU supports arithmetic and logic operations between registers or between a constant and aregister. Single register operations can also be executed in the ALU. After an arithmetic operation, theStatus Register is updated to reflect information about the result of the operation.

Program flow is provided by conditional and unconditional jump and call instructions, able to directlyaddress the whole address space. Most AVR instructions have a single 16-bit word format. Everyprogram memory address contains a 16- or 32-bit instruction.

Program Flash memory space is divided in two sections, the Boot Program section and the ApplicationProgram section. Both sections have dedicated Lock bits for write and read/write protection. The SPMinstruction that writes into the Application Flash memory section must reside in the Boot Program section.

During interrupts and subroutine calls, the return address Program Counter (PC) is stored on the Stack.The Stack is effectively allocated in the general data SRAM, and consequently the Stack size is onlylimited by the total SRAM size and the usage of the SRAM. All user programs must initialize the SP in theReset routine (before subroutines or interrupts are executed). The Stack Pointer (SP) is read/writeaccessible in the I/O space. The data SRAM can easily be accessed through the five different addressingmodes supported in the AVR architecture.

The memory spaces in the AVR architecture are all linear and regular memory maps.

A flexible interrupt module has its control registers in the I/O space with an additional Global InterruptEnable bit in the Status Register. All interrupts have a separate Interrupt Vector in the Interrupt Vectortable. The interrupts have priority in accordance with their Interrupt Vector position. The lower theInterrupt Vector address, the higher the priority.

The I/O memory space contains 64 addresses for CPU peripheral functions as Control Registers, SPI,and other I/O functions. The I/O Memory can be accessed directly, or as the Data Space locationsfollowing those of the Register File, 0x20 - 0x5F. In addition, this device has Extended I/O space from0x60 - 0xFF in SRAM where only the ST/STS/STD and LD/LDS/LDD instructions can be used.

11.2. ALU Arithmetic Logic UnitThe high-performance AVR ALU operates in direct connection with all the 32 general purpose workingregisters. Within a single clock cycle, arithmetic operations between general purpose registers or betweena register and an immediate are executed. The ALU operations are divided into three main categories arithmetic, logical, and bit-functions. Some implementations of the architecture also provide a powerfulmultiplier supporting both signed/unsigned multiplication and fractional format. See Instruction SetSummary section for a detailed description.

Related LinksInstruction Set Summary on page 432

11.3. Status RegisterThe Status Register contains information about the result of the most recently executed arithmeticinstruction. This information can be used for altering program flow in order to perform conditionaloperations. The Status Register is updated after all ALU operations, as specified in the Instruction SetReference. This will in many cases remove the need for using the dedicated compare instructions,resulting in faster and more compact code.

The Status Register is not automatically stored when entering an interrupt routine and restored whenreturning from an interrupt. This must be handled by software.


26

11.3.1. Status RegisterWhen addressing I/O Registers as data space using LD and ST instructions, the provided offset must beused. When using the I/O specific commands IN and OUT, the offset is reduced by 0x20, resulting in anI/O address offset within 0x00 - 0x3F.

Access R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W Reset 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

Bit 7 I:Global Interrupt EnableThe Global Interrupt Enable bit must be set for the interrupts to be enabled. The individual interruptenable control is then performed in separate control registers. If the Global Interrupt Enable Register iscleared, none of the interrupts are enabled independent of the individual interrupt enable settings. The I-bit is cleared by hardware after an interrupt has occurred, and is set by the RETI instruction to enablesubsequent interrupts. The I-bit can also be set and cleared by the application with the SEI and CLIinstructions, as described in the instruction set reference.

Bit 6 T:Copy StorageThe Bit Copy instructions BLD (Bit LoaD) and BST (Bit STore) use the T-bit as source or destination forthe operated bit. A bit from a register in the Register File can be copied into T by the BST instruction, anda bit in T can be copied into a bit in a register in the Register File by the BLD instruction.

Bit 5 H:Half Carry FlagThe Half Carry Flag H indicates a Half Carry in some arithmetic operations. Half Carry Flag is useful inBCD arithmetic. See the Instruction Set Description for detailed information.

