single clock cycle, the atmega16 achieves through puts approaching 1 mips per mhz allowing the system designer to optimize power consumption versus processing speed. block diagram figure 2. block

pb0 - pb7 avr cpu twi avcc internal calibrated oscillator 4 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 the avr core combines a rich instruction set with 32 general purpose working registers. all the 32 registers are directly connected to the arithmetic logic unit (alu), allowing two independent registers to be accessed in one single instruction executed in one clock cycle. the resulting architecture is more code efficient while achieving throughputs up to ten times faster than conventional cisc microcontrollers. the atmega16 provides the following features: 16k bytes of in-system programmable flash program memory with read-while-write capabilities, 512 bytes eeprom, 1k byte sram, 32 general purpose i/o lines, 32 general purpose working registers, a jtag interface for boundary-scan, on-chip debugging support and programming, three flexible timer/counters with compare modes, internal and external interrupts, a serial programmable usart, a byte oriented two-wire serial interface, an 8-channel, 10-bit adc with optional differential input stage with programmable gain (tqfp package only), a programmable watchdog timer with internal oscillator, an spi serial port, and six software selectable power saving modes. the idle mode stops the cpu while allowing the usart, two-wire interface, a/d converter, sram, timer/counters, spi port, and interrupt system to continue functioning. the power-down mode saves the register con- tents but freezes the oscillator, disabling all other chip functions until the next external interrupt or hardware reset. in power-save mode, the asynchronous timer continues to run, allowing the user to maintain a timer base while the rest of the device is sleeping. the adc noise reduction mode stops the cpu and all i/o modules except asynchro- nous timer and adc, to minimize switching noise during adc conversions. in standby mode, the crystal/resonator oscillator is running while the rest of the device is sleeping. this allows very fast start-up combined with low-power consumption. in extended standby mode, both the main oscillator and the asynchronous timer continue to run. the device is manufactured using atmel?s high density nonvolatile memory technology. the on-chip isp flash allows the program memory to be reprogrammed in-system through an spi serial interface, by a conv entional 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 flash memory. soft- ware in the boot flash section will continue to run while the application flash section is updated, providing true read-while-write operation. by combining an 8-bit risc cpu with in-system self-programmable flash on a monolithic chip, the atmel atmega16 is a powerful microcontroller that provides a highly-flexible and cost-effective solution to many embedded control applications. the atmega16 avr is supported with a full suite of program and system development tools including: c compilers, macro assemblers, program debugger/simulators, in-circuit emulators, and evaluation kits. pin descriptions vcc digital supply voltage. gnd ground. port a (pa7..pa0) port a serves as the analog inputs to the a/d converter. port a also serves as an 8-bit bi-directional i/o port, if the a/d converter is not used. port pins can provide internal pull-up resistors (selected for each bit). the port a output buffers have symmetrical drive characteristics with both high sink and source capability. when pins pa0 to pa7 are used as inputs and are

2466e?avr?10/02 avr cpu core introduction this section discusses the avr core architecture in general. the main function of the cpu core is to ensure correct program ex ecution. the cpu must therefore be able to access memories, perform calculations, control peripherals, and handle interrupts. architectural overview figure 3. block diagram of the avr mcu architecture in order to maximize performance and parallelism, the avr uses a harvard architecture ? with separate memories and buses for program and data. instructions in the program memory are executed with a single level pipelining. while one instruction is being exe- cuted, the next instruction is pre-fetched from the program memory. this concept enables instructions to be executed in every clock cycle. the program memory is in- system reprogrammable flash memory. the fast-access register file contains 32 x 8-bit general purpose working registers with a single clock cycle access time. this allows single-cycle arithmetic logic unit (alu) operation. in a typical alu operation, two operands are output from the register file, the operation is executed, and the result is stored 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 space addressing ? enabling efficient address calculations. one of the these address pointers can also be used as an address pointer for look up tables in flash pro- gram memory. these added function registers are the 16-bit x-, y-, and z-register, described later in this section. the alu supports arithmetic and logic operations between registers or between a con- stant and a register. single register operations can also be executed in the alu. after flash program memory

reflect information about the result of the operation. program flow is provided by conditional and unconditional jump and call instructions, able to directly address the whole address space. most avr instructions have a single 16-bit word format. every program memory address contains a 16- or 32-bit instruction. program flash memory space is divided in two sections, the boot program section and the application program section. both sect ions have dedicated lock bits for write and read/write protection. the spm instruction 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 only limited by the total sram size and the usage of the sram. all user programs must initialize the sp in the reset routine (before subroutines or interrupts are executed). the stack pointer sp is read/write accessible in the i/o space. the data sram can easily be accessed through the five different addressing modes 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 interrupt enable bit in the status register. all interrupts have a separate interrupt vector in the interrupt vector table. the interrupts have priority in accordance with their interrupt vector position. the lower the interrupt 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 locations following those of the register file, $20 - $5f. alu ? arithmetic logic unit the high-performance avr alu operates in direct connection with all the 32 general purpose working registers. within a single clock cycle, arithmetic operations between general purpose registers or between a register and an immediate are executed. the alu operations are divided into three main categories ? arithmetic, logical, and bit-func- tions. some implementations of the archit ecture also provide a powerful multiplier supporting both signed/unsigned mult iplication and fractional format. see the ?instruc- tion set? section for a detailed description. status register the status register contains information about the result of the most recently executed arithmetic instruction. this information can be used for altering program flow in order to perform conditional operations. note that the status register is updated after all alu operations, as specified in the instruction set reference. 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 when returning from an interrupt. this must be handled by software. the avr status register ? sreg ? is defined as: bit 76543210 i t h s v n z c sreg read/write r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w initial value00000000 8 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 bit 7 ? i: global interrupt enable the global interrupt enable bit must be set for the interrupts to be enabled. the individ- ual interrupt enable control is then performed in separate control registers. if the global interrupt enable register is cleared, 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 enable subsequent interrupts. the i- bit can also be set and cleared by the application with the sei and cli instructions, as described in the instruction set reference. bit 6 ? t: bit copy storage the bit copy instructions bld (bit load) and bst (bit store) use the t-bit as source or destination for the operated bit. a bit from a r egister in the register file can be copied into t by the bst instruction, and a 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 flag the half carry flag h indicates a half carry in some arithmetic operations. half carry is useful in bcd arithmetic. see the ?instruction set description? for detailed information. bit 4 ? s: sign bit, s = n v the s-bit is always an exclusive or between the negative flag n and the two?s comple- ment overflow flag v. see the ?instruction set description? for detailed information. bit 3 ? v: two?s complement overflow flag the two?s complement overflow flag v supports two?s complement arithmetics. see the ?instruction set description? for detailed information. bit 2 ? n: negative flag the negative flag n indicates a negative result in an arithmetic or logic operation. see the ?instruction set description? for detailed information. bit 1 ? z: zero flag the zero flag z indicates a zero result in an arithmetic or logic operation. see the ?instruction set description? for detailed information. bit 0 ? c: carry flag the carry flag c indicates a carry in an arithmetic or logic operation. see the ?instruc- tion set description? for detailed information. general purpose register file the register file is optimized for the avr enhanced risc instruction set. in order to achieve the required performance and flexibility, the following input/output schemes are supported by the register file: 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 figure 4 shows the structure of the 32 general purpose working registers in the cpu. 9 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 4. avr cpu general purpose working registers most of the instructions operating on the register file have direct access to all registers, and most of them are single cycle instructions. as shown in figure 4, each register is also assigned a data memory address, mapping them directly into the first 32 locations of the user data space. although not being phys- ically implemented as sram locations, this memory organization provides great flexibility in access of the registers, as the x-, y-, and z-pointer registers can be set to index any register in the file. the x-register, y-register and z-register the registers r26..r31 have some added fu nctions to their general purpose usage. these registers are 16-bit address pointers fo r indirect addressing of the data space. the three indirect address registers x, y, and z are defined as described in figure 5. figure 5. the x-, y-, and z-registers in the different addressing modes these addr ess registers have functions as fixed dis- placement, automatic increment, and automatic decrement (see the instruction set reference for details). 7 0 addr. r0 $00 r1 $01 r2 $02 ? r13 $0d general r14 $0e purpose r15 $0f working r16

is mainly used for storing temporary data, for storing local variables and for storing return addresses after interrupts and subroutine calls. the stack pointer regis- ter always points to the top of the stack. note that the stack is implemented as growing from higher memory locations to lower memory locations. this implies that a stack push command decreases the stack pointer. the stack pointer points to the data sram stack area where the subroutine and inter- rupt stacks are located. this stack space in the data sram must be defined by the program before any subroutine calls are executed or interrupts are enabled. the stack pointer must be set to point above $60. the stack pointer is decremented by one when data is pushed onto the stack with the push instruction, and it is decremented by two when the return address is pushed onto the stack with subroutine call or interrupt. the stack pointer is incremented by one when data is popped from the stack with the pop instruction, and it is incremented by two when data is popped from the stack with return from subroutine ret or return from interrupt reti. the avr stack pointer is implemented as two 8-bit registers in the i/o space. the num- ber of bits actually used is implementation dependent. note that the data space in some implementations of the avr architecture is so small that only spl is needed. in this case, the sph register will not be present. bit 151413121110 9 8 sp15 sp14 sp13 sp12 sp11 sp10 sp9 sp8 sph sp7 sp6 sp5 sp4 sp3 sp2 sp1 sp0 spl 76543210 read/write r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w

driven by the cpu clock clk cpu , directly generated from the selected clock source for the chip. no internal clock division is used. figure 6 shows the parallel instruction fetches and instruction executions enabled by the harvard architecture and the fast-access register file concept. this is the basic pipelin- ing concept 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. figure 6. the parallel instruction fetches and instruction executions figure 7 shows the internal timing concept for the register file. in a single clock cycle an alu operation using two register operands is executed, and the result is stored back to the destination register. figure 7. single cycle alu operation reset and interrupt handling the avr provides several different interrupt sources. these interrupts and the separate reset vector each have a separate program vector in the program memory space. all interrupts are assigned indivi dual enable bits which must be written logic one together with the global interrupt enable bit in the status register in order to enable the interrupt. depending on the program counter value, interrupts may be automatically disabled when boot lock bits blb02 or blb12 are programmed. this feature improves software security. see the section ?memory programming? on page 254 for details. the lowest addresses in the program memory space are by default defined as the reset and interrupt vectors. the complete list of vectors is shown in ?interrupts? on page 42. the list also determines the priority levels of the different interrupts. the lower the address the higher is the priority level. reset has the highest priority, and next is int0 clk 1st instruction fetch 1st instruction execute 2nd instruction fetch 2nd instruction execute 3rd instruction fetch 3rd instruction execute 4th instruction fetch t1 t2 t3 t4 cpu total execution time register operands fetch alu operation execute result write back t1 t2 t3 t4 clk cpu 12 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 ? the external interrupt request 0. the interrupt vectors can be moved to the start of the boot flash section by setting the ivsel bit in the general interrupt control register (gicr). refer to ?interrupts? on page 42 for more information. the reset vector can also be moved to the start of the boot flash section by programming the bootrst fuse, see ?boot loader support ? read-while-write self-programming? on page 241. when an interrupt occurs, the global interrupt enable i-bit is cleared and all interrupts are disabled. the user software can write logic one to the i-bit to enable nested inter- rupts. all enabled interrupts can then interrupt the current interrupt routine. the i-bit is automatically set when a return from interrupt instruction ? 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 program counter is vectored to the actual interrupt vector in order to execute the interrupt handling routine, and hardware clears the corresponding interrupt flag. interrupt flags can also be cleared by writing a logic one to the flag bit position(s) to be cleared. if an interrupt condition occurs while the corresponding interrupt enable bit is cleared, the interrupt flag will be set and remem- bered until the interrupt is enabled, or the flag is cleared by software. similarly, if one or more interrupt conditions occur while the global interrupt enable bit is cleared, the cor- responding interrupt flag(s) will be set and remembered until the global 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 do not necessarily have interrupt flags. if the interrupt condition disap- pears before the interrupt is enabled, the interrupt will not be triggered. when the avr exits from an interrupt, it will always return to the main program and exe- cute one more instruction before any pending interrupt is served. note that the status register is not automatically stored when entering an interrupt rou- tine, nor restored when returning from an interrupt routine. this must be handled by software. when using the cli instruction to disable in terrupts, the interrupts will be immediately disabled. no interrupt will be executed after the cli instruction, even if it occurs simulta- neously with the cli instruction. the following example shows how this can be used to avoid interrupts during the timed eeprom write sequence. assembly code example in r16, sreg ; store sreg value cli ; disable interrupts during timed sequence sbi eecr, eemwe ; start eeprom write sbi eecr, eewe out sreg, r16 ; restore sreg value (i-bit) c code example char csreg; csreg = sreg; /* store sreg value */ /* disable interrupts during timed sequence */ _cli(); eecr |= (1< 14 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 avr atmega16 memories this section describes the different memories in the atmega16. the avr architecture has two main memory spaces, the data memory and the program memory space. in addition, the atmega16 features an eeprom memory for data storage. all three mem- ory spaces are linear and regular. in-system reprogrammable flash program memory the atmega16 contains 16k bytes on-chip in-system reprogrammable flash memory for program storage. since all avr instructions are 16 or 32 bits wide, the flash is orga- nized as 8k x 16. for software security, the flash program memory space is divided into two sections, boot program section and application program section. the flash memory has an endurance of at least 10,000 write/erase cycles. the atmega16 program counter (pc) is 13 bits wide, thus addressing the 8k program memory locations. the operation of boot program section and associated boot lock bits for software protection are described in detail in ?boot loader support ? read- while-write self-programming? on page 241. ?memory programming? on page 254 con- tains a detailed description on flash data serial downloading using the spi pins or the jtag interface. constant tables can be allocated within the entire program memory address space (see the lpm ? load program memory instruction description). timing diagrams for instruction fetch and execution are presented in ?instruction execu- tion timing? on page 11. figure 8. program memory map $0000 $1fff application flash section boot flash section 15 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 sram data memory figure 9 shows how the atmega16 sram memory is organized. the lower 1120 data memory locations address the register file, the i/o memory, and the internal data sram. the first 96 locations address the register file and i/o memory, and the next 1024 locations address the internal data sram. the five different addressing modes for the data memory cover: direct, indirect with dis- placement, indirect, indirect with pre-decrement, and indirect with post-increment. in the register file, registers r26 to r31 feature the indirect addressing pointer registers. the direct addressing reaches the entire data space. the indirect with displacement mode reaches 63 address locations from the base address given by the y- or z-register. when using register indirect addressing modes with automatic pre-decrement and post- increment, the address registers x, y, and z are decremented or incremented. the 32 general purpose working registers, 64 i/o registers, and the 1024 bytes of inter- nal data sram in the atmega16 are all accessible through all these addressing modes. the register file is described in ?general purpose register file? on page 8. figure 9. data memory map

performed in two clk cpu cycles as described in figure 10. figure 10. on-chip data sram access cycles eeprom data memory the atmega16 contains 512 bytes of data eeprom memory. it is organized as a sep- arate data space, in which single bytes can be read and written. the eeprom has an endurance of at least 100,000 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 control register. for a detailed description of spi and jtag data downloading to the eeprom, see page 268 and page 272, respectively. eeprom read/write access the eeprom access registers are accessible in the i/o space. the write access time for the eeprom is given in table 1. a self-timing function, how- ever, lets the user software detect when the next byte can be writt en. if the user code contains instructions that write the eepr om, some precautions must be taken. in heavily filtered power supplies, v cc is likely to rise or fall slowly on power-up/down. this causes the device for some period of time to run at a voltage lower than specified as minimum for the clock frequency used. see ?preventing eeprom corruption? on page 20 for details on how to avoid problems in these situations. in order to prevent unintentional eeprom writes, a specific write procedure must be fol- lowed.

write enable signal eewe is the write strobe to the eeprom. when address and data are correctly set up, the eewe bit must be written to one to write the value into the eeprom. the eemwe bit must be written to one before a logical one is written to eewe, otherwise no eeprom wr ite takes place. the following procedure should be followed when writing the eepr om (the order of steps 3 and 4 is not essential): 1. wait until eewe becomes zero. 2. wait until spmen in spmcr becomes zero. 3. write new eeprom address to eear (optional). 4. write new eeprom data to eedr (optional). 5. write a logical one to the eemwe bit while writing a zero to eewe in eecr. 6. within four clock cycles after setting eemwe, write a logical one to eewe. the eeprom can not be programmed during a cpu write to the flash memory. the software must check that the flash programming is completed before initiating a new eeprom write. step 2 is only relevant if the software contains a boot loader allowing the cpu to program the flash. if the flash is never being updated by the cpu, step 2 can be omitted. see ?boot loader support ? read-while-write self-programming? on page 241 for details about boot programming. caution: an interrupt between step 5 and step 6 will make the write cycle fail, since the eeprom master write enable will time-out. if an interrupt routine accessing the eeprom is interrupting another eeprom access, the eear or eedr register will be modified, causing the interrupted eeprom access to fail. it is recommended to have the global interrupt flag cleared during all the steps to avoid these problems. when the write access time has elapsed, the eewe bit is cleared by hardware. the user software can poll this bit and wait for a zero before writing the next byte. when eewe has been set, the cpu is halted for two cycles before the next instruction is executed. bit 0 ? eere: eeprom read enable the eeprom read enable signal ? eere ? is the read strobe to the eeprom. when the correct address is set up in the eear register, the eere bit must be written to a logic one to trigger the eeprom read. the eeprom read access takes one instruction, and the requested data is available immediately. when the eeprom is read, the cpu is halted for four cycles before the next instruction is executed. the user should poll the eewe bit before starting the read operation. if a write operation is in progress, it is neither possible to read the eeprom, nor to change the eear register. the calibrated oscillator is used to time the eeprom accesses. table 1 lists the typical programming time for eeprom access from the cpu. table 1. eeprom programming time symbol number of calibrated rc oscillator cycles (1) typ programming time eeprom write (from cpu) 8448 8.5 ms 19

assume that interrupts are controlled (for example by dis- abling interrupts globally) so that no interrupts will occur during execution of these functions. the examples also assume that no flash boot

all of the clocks need not be active at a given time. in order to reduce power consumption, the clocks to modules not being used can be halted by using different sleep modes, as described in ?power management and sleep modes? on page 30. the clock systems are detailed figure 11. figure 11. clock distribution cpu clock ? clk cpu the cpu clock is routed to parts of the system concerned with operation of the avr core. examples of such modules are the general purpose register file, the status reg- ister and the data memory holding the stack pointer. halting the cpu clock inhibits the core from performing general operations and calculations. i/o clock ? clk i/o the i/o clock is used by the majority of the i/o modules, like timer/counters, spi, and usart. the i/o clock is also used by the external interrupt module, but note that some external interrupts are detected by asynchronous logic, allowing such interrupts to be detected even if the i/o clock is halted. also note that address recognition in the twi module is carried out asynchronously when clk i/o is halted, enabling twi address recep- tion in all sleep modes. flash clock ? clk flash the flash clock controls operation of the flash interface. the flash clock is usually active simultaneously with the cpu clock. general i/o modules asynchronous timer/counter adc cpu core ram clk i/o clk asy avr clock control unit clk cpu flash and eeprom clk flash clk adc source clock watchdog timer watchdog oscillator reset logic clock multiplexer watchdog clock calibrated rc oscillator timer/counter oscillator crystal oscillator low-frequency crystal oscillator external rc oscillator external clock 23 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 asynchronous timer clock ? clk asy the asynchronous timer clock allows the asynchronous timer/counter to be clocked directly from an external 32 khz clock crystal. the dedicated clock domain allows using this timer/counter as a real-time counter even when the device is in sleep mode. adc clock ? clk adc the adc is provided with a dedicated cloc k domain. this allows halting the cpu and i/o clocks in order to reduce noise generated by digital circuitry. this gives more accu- rate adc conversion results. clock sources the device has the following clock source opt ions, selectable by flash fuse bits as shown below. the clock from the selected source is input to the avr clock generator, and routed to the appropriate modules. note: 1. for all fuses ?1? means unprogrammed while ?0? means programmed. the various choices for each clocking option is given in the following sections. when the cpu wakes up from power-down or power-save, the selected clock source is used to time the start-up, ensuring stable oscillator operation before instruction execution starts. when the cpu starts from reset, there is as an additional delay allowing the power to reach a stable level before commencing normal operation. the watchdog oscillator is used for timing this real-time part of the start-up time. the number of wdt oscillator cycles used for each time-out is shown in table 3. the frequency of the watchdog oscillator is voltage dependent as shown in ?atmega16 typical characteristics ? pre- liminary data? on page 293. the device is shipped with cksel = ?0001? and sut = ?10? (1 mhz internal rc oscillator, slowly rising power). crystal oscillator xtal1 and xtal2 are input and output, respectively, of an inverting amplifier which can be configured for use as an on-chip oscillato r, as shown in figure 12. either a quartz crystal or a ceramic resonator may be used. the ckopt fuse selects between two dif- ferent oscillator amplifier modes. when ckopt is programmed, the oscillator output will oscillate will a full rail-to-rail swing on the output. this mode is suitable when operat- ing in a very noisy environment or when the output from xtal2 drives a second clock buffer. this mode has a wide frequency range. when ckopt is unprogrammed, the oscillator has a smaller output swing. this reduces power consumption considerably. this mode has a limited frequency range and it can not be used to drive other clock buffers. for resonators, the maximum frequency is 8 mhz with ckopt unprogrammed and 16 mhz with ckopt programmed. c1 and c2 should always be equal for both crystals table 2. device clocking options select (1) device clocking option cksel3..0 external crystal/ceramic resonator 1111 - 1010 external low-frequency crystal 1001 external rc oscillator

fuse, the user can enable internal capacitors on xtal1 and xtal2, thereby removing the need for external capacitors. the internal c apacitors have a nominal value of 36 pf. refer to the 32 khz crystal oscillator application note for details on oscillator operation and how to choose appropriate values for c1 and c2. when this oscillator is selected, start- up times are determined by the sut fuses as shown in table 6. note: 1. these options should only be used if frequency stability at start-up is not important for the application. external rc oscillator for timing insensitive applications, the external rc configuration shown in figure 13 can be used. the frequency is roughly estimated by the equation f = 1/(3rc). c should be at least 22 pf. by programming the ckopt fuse, the user can enable

frequencies are nominal values at 5v and 25 c. this clock may be selected as the sys- tem clock by programming the cksel fuses as shown in table 9. if selected, it will operate with no external components. the ckopt fuse should always be unpro- grammed when using this clock option. during reset, hardware loads the calibration byte into the osccal register and thereby automatically calibrates the rc oscillator. at 5v, 25 c and 1.0 mhz oscillator frequency selected, this calibration gives a fre- quency within 1% of the nominal frequency. when this oscillator is used as the chip clock, the watchdog oscillator will still be used for the watchdog timer and for the reset time-out. for more information on the pre-programmed calibration value, see the section ?calibration byte? on page 256.

calibration byte to this address will trim the internal oscillator to remove pro- cess variations from the oscillator frequency. this is done automatically during chip reset. when osccal is zero, the lowest available frequency is chosen. writing non- zero values to this register will increase the frequency of the internal oscillator. writing $ff to the register gives the highest available frequency. the calibrated oscillator is used to time eeprom and flash access. if eeprom or flash is written, do not cali- brate to more than 10% above the nominal frequency. otherwise, the eeprom or flash write may fail. note that the oscillator is intended for calibration to 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, or 8.0 mhz. tuning to other values is not guaranteed, as indicated in table 11. table 10. start-up times

modes sleep modes enable the application to shut down unused modules in the mcu, thereby saving power. the avr provides various sleep modes allowing the user to tailor the power consumption to the application?s requirements. to enter any of the six sleep modes, the se bit in mcucr must be written to logic one and a sleep instruction must be executed. the sm2, sm1, and sm0 bits in the mcucr register select which sleep mode (idle, adc noise reduction, power-down, power-save, standby, or extended standby) will be activated by the sleep instruction. see table 13 for a summary. if an enabled interrupt occurs while the mcu is in a sleep mode, the mcu wakes up. the mcu is then halted for four cycles in addition to the start-up time, it executes the interrupt routine, and resumes execution from the instruc- tion following sleep. the contents of the register file and sram are unaltered when the device wakes up from sleep. if a reset occurs during sleep mode, the mcu wakes up and executes from the reset vector. figure 11 on page 22 presents the different clock systems in the atmega16, and their distribution. the figure is helpful in selecting an appropriate sleep mode. mcu control register ? mcucr the mcu control register contains control bits for power management. bits 7, 5, 4 ? sm2..0: sleep mode select bits 2, 1, and 0 these bits select between the six available sleep modes as shown in table 13. note: 1. standby mode and extended standby mode are only available with external crystals or resonators. bit 6 ? se: sleep enable the se bit must be written to logic one to make the mcu enter the sleep mode when the sleep instruction is executed. to avoid the mcu entering the sleep mode unless it is the programmers purpose, it is recommended to write the sleep enable (se) bit to one just before the execution of the sleep instruction and to clear it immediately after wak- ing up. bit 76543210 sm2 se sm1 sm0 isc11 isc10 isc01 isc00 mcucr read/write r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w

analog comparator, adc, two- wire serial interface, timer/counters, watchdog, and the interrupt system to continue operating. this sleep mode basically halts clk cpu and clk flash , while allowing the other clocks to run. idle mode enables the mcu to wake up from external triggered interrupts as well as internal ones like the timer overflow and usart transmit complete interrupts. if wake-up from the analog comparator interrupt is not required, the analog comparator can be powered down by setting the acd bit in the analog comparator control and sta- tus register ? acsr. this will reduce power consumption in idle mode. if the adc is enabled, a conversion starts automatically when this mode is entered. adc noise reduction mode when the sm2..0 bits are written to 001, the sleep instruction makes the mcu enter adc noise reduction mode, stopping the cpu but allowing the adc, the external inter- rupts, the two-wire serial interface address watch, timer/counter2 and the watchdog to continue operating (if enabled). this sleep mode basically halts clk i/o , clk cpu , and clk- flash , while allowing the other clocks to run. this improves the noise environment for the adc, enabling higher resolution measure- ments. if the adc is enabled, a conversi on starts automatically when this mode is entered. apart form the adc conversion complete interrupt, only an external reset, a watchdog reset, a brown-out reset, a two-wire serial interface address match inter- rupt, a timer/counter2 interrupt, an spm/eeprom ready interrupt, an external level interrupt on int0 or int1, or an external interrupt on int2 can wake up the mcu from adc noise reduction mode. power-down mode when the sm2..0 bits are written to 010, the sleep instruction makes the mcu enter power-down mode. in this mode, the external oscillator is stopped, while the external interrupts, the two-wire serial interface address watch, and the watchdog continue operating (if enabled). only an external reset, a watchdog reset, a brown-out reset, a two-wire serial interface address match interrupt, an external level interrupt on int0 or int1, or an external interrupt on int2 can wake up the mcu. this sleep mode basically halts all generated clocks, allowing operation of asynchronous modules only. note that if a level triggered interrupt is used for wake-up from power-down mode, the changed level must be held for some time to wake up the mcu. refer to ?external inter- rupts? on page 64 for details. when waking up from power-down mode, there is a delay from the wake-up condition occurs until the wake-up becomes effective. this allows the clock to restart and become stable after having been stopped. the wake-up period is defined by the same cksel fuses that define the reset time-out period, as described in ?clock sources? on page 23. power-save mode when the sm2..0 bits are written to 011, the sleep instruction makes the mcu enter power-save mode. this mode is identical to power-down, with one exception: if timer/counter2 is clocked asynchron ously, i.e., the as2 bit in assr is set, timer/counter2 will run during sleep. the device can wake up from either timer over- flow or output compare event from timer/counter2 if the corresponding timer/counter2 interrupt enable bits are set in timsk, and the global interrupt enable bit in sreg is set. if the asynchronous timer is not clock ed asynchronously, power-down mode is rec- ommended instead of power-save mode because the contents of the registers in the 32 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 asynchronous timer should be considered undefined after wake-up in power-save mode if as2 is 0. this sleep mode basically halts all clocks except clk asy , allowing operation only of asyn- chronous modules, including timer/counter2 if clocked asynchronously. standby mode when the sm2..0 bits are 110 and an external crystal/resonator clock option is selected, the sleep instruction makes the mcu enter standby mode. this mode is identical to power-down with the exception that the oscillator is kept running. from standby mode, the device wakes up in six clock cycles. extended standby mode when the sm2..0 bits are 111 and an external crystal/resonator clock option is selected, the sleep instruction makes the mcu enter extended standby mode. this mode is identical to power-save mode with the exception that the oscillator is kept running. from extended standby mode, the device wakes up in six clock cycles.. notes: 1. external crystal or resonator selected as clock source. 2. if as 2 bit in assr is set. 3. only int2 or

