Atmel Microcontroller

The Atmel ATmega168A, offered by us, is a 16K 8-bit microcontroller based on the AVR architecture and replaces the now obsolete ATmega168. Many instructions are executed in a single clock cycle providing a throughput of almost 20 MIPS at 20MHz. The Atmel Microcontroller comes in a PDIP 28 pin package and is suitable for use on our 28 pin AVR Development Board.

Features include :

• High performance & low power design
• 8-Bit Microcontroller Atmel® AVR® advanced RISC architecture
• 131 Instructions most of which are executed in a single clock cycle
• Up to 20 MIPS throughput at 20 MHz
• 32 x 8 working registers
• 2 cycle multiplier

Memory Includes :

• 16KB of programmable FLASH
• 512 Bytes of EEPROM
• 1KB SRAM
• 10,000 Write and Erase Cycles for Flash and 100,000 for EEPROM
• Data retention for 20 years at 85^oC and 100 years at 25^oC
• Optional boot loader with lock bits
• In System Programming (ISP) by via boot loader
• True Read-While-Write operation
• Programming lock available for software security