Bit 4 S:Sign Flag, S = N V

The S-bit is always an exclusive or between the Negative Flag N and the Twos Complement OverflowFlag V. See the Instruction Set Description for detailed information.

Bit 3 V:Twos Complement Overflow FlagThe Twos Complement Overflow Flag V supports twos complement arithmetic. See the Instruction SetDescription for detailed information.

Bit 2 N:Negative FlagThe Negative Flag N indicates a negative result in an arithmetic or logic operation. See the Instruction SetDescription for detailed information.

Bit 1 Z:Zero FlagThe Zero Flag Z indicates a zero result in an arithmetic or logic operation. See the Instruction SetDescription for detailed information.


27

Bit 0 C:Carry FlagThe Carry Flag C indicates a carry in an arithmetic or logic operation. See the Instruction Set Descriptionfor detailed information.

11.4. General Purpose Register FileThe Register File is optimized for the AVR Enhanced RISC instruction set. In order to achieve therequired performance and flexibility, the following input/output schemes are supported by the RegisterFile:

One 8-bit output operand and one 8-bit result input Two 8-bit output operands and one 8-bit result input Two 8-bit output operands and one 16-bit result input One 16-bit output operand and one 16-bit result input

Most of the instructions operating on the Register File have direct access to all registers, and most ofthem are single cycle instructions. As shown in the figure, each register is also assigned a data memoryaddress, mapping them directly into the first 32 locations of the user Data Space. Although not beingphysically implemented as SRAM locations, this memory organization provides great flexibility in accessof the registers, as the X-, Y-, and Z-pointer registers can be set to index any register in the file.

11.4.1. The X-register, Y-register, and Z-registerThe registers R26...R31 have some added functions to their general purpose usage. These registers are16-bit address pointers for indirect addressing of the data space. The three indirect address registers X,Y, and Z are defined as described in the figure.

In the different addressing modes these address registers have functions as fixed displacement,automatic increment, and automatic decrement (see the instruction set reference for details).

11.5. Stack PointerThe Stack is mainly used for storing temporary data, for storing local variables and for storing returnaddresses after interrupts and subroutine calls. The Stack is implemented as growing from higher tolower memory locations. The Stack Pointer Register always points to the top of the Stack.

The Stack Pointer points to the data SRAM Stack area where the Subroutine and Interrupt Stacks arelocated. A Stack PUSH command will decrease the Stack Pointer. The Stack in the data SRAM must bedefined by the program before any subroutine calls are executed or interrupts are enabled. Initial StackPointer value equals the last address of the internal SRAM and the Stack Pointer must be set to pointabove start of the SRAM. See the table for Stack Pointer details.

Table 11-1.Stack Pointer Instructions

Instruction Stack pointer Description

PUSH Decremented by 1 Data is pushed onto the stack

CALL

ICALL

RCALL

Decremented by 2 Return address is pushed onto the stack with a subroutine call orinterrupt

POP Incremented by 1 Data is popped from the stack

RET

RETI

Incremented by 2 Return address is popped from the stack with return from subroutine orreturn from interrupt

The AVR Stack Pointer is implemented as two 8-bit registers in the I/O space. The number of bits actuallyused is implementation dependent. Note that the data space in some implementations of the AVRarchitecture is so small that only SPL is needed. In this case, the SPH Register will not be present.


29

11.5.1. Stack Pointer Register High byteWhen using the I/O specific commands IN and OUT, the I/O addresses 0x00 - 0x3F must be used. Whenaddressing I/O Registers as data space using LD and ST instructions, 0x20 must be added to these offsetaddresses.

11.6. Instruction Execution TimingThis section describes the general access timing concepts for instruction execution. The AVR CPU isdriven by the CPU clock clkCPU, directly generated from the selected clock source for the chip. No internalclock division is used. The Figure below shows the parallel instruction fetches and instruction executionsenabled by the Harvard architecture and the fast-access Register File concept. This is the basic pipeliningconcept to obtain up to 1 MIPS per MHz with the corresponding unique results for functions per cost,functions per clocks, and functions per power-unit.