several issues to consider when trying to minimize the power consumption in an avr controlled system. in general, sleep modes should be used as much as possi- ble, and the sleep mode should be selected so that as few as possible of the device?s functions are operating. all functions not needed should be dis abled. in particular, the following modules may need special consideration when trying to achieve the lowest possible power consumption. analog to digital converter if enabled, the adc will be enabled in all sleep modes. to save power, the adc should be disabled before entering any sleep mode. when the adc is turned off and on again, the next conversion will be an extended conversion. refer to ?analog to digital con- verter? on page 198 for details on adc operation. analog comparator when entering idle mode, the analog comparator should be disabled if not used. when entering adc noise reduction mode, the analog comparator should be disabled. in the other sleep modes, the analog comparator is automatically disabled. however, if the analog comparator is set up to use the internal voltage reference as input, the analog comparator should be disabled in all sleep modes. otherwise, the internal voltage ref- erence will be enabled, independent of sleep m ode. refer to ?analog comparator? on page 195 for details on how to configure the analog comparator. brown-out detector if the brown-out detector is not needed in the application, this module should be turned off. if the brown-out detector is enabled by the boden fuse, it will be enabled in all sleep modes, and hence, always consume power. in the deeper sleep modes, this will contribute significantly to the total current consumption. refer to ?brown-out detection? on page 37 for details on how to configure the brown-out detector. internal voltage reference the internal voltage reference will be enabled when needed by the brown-out detec- tor, the analog comparator or the adc. if these modules are disabled as described in the sections above, the internal voltage reference will be disabled and it will not be con- suming power. when turned on again, the user must allow the reference to start up before the output is used. if the reference is kept on in sleep mode, the output can be used immediately. refer to ?internal volt age reference? on page 39 for details on the start-up time. watchdog timer if the watchdog timer is not needed in the application, this module should be turned off. if the watchdog timer is enabled, it will be enabled in all sleep modes, and hence, always consume power. in the deeper sleep mo des, this will contribute significantly to the total current consumption. refer to ?watchdog timer? on page 39 for details on how to configure the watchdog timer. port pins when entering a sleep mode, all port pins should be configured to use minimum power. the most important thing is then to ensure that no pins drive resistive loads. in sleep modes where the both the i/o clock (clk i/o ) and the adc clock (clk adc ) are stopped, the input buffers of the device will be disabled. this ensures that no power is consumed by the input logic when not needed. in some cases, the input logic is needed for detecting wake-up conditions, and it will then be enabled. refer to the section ?digital input enable and sleep modes? on page 51 for details on which pins are enabled. if the input buffer is enabled and the input signal is left floating or have an analog signal level close to v cc /2, the input buffer will use excessive power. 34 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 system control and reset resetting the avr during reset, all i/o registers are set to their initial values, and the program starts exe- cution from the reset vector. the instruction placed at the reset vector must be a jmp ? absolute jump ? instruction to the reset handling routine. if the program never enables an interrupt source, the interrupt vectors are not used, and regular program code can be placed at these locations. this is also the case if the reset vector is in the applica- tion section while the interrupt vectors are in the boot section or vice versa. the circuit diagram in figure 15 shows the reset logic. table 15 defines the electrical parameters of the reset circuitry. the i/o ports of the avr are immediately reset to their initial state when a reset source goes active. this does not require any clock source to be running. after all reset sources have gone inactive, a delay counter is invoked, stretching the internal reset. this allows the power to reach a stable level before normal operation starts. the time-out period of the delay counter is defined by the user through the cksel fuses. the different selections for the delay period are presented in ?clock sources? on page 23. reset sources the atmega16 has five sources of reset: power-on reset. the mcu is reset when the supply voltage is below the power-on reset threshold (v pot ). external reset. the mcu is reset when a low level is present on the reset pin for longer than the minimum pulse length. watchdog reset. the mcu is reset when the watchdog timer period expires and the watchdog is enabled. brown-out reset. the mcu is reset when the supply voltage v cc is below the brown-out reset threshold (v bot ) and the brown-out detector is enabled. jtag avr reset. the mcu is reset as long as there is a logic one in the reset register, one of the scan chains of the jtag system. refer to the section ?ieee 1149.1 (jtag) boundary-scan? on page 222 for details. 35 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 15. reset logic notes: 1. the power-on reset will not work unless the supply voltage has been below v pot (falling). 2. v bot may be below nominal minimum operating voltage for some devices. for devices where this is the case, the device is tested down to v cc = v bot during the production test. this guarantees that a brown-out reset will occur before v cc drops to a voltage where correct operation of the microcontroller is no longer guaranteed. the test is performed using bodlevel = 1 for atmega16l and bodlevel = 0 for atmega16. bodlevel = 1 is not applicable for

brown-out reset circuit power-on reset circuit internal reset counter reset 36 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 power-on reset a power-on reset (por) pulse is generated by an on-chip detection circuit. the detec- tion level is defined in table 15. the por is activated whenever v cc is below the detection level. the por circuit can be used to trigger the start-up reset, as well as to detect a failure in supply voltage. a power-on reset (por) circuit ensures that the device is reset from power-on. reach- ing the power-on reset threshold voltage invokes the delay counter, which determines how long the device is kept in reset after v cc rise. the reset signal is activated again, without any delay, when v cc decreases below the detection level. figure 16. mcu start-up, reset tied to v cc . figure 17. mcu start-up, reset extended externally external reset an external reset is generated by a low level on the reset pin. reset pulses longer than the minimum pulse width (see table 15) will generate a reset, even if the clock is not running. shorter pulses are not guaranteed to generate a reset. when the applied signal reaches the reset threshold voltage ? v rst ? on its positive edge, the delay

2466e?avr?10/02 figure 18. external reset during operation brown-out detection atmega16 has an on-chip brown-out detection (bod) circuit for monitoring the v cc level during operation by comparing it to a fixed trigger level. the trigger level for the bod can be selected by the fuse bodlevel to be 2.7v (bodlevel unprogrammed), or 4.0v (bodlevel programmed). the trigger level has a hysteresis to ensure spike free brown-out detection. the hysteresis on the detection level should be interpreted as v bot+ = v bot + v hyst /2 and v bot- = v bot - v hyst /2. the bod circuit can be enabled/disabled by the fuse boden. when the bod is enabled (boden programmed), and v cc decreases to a value below the trigger level (v bot- in figure 19), the brown-out reset is immediately activated. when v cc increases above the trigger level (v bot+ in figure 19), the delay counter starts the mcu after the time-out period t tout has expired. the bod circuit will only detect a drop in v cc if the voltage stays below the trigger level for longer than t bod given in table 15. figure 19. brown-out reset during operation cc v cc reset time-out internal reset v bot- v bot+ t tout 38 atmega16(l)

the jtag instruction avr_reset. this bit is reset by a power-on reset, or by writing a logic zero to the flag. bit 3 ? wdrf: watchdog reset flag this bit is set if a watchdog reset occurs. the bit is reset by a power-on reset, or by writing a logic zero to the flag. bit 2 ? borf: brown-out reset flag this bit is set if a brown-out reset occurs. the bit is reset by a power-on reset, or by writing a

read and then reset the mcucsr as early as possible in the program. if the register is cleared before another reset occurs, the source of the reset can be found by examining the reset flags. ck cc bit

features an internal bandgap reference. this reference is used for brown- out detection, and it can be used as an input to the analog comparator or the adc. the 2.56v reference to the adc is generated from the internal bandgap reference. voltage reference enable signals and start-up time the voltage reference has a start-up time that may influence the way it should be used. the start-up time is given in table 16. to save power, the reference is not always turned on. the reference is on during the following situations: 1. when the bod is enabled (by programming the boden fuse). 2. when the bandgap reference is connected to the analog comparator (by setting the acbg bit in acsr). 3. when the adc is enabled. thus, when the bod is not enabled, after setting the acbg bit or enabling the adc, the user must always allow the reference to start up before the output from the analog com- parator or adc is used. to reduce powe r consumption in power-down mode, the user can avoid the three conditions above to ensure that the reference is turned off before entering power-down mode. watchdog timer the watchdog timer is clocked from a separate on-chip oscillator which runs at 1 mhz. this is the typical value at v cc = 5v. see characterization data for typical values at other v cc levels. by controlling the watchdog timer prescaler, the watchdog reset interval can be adjusted as shown in table 17 on page 40. the wdr ? watchdog reset ? instruction resets the watchdog timer. the watchdog timer is also reset when it is disabled and when a chip reset occurs. eight different clock cycle periods can be selected to determine the reset period. if the reset period expires without another watchdog reset, the atmega16 resets and executes from the reset vector. for timing details on the watchdog reset, refer to page 38. to prevent unintentional disabling of the watchdog, a special turn-off sequence must be followed when the watchdog is disabled. refer to the description of the watchdog timer control register for details. figure 21. watchdog timer table 16. internal voltage reference characteristics symbol parameter min typ max units v bg bandgap reference voltage 1.15 1.23

if the wdtoe bit has logic level one. to disable an enabled watchdog timer, the follow- ing procedure must be followed: 1. in the same operation, write a logic one to wdtoe and wde. a logic one must be written to wde even though it is set to one before the disable operation starts. 2. within the next four clock cycles, write a logic 0 to wde. this disables the watchdog. bits 2..0 ? wdp2, wdp1,

register controls the placement of the interrupt vector table. general interrupt control register ? gicr bit 1 ? ivsel: interrupt vector select when the ivsel bit is cleared (zero), the interrupt vectors are placed at the start of the flash memory. when this bit is set (one), the interrupt vectors are moved to the begin- ning of the boot loader section of the flash. the actual address of the start of the boot flash section is determined by the bootsz fuses. refer to the section ?boot loader support ? read-while-write self-programming? on page 241 for details. to avoid unin- tentional changes of interrupt vector tables, a special write procedure must be followed to change the ivsel bit: 1. write the interrupt vector change enable (ivce) bit to one. 2. within four cycles, write the desired value to ivsel while writing a zero to ivce. interrupts will automatically be disabled while this sequence is executed. interrupts are disabled in the cycle ivce is set, and they remain disabled until after the instruction fol- lowing the write to ivsel. if ivsel is not written, interrupts remain disabled for four cycles. the i-bit in the status register is unaffected by the automatic disabling. note: if interrupt vectors are placed in the boot loader section and boot lock bit blb02 is pro- grammed, interrupts are disabled while executing from the application section. if interrupt vectors are placed in the application section and boot lock bit blb12 is pro- gramed, interrupts are disabled while executing from the boot loader section. refer to the section ?boot loader

functional description of one i/o-port pin, here generically called pxn. figure 23. general digital i/o (1) note: 1. wpx, wdx, rrx, rpx, and rdx are common to all pins within the same port. clk i/o , sleep, and pud are common to all ports. configuring the pin each port pin consists of three register bits: ddxn, portxn, and pinxn. as shown in ?register description for i/o ports? on page 62, the ddxn bits are accessed at the ddrx i/o address, the portxn bits at the portx i/o address, and the pinxn bits at the pinx i/o address. the ddxn bit in the ddrx register selects the direction of this pin. if ddxn is written logic one, pxn is configured as an output pin. if ddxn is written logic zero, pxn is config- ured as an input pin. if portxn is written logic one when the pin is configured as an input pin, the pull-up resistor is activated. to switch the pull-up resistor off, portxn has to be written logic zero or the pin has to be configured as an output pin. the port pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if no clocks are running. if portxn is written logic one when the pin is configured as an output pin, the port pin is driven high (one). if portxn is written logic zero when the pin is configured as an out- put pin, the port pin is driven low (zero). when switching between tri-state ({ddxn, portxn} = 0b00) and output high ({ddxn, portxn} = 0b11), an intermediate state with either pull-up enabled ({ddxn, portxn} = 0b01) or output low ({ddxn, portxn} = 0b10) must occur. normally, the pull-up clk rpx rrx wpx rdx wdx pud synchronizer wdx: write

sleep sleep: sleep control pxn i/o 49 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 enabled state is fully acceptable, as a high-impedant environment will not notice the dif- ference between a strong high driver and a pull-up. if this is not the case, the pud bit in the sfior register can be set to disable all pull-ups in all ports. switching between input with pull-up and output low generates the same problem. the user must use either the tri-state ({ddxn, portxn} = 0b00) or the output high state ({ddxn, portxn} = 0b11) as an intermediate step. table 20 summarizes the control signals for the pin value. reading the pin value independent of the setting of data direction bit ddxn, the port pin can be read through the pinxn register bit. as shown in figure 23, the pinxn register bit and the preceding latch constitute a synchronizer. this is needed to avoid metastability if the physical pin changes value near the edge of the internal clock, but it also introduces a delay. figure 24 shows a timing diagram of the synchron ization when reading an externally applied pin value. the maximum and minimum propagation delays are denoted t pd,max and t pd,min respectively. figure 24. synchronization when reading an externally applied pin value consider the clock period starting shortly after the first falling edge of the system clock. the latch is closed when the clock is low, and goes transparent when the clock is high, as indicated by the shaded region of the ?sync latch? signal. the signal value is latched when the system clock goes low. it is clocked into the pinxn register at the table 20. port pin

assertion. when reading back a software assigned pin value, a nop instruction must be inserted as indicated in figure 25. the out instruction sets the ?sync latch? signal at the positive edge of the clock. in this case, the delay t pd through the synchronizer is one system clock period. figure 25. synchronization when reading a software assigned pin value nop in r17, pinx 0xff 0x00 0xff t pd out

from 4 to 7 as input with pull-ups assigned to port pins 6 and 7. the resulting pin values are read back again, but as previously discussed, a nop instruction is included to be able to read back the value recently assigned to some of the pins. note: 1. for the assembly program, two temporary registers are used to minimize the time from pull-ups are set on pins 0, 1, 6, and 7, until the direction bits are correctly set, defining bit 2 and 3 as low and redefining bits 0 and 1 as strong high drivers. digital input enable and sleep modes as shown in figure 23, the digital input signal can be clamped to ground at the input of the schmitt-trigger. the signal denoted sleep in the figure, is set by the mcu sleep controller in power-down mode, power-save mode, standby mode, and extended standby mode to avoid high power consumption if some input signals are left floating, or have an analog signal level close to v cc /2. sleep is overridden for port pins enabled as external interrupt pins. if the external interrupt request is not enabled, sleep is active also for these pins. sleep is also overridden by various other alternate functions as described in ?alternate port func- tions? on page 52. if a logic high level (?one?) is present on an asynchronous external interrupt pin config- ured as ?interrupt on any logic change on pin? while the external interrupt is not enabled, the corresponding external interrupt flag will be set when resuming from the above mentioned sleep modes, as the clam ping in these sleep modes produces the requested logic change. assembly code example

digital input to alternate functions. in the figure, the signal is connected to the output of the schmitt trigger but before the synchronizer. unless the digital input is used as a clock source, the module with the alternate function will use its own synchronizer. aio analog input/ output this is the analog input/output to/from alternate functions. the signal is connected directly to the pad, and can be used bi-directionally. 54 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 special function i/o register ? sfior bit 2 ? pud: pull-up disable when this bit is written to one, the pull-ups in the i/o ports are

that, if enabled, the interrupts will trigger even if the int0..2 pins are configured as outputs. this feature provides a way of generating a software interrupt. the external interrupts can be triggered by a falling or rising edge or a low level (int2 is only an edge triggered interrupt). this is set up as indicated in the specification for the mcu control register ? mcucr ? and mcu control and status register ? mcucsr. when the external inter- rupt is enabled and is configured as level triggered (only int0/int1), the interrupt will trigger as long as the pin is held low. note that recognition of falling or rising edge inter- rupts on int0 and int1 requires the presence of an i/o clock, described in ?clock systems and their distribution? on page 22. low level interrupts on int0/int1 and the edge interrupt on int2 are detected asynchronously. this implies that these interrupts can be used for waking the part also from sleep modes other than idle mode. the i/o clock is halted in all sleep modes except idle mode. note that if a level triggered interrupt is used for wake-up from power-down mode, the changed level must be held for some time to wake up the mcu. this makes the mcu less sensitive to noise. the changed level is sampled twice by the watchdog oscillator clock. the period of the watchdog oscillator is 1 s (nominal) at 5.0v and 25 c. the frequency of the watchdog oscillator is voltage dependent as shown in ?electrical char- acteristics? on page 285. the mcu will wake up if the input has the required level during this sampling or if it is held until the end of the start-up time. the start-up time is defined by the sut fuses as described in ?system clock and clock options? on page 22. if the level is sampled twice by the watchdog os cillator clock but disappears before the end of the start-up time, the mcu will still wake up, but no interrupt will be generated. the required level must be held long enough for the mcu to complete the wake up to trigger the level interrupt. mcu control register ? mcucr the mcu control register contains control bits for interrupt sense control and general mcu functions. bit 3, 2 ? isc11, isc10: interrupt sense control 1 bit 1 and bit 0 the external interrupt 1 is activated by the external pin int1 if the sreg i-bit and the corresponding interrupt mask in the gicr are set. the level and edges on the external int1 pin that activate the interrupt are defined in table 34. the value on the int1 pin is sampled before detecting edges. if edge or toggle interrupt is selected, pulses that last longer than one clock period will generate an interrupt. shorter pu lses are not guaran- teed to generate an interrupt. if low level interrupt is selected, the low level must be held until the completion of the currently executing instruction to generate an interrupt. bit 76543210 sm2 se sm1 sm0 isc11 isc10 isc01 isc00 mcucr read/write r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w initial value 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 table

external interrupt 0 is activated by the external pin int0 if the sreg i-flag and the corresponding interrupt mask are set. the level and edges on the external int0 pin that activate the interrupt are defined in table 35. the value on the int0 pin is sampled before detecting edges. if edge or toggle interrupt is selected, pulses that last longer than one clock period will generate an interrupt. shorter pulses are not guaranteed to generate an interrupt. if low level interrupt is selected, the low level must be held until the completion of the currently executing instruction to generate an interrupt. mcu control and status register ? mcucsr bit 6 ? isc2: interrupt sense control 2 the asynchronous external interrupt 2 is activated by the external pin int2 if the sreg i-bit and the corresponding interrupt mask in gicr are set. if isc2 is written to zero, a falling edge on int2 activates the interrupt. if isc2 is written to one, a rising edge on int2 activates the interrupt. edges on int2 are registered asynchronously. pulses on int2 wider than the minimum pulse width gi ven in table 36 will generate an interrupt. shorter pulses are not guaranteed to generate an interrupt. when changing the isc2 bit, an interrupt can occur. therefore, it is recommended to first disable int2 by clearing its interrupt enable bit in the gicr register. then, the isc2 bit can be changed. finally, the int2 interrupt flag should be cleared by writing a logical one to its interrupt flag bit (intf2) in the gifr register before the interrupt is re-enabled. general interrupt

intf1: external interrupt flag 1 when an edge or logic change on the int1 pin triggers an interrupt request, intf1 becomes set (one). if the i-bit in sreg and the int1 bit in gicr are set (one), the mcu will jump to the corresponding interrupt vector. the flag is cleared when the interrupt routine is executed. alternatively, the flag can be cleared by writing a logical one to it. this flag is always cleared when int1 is configured as a level interrupt. bit 6 ? intf0: external interrupt flag 0 when an edge or logic change on the int0 pin triggers an interrupt request, intf0 becomes set (one). if the i-bit in sreg and the int0 bit in gicr are set (one), the mcu will jump to the corresponding interrupt vector. the flag is cleared when the interrupt routine is executed. alternatively, the flag can be cleared by writing a logical one to it. this flag is always cleared when int0 is configured as a level interrupt. bit 5 ? intf2: external interrupt flag 2 when an event on the int2 pin

external event counter 10-bit clock prescaler overflow and compare match interrupt sources (tov0 and ocf0) overview a simplified block diagram of the 8-bit timer/counter is shown in figure 27. for the actual placement of i/o pins, refer to ?pinouts atmega16? on page 2. cpu accessible i/o registers, including i/o bits and i/o pins, are shown in bold. the device-specific i/o register and bit locations are listed in the ?8-bit timer/counter register description? on page 77. figure 27. 8-bit timer/counter block diagram registers the timer/counter (tcnt0) and output compare register (ocr0) are 8-bit registers. interrupt request (abbreviated to int.req. in the figure) signals are all visible in the timer interrupt flag register (tifr). all interrupts are individually masked with the timer interrupt mask register (timsk). tifr and timsk are not shown in the figure since these registers are shared by other timer units. the timer/counter can be clocked internally, via the prescaler, or by an external clock source on the t0 pin. the clock select logic block controls which clock source and edge the timer/counter uses to increment (or decrement) its value. the timer/counter is inactive when no clock source is selected. the output from the clock select logic is referred to as the timer clock (clk t0 ). timer/counter data b u s = tcntn waveform generation ocn = 0 control

output compare register (ocr0) is compared with the timer/counter value at all times. the result of the compare can be used by the wave- form generator to generate a pwm or variable frequency output on the output compare pin (oc0). see ?output compare unit? on page 69. for details. the compare match event will also set the compare flag (ocf0) which can be used to generate an output compare interrupt request. definitions many register and bit references in this document are written in general form. a lower case ?n? replaces the timer/counter number, in this case 0. however, when using the register or bit defines in a program, the precise form must be used i.e., tcnt0 for accessing timer/counter0 counter value and so on. the definitions in table 37 are also used extensively throughout the document. timer/counter clock sources the timer/counter can be clocked by an internal or an external clock source. the clock source is selected by the clock select l ogic which is controlled by the clock select (cs02:0) bits located in the timer/counter control register (tccr0). for details on clock sources and prescaler, see ?timer/counter0 and timer/counter1 prescalers? on page 81. counter unit the main part of the 8-bit timer/counter is the programmable bi-directional counter unit. figure 28 shows a block diagram of the counter and its surroundings. figure 28. counter

edge detector ( from prescaler ) clk tn bottom direction clear 69 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 bottom signalize that tcnt0 has reached minimum value (zero). depending of the mode of operation used, the counter is cleared, incremented, or dec- remented at each timer clock (clk t0 ). clk t0 can be generated from an external or internal clock source, selected by the clock select bits (cs02:0). when no clock source is selected (cs02:0 = 0) the timer is stopped. however, the tcnt0 value can be accessed by the cpu, regardless of whether clk t0 is present or not. a cpu write overrides (has priority over) all counter clear or count operations. the counting sequence is determined by the setting of the wgm01 and wgm00 bits located in the timer/counter control register (tccr0). there are close connections between how the counter behaves (counts) and how waveforms are generated on the output compare output oc0. for more det ails about advanced counting sequences and waveform generation, see ?modes of operation? on page 71. the timer/counter overflow (tov0) flag is set according to the mode of operation selected by the wgm01:0 bits. tov0 can be used for generating a cpu interrupt. output compare unit the 8-bit comparator continuously compares tcnt0 with the output compare register (ocr0). whenever tcnt0 equals ocr0, the comparator signals a match. a match will set the output compare flag (ocf0) at the next timer clock cycle. if enabled (ocie0 = 1 and global interrupt flag in sreg is set), the output compare flag generates an out- put compare interrupt. the ocf0 flag is automatically cleared when the interrupt is executed. alternatively, the ocf0 flag can be cleared by software by writing a logical one to its i/o bit location. the waveform generator uses the match signal to generate an output according to operating mode set by the wgm01:0 bits and compare output mode (com01:0) bits. the max and bottom signals are used by the waveform generator for handling the special cases of the extreme values in some modes of operation (see ?modes of operation? on page 71.). figure 29 shows a block diagram of the output compare unit. figure 29. output compare unit, block

any of the pulse width modulation (pwm) modes. for the normal and clear timer on compare (ctc) modes of operation, the double buffering is disabled. the double buffering synchronizes the update of the ocr0 compare register to either top or bottom of the counting sequence. the synchro- nization prevents the occurrence of odd-length, non-symmetrical pwm pulses, thereby making the output glitch-free. the ocr0 register access may seem complex, but this is not case. when the double buffering is enabled, the cpu has access to the ocr0 buffer register, and if double buffering is disabled the cpu will access the ocr0 directly. force output compare in non-pwm waveform generation modes, the match output of the comparator can be forced by writing a one to the force output compare (foc0) bit. forcing compare match will not set the ocf0 flag or reload/clear the timer, but the oc0 pin will be updated as if a real compare match had o ccurred (the com01:0 bits settings define whether the oc0 pin is set, cleared or toggled). compare match blocking by tcnt0 write all cpu write operations to the tcnt0 register will block any compare match that occur in the next timer clock cycle, even when the timer is stopped. this feature allows ocr0 to be initialized to the same value as tcnt0 without triggering an interrupt when the timer/counter clock is enabled. using the output compare unit since writing tcnt0 in any mode of operat ion will block all compare matches for one timer clock cycle, there are risks involved when changing tcnt0 when using the output compare channel, independently of whether the timer/counter is running or not. if the value written to tcnt0 equals the ocr0 va lue, the compare match will be missed, resulting in incorrect waveform generation. similarly, do not write the tcnt0 value equal to bottom when the counter is downcounting. the setup of the oc0 should be performed before setting the data direction register for the port pin to output. the easiest way of setting the oc0 value is to use the force out- put compare (foc0) strobe bits in normal mode. the oc0 register keeps its value even when changing between waveform generation modes. be aware that the com01:0 bits are not double buffered together with the compare value. changing the com01:0 bits will take effect immediately. compare match output unit the compare output mode (com01:0) bits have two functions. the waveform genera- tor uses the com01:0 bits for defining the output compare (oc0) state at the next compare match. also, the com01:0 bits c ontrol the oc0 pin output source. figure 30 shows a simplified schematic of the logic affected by the com01:0 bit setting. the i/o registers, i/o bits, and i/o pins in the figure are shown in bold. only the parts of the general i/o port control registers (ddr and port) that are affected by the com01:0 bits are shown. when referring to the oc0 state, the reference is for the internal oc0 register, not the oc0 pin. if a system reset occur, the oc0 register is reset to ?0?. 71 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 30. compare match output unit, schematic the general i/o port function is overridden by the output compare (oc0) from the waveform generator if either of the com01:0 bits are set. however, the oc0 pin direc- tion (input or output) is still controlled by the data direction register (ddr) for the port pin. the data direction register bit for the oc0 pin (ddr_oc0) must be set as output before the oc0 value is visible on the pin. the port override function is independent of the waveform generation mode. the design of the output compare pin logic allows initialization of the oc0 state before the output is enabled. note that some com01:0 bit settings are reserved for certain modes of operation. see ?8-bit timer/counter register description? on page 77. compare output mode and waveform generation the waveform generator uses the com01:0 bits differently in normal, ctc, and pwm modes. for all modes, setting the com01:0 = 0 tells the waveform generator that no action on the oc0 register is to be performed on the next compare match. for compare output actions in the non-pwm modes refer to table 39 on page 78. for fast pwm mode, refer to table 40 on page 78, and for phase correct pwm refer to table 41 on page 79. a change of the com01:0 bits state will have effect at the first compare match after the bits are written. for non-pwm modes, the action can be forced to have immediate effect by using the foc0 strobe bits. modes of operation the mode of operation, i.e., the behavior of the timer/counter and the output compare pins, is defined by the combination of the waveform generation mode (wgm01:0) and compare output mode (com01:0) bits. the compare output mode bits do not affect the counting sequence, while the waveform generation mode bits do. the com01:0 bits control whether the pwm output generated should be inverted or not (inverted or non-inverted pwm). for non-pwm modes the com01:0 bits control whether the output should be set, cleared, or toggled at a compare match (see ?compare match output unit? on page 70.). for detailed timing information refer to figure 34, figure 35, figure 36 and figure 37 in ?timer/counter timing diagrams? on page 75. port ddr dq dq ocn pin ocn dq waveform generator comn1 comn0 0 1 data b u s focn clk i/o 72 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 normal mode the simplest mode of operation is the normal mode (wgm01:0 = 0). in this mode the counting direction is always up (incrementing), and no counter clear is performed. the counter simply overruns when it passes its maximum 8-bit value (top = 0xff) and then restarts from the bottom (0x00). in normal operation the timer/counter overflow flag ( tov 0) will be set in the same timer clock cycle as the tcnt0 becomes zero. the tov 0 flag in this case behaves like a ninth bit, except that it is only set, not cleared. however, combined with the timer overflow interrupt that automatically clears the tov 0 flag, the timer resolution can be increased by software. there are no special cases to consider in the normal mode, a new counter value can be written anytime. the output compare unit can be used to generate interrupts at some given time. using the output compare to generate waveforms in normal mode is not recommended, since this will occupy too much of the cpu time. clear timer on compare match (ctc) mode in clear timer on compare or ctc mode (wgm01:0 = 2), the ocr0 register is used to manipulate the counter resolution. in ctc mode the counter is cleared to zero when the counter value (tcnt0) matches the ocr0. the ocr0 defines the top value for the counter, hence also its resolution. this mode allows greater control of the compare match output frequency. it also simplifies the operation of counting external events. the timing diagram for the ctc mode is shown in figure 31. the counter value (tcnt0) increases until a compare match occurs between tcnt0 and ocr0, and then counter (tcnt0) is cleared. figure 31. ctc mode, timing diagram an interrupt can be generated each time the counter value reaches the top value by using the ocf0 flag. if the interrupt is enabled, the interrupt handler routine can be used for updating the top value. however, changing top to a value close to bottom when the counter is running with none or a low prescaler value must be done with care since the ctc mode does not have the double buffering feature. if the new value written to ocr0 is lower than the current value of tcnt0, the counter will miss the compare match. the counter will then have to count to its maximum value (0xff) and wrap around starting at 0x00 before the compare match can occur. for generating a waveform output in ctc mode, the oc0 output can be set to toggle its logical level on each compare match by setting the compare output mode bits to toggle mode (com01:0 = 1). the oc0 value will not be visible on the port pin unless the data direction for the pin is set to output. the waveform generated will have a maximum fre- tcntn ocn (toggle) ocn interrupt flag set 1 4 period 2 3 (comn1:0 = 1) 73 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 quency of f oc0 = f clk_i/o /2 when ocr0 is set to zero (0x00). the waveform frequency is defined by the following equation: the n variable represents the prescale factor (1, 8, 64, 256, or 1024). as for the normal mode of operation, the tov0 flag is set in the same timer clock cycle that the counter counts from max to 0x00. fast pwm mode the fast pulse width modulation or fast pwm mode (wgm01:0 = 3) provides a high fre- quency pwm waveform generation option. the fast pwm differs from the other pwm option by its single-slope operation. the counter counts from bottom to max then restarts from bottom. in non-inverting compare output mode, the output compare (oc0) is cleared on the compare match between tcnt0 and ocr0, and set at bot- tom. in inverting compare output mode, the output is set on compare match and cleared at bottom. due to the single-slope operation, the operating frequency of the fast pwm mode can be twice as high as the phase correct pwm mode that use dual- slope operation. this high frequency makes the fast pwm mode well suited for power regulation, rectification, and dac applicat ions. high frequency allows physically small sized external components (coils, capacitors), and therefore reduces total system cost. in fast pwm mode, the counter is incremented until the counter value matches the max value. the counter is then cleared at the following timer clock cycle. the timing diagram for the fast pwm mode is shown in figure 32. the tcnt0 value is in the timing diagram shown as a histogram for illustrating the single-slope operation. the diagram includes non-inverted and inverted pwm outputs. the small horizontal line marks on the tcnt0 slopes represent compare matches between ocr0 and tcnt0. figure 32. fast pwm mode, timing diagram the timer/counter overflow flag (tov0) is set each time the counter reaches max. if the interrupt is enabled, the interrupt handler routine can be used for updating the com- pare value. in fast pwm mode, the compare unit allows generation of pwm waveforms on the oc0 pin. setting the com01:0 bits to 2 will produce a non-inverted pwm and an inverted pwm output can be generated by setting the com01:0 to 3 (see table 40 on page 78). the actual oc0 value

register at the compare match between ocr0 and tcnt0, and clearing (or setting) the oc0 register at the timer clock cycle the counter is cleared (changes from max to bottom). the pwm frequency for the output can be calculated by the following equation: the n variable represents the prescale factor (1, 8, 64, 256, or 1024). the extreme values for the ocr0 register represents special cases when generating a pwm waveform output in the fast pwm mode. if the ocr0 is set equal to bottom, the output will be a narrow spike for each max+1 timer clock cycle. setting the ocr0 equal to max will result in a constantly high or low output (depending on the polarity of the out- put set by the com01:0 bits.) a frequency (with 50% duty cycle) waveform output in fast pwm mode can be achieved by setting oc0 to toggle its logical leve l on each compare match (com01:0 = 1). the waveform generated will have a maximum frequency of f oc0 = f clk_i/o /2 when ocr0 is set to zero. this feature is similar to the oc0 toggle in ctc mode, except the double buffer feature of the output compare unit is enabled in the fast pwm mode. phase correct pwm mode the phase correct pwm mode (wgm01:0 = 1) provides a high resolution phase correct pwm waveform generation option. the phase correct pwm mode is based on a dual- slope operation. the counter counts repeatedly from bottom to max and then from max to bottom. in non-inverting compare output mode, the output compare (oc0) is cleared on the compare match between tcnt0 and ocr0 while upcounting, and set on the compare match while downcounting. in inverting output compare mode, the operation is inverted. the dual-slope operation has lower maximum operation frequency than single slope operation. however, due to the symmetric feature of the dual-slope pwm modes, these modes are preferred for motor control applications. the pwm resolution for the phase correct pwm mode is fixed to eight bits. in phase correct pwm mode the counter is incremented until the counter value matches max. when the counter reaches max, it changes the count direction. the tcnt0 value will be equal to max for one timer clock cycle. the timing diagram for the phase correct pwm mode is shown on figure 33. the tcnt0 value is in the timing diagram shown as a histogram for illustrating the dual-slope operation. the diagram includes non-inverted and inverted pwm outputs. the small horizontal line marks on the tcnt0 slopes repre- sent compare matches between ocr0 and tcnt0. f ocnpwm f clk_i/o n 256 ? ------------------ = 75 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 33. phase correct pwm mode, timing diagram the timer/counter overflow flag (tov0) is set each time the counter reaches bot- tom. the interrupt flag can be used to generate an interrupt each time the counter reaches the bottom value. in phase correct pwm mode, the compare unit allows generation of pwm waveforms on the oc0 pin. setting the com01:0 bits to 2 will produce a non-inverted pwm. an inverted pwm output can be generated by setting the com01:0 to 3 (see table 41 on page 79). the actual oc0 value will only be visible on the port pin if the data direction for the port pin is set as output. the pwm waveform is generated by clearing (or setting) the oc0 register at the compare match between ocr0 and tcnt0 when the counter increments, and setting (or clearing) the oc0 register at compare match between ocr0 and tcnt0 when the counter decrements. the pwm frequency for the output when using phase correct pwm can be calculated by the following equation: the n variable represents the prescale factor (1, 8, 64, 256, or 1024). the extreme values for the ocr0 register represent special cases when generating a pwm waveform output in the phase correct pwm mode. if the ocr0 is set equal to bottom, the output will be continuously low and if set equal to max the output will be continuously high for non-inverted pwm mode. for inverted pwm the output will have the opposite logic values.

however, for ensuring compatibility with future devices, this bit must be set to zero when tccr0 is written when operating in pwm mode. when writing a logical one to the foc0 bit, an immediate compare match is forced on the waveform generation unit. the oc0 output is changed according to its com01:0 bits setting. note that the foc0 bit is implemented as a strobe. therefore it is the value present in the com01:0 bits that determines the effect of the forced compare. a foc0 strobe will not generate any interrupt, nor will it clear the timer in ctc mode using ocr0 as top. the foc0 bit is always read as zero. bit 6, 3 ? wgm01:0: waveform generation mode these bits control the counting sequence of the counter, the source for the maximum (top) counter value, and what type of waveform generation to be used. modes of operation supported by the timer/counter unit are: normal mode, clear timer on com- pare match (ctc) mode, and two types of pulse width modulation (pwm) modes. see table 38 and

functionality and location of these bits are compatible with previous versions of the timer. bit 5:4 ? com01:0: compare match output mode these bits control the output compare pin (oc0) behavior. if one or both of the com01:0 bits are set, the oc0 output overrides the normal port functionality of the i/o pin it is connected to. however, note that t he data direction register (ddr) bit corre- sponding to the oc0 pin must be set in order to enable the output driver. when oc0 is connected to the pin, the function of the com01:0 bits depends on the wgm01:0 bit setting. table 39 shows the com01:0 bit functionality when the wgm01:0 bits are set to a normal or ctc mode (non-pwm). table 40 shows the com01:0 bit functionality when the wgm01:0 bits are set to fast pwm mode. note: 1. a special case occurs when ocr0 equals top and com01 is set. in this case, the compare match is ignored, but the set or clear is done at top. see ?fast pwm mode? on page 73 for more details. table 41

and timer/counter0 share the same prescaler module, but the timer/counters can have different prescaler settings. the description below applies to both timer/counter1 and timer/counter0. internal clock source the timer/counter can be clocked directly by the system clock (by setting the csn2:0 = 1). this provides the fastest operation, with a maximum timer/counter clock frequency equal to system clock frequency (f clk_i/o ). alternatively, one of four taps from the pres- caler can be used as a clock source. t he prescaled clock has a frequency of either f clk_i/o /8, f clk_i/o /64, f clk_i/o /256, or f clk_i/o /1024. prescaler reset the prescaler is free running, i.e., operates independently of the clock select logic of the timer/counter, and it is shared by timer/counter1 and timer/counter0. since the pres- caler is not affected by the timer/counter?s clock select, the state of the prescaler will have implications for situations where a prescaled clock is used. one example of pres- caling artifacts occurs when the timer is enabled and clocked by the prescaler (6 > csn2:0 > 1). the number of system clock cycles from when the timer is enabled to the first count occurs can be from 1 to n+1 system clock cycles, where n equals the pres- caler divisor (8, 64, 256, or 1024). it is possible to use the prescaler reset for synchronizing the timer/counter to program execution. however, care must be taken if the other timer/counter that shares the same prescaler also uses pr escaling. a prescaler reset will affect the prescaler period for all timer/counters it is connected to. external clock source an external clock source applied to the t1/t0 pin can be used as timer/counter clock (clk t1 /clk t0 ). the t1/t0 pin is sampled once every system clock cycle by the pin syn- chronization logic. the synchronized (sampled) signal is then passed through the edge detector. figure 38 shows a functional equivalent block diagram of the t1/t0 synchroni- zation and edge detector logic. the registers are clocked at the positive edge of the internal system clock ( clk i/o ). the latch is transparent in the high period of the internal system clock. the edge detector generates one clk t1 /clk t 0 pulse for each positive (csn2:0 = 7) or neg- ative (csn2:0 = 6) edge it detects. figure 38. t1/t0 pin sampling the synchronization and edge detector logic introduces a delay of 2.5 to 3.5 system clock cycles from an edge has been applied to the t1/t0 pin to the counter is updated. enabling and disabling of the clock input must be done when t1/t0 has been stable for at least one system clock cycle, otherwise it is a risk that a false timer/counter clock pulse is generated. each half period of the external clock applied must be longer than one system clock cycle to ensure

frequency (nyquist sampling theorem). however, due to vari- ation of the system clock frequency and duty cycle caused by oscillator source (crystal, resonator, and capacitors) tolerances, it is recommended that maximum frequency of an external clock source is less than f clk_i/o /2.5. an external clock source can not be prescaled. figure 39. prescaler for timer/counter0 and timer/counter1

2466e?avr?10/02 16-bit timer/counter1 the 16-bit timer/counter unit allows accurate program execution timing (event man- agement), wave generation, and signal timing measurement. the main features are: true 16-bit design (i.e., allows 16-bit pwm) two independent output compare units double buffered output compare registers one input capture unit input capture noise canceler clear timer on compare match (auto reload) glitch-free, phase correct pulse width modulator (pwm) variable pwm period frequency generator external event counter four independent interrupt sources (tov1, ocf1a, ocf1b, and icf1) overview most register and bit references in this document are written in general form. a lower case ?n? replaces the timer/counter number, and a lower case ?x? replaces the output compare unit channel. however, when using the register or bit defines in a program, the precise form must be used (i.e., tcnt1 for accessing timer/counter1 counter value and so on). the physical i/o register and bit locations for atmega16 are listed in the ?16-bit timer/counter register description? on page 104. a simplified block diagram of the 16-bit timer/counter is shown in figure 40. cpu accessible i/o registers, including i/o bits and i/o pins, are shown in bold. 84 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 40. 16-bit timer/counter block diagram (1) note: 1. refer to figure 1 on page 2, table 25 on page 55, and table 31 on page 60 for timer/counter1 pin placement and description. registers the timer/counter (tcnt1), output compare registers (ocr1a/b), and input capture register (icr1) are all 16-bit registers. special procedures must be followed when accessing the 16-bit registers. these procedures are described in the section ?access- ing 16-bit registers? on page 86. the timer/counter control registers (tccr1a/b) are 8-bit registers and have no cpu access restrictions. interrupt requests (abbreviated to int.req. in the figure) signals are all visible in the timer interrupt flag register (tifr). all interrupts are individually masked with the timer interrupt mask register (timsk). tifr and timsk are not shown in the figure since these registers are shared by other timer units. the timer/counter can be clocked internally, via the prescaler, or by an external clock source on the t1 pin. the clock select logic block controls which clock source and edge the timer/counter uses to increment (or decrement) its value. the timer/counter is inactive when no clock source is selected. the output from the clock select logic is referred to as the timer clock (clk t 1 ). the double buffered output compare registers (ocr1a/b) are compared with the timer/counter value at all time. the result of the compare can be used by the waveform generator to generate a pwm or variable frequency output on the output compare pin clock select timer/counter data b u s ocrna ocrnb icrn = = tcntn waveform generation waveform generation ocna ocnb noise canceler icpn = fixed

used to generate an output com- pare interrupt request. the input capture register can capture the timer/counter value at a given external (edge triggered) event on either the input capture pin (icp1) or on the analog compar- ator pins (see ?analog comparator? on page 195.) the input capture unit includes a digital filtering unit (noise canceler) for reducing the chance of capturing noise spikes. the top value, or maximum timer/counter value, can in some modes of operation be defined by either the ocr1a register, the i cr1 register, or by a set of fixed values. when using ocr1a as top value in a pwm mode, the ocr1a register can not be used for generating a pwm output. however, the top value will in this case be double buffered allowing the top value to be changed in run time. if a fixed top value is required, the icr1 register can be used as an alternative, freeing the ocr1a to be used as pwm output. definitions the following definitions are used extensively throughout the document: compatibility the 16-bit timer/counter has been updated and improved from previous versions of the 16-bit avr timer/counter. this 16-bit timer/counter is fully compatible with the earlier version regarding: all 16-bit timer/counter related i/o register address locations, including timer interrupt registers. bit locations inside all 16-bit timer/counter registers, including timer interrupt registers. interrupt vectors. the following control bits have changed name, but have same functionality and register location: pwm10 is changed to wgm10. pwm11 is changed to wgm11. ctc1 is changed to wgm12. the following bits are added to the 16-bit timer/counter control registers: foc1a and foc1b are added to tccr1a. wgm13 is added to tccr1b. the 16-bit timer/counter has improvements that will affect the compatibility in some special cases. table 43. definitions bottom the counter reaches the bottom when it becomes 0x0000. max the counter reaches its max imum when it becomes 0xffff (decimal 65535). top the counter reaches the top when it becomes equal to the highest value in the count sequence. the top value can be assigned to be one of the fixed values: 0x00ff, 0x01ff, or 0x03ff, or to the value stored in the ocr1a or icr1 regis- ter. the assignment is dependent of the mode of operation. 86 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 accessing 16-bit registers the tcnt1, ocr1a/b, and icr1 are 16-bit registers that can be accessed by the avr cpu via the 8-bit data bus. the 16-bit register must be byte accessed using two read or write operations. each 16-bit timer has a single 8-bit register for temporary storing of the high byte of the 16-bit access. the same temporary register is shared between all 16-bit registers within each 16-bit timer. accessing the low byte triggers the 16-bit read or write operation. when the low byte of a 16-bit register is written by the cpu, the high byte stored in the temporary register, and the low byte written are both copied into the 16-bit register in the same clock cycle. when the low byte of a 16-bit register is read by the cpu, the high byte of the 16-bit register is copied into the temporary register in the same clock cycle as the low byte is read. not all 16-bit accesses uses the temporar y register for the high byte. reading the ocr1a/b 16-bit registers does not involve using the temporary register. to do a 16-bit write, the high byte must be written before the low byte . for a 16-bit read, the low byte must be read before the high byte . the following code examples show how to access the 16-bit timer registers assuming that no interrupts updates the temporary register. the same principle can be used directly for accessing the ocr1a/b and icr1 registers. note that when using ?c?, the compiler handles the 16-bit access. note: 1. the example code assumes that the part specific header file is included. the assembly code example returns the tcnt1 value in the r17:r16 register pair. it is important to notice that accessing 16-bit registers are atomic operations. if an inter- rupt occurs between the two instructions accessing the 16-bit register, and the interrupt code updates the temporary register by access ing the same or any other of the 16-bit timer registers, then the result of the access outside the interrupt will be corrupted. therefore, when both the main code and the interrupt code update the temporary regis- ter, the main code must disable the interrupts during the 16-bit access. assembly code example (1) ... ; set tcnt1 to 0x01ff ldi r17,0x01 ldi r16,0xff out tcnt1h,r17 out tcnt1l,r16 ; read tcnt1

following code examples show how to do an atomic read of the tcnt1 register contents. reading any of the ocr1a/b or icr1 registers can be done by using the same principle. note: 1. the example code assumes that the part specific header file is included. the assembly code example returns the tcnt1 value in the r17:r16 register pair. assembly code example (1) tim16_readtcnt1: ; save global interrupt flag in r18,sreg ; disable interrupts cli ; read tcnt1 into r17:r16 in r16,tcnt1l in r17,tcnt1h ; restore global interrupt flag out sreg,r18 ret c code example (1) unsigned int tim16_readtcnt1( void ) { unsigned char sreg; unsigned int i; /* save global interrupt flag */ sreg = sreg; /* disable interrupts */ _cli(); /* read tcnt1 into i */ i = tcnt1; /* restore global interrupt flag */ sreg = sreg; return i; } 88 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 the following code examples show how to do an atomic write of the tcnt1 register contents. writing any of the ocr1a/b or icr1 registers can be done by using the same principle. note: 1. the example code assumes that the part specific header file is included. the assembly code example requires that the r17:r16 register pair contains the value to be written to tcnt1. reusing the temporary high byte register if writing to more than one 16-bit register where the high byte is the same for all registers written, then the high byte only needs to be written once. however, note that the same rule of atomic operation described previously also applies in this case. timer/counter clock sources the timer/counter can be clocked by an internal or an external clock source. the clock source is selected by the clock select logic which is controlled by the clock select (cs12:0) bits located in the timer/counter control register b (tccr1b). for details on clock sources and prescaler, see ?timer/counter0 and timer/counter1 prescalers? on page 81. counter unit the main part of the 16-bit timer/counter is the programmable 16-bit bi-directional counter unit. figure 41 shows a block diagram of the counter and its surroundings. assembly code example (1) tim16_writetcnt1: ; save global interrupt flag in r18,sreg ; disable

unsigned int i; /* save global interrupt flag */ sreg = sreg; /* disable interrupts */ _cli(); /* set tcnt1 to i */ tcnt1 = i; /* restore global interrupt flag */ sreg = sreg; } 89 atmega16(l)

tcnt1 (set all bits to zero). clk t 1 timer/counter clock. top signalize that tcnt1 has reached maximum value. bottom signalize that tcnt1 has reached minimum value (zero). the 16-bit counter is mapped into two 8-bit i/o memory locations: counter high (tcnt1h) containing the upper eight bits of the counter, and counter low (tcnt1l) containing the lower 8 bits. the tcnt1h register can only be indirectly accessed by the cpu. when the cpu does an access to the tcnt1h i/o location, the cpu accesses the high byte temporary register (temp). the temporary register is updated with the tcnt1h value when the tcnt1l is read, and tcnt1h is updated with the temporary register value when tcnt1l is written. this allows the cpu to read or write the entire 16-bit counter value within one clock cycle via the 8-bit data bus. it is impor- tant to notice that there are special cases of writing to the tcnt1 register when the counter is counting that will give unpredictable results. the special cases are described in the sections where they are of importance. depending on the mode of operation used, the counter is cleared, incremented, or dec- remented at each timer clock (clk t 1 ). the clk t 1 can be generated from an external or internal clock source, selected by the clock select bits (cs12:0). when no clock source is selected (cs12:0 = 0) the timer is stopped. however, the tcnt1 value can be accessed by the cpu, independent of whether clk t 1 is present or not. a cpu write over- rides (has priority over) all counter clear or count operations. the counting sequence is determined by the setting of the waveform generation mode bits (wgm13:0) located in the timer/counter control registers a and b (tccr1a and tccr1b). there are close connections between how the counter behaves (counts) and how waveforms are generated on the output compare outputs oc1x. for more details about advanced counting sequences and waveform generation, see ?modes of opera- tion? on page 94. the timer/counter overflow (tov1) flag is set according to the mode of operation selected by the wgm13:0 bits. tov1 can be used for generating a cpu interrupt. temp (8-bit) data bus (8-bit) tcntn (16-bit

capture unit the timer/counter incorporates an input capture unit that can capture external events and give them a time-stamp indicating time of occurrence. the external signal indicating an event, or multiple events, can be applied via the icp1 pin or alternatively, via the analog comparator unit. the time-stamp s can then be used to calculate frequency, duty-cycle, and other features of the signal applied. alternatively the time-stamps can be used for creating a log of the events. the input capture unit is illustrated by the block diagram shown in figure 42. the ele- ments of the block diagram that are not directly a part of the input capture unit are gray shaded. the small ?n? in register and bit names indicates the timer/counter number. figure 42. input capture unit block diagram when a change of the logic level (an event) occurs on the input capture pin (icp1), alternatively on the analog comparator output (aco), and this change confirms to the setting of the edge detector, a capture will be triggered. when a capture is triggered, the 16-bit value of the counter (tcnt1) is written to the input capture register (icr1). the input capture flag (icf1) is set at the same system clock as the tcnt1 value is copied into icr1 register. if enabled (ticie1 = 1), the input capture flag generates an input capture interrupt. the icf1 flag is automatically cleared when the interrupt is executed. alternatively the icf1 flag can be cleared by software by writing a logical one to its i/o bit location. reading the 16-bit value in the input capture register (icr1) is done by first reading the low byte (icr1l) and then the high byte (i cr1h). when the low byte is read the high byte is copied into the high byte tempor ary register (temp). when the cpu reads the icr1h i/o location it will access the temp register. the icr1 register can only be written when using a waveform generation mode that utilizes the icr1 register for defining the counter?s top value. in these cases the waveform generation mode (wgm13:0) bits must be set before the top value can be written to the icr1 register. when writing the icr1 register the high byte must be writ- ten to the icr1h i/o location before the low byte is written to icr1l. icfn (int.req.) analog comparator write icrn (16-bit register) icrnh (8-bit) noise canceler icpn edge detector temp (8-bit) data bus (8-bit) icrnl (8-bit)

registers? on page 86. input capture trigger source the main trigger source for the input capture unit is the input capture pin (icp1). timer/counter1 can alternatively use the a nalog comparator output as trigger source for the input capture unit. the analog comparator is selected as trigger source by set- ting the analog comparator input capture (acic) bit in the analog comparator control and status register (acsr). be aware that changing trigger source can trigger a cap- ture. the input capture flag must therefore be cleared after the change. both the input capture pin (icp1) and the analog comparator output (aco) inputs are sampled using the same technique as for the t1 pin (figure 38 on page 81). the edge detector is also identical. however, when the noise canceler is enabled, additional logic is inserted before the edge detector, which increases the delay by four system clock cycles. note that the input of the nois e canceler and edge detector is always enabled unless the timer/counter is set in a waveform generation mode that uses icr1 to define top. an input capture can be triggered by software by controlling the port of the icp1 pin. noise canceler the noise canceler improves noise immunity by using a simple digital filtering scheme. the noise canceler input is monitored over four samples, and all four must be equal for changing the output that in turn is used by the edge detector. the noise canceler is enabled by setting the input capture noise canceler (icnc1) bit in timer/counter control register b (tccr1b). when enabled the noise canceler intro- duces additional four system clock cycles of delay from a change applied to the input, to the update of the icr1 register. the noise canceler uses the system clock and is there- fore not affected by the prescaler. using the input capture unit the main challenge when using the input capture unit is to assign enough processor capacity for handling the incoming events. the time between two events is critical. if the processor has not read the captured value in the icr1 register before the next event occurs, the icr1 will be overwritten with a new value. in this case the result of the cap- ture will be incorrect. when using the input capture interrupt, the icr1 register should be read as early in the interrupt handler routine as possible. even though the input capture interrupt has rela- tively high priority, the maximum interrupt response time is dependent on the maximum number of clock cycles it takes to handle any of the other interrupt requests. using the input capture unit in any mode of operation when the top value (resolution) is actively changed during operation, is not recommended. measurement of an external signal?s duty cycle requires that the trigger edge is changed after each capture. changing the edge sensing must be done as early as possible after the icr1 register has been read. after a change of the edge, the input capture flag (icf1) must be cleared by software (writing a logical one to the i/o bit location). for measuring frequency only, the clearing of the icf1 flag is not required (if an interrupt handler is used). output compare units the 16-bit comparator continuously compares tcnt1 with the output compare regis- ter (ocr1x). if tcnt equals ocr1x the comparator signals a match. a match will set the output compare flag (ocf1x) at the next timer clock cycle . if enabled (ocie1x = 1), the output compare flag generates an output compare interrupt. the ocf1x flag is automatically cleared when the interrupt is executed. alternatively the ocf1x flag can 92 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 be cleared by software by writing a logical one to its i/o bit location. the waveform gen- erator uses the match signal to generate an output according to operating mode set by the waveform generation mode (wgm13:0) bits and compare output mode (com1x1:0) bits. the top and bottom signals are used by the waveform generator for handling the special cases of the extreme values in some modes of operation (see ?modes of operation? on page 94.) a special feature of output compare unit a allows it to define the timer/counter top value (i.e., counter resolution). in addition to the counter resolution, the top value defines the period time for waveforms generated by the waveform generator. figure 43 shows a block diagram of the output compare unit. the small ?n? in the regis- ter and bit names indicates the device number (n = 1 for timer/counter1), and the ?x? indicates output compare unit (a/b). the elements of the block diagram that are not directly a part of the output compare unit are gray shaded. figure 43. output compare unit, block diagram the ocr1x register is double buffered when using any of the twelve pulse width modu- lation (pwm) modes. for the normal and clear timer on compare (ctc) modes of operation, the double buffering is disabled. the double buffering synchronizes the update of the ocr1x compare register to either top or bottom of the counting sequence. the synchronization prevents the occurrence of odd-length, non-symmetrical pwm pulses, thereby making the output glitch-free. the ocr1x register access may seem complex, but this is not case. when the double buffering is enabled, the cpu has access to the ocr1x buffer register, and if double buffering is disabled the cpu will access the ocr1x directly. the content of the ocr1x (buffer or compare) register is only changed by a write operation (the timer/counter does not update this register automatically as the tcnt1 and icr1 register). therefore ocr1x is not read via the high byte temporary register (temp). however, it is a good practice to read the low byte first as when accessing other 16-bit registers. writing the ocr1x registers must be done via the temp register since the compare of all 16 bits is done continuously. the high byte (ocr1xh) has to be written first. when the high ocfnx (int.req.) = (16-bit comparator ) ocrnx buffer (16-bit

upper 8-bits of either the ocr1x buffer or ocr1x compare reg- ister in the same system clock cycle. for more information of how to access the 16-bit registers refer to ?accessing 16-bit registers? on page 86. force output compare in non-pwm waveform generation modes, the match output of the comparator can be forced by writing a one to the force output compare (foc1x) bit. forcing compare match will not set the ocf1x flag or reload/clear the timer, but the oc1x pin will be updated as if a real compare match had o ccurred (the com11:0 bits settings define whether the oc1x pin is set, cleared or toggled). compare match blocking by tcnt1 write all cpu writes to the tcnt1 register will block any compare match that occurs in the next timer clock cycle, even when the timer is stopped. this feature allows ocr1x to be initialized to the same value as tcnt1 without triggering an interrupt when the timer/counter clock is enabled. using the output compare unit since writing tcnt1 in any mode of operat ion will block all compare matches for one timer clock cycle, there are risks involved when changing tcnt1 when using any of the output compare channels, independent of whether the timer/counter is running or not. if the value written to tcnt1 equals the ocr1x value, the compare match will be missed, resulting in incorrect waveform generation. do not write the tcnt1 equal to top in pwm modes with variable top values. the compare match for the top will be ignored and the counter will continue to 0xffff. similarly, do not write the tcnt1 value equal to bottom when the counter is downcounting. the setup of the oc1x should be performed before setting the data direction register for the port pin to output. the easiest way of setting the oc1x value is to use the force out- put compare (foc1x) strobe bits in normal mode. the oc1x register keeps its value even when changing between waveform generation modes. be aware that the com1x1:0 bits are not double buffered together with the compare value. changing the com1x1:0 bits will take effect immediately. compare match output unit the compare output mode (com1x1:0) bits have two functions. the waveform gener- ator uses the com1x1:0 bits for defining the output compare (oc1x) state at the next compare match. secondly the com1x1:0 bits control the oc1x pin output source. fig- ure 44 shows a simplified schematic of the logic affected by the com1x1:0 bit setting. the i/o registers, i/o bits, and i/o pins in the figure are shown in bold. only the parts of the general i/o port control registers (ddr and port) that are affected by the com1x1:0 bits are shown. when referring to the oc1x state, the reference is for the internal oc1x register, not the oc1x pin. if a system reset occur, the oc1x register is reset to ?0?. 94 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 44. compare match output unit, schematic the general i/o port function is overridden by the output compare (oc1x) from the waveform generator if either of the com1x1:0 bits are set. however, the oc1x pin direction (input or output) is still controlled by the data direction register (ddr) for the port pin. the data direction register bit for the oc1x pin (ddr_oc1x) must be set as output before the oc1x value is visible on the pin. the port override function is generally independent of the waveform generation mode, but there are some exceptions. refer to table 44, table 45 and table 46 for details. the design of the output compare pin logic allows initialization of the oc1x state before the output is enabled. note that some com1x1:0 bit settings are reserved for certain modes of operation. see ?16-bit timer/counter register description? on page 104. the com1x1:0 bits have no effect on the input capture unit. compare output mode and waveform generation the waveform generator uses the com1x1:0 bits differently in normal, ctc, and pwm modes. for all modes, setting the com1x1:0 = 0 tells the waveform generator that no action on the oc1x register is to be performed on the next compare match. for com- pare output actions in the non-pwm modes refer to table 44 on page 104. for fast pwm mode refer to table 45 on page 105, and for phase correct and phase and fre- quency correct pwm refer to table 46 on page 105. a change of the com1x1:0 bits state will have effect at the first compare match after the bits are written. for non-pwm modes, the action can be forced to have immediate effect by using the foc1x strobe bits. modes of operation the mode of operation, i.e., the behavior of the timer/counter and the output compare pins, is defined by the combination of the waveform generation mode (wgm13:0) and compare output mode (com1x1:0) bits. the compare output mode bits do not affect the counting sequence, while the waveform generation mode bits do. the com1x1:0 bits control whether the pwm output generated should be inverted or not (inverted or non-inverted pwm). for non-pwm modes the com1x1:0 bits control whether the out- put should be set, cleared or toggle at a compare match (see ?compare match output unit? on page 93.) for detailed timing information refer to ?timer/counter timing diagrams? on page 102. port