11.7. Reset and Interrupt HandlingThe AVR provides several different interrupt sources. These interrupts and the separate Reset Vectoreach have a separate program vector in the program memory space. All interrupts are assigned individualenable bits which must be written logic one together with the Global Interrupt Enable bit in the StatusRegister in order to enable the interrupt. Depending on the Program Counter value, interrupts may beautomatically disabled when Boot Lock bits BLB02 or BLB12 are programmed. This feature improvessoftware security.

The lowest addresses in the program memory space are by default defined as the Reset and InterruptVectors. They have determined priority levels: The lower the address the higher is the priority level.RESET has the highest priority, and next is INT0 the External Interrupt Request 0. The Interrupt Vectorscan be moved to the start of the Boot Flash section by setting the IVSEL bit in the MCU Control Register(MCUCR). The Reset Vector can also be moved to the start of the Boot Flash section by programmingthe BOOTRST Fuse.

When an interrupt occurs, the Global Interrupt Enable I-bit is cleared and all interrupts are disabled. Theuser software can write logic one to the I-bit to enable nested interrupts. All enabled interrupts can theninterrupt the current interrupt routine. The I-bit is automatically set when a Return from Interruptinstruction RETI is executed.

There are basically two types of interrupts:

The first type is triggered by an event that sets the Interrupt Flag. For these interrupts, the ProgramCounter is vectored to the actual Interrupt Vector in order to execute the interrupt handling routine, andhardware clears the corresponding Interrupt Flag. Interrupt Flags can also be cleared by writing a logicone to the flag bit position(s) to be cleared. If an interrupt condition occurs while the correspondinginterrupt enable bit is cleared, the Interrupt Flag will be set and remembered until the interrupt is enabled,or the flag is cleared by software. Similarly, if one or more interrupt conditions occur while the GlobalInterrupt Enable bit is cleared, the corresponding Interrupt Flag(s) will be set and remembered until theGlobal Interrupt Enable bit is set, and will then be executed by order of priority.

The second type of interrupts will trigger as long as the interrupt condition is present. These interrupts donot necessarily have Interrupt Flags. If the interrupt condition disappears before the interrupt is enabled,the interrupt will not be triggered. When the AVR exits from an interrupt, it will always return to the mainprogram and execute one more instruction before any pending interrupt is served.

The Status Register is not automatically stored when entering an interrupt routine, nor restored whenreturning from an interrupt routine. This must be handled by software.

When using the CLI instruction to disable interrupts, the interrupts will be immediately disabled. Nointerrupt will be executed after the CLI instruction, even if it occurs simultaneously with the CLI instruction.

12. AVR Memories

12.1. OverviewThis section describes the different memory types in the device. The AVR architecture has two mainmemory spaces, the Data Memory and the Program Memory space. In addition, the device features anEEPROM Memory for data storage. All memory spaces are linear and regular.

12.2. In-System Reprogrammable Flash Program MemoryThe ATmega328/P contains 32Kbytes On-chip In-System Reprogrammable Flash memory for programstorage. Since all AVR instructions are 16 or 32 bits wide, the Flash is organized as 16K x 16. Forsoftware security, the Flash Program memory space is divided into two sections - Boot Loader Sectionand Application Program Section in the device .

The Flash memory has an endurance of at least 10,000 write/erase cycles. The ATmega328/P ProgramCounter (PC) is 14 bits wide, thus addressing the 16K program memory locations. The operation of BootProgram section and associated Boot Lock bits for software protection are described in detail in BootLoader Support Read-While-Write Self-Programming. Refer to Memory Programming for the descriptionon Flash data serial downloading using the SPI pins.

Constant tables can be allocated within the entire program memory address space, using the LoadProgram Memory (LPM) instruction.

Timing diagrams for instruction fetch and execution are presented in Instruction Exectution Timing.

12.3. SRAM Data MemoryThe following figure shows how the device SRAM Memory is organized.

The device is a complex microcontroller with more peripheral units than can be supported within the 64locations reserved in the Opcode for the IN and OUT instructions. For the Extended I/O space from 0x60- 0xFF in SRAM, only the ST/STS/STD and LD/LDS/LDD instructions can be used.