this mode the counting direction is always up (incrementing), and no counter clear is performed. the counter simply overruns when it passes its maximum 16-bit value (max = 0xffff) and then restarts from the bottom (0x0000). in normal operation the timer/counter over- flow flag (tov1) will be set in the same timer clock cycle as the tcnt1 becomes zero. the tov1 flag in this case behaves like a 17th bit, except that it is only set, not cleared. however, combined with the timer overflow interrupt that automatically clears the tov1 flag, the timer resolution can be increased by software. there are no special cases to consider in the normal mode, a new counter value can be written anytime. the input capture unit is easy to use in normal mode. however, observe that the maxi- mum interval between the external events must not exceed the resolution of the counter. if the interval between events are too long, the timer overflow interrupt or the prescaler must be used to extend the resolution for the capture unit. the output compare units can be used to generate interrupts at some given time. using the output compare to generate waveforms in normal mode is not recommended, since this will occupy too much of the cpu time. clear timer on compare match (ctc) mode in clear timer on compare or ctc mode (wgm13:0 = 4 or 12), the ocr1a or icr1 register are used to manipulate the counter resolution. in ctc mode the counter is cleared to zero when the counter value (tcnt1) matches either the ocr1a (wgm13:0 = 4) or the icr1 (wgm13:0 = 12). the ocr1a or icr1 define the top value for the counter, hence also its resolution. this mode allows greater control of the compare match output frequency. it also simplifies the operation of counting external events. the timing diagram for the ctc mode is shown in figure 45. the counter value (tcnt1) increases until a compare match occurs with either ocr1a or icr1, and then counter (tcnt1) is cleared. figure 45. ctc mode, timing diagram an interrupt can be generated at each time the counter value reaches the top value by either using the ocf1a or icf1 flag according to the register used to define the top value. if the interrupt is enabled, the interrupt handler routine can be used for updating the top value. however, changing the top to a value close to bottom when the counter is running with none or a low prescaler value must be done with care since the ctc mode does not have the double buffering feature. if the new value written to ocr1a or icr1 is lower than the current value of tcnt1, the counter will miss the com- pare match. the counter will then have to count to its maximum value (0xffff) and wrap around starting at 0x0000 before the compare match can occur. in many cases tcntn ocna (toggle) ocna interrupt flag set or icfn interrupt flag set (interrupt on top) 1 4 period 2 3 (comna1:0 = 1) 96 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 this feature is not desirable. an alternative will then be to use the fast pwm mode using ocr1a for defining top (wgm13:0 = 15) since the ocr1a then will be double buffered. for generating a waveform output in ctc mode, the oc1a output can be set to toggle its logical level on each compare match by setting the compare output mode bits to tog- gle mode (com1a1:0 = 1). the oc1a value will not be visible on the port pin unless the data direction for the pin is set to output (ddr_oc1a = 1). the waveform generated will have a maximum frequency of f oc 1 a = f clk_i/o /2 when ocr1a is set to zero (0x0000). the waveform frequency is defined by the following equation: the n variable represents the prescaler factor (1, 8, 64, 256, or 1024). as for the normal mode of operation, the tov1 flag is set in the same timer clock cycle that the counter counts from max to 0x0000. fast pwm mode the fast pulse width modulation or fast pwm mode (wgm13:0 = 5,6,7,14, or 15) pro- vides a high frequency pwm waveform generation option. the fast pwm differs from the other pwm options by its single-slope operation. the counter counts from bottom to top then restarts from bottom. in non-inverting compare output mode, the output compare (oc1x) is set on the compare match between tcnt1 and ocr1x, and cleared at top. in inverting compare output mode output is cleared on compare match and set at top. due to the single-slope operation, the operating frequency of the fast pwm mode can be twice as high as the phase correct and phase and frequency correct pwm modes that use dual-slope operation. this high frequency makes the fast pwm mode well suited for power regulation, rectification, and dac applications. high fre- quency allows physically small sized exte rnal components (coils, capacitors), hence reduces total system cost. the pwm resolution for fast pwm can be fixed to 8-, 9-, or 10-bit, or defined by either icr1 or ocr1a. the minimum resolution allowed is 2-bit (icr1 or ocr1a set to 0x0003), and the maximum resolution is 16-bit (icr1 or ocr1a set to max). the pwm resolution in bits can be calculated by using the following equation: in fast pwm mode the counter is incremented until the counter value matches either one of the fixed values 0x00ff, 0x01ff, or 0x03ff (wgm13:0 = 5, 6, or 7), the value in icr1 (wgm13:0 = 14), or the value in ocr1a (wgm13:0 = 15). the counter is then cleared at the following timer clock cycle. the timing diagram for the fast pwm mode is shown in figure 46. the figure shows fast pwm mode when ocr1a or icr1 is used to define top. the tcnt1 value is in the timing diagram shown as a histogram for illus- trating the single-slope operation. the diagram includes non-inverted and inverted pwm outputs. the small horizontal line marks on the tcnt1 slopes represent compare matches between ocr1x and tcnt1. the oc1x interrupt flag will be set when a com- pare match occurs. f ocna f clk_i/o 2 n 1 ocrna + () ?? -------------------------------------------------- - = r fpwm top 1 + () log 2 () log

addition the oc1a or icf1 flag is set at the same timer clock cycle as tov1 is set when either ocr1a or icr1 is used for defining the top value. if one of the interrupts are enabled, the interrupt handler routine can be used for updating the top and compare values. when changing the top value the program must ensure that the new top value is higher or equal to the value of all of the compare registers. if the top value is lower than any of the compare registers, a compare match will never occur between the tcnt1 and the ocr1x. note that when using fixed top values the unused bits are masked to zero when any of the ocr1x registers are written. the procedure for updating icr1 differs from updating ocr1a when used for defining the top value. the icr1 register is not double buffered. this means that if icr1 is changed to a low value when the counter is running with none or a low prescaler value, there is a risk that the new icr1 value written is lower than the current value of tcnt1. the result will then be that the counter will miss the compare match at the top value. the counter will then have to count to the max value (0xffff) and wrap around start- ing at 0x0000 before the compare match can occur. the ocr1a register however, is double buffered. this feature allows the ocr1a i/o location to be written anytime. when the ocr1a i/o location is written the value written will be put into the ocr1a buffer register. the ocr1a compare regi ster will then be updated with the value in the buffer register at the next timer clock cycle the tcnt1 matches top. the update is done at the same timer clock cycle as the tcnt1 is cleared and the tov1 flag is set. using the icr1 register for defining top works well when using fixed top values. by using icr1, the ocr1a register is free to be used for generating a pwm output on oc1a. however, if the base pwm frequency is actively changed (by changing the top value), using the ocr1a as top is clearly a better choice due to its double buffer feature. in fast pwm mode, the compare units allow generation of pwm waveforms on the oc1x pins. setting the com1x1:0 bits to 2 will produce a non-inverted pwm and an inverted pwm output can be generated by setting the com1x1:0 to 3 (see table 44 on page 104). the actual oc1x value will only be visible on the port pin if the data direction for the port pin is set as output (ddr_oc1x). the pwm waveform is generated by tcntn ocrnx / top update and tovn interrupt flag set and ocna interrupt flag set ocna interrupt flag set (interrupt on top) 1 7 period 2 3 4 5 6 8 ocnx ocnx (comnx1:0

cycle the counter is cleared (changes from top to bottom). the pwm frequency for the output can be calculated by the following equation: the n variable represents the prescaler divider (1, 8, 64, 256, or 1024). the extreme values for the ocr1x register represents special cases when generating a pwm waveform output in the fast pwm mode. if the ocr1x is set equal to bottom (0x0000) the output will be a narrow spike for each top+1 timer clock cycle. setting the ocr1x equal to top will result in a constant high or low output (depending on the polar- ity of the output set by the com1x1:0 bits.) a frequency (with 50% duty cycle) waveform output in fast pwm mode can be achieved by setting oc1a to toggle its logical level on each compare match (com1a1:0 = 1). this applies only if ocr1a is used to define the top value (wgm13:0 = 15). the wave- form generated will have a maximum frequency of f oc 1 a = f clk_i/o /2 when ocr1a is set to zero (0x0000). this feature is similar to the oc1a toggle in ctc mode, except the dou- ble buffer feature of the output compare unit is enabled in the fast pwm mode. phase correct pwm mode the phase correct pulse width modulation or phase correct pwm mode (wgm13:0 = 1,2,3,10, or 11) provides a high resolution phase correct pwm waveform generation option. the phase correct pwm mode is, like the phase and frequency correct pwm mode, based on a dual-slope operation. the counter counts repeatedly from bottom (0x0000) to top and then from top to bottom. in non-inverting compare output mode, the output compare (oc1x) is cleared on the compare match between tcnt1 and ocr1x while upcounting, and set on the compare match while downcounting. in inverting output compare mode, the operation is inverted. the dual-slope operation has lower maximum operation frequency than single slope operation. however, due to the symmetric feature of the dual-slope pwm modes, these modes are preferred for motor control applications. the pwm resolution for the phase correct pwm mode can be fixed to 8-, 9-, or 10-bit, or defined by either icr1 or ocr1a. the minimum resolution allowed is 2-bit (icr1 or ocr1a set to 0x0003), and the maximum resolution is 16-bit (icr1 or ocr1a set to max). the pwm resolution in bits can be calculated by using the following equation: in phase correct pwm mode the counter is incremented until the counter value matches either one of the fixed values 0x00ff, 0x01ff, or 0x03ff (wgm13:0 = 1, 2, or 3), the value in icr1 (wgm13:0 = 10), or the value in ocr1a (wgm13:0 = 11). the counter has then reached the top and changes the count direction. the tcnt1 value will be equal to top for one timer clock cycle. the timing diagram for the phase correct pwm mode is shown on figure 47. the figure shows phase correct pwm mode when ocr1a or icr1 is used to define top. the tcnt1 value is in the timing diagram shown as a histogram for illustrating the dual-slope operation. the diagram includes non-inverted and inverted pwm outputs. the small horizontal line marks on the tcnt1 slopes repre- sent compare matches between ocr1x and tcnt1. the oc1x interrupt flag will be set when a compare match occurs. f ocnxpwm f

timing diagram the timer/counter overflow flag (tov1) is set each time the counter reaches bot- tom. when either ocr1a or icr1 is used for defining the top value, the oc1a or icf1 flag is set accordingly at the same timer clock cycle as the ocr1x registers are updated with the double buffer value (at top). the interrupt flags can be used to gener- ate an interrupt each time the counter reaches the top or bottom value. when changing the top value the program must ensure that the new top value is higher or equal to the value of all of the compare registers. if the top value is lower than any of the compare registers, a compare match will never occur between the tcnt1 and the ocr1x. note that when using fixed top values, the unused bits are masked to zero when any of the ocr1x registers are written. as the third period shown in figure 47 illustrates, changing the top actively while the timer/counter is running in the phase correct mode can result in an unsymmetrical output. the reason for this can be found in the time of update of the ocr1x register. since the ocr1x update occurs at top, the pwm period starts and ends at top. this implies that the length of the fall- ing slope is determined by the previous top value, while the length of the rising slope is determined by the new top value. when these two values differ the two slopes of the period will differ in length. the difference in length gives the unsymmetrical result on the output. it is recommended to use the phase and frequency correct mode instead of the phase correct mode when changing the top value while the timer/counter is running. when using a static top value there are practically no differences between the two modes of operation. in phase correct pwm mode, the compare units allow generation of pwm waveforms on the oc1x pins. setting the com1x1:0 bits to 2 will produce a non-inverted pwm and an inverted pwm output can be generated by setting the com1x1:0 to 3 (see table 44 on page 104). the actual oc1x value will only be visible on the port pin if the data direction for the port pin is set as output (ddr_oc1x). the pwm waveform is generated by set- ting (or clearing) the oc1x register at the compare match between ocr1x and tcnt1 when the counter increments, and clearing (or setting) the oc1x register at compare match between ocr1x and tcnt1 when the counter decrements. the pwm

or 1024). the extreme values for the ocr1x register represent special cases when generating a pwm waveform output in the phase correct pwm mode. if the ocr1x is set equal to bottom the output will be continuously low and if set equal to top the output will be continuously high for non-inverted pwm mode. for inverted pwm the output will have the opposite logic values. if ocr1a is us ed to define the top value (wgm13:0 = 11) and com1a1:0 = 1, the oc1a output will toggle with a 50% duty cycle. phase and frequency correct pwm mode the phase and frequency correct pulse width modulation, or phase and frequency cor- rect pwm mode (wgm13:0 = 8 or 9) provides a high resolution phase and frequency correct pwm waveform generation option. the phase and frequency correct pwm mode is, like the phase correct pwm mode, based on a dual-slope operation. the counter counts repeatedly from bottom (0x0000) to top and then from top to bot- tom. in non-inverting compare output mode, the output compare (oc1x) is cleared on the compare match between tcnt1 and ocr1x while upcounting, and set on the compare match while downcounting. in inverting compare output mode, the operation is inverted. the dual-slope operation gives a lower maximum operation frequency com- pared to the single-slope operation. however, due to the symmetric feature of the dual- slope pwm modes, these modes are preferred for motor control applications. the main difference between the phase co rrect, and the phase and frequency correct pwm mode is the time the ocr1x register is updated by the ocr1x buffer register, (see figure 47 and figure 48). the pwm resolution for the phase and frequency correct pwm mode can be defined by either icr1 or ocr1a. the minimum resolution allowed is 2-bit (icr1 or ocr1a set to 0x0003), and the maximum resolution is 16-bit (icr1 or ocr1a set to max). the pwm resolution in bits can be calculated using the following equation: in phase and frequency correct pwm mode the counter is incremented until the counter value matches either the value in icr1 (wgm13:0 = 8), or the value in ocr1a (wgm13:0 = 9). the counter has then reached the top and changes the count direc- tion. the tcnt1 value will be equal to top for one timer clock cycle. the timing diagram for the phase correct and frequency correct pwm mode is shown on figure 48. the figure shows phase and frequency correct pwm mode when ocr1a or icr1 is used to define top. the tcnt1 value is in the timing diagram shown as a histogram for illustrating the dual-slope operation. the diagram includes non-inverted and inverted pwm outputs. the small horizontal line marks on the tcnt1 slopes represent compare matches between ocr1x and tcnt1. the oc1x interrupt flag will be set when a com- pare match occurs. f

correct pwm mode, timing diagram the timer/counter overflow flag (tov1) is set at the same timer clock cycle as the ocr1x registers are updated with the double buffer value (at bottom). when either ocr1a or icr1 is used for defining the top value, the oc1a or icf1 flag set when tcnt1 has reached top. the interrupt flags can then be used to generate an interrupt each time the counter reaches the top or bottom value. when changing the top value the program must ensure that the new top value is higher or equal to the value of all of the compare registers. if the top value is lower than any of the compare registers, a compare match will never occur between the tcnt1 and the ocr1x. as figure 48 shows the output generated is, in contrast to the phase correct mode, sym- metrical in all periods. since the ocr1x registers are updated at bottom, the length of the rising and the falling slopes will al ways be equal. this gives symmetrical output pulses and is therefore frequency correct. using the icr1 register for defining top works well when using fixed top values. by using icr1, the ocr1a register is free to be used for generating a pwm output on oc1a. however, if the base pwm frequency is actively changed by changing the top value, using the ocr1a as top is clearly a better choice due to its double buffer feature. in phase and frequency correct pwm mode, the compare units allow generation of pwm waveforms on the oc1x pins. setting the com1x1:0 bits to 2 will produce a non- inverted pwm and an inverted pwm output can be generated by setting the com1x1:0 to 3 (see table on page 105). the actual oc1x value will only be visible on the port pin if the data direction for the port pin is set as output (ddr_oc1x). the pwm waveform is generated by setting (or clearing) the oc1x register at the compare match between ocr1x and tcnt1 when the counter increments, and clearing (or setting) the oc1x register at compare match between ocr1x and tcnt1 when the counter decrements. the pwm frequency for the output when using phase and frequency correct pwm can be calculated by the following equation: the n variable represents the prescaler divider (1, 8, 64,

information on when interrupt flags are set, and when the ocr1x register is updated with the ocr1x buffer value (only for modes utilizing double buffering). figure 49 shows a timing diagram for the

zero, a falling (negative) edge is used as trigger, and when the ices1 bit is written to one, a rising (positive) edge will trigger the capture. when a capture is triggered according to the ices1 setting, the counter value is copied into the input capture register (icr1). the event will also set the input capture flag (icf1), and this can be used to cause an input capture interrupt, if this interrupt is enabled. when the icr1 is used as top value (see description of the wgm13:0 bits located in the tccr1a and the tccr1b register), the icp1 is disconnected and consequently the input capture function is disabled. bit 5 ? reserved bit this bit is reserved for future use. for ensuring compatibility with future devices, this bit must be written to zero when tccr1b is written. bit 4:3

to the timer/counter unit 16-bit counter. to ensure that both the high and low bytes are read and written simultaneously when the cpu accesses these registers, the access is performed using an 8-bit tempo- rary high byte register (temp). this temporary register is shared by all the other 16-bit registers. see ?accessing 16-bit registers? on page 86. modifying the counter (tcnt1) while the counter is running introduces a risk of missing a compare match between tcnt1 and one of the ocr1x registers. writing to the tcnt1 register blocks (removes) the compare match on the following timer clock for all compare units. output compare register 1 a ? ocr1ah and ocr1al output compare register 1 b ? ocr1bh and ocr1bl the output compare registers contain a 16-bit value that is continuously compared

ensure that both the high and low bytes are written simultaneously when the cpu writes to these registers, the access is performed using an 8-bit temporary high byte register (temp). this temporary

are described in their respective timer sections. bit 5 ? icf1: timer/counter1, input capture flag this flag is set when a capture event occurs on the icp1 pin. when the input capture register (icr1) is set by the wgm13:0 to be used as the top value, the icf1 flag is set when the counter reaches the top value. icf1 is automatically cleared when the input capture interrupt vector is executed. alter- natively, icf1 can be cleared by writing a logic one to its bit location. bit 4 ? ocf1a: timer/counter1, output compare a match flag this flag is set in the timer clock cycle after the counter (tcnt1) value matches the out- put compare register a (ocr1a). note that a forced output compare (foc1a) strobe will not set the ocf1a flag. ocf1a is automatically cleared when the output compare match a interrupt vector is executed. alternatively, ocf1a can be cleared by writing a logic one to its bit location. bit 3 ? ocf1b: timer/counter1, output compare b match flag this flag is set in the

cleared when the output compare match b interrupt vector is executed. alternatively, ocf1b can be cleared by writing a logic one to its bit location. bit 2 ? tov1: timer/counter1, overflow flag the

pwm and asynchronous operation timer/counter2 is a general purpose, single channel, 8-bit timer/counter module. the main features are: single channel counter clear timer on compare match (auto reload) glitch-free, phase correct pulse width modulator (pwm) frequency generator 10-bit clock prescaler overflow and compare match interrupt sources (tov2 and ocf2) allows clocking from external 32 khz watch crystal independent of the i/o clock overview a simplified block diagram of the 8-bit timer/counter is shown in figure 53. for the actual placement of i/o pins, refer to ?pinouts atmega16? on page 2. cpu accessible i/o registers, including i/o bits and i/o pins, are shown in bold. the device-specific i/o register and bit locations are listed in the ?8-bit timer/counter register description? on page 121. figure 53. 8-bit timer/counter block diagram registers the timer/counter (tcnt2) and output compare register (ocr2) are 8-bit registers. interrupt request (shorten as int.req.) signals are all visible in the timer interrupt flag register (tifr). all interrupts are individually masked with the timer interrupt mask register (timsk). tifr and timsk are not shown in the figure since these registers are shared by other timer units. the timer/counter can be clocked internally, via the prescaler, or asynchronously clocked from the tosc1/2 pins, as detailed later in this section. the asynchronous operation is controlled by the asynchronous status register (assr). the clock select logic block controls which clock source the timer/counter uses to increment (or decre- ment) its value. the timer/counter is inactive when no clock source is selected. the output from the clock select logic is referred to as the timer clock (clk t2 ). timer/counter data b u s =

timer/counter value at all times. the result of the compare can be used by the wave- form generator to generate a pwm or variable frequency output on the output compare pin (oc2). see ?output compare unit? on page 113. for details. the compare match event will also set the compare flag (ocf2) which can be used to generate an output compare interrupt request. definitions many register and bit references in this document are written in general form. a lower case ?n? replaces the timer/counter number, in this case 2. however, when using the register or bit defines in a program, the precise form must be used (i.e., tcnt2 for accessing timer/counter2 counter value and so on). the definitions in table 49 are also used extensively throughout the document. timer/counter clock sources the timer/counter can be clocked by an internal synchronous or an external asynchro- nous clock source. the clock source clk t2 is by default equal to the mcu clock, clk i/o . when the as2 bit in the assr register is written to logic one, the clock source is taken from the timer/counter oscillator connected to tosc1 and tosc2. for details on asynchronous operation, see ?asynchronous status register ? assr? on page 124. for details on clock sources and prescaler, see ?timer/counter prescaler? on page 127. counter unit the main part of the 8-bit timer/counter is the programmable bi-directional counter unit. figure 54 shows a block diagram of the counter and its surrounding environment. figure 54. counter unit block diagram signal description (internal signals): count increment or decrement tcnt2 by 1. direction selects between increment and decrement. clear clear tcnt2 (set all bits to zero). clk t 2 timer/counter clock. table 49. definitions bottom the counter reaches the bottom when it becomes zero (0x00). max the counter reaches its maximum when it becomes 0xff (decimal 255). top the counter reaches the top when it becomes equal to the highest value in the count sequence. the top value can be assigned to be the fixed value 0xff (max) or the value stored in the ocr2 register. the assignment is dependent on the mode of operation. data b u s tcntn control logic count tovn (int.req.) top bottom direction clear tosc1 t/c oscillator tosc2 prescaler clk i/o clk tn 113 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 top signalizes that tcnt2 has reached maximum value. bottom signalizes that tcnt2 has reached minimum value (zero). depending on the mode of operation used, the counter is cleared, incremented, or dec- remented at each timer clock (clk t2 ). clk t2 can be generated from an external or internal clock source, selected by the clock select bits (cs22:0). when no clock source is selected (cs22:0 = 0) the timer is stopped. however, the tcnt2 value can be accessed by the cpu, regardless of whether clk t2 is present or not. a cpu write overrides (has priority over) all counter clear or count operations. the counting sequence is determined by the setting of the wgm21 and wgm20 bits located in the timer/counter control register (tccr2). there are close connections between how the counter behaves (counts) and how waveforms are generated on the output compare output oc2. for more det ails about advanced counting sequences and waveform generation, see ?modes of operation? on page 115. the timer/counter overflow (tov2) flag is set according to the mode of operation selected by the wgm21:0 bits. tov2 can be used for generating a cpu interrupt. output compare unit the 8-bit comparator continuously compares tcnt2 with the output compare register (ocr2). whenever tcnt2 equals ocr2, the comparator signals a match. a match will set the output compare flag (ocf2) at the next timer clock cycle. if enabled (ocie2 = 1), the output compare flag generates an output compare interrupt. the ocf2 flag is automatically cleared when the interrupt is executed. alternatively, the ocf2 flag can be cleared by software by writing a logical one to its i/o bit location. the waveform gen- erator uses the match signal to generate an output according to operating mode set by the wgm21:0 bits and compare output mode (com21:0) bits. the max and bottom sig- nals are used by the waveform generator for handling the special cases of the extreme values in some modes of operation (?modes of operation? on page 115). figure 55 shows a block diagram of the output compare unit. figure 55. output compare unit, block diagram ocfn (int.req.) = (8-bit comparator ) ocrn ocxy data b u s tcntn wgmn1:0 waveform generator top focn comn1:0 bottom 114 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 the ocr2 register is double buffered when using any of the pulse width modulation (pwm) modes. for the normal and clear timer on compare (ctc) modes of operation, the double buffering is disabled. the double buffering synchronizes the update of the ocr2 compare register to either top or bottom of the counting sequence. the synchro- nization prevents the occurrence of odd-length, non-symmetrical pwm pulses, thereby making the output glitch-free. the ocr2 register access may seem complex, but this is not case. when the double buffering is enabled, the cpu has access to the ocr2 buffer register, and if double buffering is disabled the cpu will access the ocr2 directly. force output compare in non-pwm waveform generation modes, the match output of the comparator can be forced by writing a one to the force output compare (foc2) bit. forcing compare match will not set the ocf2 flag or reload/clear the timer, but the oc2 pin will be updated as if a real compare match had o ccurred (the com21:0 bits settings define whether the oc2 pin is set, cleared or toggled). compare match blocking by tcnt2 write all cpu write operations to the tcnt2 register will block any compare match that occurs in the next timer clock cycle, even when the timer is stopped. this feature allows ocr2 to be initialized to the same value as tcnt2 without triggering an interrupt when the timer/counter clock is enabled. using the output compare unit since writing tcnt2 in any mode of operat ion will block all compare matches for one timer clock cycle, there are risks involved when changing tcnt2 when using the output compare channel, independently of whether the timer/counter is running or not. if the value written to tcnt2 equals the ocr2 va lue, the compare match will be missed, resulting in incorrect waveform generation. similarly, do not write the tcnt2 value equal to bottom when the counter is downcounting. the setup of the oc2 should be performed before setting the data direction register for the port pin to output. the easiest way of setting the oc2 value is to use the force out- put compare (foc2) strobe bit in normal mode. the oc2 register keeps its value even when changing between waveform generation modes. be aware that the com21:0 bits are not double buffered together with the compare value. changing the com21:0 bits will take effect immediately. compare match output unit the compare output mode (com21:0) bits have two functions. the waveform genera- tor uses the com21:0 bits for defining the output compare (oc2) state at the next compare match. also, the com21:0 bits c ontrol the oc2 pin output source. figure 56 shows a simplified schematic of the logic affected by the com21:0 bit setting. the i/o registers, i/o bits, and i/o pins in the figure are shown in bold. only the parts of the general i/o port control registers (ddr and port) that are affected by the com21:0 bits are shown. when referring to the oc2 state, the reference is for the internal oc2 register, not the oc2 pin. 115 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 56. compare match output unit, schematic the general i/o port function is overridden by the output compare (oc2) from the waveform generator if either of the com21:0 bits are set. however, the oc2 pin direc- tion (input or output) is still controlled by the data direction register (ddr) for the port pin. the data direction register bit for the oc2 pin (ddr_oc2) must be set as output before the oc2 value is visible on the pin. the port override function is independent of the waveform generation mode. the design of the output compare pin logic allows initialization of the oc2 state before the output is enabled. note that some com21:0 bit settings are reserved for certain modes of operation. see ?8-bit timer/counter register description? on page 121. compare output mode and waveform generation the waveform generator uses the com21:0 bits differently in normal, ctc, and pwm modes. for all modes, setting the com21:0 = 0 tells the waveform generator that no action on the oc2 register is to be performed on the next compare match. for compare output actions in the non-pwm modes refer to table 51 on page 122. for fast pwm mode, refer to table 52 on page 122, and for phase correct pwm refer to table 53 on page 123. a change of the com21:0 bits state will have effect at the first compare match after the bits are written. for non-pwm modes, the action can be forced to have immediate effect by using the foc2 strobe bits. modes of operation the mode of operation, i.e., the behavior of the timer/counter and the output compare pins, is defined by the combination of the waveform generation mode (wgm21:0) and compare output mode (com21:0) bits. the compare output mode bits do not affect the counting sequence, while the waveform generation mode bits do. the com21:0 bits control whether the pwm output generated should be inverted or not (inverted or non-inverted pwm). for non-pwm modes the com21:0 bits control whether the output should be set, cleared, or toggled at a compare match (see ?compare match output unit? on page 114.). for detailed timing information refer to ?timer/counter timing diagrams? on page 119. normal mode the simplest mode of operation is the normal mode (wgm21:0 = 0). in this mode the counting direction is always up (incrementing), and no counter clear is performed. the counter simply overruns when it passes its maximum 8-bit value (top = 0xff) and then port ddr dq dq ocn pin ocn dq waveform generator comn1 comn0 0 1 data b u s focn clk i/o 116 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 restarts from the bottom (0x00). in normal operation the timer/counter overflow flag ( tov2 ) will be set in the same timer clock cycle as the tcnt2 becomes zero. the tov2 flag in this case behaves like a ninth bit, except that it is only set, not cleared. however, combined with the timer overflow interrupt that automatically clears the tov2 flag, the timer resolution can be increased by software. there are no special cases to consider in the normal mode, a new counter value can be written anytime. the output compare unit can be used to generate interrupts at some given time. using the output compare to generate waveforms in normal mode is not recommended, since this will occupy too much of the cpu time. clear timer on compare match (ctc) mode in clear timer on compare or ctc mode (wgm21:0 = 2), the ocr2 register is used to manipulate the counter resolution. in ctc mode the counter is cleared to zero when the counter value (tcnt2) matches the ocr2. the ocr2 defines the top value for the counter, hence also its resolution. this mode allows greater control of the compare match output frequency. it also simplifies the operation of counting external events. the timing diagram for the ctc mode is shown in figure 57. the counter value (tcnt2) increases until a compare match occurs between tcnt2 and ocr2, and then counter (tcnt2) is cleared. figure 57. ctc mode, timing diagram an interrupt can be generated each time the counter value reaches the top value by using the ocf2 flag. if the interrupt is enabled, the interrupt handler routine can be used for updating the top value. however, changing the top to a value close to bottom when the counter is running with none or a low prescaler value must be done with care since the ctc mode does not have the double buffering feature. if the new value written to ocr2 is lower than the current value of tcnt2, the counter will miss the compare match. the counter will then have to count to its maximum value (0xff) and wrap around starting at 0x00 before the compare match can occur. for generating a waveform output in ctc mode, the oc2 output can be set to toggle its logical level on each compare match by setting the compare output mode bits to toggle mode (com21:0 = 1). the oc2 value will not be visible on the port pin unless the data direction for the pin is set to output. the waveform generated will have a maximum fre- quency of f oc2 = f clk_i/o /2 when ocr2 is set to zero (0x00). the waveform frequency is defined by the following equation: tcntn ocn (toggle) ocn interrupt flag set 1 4 period 2 3 (comn1:0 = 1) f ocn f clk_i/o 2 n 1 ocrn + () ?? ---------------------------------------------- - = 117 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 the n variable represents the prescale factor (1, 8, 32, 64, 128, 256, or 1024). as for the normal mode of operation, the tov2 flag is set in the same timer clock cycle that the counter counts from max to 0x00. fast pwm mode the fast pulse width modulation or fast pwm mode (wgm21:0 = 3) provides a high fre- quency pwm waveform generation option. the fast pwm differs from the other pwm option by its single-slope operation. the counter counts from bottom to max then restarts from bottom. in non-inverting compare output mode, the output compare (oc2) is cleared on the compare match between tcnt2 and ocr2, and set at bot- tom. in inverting compare output mode, the output is set on compare match and cleared at bottom. due to the single-slope operation, the operating frequency of the fast pwm mode can be twice as high as the phase correct pwm mode that uses dual- slope operation. this high frequency makes the fast pwm mode well suited for power regulation, rectification, and dac applicat ions. high frequency allows physically small sized external components (coils, capacitors), and therefore reduces total system cost. in fast pwm mode, the counter is incremented until the counter value matches the max value. the counter is then cleared at the following timer clock cycle. the timing diagram for the fast pwm mode is shown in figure 58. the tcnt2 value is in the timing diagram shown as a histogram for illustrating the single-slope operation. the diagram includes non-inverted and inverted pwm outputs. the small horizontal line marks on the tcnt2 slopes represent compare matches between ocr2 and tcnt2. figure 58. fast pwm mode, timing diagram the timer/counter overflow flag ( tov2 ) is set each time the counter reaches max. if the interrupt is enabled, the interrupt handler routine can be used for updating the com- pare value. in fast pwm mode, the compare unit allows generation of pwm waveforms on the oc2 pin. setting the com21:0 bits to 2 will produce a non-inverted pwm and an inverted pwm output can be generated by setting the com21:0 to 3 (see table 52 on page 122). the actual oc2 value will only be visible on the port pin if the data direction for the port pin is set as output. the pwm waveform is generated by setting (or clearing) the oc2 register at the compare match between ocr2 and tcnt2, and clearing (or setting) the oc2 register at the timer clock cycle the counter is cleared (changes from max to bottom).

calculated by the following equation: the n variable represents the prescale factor (1, 8, 32, 64, 128, 256, or 1024). the extreme values for the ocr2 register represent special cases when generating a pwm waveform output in the fast pwm mode. if the ocr2 is set equal to bottom, the output will be a narrow spike for each max+1 timer clock cycle. setting the ocr2 equal to max will result in a constantly high or low output (depending on the polarity of the out- put set by the com21:0 bits.) a frequency (with 50% duty cycle) waveform output in fast pwm mode can be achieved by setting oc2 to toggle its logical leve l on each compare match (com21:0 = 1). the waveform generated will have a maximum frequency of f oc2 = f clk_i/o /2 when ocr2 is set to zero. this feature is similar to the oc2 toggle in ctc mode, except the double buffer feature of the output compare unit is enabled in the fast pwm mode. phase correct pwm mode the phase correct pwm mode (wgm21:0 = 1) provides a high resolution phase correct pwm waveform generation option. the phase correct pwm mode is based on a dual- slope operation. the counter counts repeatedly from bottom to max and then from max to bottom. in non-inverting compare output mode, the output compare (oc2) is cleared on the compare match between tcnt2 and ocr2 while upcounting, and set on the compare match while downcounting. in inverting output compare mode, the operation is inverted. the dual-slope operation has lower maximum operation frequency than single slope operation. however, due to the symmetric feature of the dual-slope pwm modes, these modes are preferred for motor control applications. the pwm resolution for the phase correct pwm mode is fixed to 8 bits. in phase correct pwm mode the counter is incremented until the counter value matches max. when the counter reaches max, it changes the count direction. the tcnt2 value will be equal to max for one timer clock cycle. the timing diagram for the phase correct pwm mode is shown on figure 59. the tcnt2 value is in the timing diagram shown as a histogram for illustrating the dual-slope operation. the diagram includes non-inverted and inverted pwm outputs. the small horizontal line marks on the tcnt2 slopes represent compare matches between ocr2 and tcnt2. f ocnpwm f clk_i/o n 256 ? ------------------ = 119 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 59. phase correct pwm mode, timing diagram the timer/counter overflow flag ( tov2 ) is set each time the counter reaches bot- tom. the interrupt flag can be used to generate an interrupt each time the counter reaches the bottom value. in phase correct pwm mode, the compare unit allows generation of pwm waveforms on the oc2 pin. setting the com21:0 bits to 2 will produce a non-inverted pwm. an inverted pwm output can be generated by setting the com21:0 to 3 (see table 53 on page 123). the actual oc2 value will only be visible on the port pin if the data direction for the port pin is set as output. the pwm waveform is generated by clearing (or setting) the oc2 register at the compare match between ocr2 and tcnt2 when the counter increments, and setting (or clearing) the oc2 register at compare match between ocr2 and tcnt2 when the counter decrements. the pwm frequency for the output when using phase correct pwm can be calculated by the following equation: the n variable represents the prescale factor (1, 8, 32, 64, 128, 256, or 1024). the extreme values for the ocr2 register represent special cases when generating a pwm waveform output in the phase correct pwm mode. if the ocr2 is set equal to bottom, the output will be continuously low and if set equal to max the output will be continuously high for non-inverted pwm mode. for inverted pwm the output will have the opposite logic values. timer/counter timing diagrams the following figures show the timer/counter in synchronous mode, and the timer clock (clk t2 ) is therefore shown as a clock enable signal. in asynchronous mode, clk i/o should be replaced by the timer/counter oscillator clock. the figures include information on when interrupt flags are set. figure 60 contains timing data for basic timer/counter operation. the figure shows the count sequence close to the max value in all modes other than phase correct pwm mode. tovn interrupt flag set ocn interrupt flag set 1 2 3 tcntn period ocn ocn (comn1:0 = 2) (comn1:0 = 3)

output compare the foc2 bit is only active when the wgm bits specify a non-pwm mode. however, for ensuring compatibility with future devices, this bit must be set to zero when tccr2 is written when operating in pwm mode. when writing a logical one to the foc2 bit, an immediate compare match is forced on the waveform generation unit. the oc2 output is changed according to its com21:0 bits setting. note that the foc2 bit is implemented as a strobe. therefore it is the value present in the com21:0 bits that determines the effect of the forced compare. a foc2 strobe will not generate any interrupt, nor will it clear the timer in ctc mode using ocr2 as top. the foc2 bit is always read as zero. bit 6, 3 ? wgm21:0: waveform generation mode these bits control the counting sequence of the counter, the source for the maximum (top) counter value, and what type of waveform generation to be used. modes of oper- ation supported by the timer/counter unit are: normal mode, clear timer on compare match (ctc) mode, and two types of pulse width modulation (pwm) modes. see table 50 and ?modes of operation? on page 115. o cfn o crn c ntn c tc) top top - 1 top bottom bottom + 1 c lk i/o c

com21:0: compare match output mode these bits control the output compare pin (oc2) behavior. if one or both of the com21:0 bits are set, the oc2 output overrides the normal port functionality of the i/o pin it is connected to. however, note that t he data direction register (ddr) bit corre- sponding to oc2 pin must be set in order to enable the output driver. when oc2 is connected to the pin, the function of the com21:0 bits depends on the wgm21:0 bit setting. table 51 shows the com21:0 bit functionality when the wgm21:0 bits are set to a normal or ctc mode (non-pwm). table 52 shows the com21:0 bit functionality when the wgm21:0 bits are set to fast pwm mode. note: 1. a special case occurs when ocr2 equals top and com21 is set. in this case, the compare match is ignored, but the set or clear is done at top. see ?fast pwm mode? on page 117 for more details. table 53 shows the com21:0 bit functionality when the wgm21:0 bits are set to phase correct pwm mode table 50. waveform

with the counter value (tcnt2). a match can be used to generate an output compare interrupt, or to generate a waveform output on the oc2 pin. asynchronous operation of the timer/counter asynchronous status register ? assr bit 3 ? as2: asynchronous timer/counter2 when as2 is written to zero, timer/counter 2 is clocked from the i/o clock, clk i/o . when as2 is written to one, timer/counter2 is clocked from a crystal oscillator connected to the timer oscillator 1 (tosc1) pin. when the value of as2 is changed, the contents of tcnt2, ocr2, and tccr2 might be corrupted. bit 2 ? tcn2ub: timer/counter2 update busy when timer/counter2 operates asynchronously and tcnt2 is written, this bit becomes set. when tcnt2 has been updated from the temporary storage register, this bit is cleared by hardware. a logical zero in this bit indicates that tcnt2 is ready to be updated with a new value. bit 1 ? ocr2ub: output compare register2 update busy when timer/counter2 operates asynchronously and ocr2 is written, this bit becomes set. when ocr2 has been updated from the temporary storage register, this bit is cleared by hardware. a logical zero in this bit indicates that ocr2 is ready to be updated with a new value. bit 0 ? tcr2ub: timer/counter control register2 update busy when timer/counter2 operates asynchronously and tccr2 is written, this bit becomes set. when tccr2 has been updated from the temporary storage register, this bit is cleared by hardware. a logical zero in this bit indicates that tccr2 is ready to be updated with a new value. if a write is performed to any of the three timer/counter2 registers while its update busy flag is set, the updated value might get corrupted and cause an unintentional interrupt to occur. the mechanisms for reading tcnt2, ocr2, and tccr2 are different. when reading tcnt2, the actual timer value is read. when reading ocr2 or tccr2, the value in the temporary storage register is read. bit 76543210 ocr2[7:0] ocr2 read/write r/w r/w

asynchronous operation of timer/counter2 when timer/counter2 operates asynchronously, some considerations must be taken. warning: when switching between asynchronous and synchronous clocking of timer/counter2, the timer registers tcnt2, ocr2, and tccr2 might be corrupted. a safe procedure for switching clock source is: 1. disable the timer/counter2 interrupts by clearing ocie2 and toie2. 2. select clock source by setting as2 as appropriate. 3. write new values to tcnt2, ocr2, and tccr2. 4. to switch to asynchronous operation: wait for tcn2ub, ocr2ub, and tcr2ub. 5. clear the timer/counter2 interrupt flags. 6. enable interrupts, if needed. the oscillator is optimized for use with a 32.768 khz watch crystal. applying an external clock to the tosc1 pin may result in incorrect timer/counter2 operation. the cpu main clock frequency must be more than four times the oscillator frequency. when writing to one of the registers tcnt2, ocr2, or tccr2, the value is transferred to a temporary register, and latched after two positive edges on tosc1. the user should not write a new value before the contents of the temporary register have been transferred to its destination. each of the three mentioned registers have their individual temporary register, which means for example that writing to tcnt2 does not disturb an ocr2 write in progress. to detect that a transfer to the destination register has taken place, the asynchronous status register ? assr has been implemented. when entering power-save or extended standby mode after having written to tcnt2, ocr2, or tccr2, the user must wa it until the written register has been updated if timer/counter2 is used to wake up the device. otherwise, the mcu will enter sleep mode before the changes are effective. this is particularly important if the output compare2 interrupt is used to wake up the device, since the output compare function is disabled during writing to ocr2 or tcnt2. if the write cycle is not finished, and the mcu enters sleep mode before the ocr2ub bit returns to zero, the device will never receive a compare match interrupt, and the mcu will not wake up. if timer/counter2 is used to wake the device up from power-save or extended standby mode, precautions must be taken if the user wants to re-enter one of these modes: the interrupt logic needs one tosc1 cycle to be reset. if the time between wake-up and re-entering sleep mode is less than one tosc1 cycle, the interrupt will not occur, and the device will fail to wake up. if the user is in doubt whether the time before re-entering power-save or extended standby mode is sufficient, the following algorithm can be used to ensure that one tosc1 cycle has elapsed: 1. write a value to tccr2, tcnt2, or ocr2. 2. wait until the corresponding update busy flag in assr returns to zero. 3. enter power-save or extended standby mode. when the asynchronous operation is selected, the 32.768 khz oscillator for timer/counter2 is always running, except in power-down and standby modes. after a power-up reset or wake-up from power-down or standby mode, the user should be aware of the fact that this oscillator might take as long as one second to stabilize. the user is advised to wait for at least one second before using timer/counter2 after power-up or wake-up from power-down or standby mode. the contents of all timer/counter2 registers must be considered lost after a wake-up 126 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 from power-down or standby mode due to unstable clock signal upon start-up, no matter whether the oscillator is in use or a clock signal is applied to the tosc1 pin. description of wake up from power-save or extended standby mode when the timer is clocked asynchronously: when the interrupt condition is met, the wake up process is started on the following cycle of the timer clock, that is, the timer is always advanced by at least one before the processor can read the counter value. after wake-up, the mcu is halted for four cycles, it executes the interrupt routine, and resumes execution from the instruction following sleep. reading of the tcnt2 register shortly after wake-up from power-save may give an incorrect result. since tcnt2 is clocked on the asynchronous tosc clock, reading tcnt2 must be done through a register synchronized to the internal i/o clock domain. synchronization takes place for every rising tosc1 edge. when waking up from power-save mode, and the i/o clock (clk i/o ) again becomes active, tcnt2 will read as the previous value (before entering sleep) until the next rising tosc1 edge. the phase of the tosc clock after waking up from power-save mode is essentially unpredictable, as it depends on the wake-up time. the recommended procedure for reading tcnt2 is thus as follows: 1. write any value to either of the registers ocr2 or tccr2. 2. wait for the corresponding update busy flag to be cleared. 3. read tcnt2. during asynchronous operation, the synchronization of the interrupt flags for the asynchronous timer takes three processor cycles plus one timer cycle. the timer is therefore advanced by at least one before the processor can read the timer value causing the setting of the interrupt flag. the output compare pin is changed on the timer clock and is not synchronized to the processor clock. timer/counter interrupt mask

output compare flag 2 the ocf2 bit is set (one) when a compare match occurs between the timer/counter2 and the data in ocr2 ? output compare register2. ocf2 is cleared by hardware when executing the corresponding interrupt handling vector. alternatively, ocf2 is cleared by writing a logic one to the flag. when the i-bit in sreg, ocie2 (timer/counter2 com- pare match interrupt enable), and ocf2 are set (one), the timer/counter2 compare match interrupt is executed. bit 6 ? tov2: timer/counter2 overflow flag the tov2 bit is set (one) when an overflow occurs in timer/counter2. tov2 is cleared by hardware when executing the corresponding interrupt handling vector. alternatively, tov2 is cleared by writing a logic one to the flag. when the sreg i-bit, toie2 (timer/counter2 overflow interrupt enable), and tov2 are set (one), the timer/counter2 overflow interrupt is executed. in pwm mode, this bit is set when timer/counter2 changes counting direction at $00. timer/counter prescaler figure 64. prescaler for timer/counter2 the clock source for timer/counter2 is named clk t2s . clk t2s is by default connected to the main system i/o clock clk i o . by setting the as2 bit in assr, timer/counter2 is asyn- chronously clocked from the tosc1 pin. this enables use of timer/counter2 as a real time counter (rtc). when as2 is set, pins tosc1 and tosc2 are disconnected from port c. a crystal can then be connected between the tosc1 and tosc2 pins to serve as an independent clock source for timer/counter2. the oscillator is optimized for use with a 32.768 khz crystal. applying an external clock source to tosc1 is not recommended. bit 76543210 ocf2 tov2 icf1 ocf1a ocf1b tov1 ocf0 tov0 tifr read/write r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w initial value 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 10-bit t/c

atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 serial peripheral interface ? spi the serial peripheral interface (spi) allows high-speed synchronous data transfer between the atmega16 and peripheral devices or between several avr devices. the atmega16 spi includes the following features: full-duplex, three-wire synchronous data transfer master or slave operation lsb first or msb first data transfer seven programmable bit rates end of transmission interrupt flag write collision flag protection wake-up from idle mode double speed (ck/2) master spi mode figure 65. spi block diagram (1) note: 1. refer to figure 1 on page 2, and table 25 on page 55 for spi pin placement. the interconnection between master and slave cpus with spi is shown in figure 66. the system consists of two shift registers, and a master clock generator. the spi mas- ter initiates the communication cycle when pulling low the slave select ss pin of the desired slave. master and slave prepare the data to be sent in their respective shift registers, and the master generates the required clock pulses on the sck line to inter- change data. data is always shifted from master to slave on the master out ? slave in, mosi, line, and from slave to master on the master in ? slave out, miso, line. after each data packet, the master will synchronize the slave by pulling high the slave select, ss , line. spi2x spi2x divider /2/4/8/16/32/64/128 130 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 when configured as a master, the spi interface has no automatic control of the ss line. this must be handled by user software before communication can start. when this is done, writing a byte to the spi data register starts the spi clock generator, and the hardware shifts the eight bits into the slave. after shifting one byte, the spi clock gener- ator stops, setting the end of transmission flag (spif). if the spi interrupt enable bit (spie) in the spcr register is set, an interrupt is requested. the master may continue to shift the next byte by writing it into spdr, or signal the end of packet by pulling high the slave select, ss line. the last incoming byte will be kept in the buffer register for later use. when configured as a slave, the spi interface will remain sleeping with miso tri-stated as long as the ss pin is driven high. in this state, software may update the contents of the spi data register, spdr, but the data will not be shifted out by incoming clock pulses on the sck pin until the ss pin is driven low. as one byte has been completely shifted, the end of transmission flag, spif is set. if the spi interrupt enable bit, spie, in the spcr register is set, an interrupt is requested. the slave may continue to place new data to be sent into spdr before reading the incoming data. the last incoming byte will be kept in the buffer register for later use. figure 66. spi master-slave interconnection the system is single buffered in the transmit direction and double buffered in the receive direction. this means that bytes to be transmitted cannot be written to the spi data register before the entire shift cycle is completed. when receiving data, however, a received character must be read from the spi data register before the next character has been completely shifted in. otherwise, the first byte is lost. in spi slave mode, the control logic will sample the incoming signal of the sck pin. to ensure correct sampling of the clock signal, the frequency of the spi clock should never exceed f osc /4. when the spi is enabled, the data direction of the mosi, miso, sck, and ss pins is overridden according to table 55. for more details on automatic port overrides, refer to ?alternate port functions? on page 52. table 55. spi pin overrides pin direction, master spi direction, slave spi mosi

the following code examples show how to initialize the spi as a master and how to per- form a simple transmission. ddr_spi in t he examples must be replaced by the actual data direction register controlling the spi pins. dd_mosi, dd_miso and dd_sck must be replaced by the actual data direction bits for these pins. for example if mosi is placed on pin pb5, replace dd_mosi with ddb5 and ddr_spi with ddrb. note: 1. the example code assumes that the part specific header file is included. assembly code example (1) spi_masterinit: ; set mosi and sck output, all others input ldi r17,(1< 134 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 bit 3 ? cpol: clock polarity when this bit is written to one, sck is high when idle. when cpol is written to zero, sck is low when idle. refer to figure 67 and figure 68 for an example. the cpol func- tionality is summarized below: bit 2 ? cpha: clock phase the settings of the clock phase bit (cpha) determine if data is sampled on the leading (first) or trailing (last) edge of sck. refer to figure 67 and figure 68 for an example. the cpha functionality is summarized below: bits 1, 0 ? spr1, spr0: spi clock rate select 1 and 0 these two bits control the sck rate of the device configured as a master. spr1 and spr0 have no effect on the slave. the relationship between sck and the oscillator clock frequency f osc is shown in the following table: spi status register ? spsr bit 7 ? spif: spi interrupt flag when a serial transfer is complete, the spif flag is set. an interrupt is generated if spie in spcr is set and global interrupts are enabled. if ss is an input and is driven low when the spi is in master mode, this will also set the spif flag. spif is cleared by table 56. cpol functionality cpol leading edge trailing edge 0 rising falling 1 falling

then accessing the spi data register (spdr). bit 6 ? wcol: write collision flag the wcol bit is set if the spi data register (spdr) is written during a data transfer. the wcol bit (and the spif bit) are cleared by first reading the spi status register with wcol set, and then accessing the spi data register. bit 5..1 ? res: reserved bits these bits are reserved bits in the atmega16 and will always read as zero. bit 0 ? spi2x: double spi speed bit when this bit is written logic one the spi speed (sck frequency) will be doubled when the spi is in master mode (see table 58). this means that the minimum sck period will be two cpu clock periods. when the spi is configured as slave, the spi is only guaran- teed to work at f osc /4 or lower. the spi interface on the atmega16 is also used for program memory and eeprom downloading or uploading. see page 268 for spi serial programming and verification. spi data register ? spdr the spi data register is a read/write register used for data transfer between the regis- ter file and the spi shift register. writing to the register initiates data transmission. reading the register causes the shift register receive buffer to be read. data modes there are four combinations of sck phase and polarity with respect to serial data, which are determined by control bits cpha and cpol. the spi data transfer formats are shown in figure 67 and figure 68. data bits are shifted out and latched in on oppo- site edges of the sck signal, ensuring sufficient time for data signals to stabilize. this is clearly seen by summarizing table 56 and

generator, trans mitter and receiver. control registers are shared by all units. the clock generation logic consists of synchronization logic for exter- nal clock input used by synchronous slave operation, and the baud rate generator. the xck (transfer clock) pin is only used by synchronous transfer mode. the transmitter consists of a single write buffer, a serial shift register, parity generator and control logic for handling different serial frame formats. the write buffer allows a continuous transfer of data without any delay between frames. the receiver is the most complex part of the usart module due to its clock and data recovery units. the recovery units are used for asynchronous data reception. in addition to the recovery units, the receiver includes a parity checker, control logic, a shift register and a two level receive buffer (udr). the receiver supports the same frame formats as the transmitter, and can detect frame error, data overrun and parity errors. avr usart vs. avr uart ? compatibility the usart is fully compatible with the avr uart regarding: bit locations inside all usart registers baud rate generation transmitter operation transmit buffer functionality receiver operation however, the receive buffering has two improvements that will affect the compatibility in some special cases: a second buffer register has been added. the two buffer registers operate as a circular fifo buffer. therefore the udr must only be read once for each incoming data! more important is the fact that the error flags (fe and dor) and the 9th data bit (rxb8) are buffered with the data in the receive buffer. therefore the status bits must always be read before the udr register is read. otherwise the error status will be lost since the buffer state is lost. the receiver shift register can now act as a third buffer level. this is done by allowing the received data to remain in the serial shift register (see figure 69) if the buffer registers are full, until a new start bit is detected. the usart is therefore more resistant to data overrun (dor) error conditions. the following control bits have changed name, but have same functionality and register location: chr9 is changed to ucsz2 or is changed to dor clock generation the clock generation logic generates the base clock for the transmitter and receiver. the usart supports four modes of clock operation: normal asynchronous, double speed asynchronous, master synchronous and slave synchronous mode. the umsel bit in usart control and status register c (ucsrc) selects between asynchronous and synchronous operation. double speed (asynchronous mode only) is controlled by the u2x found in the ucsra register. when using synchronous mode (umsel = 1), the data direction register for the xck pin (ddr_xck) controls whether the clock source is internal (master mode) or exter nal (slave mode). the xck pin is only active when using synchronous mode. figure 70 shows a block diagram of the clock generation logic. 139 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 70. clock generation logic, block diagram signal description: txclk transmitter clock (internal signal). rxclk receiver base clock (internal

section refers to figure 70. the usart baud rate register (ubrr) and the down-counter connected to it function as a programmable prescaler or baud rate generator. the down-counter, running at sys- tem clock (fosc), is loaded with the ubrr value each time the counter has counted down to zero or when the ubrrl register is written. a clock is generated each time the counter reaches zero. this clock is the baud rate generator clock output (= fosc/(ubrr+1)). the transmitter divides the baud rate generator clock output by 2, 8 or 16 depending on mode. the baud rate generator output is used directly by the receiver?s clock and data recovery units. however, the recovery units use a state machine that uses 2, 8 or 16 states depending on mode set by the state of the umsel, u2x and ddr_xck bits. table 60 contains equations for calculating the baud rate (in bits per second) and for calculating the ubrr value for each mode of operation using an internally generated clock source. prescaling