The lower 2303 data memory locations address both the Register File, the I/O memory, Extended I/Omemory, and the internal data SRAM. The first 32 locations address the Register File, the next 64location the standard I/O memory, then 160 locations of Extended I/O memory, and the next 2K locationsaddress the internal data SRAM.

The five different addressing modes for the data memory cover: Direct

The direct addressing reaches the entire data space. Indirect with Displacement

The Indirect with Displacement mode reaches 63 address locations from the base addressgiven by the Y- or Z-register.

Indirect In the Register File, registers R26 to R31 feature the indirect addressing pointer registers.

Indirect with Pre-decrement The address registers X, Y, and Z are decremented.

Indirect with Post-increment The address registers X, Y, and Z are incremented.

The 32 general purpose working registers, 64 I/O Registers, 160 Extended I/O Registers, and the 2Kbytes of internal data SRAM in the device are all accessible through all these addressing modes.

12.4. EEPROM Data MemoryThe ATmega328/P contains 1K bytes of data EEPROM memory. It is organized as a separate dataspace, in which single bytes can be read and written. The EEPROM has an endurance of at least100,000 write/erase cycles. The access between the EEPROM and the CPU is described in the following,specifying the EEPROM Address Registers, the EEPROM Data Register, and the EEPROM ControlRegister.

See the related links for a detailed description on EEPROM Programming in SPI or Parallel Programmingmode.

12.4.1. EEPROM Read/Write AccessThe EEPROM Access Registers are accessible in the I/O space.

The write access time for the EEPROM is given in Table 12-2. A self-timing function, however, lets theuser software detect when the next byte can be written. If the user code contains instructions that writethe EEPROM, some precautions must be taken. In heavily filtered power supplies, VCC is likely to rise orfall slowly on power-up/down. This causes the device for some period of time to run at a voltage lowerthan specified as minimum for the clock frequency used. Please refer to Preventing EEPROM Corruptionfor details on how to avoid problems in these situations.

In order to prevent unintentional EEPROM writes, a specific write procedure must be followed. Refer tothe description of the EEPROM Control Register for details on this.

When the EEPROM is read, the CPU is halted for four clock cycles before the next instruction isexecuted. When the EEPROM is written, the CPU is halted for two clock cycles before the next instructionis executed.

12.4.2. Preventing EEPROM CorruptionDuring periods of low VCC, the EEPROM data can be corrupted because the supply voltage is too low forthe CPU and the EEPROM to operate properly. These issues are the same as for board level systemsusing EEPROM, and the same design solutions should be applied.

An EEPROM data corruption can be caused by two situations when the voltage is too low. First, a regularwrite sequence to the EEPROM requires a minimum voltage to operate correctly. Secondly, the CPU itselfcan execute instructions incorrectly, if the supply voltage is too low.

EEPROM data corruption can easily be avoided by following this design recommendation:

Keep the AVR RESET active (low) during periods of insufficient power supply voltage. This can be doneby enabling the internal Brown-out Detector (BOD). If the detection level of the internal BOD does notmatch the needed detection level, an external low VCC reset Protection circuit can be used. If a resetoccurs while a write operation is in progress, the write operation will be completed provided that thepower supply voltage is sufficient.

12.5. I/O MemoryThe I/O space definition of the device is shown in the Register Summary.

All device I/Os and peripherals are placed in the I/O space. All I/O locations may be accessed by theLD/LDS/LDD and ST/STS/STD instructions, transferring data between the 32 general purpose workingregisters and the I/O space. I/O Registers within the address range 0x00-0x1F are directly bit-accessibleusing the SBI and CBI instructions. In these registers, the value of single bits can be checked by usingthe SBIS and SBIC instructions.

When using the I/O specific commands IN and OUT, the I/O addresses 0x00-0x3F must be used. Whenaddressing I/O Registers as data space using LD and ST instructions, 0x20 must be added to theseaddresses. The device is a complex microcontroller with more peripheral units than can be supportedwithin the 64 location reserved in Opcode for the IN and OUT instructions. For the Extended I/O spacefrom 0x60..0xFF in SRAM, only the ST/STS/STD and LD/LDS/LDD instructions can be used.