(0 - 4095) some examples of ubrr values for some system clock frequencies are found in table 68 (see page 162). double speed operation (u2x) the transfer rate can be doubled by setting the u2x bit in ucsra. setting this bit only has effect for the asynchronous operation. set this bit to zero when using synchronous operation. setting this bit will reduce the divisor of the baud rate divider from 16 to 8, effectively doubling the transfer rate for asynchronous communication. note however that the receiver will in this case only use half the number of samples (reduced from 16 to 8) for data sampling and clock recovery, and therefore a more accurate baud rate setting and system clock are required when this mode is used. for the transmitter, there are no downsides. external clock external clocking is used by the synchronous slave modes of operation. the description in this section refers to figure 70 for details. external clock input from the xck pin is sampled by a synchronization register to mini- mize the chance of meta-stability. the output from the synchronization register must then pass through an edge detector before it can be used by the transmitter and receiver. this process introduces a two cpu clock period delay and therefore the maxi- mum external xck clock frequency is limited by the following equation: note that f osc depends on the stability of the system clock source. it is therefore recom- mended to add some margin to avoid possible loss of data due to frequency variations. synchronous clock operation when synchronous mode is used (umsel = 1), the xck pin will be used as either clock input (slave) or clock output (master). the dependency between the clock edges and data sampling or data change is the same. the basic principle is that data input (on rxd) is sampled at the opposite xck clock edge of the edge the data output (txd) is changed. table 60. equations for calculating baud rate register setting operating mode equation for calculating

xck timing. the ucpol bit ucrsc selects which xck clock edge is used for data sampling and which is used for data change. as figure 71 shows, when ucpol is zero the data will be changed at rising xck edge and sampled at falling xck edge. if ucpol is set, the data will be changed at falling xck edge and sampled at rising xck edge. frame formats a serial frame is defined to be one character of data bits with synchronization bits (start and stop bits), and optionally a parity bit for error checking. the usart accepts all 30 combinations of the following as valid frame formats: 1 start bit 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 data bits no, even or odd parity bit 1 or 2 stop bits a frame starts with the start bit followed by the least significant data bit. then the next data bits, up to a total of nine, are succeeding, ending with the most significant bit. if enabled, the parity bit is inserted after the data bits, before the stop bits. when a com- plete frame is transmitted, it can be directly followed by a new frame, or the communication line can be set to an idle (high) state. figure 72 illustrates the possible combinations of the frame formats. bits inside brackets are optional. figure 72. frame formats st start bit, always low. (n) data bits (0 to 8). p parity bit. can be odd or even. sp stop bit, always high. idle no transfers on the communication line (rxd or txd). an idle line must be high. the frame format used by the usart is set by the ucsz2:0, upm1:0, and usbs bits in ucsrb and ucsrc. the receiver and transmitter use the same setting. note that changing the setting of any of these bits will corrupt all ongoing communication for both the receiver and transmitter. rxd / txd xck rxd / txd xck ucpol = 0 ucpol = 1 sample sample 1 0 2 3 4 [5] [6] [7] [8] [p] st sp1 [sp2] (st / idle) (idle) frame 142 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 the usart character size (ucsz2:0) bits select the number of data bits in the frame. the usart parity mode (upm1:0) bits enable and set the type of parity bit. the selec- tion between one or two stop bits is done by the usart stop bit select (usbs) bit. the receiver ignores the second stop bit. an fe (frame error) will therefore only be detected in the cases where the first stop bit is zero. parity bit calculation the parity bit is calculated by doing an excl usive-or of all the data bits. if odd parity is used, the result of the exclusive or is inverted. the relation between the parity bit and data bits is as follows:: p even parity bit using even parity p odd parity bit using odd parity d n data bit n of the character if used, the parity bit is located between the last data bit and first stop bit of a serial frame. p even d n 1 ? d 3 d 2 d 1 d 0 0 p odd d n 1 ? d 3 d 2 d 1 d 0 1 = = 143 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 usart initialization the usart has to be initialized before any communication can take place. the initial- ization process normally consists of setting the baud rate, setting frame format and enabling the transmitter or the receiver depending on the usage. for interrupt driven usart operation, the global interrupt flag should be cleared (and interrupts globally dis- abled) when doing the initialization. before doing a re-initialization with changed baud rate or frame format, be sure that there are no ongoing transmissions during the period the registers are changed. the txc flag can be used to check that the transmitter has completed all transfers, and the rxc flag can be used to check that there are no unread data in the receive buffer. note that the txc flag must be cleared before each transmission (before udr is written) if it is used for this purpose. the following simple usart initialization code examples show one assembly and one c function that are equal in functionality. the examples assume asynchronous opera- tion using polling (no interrupts enabled) and a fixed frame format. the baud rate is given as a function parameter. for the assembly code, the baud rate parameter is assumed to be stored in the r17:r16 registers. when the function writes to the ucsrc register, the ursel bit (msb) must be set due to the sharing of i/o location by ubrrh and ucsrc. note: 1. the example code assumes that the part specific header file is included. more advanced initialization routines can be made that include frame format as parame- ters, disable interrupts and so on. however, many applications use a fixed setting of the baud and control registers, and for these types of applications the initialization code can be placed directly in the main routine, or be combined with initialization code for other i/o modules. assembly code example (1) usart_init: ; set baud rate out ubrrh, r17 out ubrrl, r16 ; enable receiver and transmitter ldi r16, (1< 147 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 data recept ion ? the usart receiver the usart receiver is enabled by writing the receive enable (rxen) bit in the ucsrb register to one. when the receiver is enabled, the normal pin operation of the rxd pin is overridden by the usart and given the function as the receiver?s serial input. the baud rate, mode of operation and frame format must be set up once before any serial reception can be done. if synchronous operation is used, the clock on the xck pin will be used as transfer clock. receiving frames with 5 to 8 data bits the receiver starts data reception when it detects a valid start bit. each bit that follows the start bit will be sampled at the baud rate or xck clock, and shifted into the receive shift register until the first stop bit of a frame is received. a second stop bit will be ignored by the receiver. when the first stop bit is received, i.e., a complete serial frame is present in the receive shift register, the contents of the shift register will be moved into the receive buffer. the receive buffer can then be read by reading the udr i/o location. the following code example shows a simple usart receive function based on polling of the receive complete (rxc) flag. when using frames with less than eight bits the most significant bits of the data read from the udr will be masked to zero. the usart has to be initialized before the function can be used. note: 1. the example code assumes that the part specific header file is included. the function simply waits for data to be present in the receive buffer by checking the rxc flag, before reading the buffer and returning the value. assembly code example (1) usart_receive: ; wait for data to be received sbis ucsra, rxc rjmp usart_receive ; get and return received data from buffer in r16, udr ret c code example (1) unsigned char usart_receive( void ) { /* wait for data to be received */ while ( !(ucsra & (1< 149 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 the receive function example reads all the i/o registers into the register file before any computation is done. this gives an optimal receive buffer utilization since the buffer location read will be free to accept new data as early as possible. receive compete flag and interrupt the usart receiver has one flag that indicates the receiver state. the receive complete (rxc) flag indicates if there are unread data present in the receive buffer. this flag is one when unread data exist in the receive buffer, and zero when the receive buffer is empty (i.e., does not contain any unread data). if the receiver is disabled (rxen = 0), the receive buffer will be flushed and consequently the rxc bit will become zero. when the receive complete interrupt enable (rxcie) in ucsrb is set, the usart receive complete interrupt will be executed as long as the rxc flag is set (provided that global interrupts are enabled). when interrupt-driven data reception is used, the receive complete routine must read the received data from udr in order to clear the rxc flag, otherwise a new interrupt will occur once the interrupt routine terminates. receiver error flags the usart receiver has three error flags: frame error (fe), data overrun (dor) and parity error (pe). all can be accessed by reading ucsra. common for the error flags is that they are located in the receive buffer together with the frame for which they indicate the error status. due to the buffering of the error flags, the ucsra must be read before the receive buffer (udr), since reading the udr i/o location changes the buffer read location. another equality for the error flags is that they can not be altered by software doing a write to the flag location. however, all flags must be set to zero when the ucsra is written for upward compatibility of future usart implementations. none of the error flags can generate interrupts. the frame error (fe) flag indicates the state of the first stop bit of the next readable frame stored in the receive buffer. the fe flag is zero when the stop bit was correctly read (as one), and the fe flag will be one when the stop bit was incorrect (zero). this flag can be used for detecting out-of-sync conditions, detecting break conditions and protocol handling. the fe flag is not affected by the setting of the usbs bit in ucsrc since the receiver ignores all, except for the first, stop bits. for compatibility with future devices, always set this bit to zero when writing to ucsra. the data overrun (dor) flag indicates data loss due to a receiver buffer full condition. a data overrun occurs when the receive buffer is full (two characters), it is a new char- acter waiting in the receive shift register, and a new start bit is detected. if the dor flag is set there was one or more serial frame lost between the frame last read from udr, and the next frame read from udr. for compat ibility with future devices, always write this bit to zero when writing to ucsra. the dor flag is cleared when the frame received was successfully moved from the shift register to the receive buffer. the parity error (pe) flag indicates that the next frame in the receive buffer had a parity error when received. if parity check is not enabled the pe bit will always be read zero. for compatibility with future devices, always set this bit to zero when writing to ucsra. for more details see ?parity bit calculation? on page 142 and ?parity checker? on page 149. parity checker the parity checker is active when the high usart parity mode (upm1) bit is set. type of parity check to be performed (odd or even) is selected by the upm0 bit. when enabled, the parity checker calculates the parity of the data bits in incoming frames and compares the result with the parity bit from the serial frame. the result of the check is stored in the receive buffer together with the received data and stop bits. the parity error (pe) flag can then be read by software to check if the frame had a parity error. 150 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 the pe bit is set if the next character that can be read from the receive buffer had a par- ity error when received and the parity checking was enabled at that point (upm1 = 1). this bit is valid until the receive buffer (udr) is read. disabling the receiver in contrast to the transmitter, disabling of the receiver will be immediate. data from ongoing receptions will therefore be lost. when disabled (i.e., the rxen is set to zero) the receiver will no longer override the normal function of the rxd port pin. the receiver buffer fifo will be flushed when the receiver is disabled. remaining data in the buffer will be lost flushing the receive buffer the receiver buffer fifo will be flushed when t he receiver is disabled, i.e., the buffer will be emptied of its contents. unread data will be lost. if the buffer has to be flushed during normal operation, due to for instance an error condition, read the udr i/o loca- tion until the rxc flag is cleared. the foll owing code example shows how to flush the receive buffer. note: 1. the example code assumes that the part specific header file is included. asynchronous data reception the usart includes a clock recovery and a data recovery unit for handling asynchro- nous data reception. the clock recovery logic is used for synchronizing the internally generated baud rate clock to the incoming asynchronous serial frames at the rxd pin. the data recovery logic samples and low pass filters each incoming bit, thereby improv- ing the noise immunity of the receiver. the asynchronous reception operational range depends on the accuracy of the internal baud rate clock, the rate of the incoming frames, and the frame size in number of bits. asynchronous clock recovery the clock recovery logic synchronizes internal clock to the incoming serial frames. fig- ure 73 illustrates the sampling process of the start bit of an incoming frame. the sample rate is 16 times the baud rate for normal mode, and 8 times the baud rate for double speed mode. the horizontal arrows illustrate the synchronization variation due to the sampling process. note the larger time variation when using the double speed mode (u2x = 1) of operation. samples denoted zero are samples done when the rxd line is idle (i.e., no communication activity). assembly code example (1) usart_flush: sbis ucsra, rxc ret in r16, udr rjmp usart_flush c code example (1) void usart_flush( void ) {

bits in the frame. if the stop bit is registered to have a logic 0 value, the frame error (fe) flag will be set. a new high to low transition indicating the start bit of a new frame can come right after the last of the bits used for majority voting. for normal speed mode, the first low level sample can be at point marked (a) in figure 75. for double speed mode the first low level must be delayed to (b). (c) marks a stop bit of full length. the early start bit detec- tion influences the operational range of the receiver. asynchronous operational range the operational range of the receiver is dependent on the mismatch between the received bit rate and the internally generated baud rate. if the transmitter is sending frames at too fast or too slow bit rates, or the internally generated baud rate of the receiver does not have a similar (see table 61) base frequency, the receiver will not be able to synchronize the frames to the start bit. the following equations can be used to calculate the ratio of the incoming data rate and internal receiver baud rate. d sum of character size and parity size (d = 5 to 10 bit) s samples per bit. s = 16 for normal speed mode and s = 8 for double speed mode. s f first sample number used for majority voting. s f = 8 for normal speed and s f = 4 for double speed mode. s m middle sample number used for majority voting. s m = 9 for normal speed and s m = 5 for double speed mode. r slow is the ratio of the slowest incoming data rate that can be accepted in relation to the receiver baud rate. r fast is the ratio of the fastest incoming data rate that can be accepted in relation to the receiver baud rate. 1234567 8 9 10 0/1 0/1 0/1 stop 1 123 4 5 6 0/1 rxd sample (u2x = 0) sample (u2x = 1) (a) (b) (c) r slow d 1 + () s s 1 ? ds ? s f ++

baud rate error that can be tolerated. note that normal speed mode has higher toleration of baud rate variations. the recommendations of the maximum receiver baud rate error was made under the assumption that the receiver and transmitter equally divides the maximum total error. there are two possible sources for the receivers baud rate error. the receiver?s system clock (xtal) will always have some minor instability over the supply voltage range and the temperature range. when using a crystal to generate the system clock, this is rarely a problem, but for a resonator the system clock may differ more than 2% depending of the resonators tolerance. the second source for the error is more controllable. the baud rate generator can not always do an exact division of the system frequency to get the baud rate wanted. in this case an ubrr value that gives an acceptable low error can be used if possible. table 61. recommended maximum receiver baud rate error for normal speed mode (u2x =

enables a fil- tering function of incoming frames received by the usart receiver. frames that do not contain address information will be ignored an d not put into the receive buffer. this effectively reduces the number of incoming frames that has to be handled by the cpu, in a system with multiple mcus that communicate via the same serial bus. the trans- mitter is unaffected by the mpcm setting, but has to be used differently when it is a part of a system utilizing the multi-processor communication mode. if the receiver is set up to receive frames that contain 5 to 8 data bits, then the first stop bit indicates if the frame contains data or address information. if the receiver is set up for frames with nine data bits, then the ninth bit (rxb8) is used for identifying address and data frames. when the frame type bit (the first stop or the ninth bit) is one, the frame contains an address. when the frame type bit is zero the frame is a data frame. the multi-processor communication mode enables several slave mcus to receive data from a master mcu. this is done by first decoding an address frame to find out which mcu has been addressed. if a particular slave mcu has been addressed, it will receive the following data frames as normal, while the other slave mcus will ignore the received frames until another address frame is received. using mpcm for an mcu to act as a master mcu, it can use a 9-bit character frame format (ucsz = 7). the ninth bit (txb8) must be set when an address frame (txb8 = 1) or cleared when a data frame (txb = 0) is being transmitted. the slave mcus must in this case be set to use a 9-bit character frame format. the following procedure should be used to exchange data in multi-processor communi- cation mode: 1. all slave mcus are in multi-processor communication mode (mpcm in ucsra is set). 2. the master mcu sends an address frame, and all slaves receive and read this frame. in the slave mcus, the rxc flag in ucsra will be set as normal. 3. each slave mcu reads the udr register and determines if it has been selected. if so, it clears the mpcm bit in ucsra, otherwise it waits for the next address byte and keeps the mpcm setting. 4. the addressed mcu will receive all data frames until a new address frame is received. the other slave mcus, which still have the mpcm bit set, will ignore the data frames. 5. when the last data frame is received by the addressed mcu, the addressed mcu sets the mpcm bit and waits for a new address frame from master. the process then repeats from 2. using any of the 5- to 8-bit character frame formats is possible, but impractical since the receiver must change between using n and n+1 character frame formats. this makes full-duplex operation difficult since the transmitter and receiver uses the same character size setting. if 5- to 8-bit character frames are used, the transmitter must be set to use two stop bit (usbs = 1) since the first stop bit is used for indicating the frame type. do not use read-modify-write instructions (sbi and cbi) to set or clear the mpcm bit. the mpcm bit shares the same i/o location as the txc flag and this might accidentally be cleared when using sbi or cbi instructions. 155 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 accessing ubrrh/ ucsrc registers the ubrrh register shares the same i/o location as the ucsrc register. therefore some special consideration must be taken when accessing this i/o location. write access when doing a write access of this i/o location, the high bit of the value written, the usart register select (ursel) bit, controls which one of the two registers that will be written. if ursel is zero during a write operation, the ubrrh value will be updated. if ursel is one, the ucsrc setting will be updated. the following code examples show how to access the two registers. note: 1. the example code assumes that the part specific header file is included. as the code examples illustrate, write accesses of the two registers are relatively unaf- fected of the sharing of i/o location. assembly code example (1) ... ; set ubrrh to 2 ldi r16,0x02 out ubrrh,r16 ... ; set the usbs and the ucsz1 bit to one, and ; t he remaining bits to zero. ldi r16,(1< 157 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 the transmit buffer can only be written when the udre flag in the ucsra register is set. data written to udr when the udre flag is not set, will be ignored by the usart transmitter. when data is written to the transmit buffer, and the transmitter is enabled, the transmitter will load the data into the transmit shift register when the shift register is empty. then the data will be serially transmitted on the txd pin. the receive buffer consists of a two level fifo. the fifo will change its state whenever the receive buffer is accessed. due to this behavior of the receive buffer, do not use read modify write instructions (sbi and cbi) on this location. be careful when using bit test instructions (sbic and sbis), since these also will change the state of the fifo. usart control and status register a ? ucsra bit 7 ? rxc: usart receive complete this flag bit is set when there are unread data in the receive buffer and cleared when the receive buffer is empty (i.e., does not contain any unread data). if the receiver is dis- abled, the receive buffer will be flushed and consequently the rxc bit will become zero. the rxc flag can be used to generate a receive complete interrupt (see description of the rxcie bit). bit 6 ? txc: usart transmit complete this flag bit is set when the entire frame in the transmit shift register has been shifted out and there are no new data currently pres ent in the transmit buffer (udr). the txc flag bit is automatically cleared when a transmit complete interrupt is executed, or it can be cleared by writing a one to its bit location. the txc flag can generate a transmit complete interrupt (see description of the txcie bit). bit 5 ? udre: usart data register empty the udre flag indicates if the transmit buffer (udr) is ready to receive new data. if udre is one, the buffer is empty, and therefore ready to be written. the udre flag can generate a data register empty interrupt (see description of the udrie bit). udre is set after a reset to indicate that the transmitter is ready. bit 4 ? fe: frame error this bit is set if the next character in the receive buffer had a frame error when received. i.e., when the first stop bit of the next character in the receive buffer is zero. this bit is valid until the receive buffer (udr) is read. the fe bit is zero when the stop bit of received data is one. always set this bit to zero when writing to ucsra. bit 3 ? dor: data overrun this bit is set if a data overrun condition is detected. a data overrun occurs when the receive buffer is full (two characters), it is a new character waiting in the receive shift register, and a new start bit is detected. this bit is valid until the receive buffer (udr) is read. always set this bit to zero when writing to ucsra. bit 76543210 rxc txc udre fe dor pe u2x mpcm ucsra read/write r r/w r r r r r/w r/w initial value 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 158 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 bit 2 ? pe: parity error this bit is set if the next character in the receive buffer had a parity error when received and the parity checking was enabled at that point (upm1 = 1). this bit is valid until the receive buffer (udr) is read. always set this bit to zero when writing to ucsra. bit 1 ? u2x: double the usart transmission speed this bit only has effect for the asynchronous operation. write this bit to zero when using synchronous operation. writing this bit to one will reduce the divisor of the baud rate divider from 16 to 8 effec- tively doubling the transfer rate for asynchronous communication. bit 0 ? mpcm: multi-processor communication mode this bit enables the multi-processor communication mode. when the mpcm bit is writ- ten to one, all the incoming frames received by the usart receiver that do not contain address information will be ignored. the transmitter is unaffected by the mpcm setting. for more detailed information see ?multi-processor communication mode? on page 154. usart

if the rxcie bit is written to one, the global interrupt flag in sreg is written to one and the rxc bit in ucsra is set. bit 6 ? txcie: tx complete interrupt enable writing this bit to one enables interrupt on the txc flag. a usart transmit complete interrupt will be generated only if the txcie bit is written to one, the global interrupt flag in sreg is written to one and the txc bit in ucsra is set. bit 5 ? udrie: usart data register empty interrupt enable writing this bit to one enables interrupt on the udre flag. a data register empty inter- rupt will be generated only if the udrie bit is written to one, the global interrupt flag in sreg is written to one and the udre bit in ucsra is set. bit 4 ? rxen: receiver enable writing this bit to one enables the usart receiver. the receiver will override normal port operation for the rxd pin when enabled. disabling the receiver will flush the receive buffer invalidating the fe, dor, and pe flags. bit 3 ? txen: transmitter enable writing this bit to one enables the usart transmitter. the transmitter will override nor- mal port operation for the txd pin when enabled. the disabling of the transmitter (writing txen to zero) will not become effective until ongoing and pending transmis- sions are completed, i.e., when the transmit shift register and transmit buffer register bit 76543210 rxcie txcie udrie rxen txen ucsz2 rxb8 txb8

ucpol bit sets the relationship between data output change and data input sample, and the synchronous clock (xck). usart baud rate registers ? ubrrl and ubrrh the ubrrh register shares the same i/o location as the ucsrc register. see the ?accessing ubrrh/ ucsrc registers? on page 155 section which describes how to access this register. bit 15 ? ursel: register select this bit selects between accessing the ubrrh or the ucsrc register. it is read as zero when reading ubrrh. the ursel must be zero when writing the ubrrh. bit 14:12 ? reserved bits these bits are reserved for future use. for

the ubrrh contains the four most significant bits, and the ubrrl cont ains the 8 least significant bits of the usart baud rate. ongoing transmissions by the transmitter and receiver will be cor- rupted if the baud rate is changed. writing ubrrl will trigger an immediate update of the baud rate prescaler. table 67. ucpol bit settings ucpol transmitted data changed (output of txd pin) received

interface (twi) is idea lly suited for typical microcontroller applica- tions. the twi protocol allows the systems designer to interconnect up to 128 different devices using only two bi-directional bus lines, one for clock (scl) and one for data (sda). the only external hardware needed to implement the bus is a single pull-up resistor for each of the twi bus lines. all devices connected to the bus have individual addresses, and mechanisms for resolving bus contention are inherent in the twi protocol. figure 76. twi bus interconnection twi terminology the following definitions are frequently encountered in this section. device 1 device 2 device 3 device n sda scl ........ r1 r2 v cc table 72. twi terminology term description master the device that initiates and terminates a transmission. the master also generates the scl clock. slave the device addressed by a master. transmitter the device placing data on the bus. receiver the device reading data from the bus. 167 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 electrical interconnection as depicted in figure 76, both bus lines are connected to the positive supply voltage through pull-up resistors. the bus drivers of all twi-compliant devices are open-drain or open-collector. this implements a wired-and function which is essential to the opera- tion of the interface. a low level on a twi bus line is generated when one or more twi devices output a zero. a high level is output when all twi devices tri-state their outputs, allowing the pull-up resistors to pull the line high. note that all avr devices connected to the twi bus must be powered in order to allow any bus operation. the number of devices that can be connected to the bus is only limited by the bus capacitance limit of 400 pf and the 7-bit slave address space. a detailed specification of the electrical characteristics of the twi is given in ?two-wire serial interface character- istics? on page 288. two different sets of specifications are presented there, one relevant for bus speeds below 100 khz, and one valid for bus speeds up to 400 khz. data transfer and frame format transferring bits each data bit transferred on the twi bus is accompanied by a pulse on the clock line. the level of the data line must be stable when the clock line is high. the only exception to this rule is for generating start and stop conditions. figure 77. data validity start and stop conditions the master initiates and terminates a data transmission. the transmission is initiated when the master issues a start condition on the bus, and it is terminated when the master issues a stop condition. between a start and a stop condition, the bus is considered busy, and no other master should tr y to seize control of the bus. a special case occurs when a new start condition is issued between a start and stop con- dition. this is referred to as a repeated start condition, and is used when the master wishes to initiate a new transfer without releasing control of the bus. after a repeated start, the bus is considered busy until the next stop. this is identical to the start behavior, and therefore start is used to describe both start and repeated start for the remainder of th is datasheet, unless otherwise noted. as depicted below, start and stop conditions are signalled by changing the level of the sda line when the scl line is high. sda scl data stable data stable data change 168 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 78. start, repeated start, and stop conditions address packet format all address packets transmitted on the twi bus are nine bits long, consisting of seven address bits, one read/write control bit and an acknowledge bit. if the read/write bit is set, a read operation is to be performed, otherwise a write operation should be per- formed. when a slave recognizes that it is being addressed, it should acknowledge by pulling sda low in the ninth scl (ack) cycle. if the addressed slave is busy, or for some other reason can not service the master?s request, the sda line should be left high in the ack clock cycle. the master c an then transmit a st op condition, or a repeated start condition to initiate a new transmission. an address packet consist- ing of a slave address and a read or a write bit is called sla+r or sla+w, respectively. the msb of the address byte is transmitted first. slave addresses can freely be allo- cated by the designer, but the address 0000 000 is reserved for a general call. when a general call is issued, all slaves should respond by pulling the sda line low in the ack cycle. a general call is used when a master wishes to transmit the same mes- sage to several slaves in the system. when the general call address followed by a write bit is transmitted on the bus, all slaves set up to acknowledge the general call will pull the sda line low in the ack cycle. the following data packets will then be received by all the slaves that acknowledged the general call. note that transmitting the general call address followed by a read bit is meaningless, as this would cause contention if several slaves started transmitting different data. all addresses of the format 1111 xxx should be reserved for future purposes. figure 79. address packet format data packet format all data packets transmitted on the twi bus are nine bits long, consisting of one data byte and an acknowledge bit. during a data transfer, the master generates the clock and the start and stop conditions, while the re ceiver is responsible for acknowledging the reception. an acknowledge (ack) is si gnalled by the receiver pulling the sda line low during the ninth scl cycle. if the receiver leaves the sda line high, a nack is sig- nalled. when the receiver has received the last byte, or for some reason cannot receive sda scl start stop repeated start stop start sda scl start 12 789 addr msb addr lsb r/w ack 169 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 any more bytes, it should inform the transmitter by sending a nack after the final byte. the msb of the data byte is transmitted first. figure 80. data packet format combining address and data packets into a transmission a transmission basically consists of a start condition, a sla+r/w, one or more data packets and a stop condition. an empty message, consisting of a start followed by a stop condition, is illegal. note that the wired-anding of the scl line can be used to implement handshaking between the master and the slave. the slave can extend the scl low period by pulling the scl line low. this is useful if the clock speed set up by the master is too fast for the slave, or the slave needs extra time for processing between the data transmissions. the slave extending the scl low period will not affect the scl high period, which is determined by the master. as a consequence, the slave can reduce the twi data transfer speed by prolonging the scl duty cycle. figure 81 shows a typical data transmission. note that several data bytes can be trans- mitted between the sla+r/w and the stop condition, depending on the software protocol implemented by the application software. figure 81. typical data transmission multi-master bus systems, arbitration and synchronization the twi protocol allows bus systems with several masters. special concerns have been taken in order to ensure that transmissions will proceed as normal, even if two or more masters initiate a transmission at the same time. two problems arise in multi-mas- ter systems: an algorithm must be implemented allowing only one of the masters to complete the transmission. all other masters should cease transmission when they discover that they have lost the selection process. this selection process is called arbitration. when a contending master discovers that it has lost the arbitration process, it should immediately switch to slave mode to check whether it is being addressed by the winning master. the fact that multiple masters have started transmission at the same time should not be detectable to the slaves, i.e., the data being transferred on the bus must not be corrupted. 12 789 data msb data lsb ack aggregate sda sda from transmitter sda from receiverr scl from

different masters may use different scl frequencies. a scheme must be devised to synchronize the serial clocks from all masters, in order to let the transmission proceed in a lockstep fashion. this will facilitate the arbitration process. the wired-anding of the bus lines is used to solve both these problems. the serial clocks from all masters will be wired-anded, yielding a combined clock with a high period equal to the one from the master with the shortest high period. the low period of the combined clock is equal to the low period of the master with the longest low period. note that all masters listen to the scl line, effectively starting to count their scl high and low time-out periods when the combined scl line goes high or low, respectively. figure 82. scl synchronization between multiple masters arbitration is carried out by all masters continuously monitoring the sda line after out- putting data. if the value read from the sda line does not match the value the master had output, it has lost the arbitration. note that a master can only lose arbitration when it outputs a high sda value while another master outputs a low value. the losing master should immediately go to slave mode, checki ng if it is being addressed by the winning master. the sda line should be left high, but losing masters are allowed to generate a clock signal until the end of the current data or address packet. arbitration will continue until only one master remains, and this may take many bits. if several masters are trying to address the same slave, arbitration will continue into the data packet. ta low ta high scl from master a scl from master b scl bus line tb low tb high masters start counting low period masters start counting high period 171 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 83. arbitration between two masters note that arbitration is not allowed between: a repeated start condition and a data bit a stop condition and a data bit a repeated start and a stop condition it is the user software?s responsibility to ens ure that these illegal arbitration conditions never occur. this implies that in multi-master systems, all data transfers must use the same composition of sla+r/w and data packets. in other words: all transmissions must contain the same number of data packets, otherwise the result of the arbitration is undefined. sda from master a sda from master b sda line

all regis- ters drawn in a thick line are accessible through the avr data bus. figure 84. overview of the twi module scl and sda pins these pins interface the avr twi with the rest of the mcu system. the output drivers contain a slew-rate limiter in order to conform to the twi specification. the input stages contain a spike suppression unit removing spikes shorter than 50 ns. note that the inter- nal pullups in the avr pads can be enabled by setting the port bits corresponding to the scl and sda pins, as explained in the i/o port section. the internal pull-ups can in some systems eliminate the need for external ones. bit rate generator unit this unit controls the period of scl when operating in a master mode. the scl period is controlled by settings in the twi bit rate register (twbr) and the prescaler bits in the twi status register (twsr). slave operation does not depend on bit rate or pres- caler settings, but the cpu clock frequency in the slave must be at least 16 times higher than the scl frequency. note that slaves may prolong the scl low period, thereby reducing the average twi bus clock period. the scl frequency is generated according to the following equation: twbr = value of the twi bit rate register twps = value of the prescaler bits in the twi status register note: twbr should be 10 or higher if the twi operates in master mode. if twbr is lower than 10, the master may produce an incorrect output on sda and scl for the reminder of the byte. the problem occurs when operating the twi in master mode, sending start + sla + r/w to a slave (a slave does not need to be connected to the bus for the condition to happen). twi unit address register (twar) address match unit address comparator control unit control register (twcr) status register (twsr) state

atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 bus interface unit this unit contains the data and address shift register (twdr), a start/stop con- troller and arbitration detection hardware. the twdr contains the address or data bytes to be transmitted, or the address or data bytes received. in addition to the 8-bit twdr, the bus interface unit also contains a register containing the (n)ack bit to be transmitted or received. this (n)ack register is not directly accessible by the applica- tion software. however, when receiving, it can be set or cleared by manipulating the twi control register (twcr). when in transmitter mode, the value of the received (n)ack bit can be determined by the value in the twsr. the start/stop controller is responsible for generation and detection of start, repeated start, and stop conditions. the start/stop controller is able to detect start and stop conditions even when the avr mcu is in one of the sleep modes, enabling the mcu to wake up if addressed by a master. if the twi has initiated a transmission as master, the arbitration detection hardware continuously monitors the transmission trying to determine if arbitration is in process. if the twi has lost an arbitration, the control unit is informed. correct action can then be taken and appropriate status codes generated. address match unit the address match unit checks if received address bytes match the 7-bit address in the twi address register (twar). if the twi general call recognition enable (twgce) bit in the twar is written to one, all incoming address bits will also be compared against the general call address. upon an address match, the control unit is informed, allowing correct action to be taken. the twi may or may not acknowledge its address, depending on settings in the twcr. the address match unit is able to compare addresses even when the avr mcu is in sleep mode, enabling the mcu to wake up if addressed by a master. control unit the control unit monitors the twi bus and generates responses corresponding to set- tings in the twi control register (twcr). when an event requiring the attention of the application occurs on the twi bus, the twi interrupt flag (twint) is asserted. in the next clock cycle, the twi status register (twsr) is updated with a status code identify- ing the event. the twsr only contains relevant status information when the twi interrupt flag is asserted. at all other times, the twsr contains a special status code indicating that no relevant status information is available. as long as the twint flag is set, the scl line is held low. this allows the application software to complete its tasks before allowing the twi transmission to continue. the twint flag is set in the following situations: after the twi has transmitted a start/repeated start condition after the twi has transmitted sla+r/w after the twi has transmitted an address byte after the twi has lost arbitration after the twi has been addressed by own slave address or general call after the twi has received a data byte after a stop or repeated start has been received while still addressed as a slave when a bus error has occurred due to an illegal start or stop condition 174 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 twi register description twi bit rate register ? twbr bits 7..0 ? twi bit rate register twbr selects the division factor for the bit rate generator. the bit rate generator is a frequency divider which generates the scl clock frequency in the master modes. see ?bit rate generator unit? on page 172 for calculating bit rates. twi control register ? twcr the twcr is used to control the operation of the twi. it is used to enable the twi, to initiate a master access by applying a start condition to the bus, to generate a receiver acknowledge, to generate a stop condition, and to control halting of the bus while the data to be written to the bus are written to the twdr. it also indicates a write collision if data is attempted written to twdr while the register is inaccessible. bit 7 ? twint: twi interrupt flag this bit is set by hardware when the twi has finished its current job and expects appli- cation software response. if the i-bit in sreg and twie in twcr are set, the mcu will jump to the twi interrupt vector. while the twint flag is set, the scl low period is stretched. the twint flag must be cleared by software by writing a logic one to it. note that this flag is not automatically cleared by hardware when executing the interrupt rou- tine. also note that clearing this flag starts the operation of the twi, so all accesses to the twi address register (twar), twi status register (twsr), and twi data regis- ter (twdr) must be complete before clearing this flag. bit 6 ? twea: twi enable acknowledge bit the twea bit controls the generation of the acknowledge pulse. if the twea bit is writ- ten to one, the ack pulse is generated on the twi bus if the following conditions are met: 1. the device?s own slave address has been received. 2. a general call has been received, while the twgce bit in the twar is set. 3. a data byte has been received in master receiver or slave receiver mode. by writing the twea bit to zero, the device can be virtually disconnected from the two- wire serial bus temporarily. address recognition can then be resumed by writing the twea bit to one again. bit 5 ? twsta: twi start condition bit the application writes the twsta bit to one when it desires to become a master on the two-wire serial bus. the twi hardware checks if the bus is available, and generates a start condition on the bus if it is free. however, if the bus is not free, the twi waits bit 76543210 twbr7 twbr6 twbr5 twbr4 twbr3 twbr2 twbr1 twbr0 twbr read/write r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w initial

condition is detected, and then generates a new start condition to claim the bus master status. twsta is cleared by the twi hardware when the start condi- tion has been transmitted. bit 4 ? twsto: twi stop condition bit writing the twsto bit to one in master mode will generate a stop condition on the two-wire serial bus. when the stop condition is executed on the bus, the twsto bit is cleared automatically. in slave mode, setting the twsto bit can be used to recover from an error condition. this will not generate a stop condition, but the twi returns to a well-defined unaddressed slave mode and releases the scl and sda lines to a high impedance state. bit 3 ? twwc: twi write collision flag the twwc bit is set when attempting to write to the twi data register ? twdr when twint is low. this flag is cleared by writing the twdr register when twint is high. bit 2 ? twen: twi enable bit the twen bit enables twi operation and activates the twi interface. when twen is written to one, the twi takes control over the i/o pins connected to the scl and sda pins, enabling the slew-rate limiters and spike filters. if this bit is written to zero, the twi is switched off and all twi transmissions are terminated, regardless of any ongoing operation. bit 1 ? res: reserved bit this bit is a reserved bit and will always read as zero. bit 0 ? twie: twi interrupt enable when this bit is written to one, and the i-bit in sreg is set, the twi interrupt request will be activated for as long as the twint flag is high. twi status register ? twsr bits 7..3 ? tws: twi status these five bits reflect the status of the twi logic and the two-wire serial bus. the dif- ferent status codes are described later in this section. note that the value read from twsr contains both the 5-bit status value and the 2-bit prescaler value. the application designer should mask the prescaler bits to zero when checking the status bits. this makes status checking independent of prescale r setting. this approach is used in this datasheet, unless otherwise noted. bit 2 ? res: reserved bit this bit is reserved and will always read as zero. bit 76543210 tws7 tws6 tws5 tws4 tws3 ? twps1 twps0 twsr

prescaler. see ?bit rate generator unit? on page 172 for calculating bit rates. twi data register ? twdr in transmit mode, twdr contains the next byte to be transmitted. in receive mode, the twdr contains the last byte received. it is writable while the twi is not in the process of shifting a byte. this occurs when the twi interrupt flag (twint) is set by hardware. note that the data register cannot be initia lized by the user before the first interrupt occurs. the data in twdr remains stable as long as twint is set. while data is shifted out, data on the bus is simultaneously shifted in. twdr always contains the last byte present on the bus, except after a wake up from a sleep mode by the twi interrupt. in this case, the contents of twdr is undefined. in the case of a lost bus arbitration, no data is lost in the transition from master to slave. handling of the ack bit is controlled automatically by the twi logic, the cpu cannot access the ack bit directly. bits 7..0 ? twd: twi data register these eight bits contin the next data byte to be transmitted, or the latest data byte received on the two-wire serial bus. twi (slave) address register ? twar the twar should be loaded with the 7-bit slave address (in the seven most significant bits of twar) to which the twi will respond when programmed as a slave transmitter or receiver. in multimaster systems, twar must be set in masters which can be addressed as slaves by other masters. the lsb of twar is used to enable recognition of the general call address ($00). there is an associated address comparator that looks for the slave address (or general call address if enabled) in the received serial address. if a match is found, an interrupt request is generated. bits 7..1 ? twa: twi (slave) address register these seven bits constitute the slave address of the twi unit. bit 0 ? twgce: twi general call recognition enable bit if set, this bit enables the recognition of a general call given over the two-wire serial bus. bit 76543210 twd7 twd6 twd5 twd4 twd3 twd2 twd1 twd0 twdr read/write r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w initial value 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 bit 76543210 twa6 twa5 twa4 twa3 twa2 twa1 twa0 twgce

after all bus events, like reception of a byte or transmission of a start condition. because the twi is interrupt-based, the application software is free to carry on other operations during a twi byte transfer. note that the twi interrupt enable (twie) bit in twcr together with the global interrupt enable bit in sreg allow the application to decide whether or not assertion of the twint flag should generate an interrupt request. if the twie bit is cleared, the application must poll the twint flag in order to detect actions on the twi bus. when the twint flag is asserted, the twi has finished an operation and awaits applica- tion response. in this case, the twi status register (twsr) contains a value indicating the current state of the twi bus. the application software can then decide how the twi should behave in the next twi bus cycle by manipulating the twcr and twdr registers. figure 85 is a simple example of how the application can interface to the twi hardware. in this example, a master wishes to transmit a single data byte to a slave. this descrip- tion is quite abstract, a more detailed explanation follows later in this section. a simple code example implementing the desired behaviour is also presented. figure 85. interfacing the application to the twi in a typical transmission 1. the first step in a twi transmission is to transmit a start condition. this is done by writing a specific value into twcr, instructing the twi hardware to transmit a start condition. which value to write is described later on. however, it is important that the twint bit is set in the value written. writing a one to twint clears the flag. the twi will not start any operation as long as the twint bit in twcr is set. immediately after the application has cleared twint, the twi will initiate transmission of the start condition. 2. when the start condition has been transmitted, the twint flag in twcr is set, and twsr is updated with a status code indicating that the start condition has successfully been sent. 3. the application software should now examine the value of twsr, to make sure that the start condition was successfully transmitted. if twsr indicates other- wise, the application software might take some special action, like calling an error routine. assuming that the status code is as expected, the application must load sla+w into twdr. remember that twdr is used both for address and data. after twdr has been loaded with the desired sla+w, a specific value start sla+w a data a stop 1. application writes to twcr to initiate transmission of start 2.

written to twcr, instructing the twi hardware to transmit the sla+w present in twdr. which value to write is described later on. however, it is important that the twint bit is set in the value written. writing a one to twint clears the flag. the twi will not start any operation as long as the twint bit in twcr is set. immediately after the application has cleared twint, the twi will initiate transmission of the address packet. 4. when the address packet has been transmitted, the twint flag in twcr is set, and twsr is updated with a status code indicating that the address packet has successfully been sent. the status code will also reflect whether a slave acknowledged the packet or not. 5. the application software should now examine the value of twsr, to make sure that the address packet was successfully transmitted, and that the value of the ack bit was as expected. if twsr indicates otherwise, the application software might take some special action, like calling an error routine. assuming that the status code is as expected, the application must load a data packet into twdr. subsequently, a specific value must be written to twcr, instructing the twi hardware to transmit the data packet present in twdr. which value to write is described later on. however, it is important that the twint bit is set in the value written. writing a one to twint clears the flag. the twi will not start any opera- tion as long as the twint bit in twcr is set. immediately after the application has cleared twint, the twi will initiate transmission of the data packet. 6. when the data packet has been transmitted, the twint flag in twcr is set, and twsr is updated with a status code indicating that the data packet has success- fully been sent. the status code will also reflect whether a slave acknowledged the packet or not. 7. the application software should now examine the value of twsr, to make sure that the data packet was successfully transmitted, and that the value of the ack bit was as expected. if twsr indicates otherwise, the application software might take some special action, like calling an error routine. assuming that the status code is as expected, the application must write a specific value to twcr, instructing the twi hardware to transmit a stop condition. which value to write is described later on. however, it is important that the twint bit is set in the value written. writing a one to twint clears the flag. the twi will not start any operation as long as the twint bit in twcr is set. immediately after the appli- cation has cleared twint, the twi will initiate transmission of the stop condition. note that twint is not set after a stop condition has been sent. even though this example is simple, it shows the principles involved in all twi transmis- sions. these can be summarized as follows: when the twi has finished an operation and expects application response, the twint flag is set. the scl line is pulled low until twint is cleared. when the twint flag is set, the user must update all twi registers with the value relevant for the next twi bus cycle. as an example, twdr must be loaded with the value to be transmitted in the next bus cycle. after all twi register updates and other pending application software tasks have been completed, twcr is written. when writing twcr, the twint bit should be set. writing a one to twint clears the flag. the twi will then commence executing whatever operation was specified by the twcr setting. in the following an assembly and c implementation of the example is given. note that the code below assumes that several definitions have been made, for example by using include-files. 179 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 assembly code example c example comments 1 ldi r16, (1< 181

interface, twsta must be written to one to transmit a start condition and twint must be written to one to clear the twint flag. the twi will then test the two-wire serial bus and generate a start con- dition as soon as the bus becomes free. after a start condition has been transmitted, the twint flag is set by hardware, and the status code in twsr will be $08 (see table 73). in order to enter mt mode, sla+w must be transmitted. this is done by writing sla+w to twdr. thereafter the twint bit should be cleared (by writing it to one) to continue the transfer. this is accomplished by writing the following value to twcr: when sla+w have been transmitted and an acknowledgement bit has been received, twint is set again and a number of status codes in twsr are possible. possible sta- tus codes in master mode are $18, $20, or $38. the appropriate action to be taken for each of these status codes is detailed in table 73. when sla+w has been successfully transmitted, a data packet should be transmitted. this is done by writing the data byte to twdr. twdr must only be written when twint is high. if not, the access will be discarded, and the write collision bit (twwc) will be set in the twcr register. after updating twdr, the twint bit should be cleared (by writing it to one) to continue the transfer. this is accomplished by writing the follow- ing value to twcr: this scheme is repeated until the last byte has been sent and the transfer is ended by generating a stop condition or a repeated start condition. a stop condition is gen- erated by writing the following value to twcr: a repeated start condition is generated by writing the following value to twcr: twcr twint twea twsta twsto twwc twen ? twie value 1 x10 x1 0 x twcr twint twea twsta twsto twwc twen ? twie value

twsta must be written to one to transmit a start condition and twint must be set to clear the twint flag. the twi will then test the two-wire serial bus and generate a start condition as soon as the bus becomes free. after a start condition has been transmitted, the twint flag is set by hardware, and the status code in twsr will be $08 (see table 73). in order to enter mr mode, sla+r must be transmitted. this is done by writing sla+r to twdr. thereafter the twint bit should be cleared (by writing it to one) to continue the transfer. this is accomplished by writing the following value to twcr: when sla+r have been transmitted and an acknowledgement bit has been received, twint is set again and a number of status codes in twsr are possible. possible sta- tus codes in master mode are $38, $40, or $48. the appropriate action to be taken for each of these status codes is detailed in table 74. received data can be read from the twdr register when the twint flag is set high by hardware. this scheme is repeated until the last byte has been received. after the last byte has been received, the mr should inform the st by sending a nack after the last received data byte. the transfer is ended by generating a stop condition or a repeated start condition. a stop con- dition is generated by writing the following value to twcr: a repeated start condition is generated by writing the following value to twcr: after a repeated start condition (state $10) the two-wire serial interface can access the same slave again, or a new slave without transmitting a stop condition.

acknowledgement of the device?s own slave address or the general call address. twsta and twsto must be written to zero. when twar and twcr have been initialized, the twi waits until it is addressed by its own slave address (or the general call address if enabled) followed by the data direction bit. if the direction bit is ?0? (write), the twi will operate in sr mode, otherwise st mode is entered. after its own slave address and the write bit have been received, the twint flag is set and a valid status code can be read from twsr. the status code is used to determine the appropriate software action. the appropriate action to be taken for each status code is detailed in table 75. the slave receiver mode may also be entered if arbitration is lost while the twi is in the master mode (see states $68 and $78). if the twea bit is reset during a transfer, the twi will return a ?not acknowledge? (?1?) to sda after the next received data byte. this can be used to indicate that the slave is not able to receive any more bytes. while twea is zero, the twi does not acknowledge its own slave address. however, the two-wire serial bus is still monitored and address recognition may resume at any time by setting twea. this implies that the twea bit may be used to temporarily isolate the twi from the two-wire serial bus. in all sleep modes other than idle mode, the clock system to the twi is turned off. if the twea bit is set, the interface can still acknowledge its own slave address or the general call address by using the two-wire serial bus clock as a clock source. the part will then wake up from sleep and the twi will hold the scl clock low during the wake up and until the twint flag is cleared (by writing it to one). further data reception will be car- ried out as normal, with the avr clocks running as normal. observe that if the avr is set up with a long start-up time, the scl line may be held low for a long time, blocking other data transmissions. note that the two-wire serial interface data register ?

(read), the twi will operate in st mode, otherwise sr mode is entered. after its own slave address and the write bit have been received, the twint flag is set and a valid status code can be read from twsr. the status code is used to determine the appropriate software action. the appropriate action to be taken for each status code is detailed in table 76. the slave transmitter mode may also be entered if arbitration is lost while the twi is in the master mode (see state $b0). if the twea bit is written to zero during a transfer, the twi will transmit the last byte of the transfer. state $c0 or state $c8 will be entered, depending on whether the master receiver transmits a nack or ack after the final byte. the twi is switched to the not addressed slave mode, and will ignore the master if it continues the transfer. thus the master receiver receives all ?1? as serial data. state $c8 is entered if the master demands additional data bytes (by transmitting ack), even though the slave has trans- mitted the last byte (twea zero and expecting nack from the master). while twea is zero, the twi does not respond to its own slave address. however, the two-wire serial bus is still monitored and address recognition may resume at any time by setting twea. this implies that the twea bit may be used to temporarily isolate the twi from the two-wire serial bus. in all sleep modes other than

do not correspond to a defined twi state, see table 77. status $f8 indicates that no relevant information is available because the twint flag is not set. this occurs between other states, and when the twi is not involved in a serial transfer. status $00 indicates that a bus error has occurred during a two-wire serial bus trans- fer. a bus error occurs when a start or stop condition occurs at an illegal position in the format frame. examples of such illegal positions are during the serial transfer of an address byte, a data byte, or an acknowledge bit. when a bus error occurs, twint is set. to recover from a bus error, the twsto flag must set and twint must be cleared by writing a logic one to it. this causes the twi to enter the not addressed slave mode and to clear the twsto flag (no other bits in twcr are affected). the sda and scl lines are released, and no stop condition is transmitted. s sla r a data a $a8 $b8 a $b0 reception of the own slave address and one or more data bytes

serial eeprom. typically, such a transfer involves the following steps: 1. the transfer must be initiated 2. the eeprom must be instructed what location should be read 3. the reading must be performed 4. the transfer must be finished note that data is transmitted both from master to slave and vice versa. the master must instruct the slave what location it wants to read, requiring the use of the mt mode. sub- sequently, data must be read from the slave, implying the use of the mr mode. thus, the transfer direction must be changed. the master must keep control of the bus during all these steps, and the steps should be carried out as an atomical operation. if this prin- ciple is violated in a multimaster system, another master can alter the data pointer in the eeprom between steps 2 and 3, and the master will read the wrong data location. such a change in transfer direction is accomplished by transmitting a repeated start between the transmission of the address byte and reception of the data. after a repeated start, the master keeps ownership of the bus. the following figure shows the flow in this transfer. figure 94. combining several twi modes to access a serial eeprom multi-master systems and arbitration if multiple masters are connected to the same bus, transmissions may be initiated simul- taneously by one or more of them. the twi standard ensures that such situations are handled in such a way that one of the masters will be allowed to proceed with the trans- fer, and that no data will be lost in the process. an example of an arbitration situation is depicted below, where two masters are trying to transmit data to a slave receiver. figure 95. an arbitration example master transmitter master receiver s = start rs = repeated start p = stop transmitted from master

194 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 several different scenarios may arise during arbitration, as described below: two or more masters are performing identical communication with the same slave. in this case, neither the slave nor any of the masters will know about the bus contention. two or more masters are accessing the same slave with different data or direction bit. in this case, arbitration will occur, either in the read/write bit or in the data bits. the masters trying to output a one on sda while another master outputs a zero will lose the arbitration. losing masters will switch to not addressed slave mode or wait until the bus is free and transmit a new start condition, depending on application software action. two or more masters are accessing different slaves. in this case, arbitration will occur in the sla bits. masters trying to output a one on sda while another master outputs a zero will lose the arbitration. masters losing arbitration in sla will switch to slave mode to check if they are being addressed by the winning master. if addressed, they will switch to sr or st mode, depending on the value of the read/write bit. if they are not being addressed, they will switch to not addressed slave mode or wait until the bus is free and transmit a new start condition, depending on application software action. this is summarized in figure 96. possible status values are given in circles. figure 96. possible status codes caused by arbitration own address / general call received arbitration lost in sla twi bus will be released and not addressed slave mode will be

atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 analog comparator the analog comparator compares the input values on the positive pin ain0 and nega- tive pin ain1. when the voltage on the positive pin ain0 is higher than the voltage on the negative pin ain1, the analog comparator output, aco, is set. the comparator?s output can be set to trigger the timer/counter1 input capture function. in addition, the comparator can trigger a separate interrup t, exclusive to the analog comparator. the user can select interrupt triggering on comparator output rise, fall or toggle. a block dia- gram of the comparator and its surrounding logic is shown in figure 97 . figure 97. analog comparator block diagram (2) notes: 1. see table 79 on page 197. 2. refer to figure 1 on page 2 and table 25 on page 55 for analog

analog comparator is switched off. this bit can be set at any time to turn off the analog comparator. this will reduce power consumption in active and idle mode. when changing the acd bit, the analog compar- ator interrupt must be disabled by clearing the acie bit in acsr. otherwise an interrupt can occur when the bit is changed. bit 6 ? acbg: analog comparator bandgap select when this bit is set, a fixed bandgap reference voltage replaces the positive input to the analog comparator. when this bit is cleared, ain0 is applied to the positive input of the analog comparator. see ?internal voltage

clock cycles. bit 4 ? aci: analog comparator interrupt flag this bit is set by hardware when a comparator output event triggers the interrupt mode defined by acis1 and acis0. the analog comparator interrupt routine is executed if the acie bit is set and the i-bit in sreg is set. aci is cleared by hardware when execut- ing the corresponding interrupt handling vector. alternatively, aci is cleared by writing a logic one to the flag. bit 3 ? acie: analog comparator interrupt enable when the acie bit is written logic one and the i-bit in the status register is set, the ana- log comparator interrupt is activated. when written logic zero, the interrupt is disabled. bit 2 ? acic: analog comparator input capture enable when written logic one, this bit enables the input capture function in timer/counter1 to be triggered by the analog comparator. the comparator output is in this case directly connected to the input capture front-end logic, making the comparator utilize the noise canceler and edge select features of the timer/counter1 input capture interrupt. when written logic zero, no connection between the analog comparator and the input capture function exists. to make the comparator trigger the timer/counter1 input capture inter- rupt, the ticie1 bit in the timer interrupt mask register (timsk) must be set. bits 1, 0 ? acis1, acis0: analog comparator interrupt mode

comparator multiplexed input it is possible to select any of the adc7..0 pins to replace the negative input to the ana- log comparator. the adc multiplexer is used to select this input, and consequently, the adc must be switched off to utilize this feature. if the analog comparator multiplexer enable bit (acme in sfior) is set and the adc is switched off (aden in adcsra is zero), mux2..0 in admux select the input pin to replace the negative input to the ana- log comparator, as shown in table 79. if acme is cleared or aden is set, ain1 is applied to the negative input to the analog comparator. table 79. analog comparator multiplexed input acme aden mux2..0 analog comparator negative input 0x xxxain1 11 xxxain1 1 0 000 adc0 1 0 001 adc1 1 0 010 adc2 1 0 011 adc3 1 0 100 adc4 1 0

for devices in tqfp and mlf packages the atmega16 features a 10-bit successive approximation adc. the adc is con- nected to an 8-channel analog multiplexer which allows 8 single-ended voltage inputs constructed from the pins of port a. the single-ended voltage inputs refer to 0v (gnd). the device also supports 16 differential voltage input combinations. two of the differen- tial inputs (adc1, adc0 and adc3, adc2 ) are equipped with a programmable gain stage, providing amplification steps of 0 db (1x), 20 db (10x), or 46 db (200x) on the dif- ferential input voltage before the a/d conversion. seven differential analog input channels share a common negative terminal (adc1), while any other adc input can be selected as the positive input terminal. if 1x or 10x gain is used, 8-bit resolution can be expected. if 200x gain is used, 7-bit resolution can be expected. the adc contains a sample and hold circuit which ensures that the input voltage to the adc is held at a constant level during conversion. a block diagram of the adc is shown in figure 98. the adc has a separate analog supply voltage pin, avcc. avcc must not differ more than 0.3 v from v cc . see the paragraph ?adc noise canceler? on page 206 on how to connect this pin. internal reference voltages of nominally 2.56v or avcc are provided on-chip. the volt- age reference may be externally decoupled at the aref pin by a capacitor for better noise performance. 199 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 98. analog to digital converter block schematic operation the adc converts an analog input voltage to a 10-bit digital value through successive approximation. the minimum value represents gnd and the maximum value represents the voltage on the aref pin minus 1 lsb. optionally, avcc or an internal 2.56v refer- ence voltage may be connected to the aref pi n by writing to the refsn bits in the admux register. the internal voltage reference may thus be decoupled by an external capacitor at the aref pin to improve noise immunity. the analog input channel and differential gain are selected by writing to the mux bits in admux. any of the adc input pins, as well as gnd and a fixed bandgap voltage refer- ence, can be selected as single ended inputs to the adc. a selection of adc input pins can be selected as positive and negative inputs to the differential gain amplifier. if differential channels are selected, the differential gain stage amplifies the voltage dif- ference between the selected input channel pair by the selected gain factor. this adc conversion complete irq 8-bit data bus 15 0 adc

bit, aden in adcsra. voltage refer- ence and input channel selections will not go into effect until aden is set. the adc does not consume power when aden is cleared, so it is recommended to switch off the adc before entering power saving sleep modes. the adc generates a 10-bit result which is presented in the adc data registers, adch and adcl. by default, the result is presented right adjusted, but can optionally be presented left adjusted by setting the adlar bit in admux. if the result is left adjusted and no more than 8-bit precision is required, it is sufficient to read adch. otherwise, adcl must be read first, then adch, to ensure that the content of the data registers belongs to the same conversion. once adcl is read, adc access to data registers is blocked. this means that if adcl has been read, and a conversion completes before adch is read, neither register is updated and the result from the con- version is lost. when adch is read, adc access to the adch and adcl registers is re-enabled. the adc has its own interrupt which can be triggered when a conversion completes. when adc access to the data registers is prohibited between reading of adch and adcl, the interrupt will trigger even if the result is lost. starting a conversion a single conversion is started by writing a logical one to the adc start conversion bit, adsc. this bit stays high as long as the conversion is in progress and will be cleared by hardware when the conversion is completed. if a different data channel is selected while a conversion is in progress, the adc will finish the current conversion before performing the channel change. alternatively, a conversion can be triggered automatically by various sources. auto trig- gering is enabled by setting the adc auto trigger enable bit, adate in adcsra. the trigger source is selected by setting the adc trigger select bits, adts in sfior (see description of the adts bits for a list of the trigger sources). when a positive edge occurs on the selected trigger signal, the adc prescaler is reset and a conversion is started. this provides a method of starting conversions at fixed intervals. if the trigger signal still is set when the conversion completes, a new conversion will not be started. if another positive edge occurs on the trigger signal during conversion, the edge will be ignored. note that an interrupt flag will be set even if the specific interrupt is disabled or the global interrupt enable bit in sreg is cleared. a conversion can thus be triggered without causing an interrupt. however, the interrupt flag must be cleared in order to trig- ger a new conversion at the next interrupt event. 201 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 99. adc auto trigger logic using the adc interrupt flag as a trigger source makes the adc start a new conversion as soon as the ongoing conversion has fini shed. the adc then operates in free run- ning mode, constantly sampling and updating the adc data register. the first conversion must be started by writing a logical one to the adsc bit in adcsra. in this mode the adc will perform successive conversions independently of whether the adc interrupt flag, adif is cleared or not. if auto triggering is enabled, single conversions can be started by writing adsc in adcsra to one. adsc can also be used to determine if a conversion is in progress. the adsc bit will be read as one during a conversion, independently of how the conver- sion was started. prescaling and conversion timing figure 100. adc prescaler by default, the successive approximation circuitry requires an input clock frequency between 50 khz and 200 khz to get maximum resolution. if a lower resolution than 10 bits is needed, the input clock frequency to the adc can be higher than 200 khz to get a higher sample rate. alternatively, setting the adhsm bit in sfior allows an increased adc clock frequency at the expense of higher power consumption. the adc module contains a prescaler, wh ich generates an acceptable adc clock fre- quency from any cpu frequency above 100 khz. the prescaling is set by the adps bits in adcsra. the prescaler starts counting from the moment the adc is switched on by adsc

initiating a single ended conversion by setting the adsc bit in adcsra, the con- version starts at the following rising edge of the adc clock cycle. see ?differential gain channels? on page 204 for details on differential conversion timing. a normal conversion takes 13 adc clock cycl es. the first conversion after the adc is switched on (aden in adcsra is set) takes 25 adc clock cycles in order to initialize the analog circuitry. the actual sample-and-hold takes place 1.5 adc clock cycles after the start of a normal conversion and 13.5 adc clock cycles after the start of an first conversion. when a con- version is complete, the result is written to the adc data registers, and adif is set. in single conversion mode, adsc is cleared simultaneously. the software may then set adsc again, and a new conversion will be initiated on the first rising adc clock edge. when auto triggering is used, the prescaler is reset when the trigger event occurs. this assures a fixed delay from the trigger event to the start of conversion. in this mode, the sample-and-hold takes place 2 adc clock cycl es after the rising edge on the trigger source signal. three additional cpu clock cycles are used for synchronization logic. in free running mode, a new conversion will be started immediately after the conver- sion completes, while adsc remains high. for a summary of conversion times, see table 80.