For compatibility with future devices, reserved bits should be written to zero if accessed. Reserved I/Omemory addresses should never be written.

Some of the Status Flags are cleared by writing a '1' to them; this is described in the flag descriptions.Note that, unlike most other AVRs, the CBI and SBI instructions will only operate on the specified bit, andcan therefore be used on registers containing such Status Flags. The CBI and SBI instructions work withregisters 0x00-0x1F only.

The I/O and Peripherals Control Registers are explained in later sections.

12.5.1. General Purpose I/O RegistersThe device contains three General Purpose I/O Registers, General Purpose I/O Register 0/1/2 (GPIOR0/1/2). These registers can be used for storing any information, and they are particularly useful for storingglobal variables and Status Flags. General Purpose I/O Registers within the address range 0x00 - 0x1Fare directly bit-accessible using the SBI, CBI, SBIS, and SBIC instructions.

Bits 5:4 EEPMn:EEPROM Programming Mode Bits [n = 1:0]The EEPROM Programming mode bit setting defines which programming action that will be triggeredwhen writing EEPE. It is possible to program data in one atomic operation (erase the old value andprogram the new value) or to split the Erase and Write operations in two different operations. TheProgramming times for the different modes are shown in the table below. While EEPE is set, any write toEEPMn will be ignored. During reset, the EEPMn bits will be reset to 0b00 unless the EEPROM is busyprogramming.

Bit 3 EERIE:EEPROM Ready Interrupt EnableWriting EERIE to one enables the EEPROM Ready Interrupt if the I bit in SREG is set. Writing EERIE tozero disables the interrupt. The EEPROM Ready interrupt generates a constant interrupt when EEPE iscleared. The interrupt will not be generated during EEPROM write or SPM.

Bit 2 EEMPE:EEPROM Master Write EnableThe EEMPE bit determines whether writing EEPE to '1' causes the EEPROM to be written.When EEMPE is '1', setting EEPE within four clock cycles will write data to the EEPROM at the selectedaddress.

If EEMPE is zero, setting EEPE will have no effect. When EEMPE has been written to '1' by software,hardware clears the bit to zero after four clock cycles. See the description of the EEPE bit for anEEPROM write procedure.

Bit 1 EEPE:EEPROM Write EnableThe EEPROM Write Enable Signal EEPE is the write strobe to the EEPROM. When address and data arecorrectly set up, the EEPE bit must be written to '1' to write the value into the EEPROM. The EEMPE bit


42

must be written to '1' before EEPE is written to '1', otherwise no EEPROM write takes place. The followingprocedure should be followed when writing the EEPROM (the order of steps 3 and 4 is not essential):

1. Wait until EEPE becomes zero.2. Wait until SPMEN in SPMCSR becomes zero.3. Write new EEPROM address to EEAR (optional).4. Write new EEPROM data to EEDR (optional).5. Write a '1' to the EEMPE bit while writing a zero to EEPE in EECR.6. Within four clock cycles after setting EEMPE, write a '1' to EEPE.

The EEPROM can not be programmed during a CPU write to the Flash memory. The software mustcheck that the Flash programming is completed before initiating a new EEPROM write. Step 2 is onlyrelevant if the software contains a Boot Loader allowing the CPU to program the Flash. If the Flash isnever being updated by the CPU, step 2 can be omitted.

Caution:An interrupt between step 5 and step 6 will make the write cycle fail, since the EEPROM MasterWrite Enable will time-out. If an interrupt routine accessing the EEPROM is interrupting anotherEEPROM access, the EEAR or EEDR Register will be modified, causing the interruptedEEPROM access to fail. It is recommended to have the Global Interrupt Flag cleared during allthe steps to avoid these problems.

When the write access time has elapsed, the EEPE bit is cleared by hardware. The usersoftware can poll this bit and wait for a zero before writing the next byte. When EEPE has beenset, the CPU is halted for two cycles before the next instruction i