differential gain channels, cert ain aspects of the conversion need to be taken into consideration. differential conversions are synchronized to the internal clock ck adc2 equal to half the adc clock. this synchronization is done autom atically by the adc interface in such a way that the sample-and-hold occurs at a specific phase of ck adc2 . a conversion initi- ated by the user (i.e., all single conversions, and the first free running conversion) when ck adc2 is low will take the same amount of time as a single ended conversion (13 adc clock cycles from the next prescaled cloc k cycle). a conversion initiated by the user when ck adc2 is high will take 14 adc clock cycl es due to the sy nchronization mecha- nism. in free running mode, a new conversion is initiated immediately after the previous conversion completes, and since ck adc2 is high at this time, all automatically started (i.e., all but the first) free running conversions will take 14 adc clock cycles. the gain stage is optimized for a bandwidth of 4 khz at all gain settings. higher frequen- cies may be subjected to non-linear amplification. an external low-pass filter should be used if the input signal contains higher frequency components than the gain stage band- width. note that the adc clock frequency is independent of the gain stage bandwidth limitation. for example, the adc clock period may be 6 s, allowing a channel to be sampled at 12 ksps, regardless of the bandwidth of this channel. if differential gain channels are used and conversions are started by auto triggering, the adc must be switched off between conversion s. when auto triggering is used, the adc prescaler is reset before the conversion is started. since the gain stage is depen- dent of a stable adc clock prior to the conversion, this conversion will not be valid. by disabling and then re-enabling the adc between each conversion (writing aden in adcsra to ?0? then to ?1?), only extended conversions are performed. the result from the extended conversions will be valid. see ?prescaling and conversion timing? on page 201 for timing details. changing channel or reference selection the muxn and refs1:0 bits in the admux register are single buffered through a tem- porary register to which the cpu has random access. this ensures that the channels and reference selection only takes place at a safe point during the conversion. the channel and reference selection is continuously updated until a conversion is started. once the conversion starts, the channel and re ference selection is locked to ensure a sufficient sampling time for the adc. continuous updating resumes in the last adc clock cycle before the conversion completes (adif in adcsra is set). note that the conversion starts on the following rising adc clock edge after adsc is written. the user is thus advised not to write new channel or reference selection values to admux until one adc clock cycle after adsc is written. table 80. adc conversion

conversions, differential 1.5/2.5 13/14 205 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 if auto triggering is used, the exact time of the triggering event can be indeterministic. special care must be taken when updating the admux register, in order to control which conversion will be affected by the new settings. if both adate and aden is written to one, an interrupt event can occur at any time. if the admux register is changed in this period, the user cannot tell if the next conversion is based on the old or the new settings. admux can be safely updated in the following ways: 1. when adate or aden is cleared. 2. during conversion, minimum one adc clock cycle after the trigger event. 3. after a conversion, before the interrupt flag used as trigger source is cleared. when updating admux in one of these conditions, the new settings will affect the next adc conversion. special care should be taken when changing differential channels. once a differential channel has been selected, the gain stage may take as much as 125 s to stabilize to the new value. thus conversions should not be started within the first 125 s after selecting a new differential channel. alternatively, conversion results obtained within this period should be discarded. the same settling time should be observed for the first differential conversion after changing adc reference (by changing the refs1:0 bits in admux). the settling time and gain stage bandwidth is independent of the adhsm bit setting. adc input channels when changing channel selections, the user should observe the following guidelines to ensure that the correct channel is selected: in single conversion mode, always select the channel before starting the conversion. the channel selection may be changed one adc clock cycle after writing one to adsc. however, the simplest method is to wait for the conversion to complete before changing the channel selection. in free running mode, always select the channel before starting the first conversion. the channel selection may be changed one adc clock cycle after writing one to adsc. however, the simplest method is to wait for the first conversion to complete, and then change the channel selection. since the next conversion has already started automati- cally, the next result will reflect the previous channel selection. subsequent conversions will reflect the new channel selection. when switching to a differential gain chan nel, the first conversion result may have a poor accuracy due to the required settling time for the automatic offset cancellation cir- cuitry. the user should preferably disregard the first conversion result. adc voltage reference the reference voltage for the adc (v ref ) indicates the conversion range for the adc. single ended channels that exceed v ref will result in codes close to 0x3ff. v ref can be selected as either avcc, internal 2.56v reference, or external aref pin. avcc is connected to the adc through a passive switch. the internal 2.56v reference is generated from the internal bandgap reference (v bg ) through an internal amplifier. in either case, the external aref pin is directly connected to the adc, and the reference voltage can be made more immune to noise by connecting a capacitor between the aref pin and ground. v ref can also be measured at the aref pin with a high impedant voltmeter. note that v ref is a high impedant source, and only a capacitive load should be connected in a system. 206 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 if the user has a fixed voltage source connected to the aref pin, the user may not use the other reference voltage options in the application, as they will be shorted to the external voltage. if no external voltage is applied to the aref pin, the user may switch between avcc and 2.56v as reference selection. the first adc conversion result after switching reference voltage source may be i naccurate, and the user is advised to dis- card this result. if differential channels are used, the selected reference should not be closer to avcc than indicated in table 121 on page 291. adc noise canceler the adc features a noise canceler that enables conversion during sleep mode to reduce noise induced from the cpu core and other i/o peripherals. the noise canceler can be used with adc noise reduction and idle mode. to make use of this feature, the following procedure should be used: 1. make sure that the adc is enabled and is not busy converting. single con- version mode must be selected and the adc conversion complete interrupt must be enabled. 2. enter adc noise reduction mode (or idle mode). the adc will start a con- version once the cpu has been halted. 3. if no other interrupts occur before the adc conversion completes, the adc interrupt will wake up the cpu and execute the adc conversion complete interrupt routine. if another interrupt wakes up the cpu before the adc con- version is complete, that interrupt will be executed, and an adc conversion complete interrupt request will be generated when the adc conversion completes. the cpu will remain in active mode until a new sleep command is executed. note that the adc will not be automatically turned off when entering other sleep modes than idle mode and adc noise reduction mode. the user is advised to write zero to aden before entering such sleep modes to avoid excessive power consumption. if the adc is enabled in such sleep modes and the user wants to perform differential conver- sions, the user is advised to switch the adc off and on after waking up from sleep to prompt an extended conversion to get a valid result. analog input circuitry the analog input circuitry for single ended channels is illustrated in figure 105. an ana- log source applied to adcn is subjected to the pin capacitance and input leakage of that pin, regardless of whether that channel is selected as input for the adc. when the chan- nel is selected, the source must drive the s/h capacitor through the series resistance (combined resistance in the input path). the adc is optimized for analog signals wi th an output impedance of approximately 10 k ? or less. if such a source is used, the sampling time will be negligible. if a source with higher impedance is used, the sampling time will depend on how long time the source needs to charge the s/h capacitor, wi th can vary widely. the user is recom- mended to only use low impedant sources with slowly varying signals, since this minimizes the required charge transfer to the s/h capacitor. if differential gain channels are used, the i nput circuitry looks somewhat different, although source impedances of a few hundred k ? or less is recommended. signal components higher than the nyquist frequency (f adc /2) should not be present for either kind of channels, to avoid distortion from unpredictable signal convolution. the user is advised to remove high frequency components with a low-pass filter before applying the signals as inputs to the adc. 207 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 105. analog input circuitry analog noise canceling techniques digital circuitry inside and outside the device generates emi which might affect the accuracy of analog measurements. if conversion accuracy is critical, the noise level can be reduced by applying the following techniques: 1. keep analog signal paths as short as possible. make sure analog tracks run over the analog ground plane, and keep them well away from high-speed switching digital tracks. 2. the avcc pin on the device should be connected to the digital v cc supply voltage via an lc network as shown in figure 106. 3. use the adc noise canceler function to reduce induced noise from the cpu. 4. if any adc port pins are used as digital outputs, it is essential that these do not switch while a conversion is in progress. figure 106. adc power connections adcn i ih 1..100 k ? c s/h = 14 pf v cc /2 i il gnd vcc pa0 (adc0) pa1 (adc1) pa2 (adc2) pa3 (adc3) pa4 (adc4) pa5 (adc5)

nulls the offset of differen- tial measurements as much as possible. the remaining offset in the analog path can be measured directly by selecting the same channel for both differential inputs. this offset residue can be then subtracted in software from the measurement results. using this kind of software based offset correction, offset on any channel can be reduced below one lsb. adc accuracy definitions an n-bit single-ended adc converts a voltage linearly between gnd and v ref in 2 n steps (lsbs). the lowest code is read as 0, and the highest code is read as 2 n -1. several parameters describe the deviation from the ideal behavior: offset: the deviation of the first transition (0x000 to 0x001) compared to the ideal transition (at 0.5 lsb). ideal value: 0 lsb. figure 107. offset error gain error: after adjusting for offset, the gain error is found as the deviation of the last transition (0x3fe to 0x3ff) compared to the ideal transition (at 1.5 lsb below maximum). ideal value: 0 lsb figure 108. gain error output code v ref input voltage ideal adc actual adc offset error output code v ref input voltage ideal adc actual adc gain error 209 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 integral

for single ended conversion, the result is where v in is the voltage on the selected input pin and v ref the selected voltage refer- ence (see table 82 on page 211 and table 83 on page 212). 0x000 represents analog ground, and 0x3ff represents the selected reference voltage minus one lsb. if differential channels are used, the result is where v pos is the voltage on the positive input pin, v neg the voltage on the negative input pin, gain the selected gain factor, and v ref the selected voltage reference. the result is presented in two?s complement form, from 0x200 (-512d) through 0x1ff (+511d). note that if the user wants to perform a quick polarity check of the results, it is sufficient to read the msb of the result (adc9 in adch). if this bit is one, the result is negative, and if this bit is zero, the result is positive. figure 111 shows the decoding of the differential input range. table 81 shows the resulting output codes if the differential input channel pair (adcn - adcm)

same time as the adc is enabled, will take 25 adc clock cycles instead of the normal 13. this first conversion performs initialization of the adc. adsc will read as one as long as a conversion is in

for break conditions, including ?avr break instruction ? break on change of program memory flow ? single step break ? program memory breakpoints on single address or address range ? data memory breakpoints on single address or address range programming of flash, eeprom, fuses, and lock bits through the jtag interface on-chip debugging supported by avr studio ? overview the avr ieee std. 1149.1 compliant jtag interface can be used for testing pcbs by using the jtag boundary-scan capability programming the non-volatile memories, fuses and lock bits on-chip debugging a brief description is given in the following sections. detailed descriptions for program- ming via the jtag interface, and using the boundary-scan chain can be found in the sections ?programming via the jtag interface? on page 272 and ?ieee 1149.1 (jtag) boundary-scan? on page 222 , respectively. the on-chip debug support is considered being private jtag instructions, and distributed within atmel and to selected third party vendors only. figure 112 shows a block diagram of the jtag interface and the on-chip debug sys- tem. the tap controller is a state machine controlled by the tck and tms signals. the tap controller selects either the jtag instruction register or one of several data reg- isters as the scan chain (shift regist er) between the tdi input and tdo output. the instruction register holds jtag instructions controlling the behavior of a data register. the id-register, bypass register, and the boundary-scan chain are the data registers used for board-level testing. the jtag programming interface (actually consisting of several physical and virtual data registers) is used for jtag serial programming via the jtag interface. the internal scan chain and break point scan chain are used for on-chip debugging only. test access port ? tap the jtag interface is accessed through four of the avr?s pins. in jtag terminology, these pins constitute the test access port ? tap. these pins are: tms: test mode select. this pin is used for navigating through the tap-controller state machine. tck: test clock. jtag operation is synchronous to tck. tdi: test data in. serial input data to be shifted in to the instruction register or data register (scan chains). tdo: test data out. serial output data from instruction register or data register. 217 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 the ieee std. 1149.1 also specifies an optional tap signal; trst ? test reset ? which is not provided. when the jtagen fuse is unprogrammed, these four tap pins are normal port pins, and the tap controller is in reset. when programmed, the input tap signals are inter- nally pulled high and the jtag is enabled for boundary-scan and programming. the device is shipped with this fuse programmed. for the on-chip debug system, in addition to the jtag interface pins, the reset pin is monitored by the debugger to be able to detect external reset sources. the debuggerbta can also pull the reset pin low to reset the whole system, assuming only open collec- tors on the reset line are used in the application. figure 112. block diagram tap controller tdi tdo tck tms flash memory avr cpu digital peripheral units

2466e?avr?10/02 figure 113. tap controller state diagram tap controller the tap controller is a 16-state finite state machine that controls the operation of the boundary-scan circuitry, jtag programming circuitry, or on-chip debug system. the state transitions depicted in figure 113 depend on the signal present on tms (shown adjacent to each state transition) at the time of the rising edge at tck. the initial state after a power-on reset is test-logic-reset. as a definition in this document, the lsb is shifted in and out first for all shift registers. assuming run-test/idle is the present state, a typical scenario for using the jtag inter- face is: at the tms input, apply the sequence 1, 1, 0, 0 at the rising edges of tck to enter the shift instruction register ? shift-ir state. while in this state, shift the four bits of the jtag instructions into the jtag instruction register from the tdi input at the rising edge of tck. the tms input must be held low during input of the 3 lsbs in order to remain in the shift-ir state. the msb of the instruction is shifted in when test-logic-reset run-test/idle shift-dr exit1-dr pause-dr exit2-dr update-dr select-ir scan capture-ir shift-ir exit1-ir pause-ir exit2-ir update-ir select-dr scan capture-dr 0 1 0 11 1 00 00 11 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 219 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 this state is left by setting tms high. while the instruction is shifted in from the tdi pin, the captured ir-state 0x01 is shifted out on the tdo pin. the jtag instruction selects a particular data register as path between tdi and tdo and controls the circuitry surrounding the selected data register. apply the tms sequence 1, 1, 0 to re-enter the run-test/idle state. the instruction is latched onto the parallel output from the shift register path in the update-ir state. the exit-ir, pause-ir, and exit2-ir states are only used for navigating the state machine. at the tms input, apply the sequence 1, 0, 0 at the rising edges of tck to enter the shift data register ? shift-dr state. while in this state, upload the selected data register (selected by the present jtag instruction in the jtag instruction register) from the tdi input at the rising edge of tck. in order to remain in the shift-dr state, the tms input must be held low during input of all bits except the msb. the msb of the data is shifted in when this state is left by setting tms high. while the data register is shifted in from the tdi pin, the parallel inputs to the data register captured in the capture-dr state is shifted out on the tdo pin. apply the tms sequence 1, 1, 0 to re-enter the run-test/idle state. if the selected data register has a latched parallel-output, the latching takes place in the update- dr state. the exit-dr, pause-dr, and exit2-dr states are only used for navigating the state machine. as shown in the state diagram, the run-test/idle state need not be entered between selecting jtag instruction and using data registers, and some jtag instructions may select certain functions to be performed in the run-test/idle, making it unsuitable as an idle state. note: independent of the initial state of the tap controller, the test-logic-reset state can always be entered by holding tms high for five tck clock periods. for detailed information on the jtag specification, refer to the literature listed in ?bibli- ography? on page 221. using the boundary- scan chain a complete description of the boundary-scan capabilities are given in the section ?ieee 1149.1 (jtag) boundary-scan? on page 222. using the on-chip debug system as shown in figure 112, the hardware s upport for on-chip debugging consists mainly of: a scan chain on the interface between the internal avr cpu and the internal peripheral units break point unit communication interface between the cpu and jtag system all read or modify/write operations needed for implementing the debugger are done by applying avr instructions via the internal avr cpu scan chain. the cpu sends the result to an i/o memory mapped location which is part of the communication interface between the cpu and the jtag system. the break point unit implements break on change of program flow, single step break, 2 program memory break points, and 2 combined break points. together, the 4 break points can be configured as either: 4 single program memory break points 3 single program memory break point + 1 single data memory break point 2 single program memory break points + 2 single data memory break points 220 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 2 single program memory break points + 1 program memory break point with mask (?range break point?) 2 single program memory break points + 1 data memory break point with mask (?range break point?) a debugger, like the avr studio, may however use one or more of these resources for its internal purpose, leaving less flexibility to the end-user. a list of the on-chip debug specific jtag instructions is given in ?on-chip debug spe- cific jtag instructions? on page 220. the jtagen fuse must be programmed to enable the jtag test access port. in addi- tion, the ocden fuse must be programmed and no lock bits must be set for the on- chip debug system to work. as a security feature, the on-chip debug system is disabled when any lock bits are set. otherwise, the on-chip debug system would have provided a back-door into a secured device. the avr jtag ice from atmel is a powerful development tool for on-chip debugging of all avr 8-bit risc microcontrollers with ieee 1149.1 compliant jtag interface. the jtag ice and the avr studio user interface give the user complete control of the inter- nal resources of the microcontroller, helpi ng to reduce development time by making debugging easier. the jtag ice performs real-time emulation of the micrcontroller while it is running in a target system. please refer to the support tools section on the avr pages on www.atmel.com for a full description of the avr jteg ice. avr studio can be downloaded free from software section on the same web site. all necessary execution commands are avail able in avr studio, both on source level and on disassembly level. the user can execute the program, single step through the code either by tracing into or stepping over functions, step out of functions, place the cursor on a statement and execute until the statement is reached, stop the execution, and reset the execution target. in addition, the user can have an unlimited number of code breakpoints (using the break instruction) and up to two data memory break- points, alternatively combined as a mask (range) break point. on-chip debug specific jtag instructions the on-chip debug support is considered being private jtag instructions, and distrib- uted within atmel and to selected third party vendors only. instruction opcodes are listed for reference. private0; $8 private jtag instruction for accessing on-chip debug system. private1; $9 private jtag instruction for accessing on-chip debug system. private2; $a private jtag instruction for accessing on-chip debug system. private3; $b private jtag instruction for accessing on-chip debug system. 221 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 on-chip debug related register in i/o memory on-chip debug register ? ocdr the ocdr register provides a communication channel from the runn ing program in the microcontroller to the debugger. the cpu can transfer a byte to the debugger by writing to this location. at the same time, an internal flag; i/o debug register dirty ? idrd ? is set to indicate to the debugger that the register has been written. when the cpu reads the ocdr register the 7 lsb will be from the ocdr register, while the msb is the idrd bit. the debugger clears the idrd bit when it has read the information. in some avr devices, this register is shared with a standard i/o location. in this case, the ocdr register can only be accessed if the ocden fuse is programmed, and the debugger enables access to the ocdr register. in all other cases, the standard i/o location is accessed. refer to the debugger documentation for further information on how to use this register. using the jtag programming capabilities programming of avr parts via jtag is performed via the 4-pin jtag port, tck, tms, tdi and tdo. these are the only pins that need to be controlled/observed to perform jtag programming (in addition to power pins). it is not required to apply 12v externally. the jtagen fuse must be programmed and the jtd bit in the mcusr register must be cleared to enable the jtag test access port. the jtag programming capability supports: flash programming and verifying eeprom programming and verifying fuse programming and verifying lock bit programming and verifying the lock bit security is exactly as in parallel programming mode. if the lock bits lb1 or lb2 are programmed, the ocden fuse cannot be programmed unless first doing a chip erase. this is a security feature that ensures no back-door exists for reading out the content of a secured device. the details on programming through the jtag interface and programming specific jtag instructions are given in the section ?programming via the jtag interface? on page 272. bibliography for more information about general boundary-scan, the following literature can be consulted: ieee: ieee std 1149.1-1990. ieee

capabilities according to the jtag standard full scan of all port functions as well as analog circuitry having off-chip connections supports the optional idcode instruction additional public avr_reset instruction to reset the avr system overview the boundary-scan chain has the capability of driving and observing the logic levels on the digital i/o pins, as well as the boundary between digital and analog logic for analog circuitry having off-chip connections. at system level, all ics having jtag capabilities are connected serially by the tdi/tdo signals to form a long shift register. an external controller sets up the devices to drive values at their output pins, and observe the input values received from other devices. the controller compares the received data with the expected result. in this way, boundary-scan provides a mechanism for testing intercon- nections and integrity of components on printed circuits boards by using the four tap signals only. the four ieee 1149.1 defined mandatory jtag instructions idcode, bypass, sam- ple/preload, and extest, as well as the avr specific public jtag instruction avr_reset can be used for testing the printed circuit board. initial scanning of the data register path will show the id-code of the device, since idcode is the default jtag instruction. it may be desirable to have the avr device in reset during test mode. if not reset, inputs to the device may be determined by the scan operations, and the internal software may be in an undetermined state when exiting the test mode. entering reset, the outputs of any port pin will instantly enter the high impedance state, making the highz instruction redundant. if needed, the bypass instruction can be issued to make the shortest possible scan chain through the device. the device can be set in the reset state either by pulling the external reset pin low, or issuing the avr_reset instruction with appropriate setting of the reset data register. the extest instruction is used for sampling external pins and loading output pins with data. the data from the output latch will be driven out on the pins as soon as the extest instruction is loaded into the jtag ir-register. therefore, the sample/pre- load should also be used for setting initial values to the scan ring, to avoid damaging the board when issuing the extest instruct ion for the first time. sample/preload can also be used for taking a snapshot of the external pins during normal operation of the part. the jtagen fuse must be programmed and the jtd bit in the i/o register mcucsr must be cleared to enable the jtag test access port. when using the jtag interface for boundary-scan, using a jtag tck clock frequency higher than the internal chip frequency is possible. the chip clock is not required to run. data registers the data registers relevant for boundary-scan operations are: bypass register device identification register reset register boundary-scan chain 223 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 bypass register the bypass register consists of a single shift register stage. when the bypass regis- ter is selected as path between tdi and tdo, the register is reset to 0 when leaving the capture-dr controller state. the bypass register can be used to shorten the scan chain on a system when the other devices are to be tested. device identification register figure 114 shows the structure of the device identification register. figure 114. the format of the device identification register version version is a 4 bit number identifying the revision of the component. the relevant version number is shown in table 86. part number the part number is a 16-bit code identifying the component. the jtag part number for atmega16 is listed in table 87. manufacturer id the manufacturer id is a 11 bit code identifying the manufacturer. the jtag manufac- turer id for atmel is listed in table 88. reset register the reset register is a test data register used to reset the part. since the avr tri- states port pins when reset, the reset regi ster can also replace the function of the unimplemented optional jtag instruction highz. a high value in the reset register corresponds to pulling the external reset low. the part is reset as long as there is a high value present in the reset register. depending on the fuse settings for the clock options, the part will remain reset for a reset time- out period (refer to ?clock sources? on page 23) after releasing the reset register. the output from this data register is not latched, so the reset will take place immediately, as shown in figure 115. msb lsb bit 3128271211 1 0 device id version part number manufacturer id 1 4 bits 16 bits 11 bits 1 bit table 86. jtag version numbers version jtag version number

well as the boundary between digital and analog logic for analog circuitry having off-chip connections. see ?boundary-scan chain? on page 226 for a complete description. boundary-scan specific jtag instructions the instruction register is 4-bit wide, supporting up to 16 instructions. listed below are the jtag instructions useful for boundary-scan operation. note that the optional highz instruction is not implemented, but all outputs with tri-state capability can be set in high- impedant state by using the avr_reset instru ction, since the initial state for all port pins is tri-state. as a definition in this data sheet, the lsb is shifted in and out first for all shift registers. the opcode for each instruction is shown behind the instruction name in hex format. the text describes which data register is selected as path between tdi and tdo for each instruction. extest; $0 mandatory jtag instruction for selecting the boundary-scan chain as data register for testing circuitry external to the avr pa ckage. for port-pins, pull-up disable, output control, output data, and input data are all accessible in the scan chain. for analog cir- cuits having off-chip connections, the interface between the analog and the digital logic is in the scan chain. the contents of the latched outputs of the boundary-scan chain is driven out as soon as the jtag ir-register is loaded with the extest instruction. the active states are: capture-dr: data on the external pins are sampled into the boundary-scan chain. shift-dr: the internal scan chain is shifted by the tck input. update-dr: data from the scan chain is applied to output pins. idcode; $1 optional jtag instruction selecting the 32-bit id register as data register. the id regis- ter consists of a version number, a dev ice number and the manufacturer code chosen by jedec. this is the default instruction after power-up. the active states are: capture-dr: data in the idcode register is sampled into the boundary-scan chain. shift-dr: the idcode scan chain is shifted by the tck input. dq from tdi clockdr avr_reset to tdo from other internal and external reset sources internal reset 225 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 sample_preload; $2 mandatory jtag instruction for pre-loading the output latches and talking a snap-shot of the input/output pins without affecting the system operation. however, the output latches are not connected to the pins. the boundary-scan chain is selected as data register. the active states are: capture-dr: data on the external pins are sampled into the boundary-scan chain. shift-dr: the boundary-scan chain is shifted by the tck input. update-dr: data from the boundary-scan chain is applied to the output latches. however, the output latches are not connected to the pins. avr_reset; $c the avr specific public jtag instruction for forcing the avr device into the reset mode or releasing the jtag reset source. the tap controller is not reset by this instruction. the one bit reset register is selected as data register. note that the reset will be active as long as there is a logic ' one' in the reset chain. the output from this chain is not latched. the active states are: shift-dr: the reset register is shifted by the tck input. bypass; $f mandatory jtag instruction selecting the bypass register for data register. the active states are: capture-dr: loads a logic ?0? into the bypass register. shift-dr: the bypass register cell between tdi and tdo is shifted. boundary-scan related register in i/o memory mcu control and status register ? mcucsr the mcu control and status register contains control bits for general mcu functions, and provides information on which reset source caused an mcu reset. bits 7 ? jtd: jtag interface disable when this bit is zero, the jtag interface is enabled if the jtagen fuse is programmed. if this bit is one, the jtag interface is disabled. in order to avoid unintentional disabling or enabling of the jtag interface, a timed sequence must be followed when changing this bit: the application software must write this bit to the desired value twice within four cycles to change its value. bit 4 ? jtrf: jtag reset flag this bit is set if a reset is being caused by a logic one in the jtag reset register selected by the jtag instruction avr_reset. this bit is reset by a power-on reset, or by writing a logic zero to the flag. bit 76543210 jtd isc2 ?jtrf wdrf borf extrf porf mcucsr read/write r/w r/w r r/w r/w r/w r/w r/w initial value 0 0 0 see bit description 226 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 boundary-scan chain the boundary-scan chain has the capability of driving and observing the logic levels on the digital i/o pins, as well as the boundary between digital and analog logic for analog circuitry having off-chip connection. scanning the digital port pins figure 116 shows the boundary-scan cell for a bi-directional port pin with pull-up func- tion. the cell consists of a standard boundary-scan cell for the pull-up enable ? puexn ? function, and a bi-directional pin cell that combines the three signals output control ? ocxn, output data ? odxn, and input data ? idxn, into only a two-stage shift register. the port and pin indexes are not used in the following description. the boundary-scan logic is not included in the figures in the data sheet. figure 117 shows a simple digital port pin as described in the section ?i/o ports? on page 47. the boundary-scan details from figure 116 replaces the dashed box in figure 117. when no alternate port function is present, the input data ? id ? corresponds to the pinxn register value (but id has no synchronizer), output data corresponds to the port register, output control corresponds to the data direction ? dd register, and the pull-up enable ? puexn ? corresponds to logic expression pud ddxn portxn. digital alternate port functions are connected outside the dotted box in figure 117 to make the scan chain read the actual pin value. for analog function, there is a direct connection from the external pin to the analog circuit, and a scan chain is inserted on the interface between the digital logic and the analog circuitry. figure

enable ? tw ien. as shown in figure 118, the twien signal enables a tri-state buffer with slew-rate control in parallel with the ordinary digital port pins. a general scan cell as shown in figure 122 is attached to the twien signal. notes: 1. a separate scan chain for the 50 ns spike filter on the input is not provided. the ordi- nary scan support for digital port pins suffice for connectivity tests. the only reason for having twien in the scan path, is to be able to disconnect the slew-rate control buffer when doing boundary-scan. 2. make sure the oc and twien signals are not asserted simultaneously, as this will lead to drive contention. clk rpx rrx wpx rdx wdx pud synchronizer wdx: write ddrx wpx: write portx rrx: read portx register rpx: read portx pin pud: pullup disable clk :

pin the reset pin accepts 5v active low logic for standard reset operation, and 12v active high logic for high voltage parallel programming. an observe-only cell as shown in fig- ure 119 is inserted both for the 5v reset signal; rstt, and the 12v reset signal; rsthv. figure 119. observe-only cell scanning the clock pins the avr devices have many clock options selectable by fuses. these are: internal rc oscillator, external rc, exte rnal clock, (high frequency) crystal oscillator, low fre- quency crystal oscillator, and ceramic resonator. figure 120 shows how each oscillator with external connection is supported in the scan chain. the enable signal is supported with a general boundary-scan cell, while the oscillator/clock output is attached to an observe-only cell. in addition to the main clock, the timer oscillator is scanned in the same way. the output from the internal rc oscil- lator is not scanned, as this oscillator does not have external connections. pxn puexn odxn idxn

oscillators and clock options table 89 summaries the scan registers for the external clock pin xtal1, oscillators with xtal1/xtal2 connections as well as 32 khz timer oscillator. notes: 1. do not enable more than one clock source as main clock at a time. 2. scanning an oscillator output gives unpredictable results as there is a frequency drift between the internal oscillator and the jtag tck clock. if possible, scanning an external clock is preferred. 3. the clock configuration is programmed by fuses. as a fuse is not changed run-time, the clock configuration is considered fixed for a given application. the user is advised to scan the same clock option as to be used in the final system. the enable signals are supported in the scan chain because the system logic can disable clock options in sleep modes, thereby disconnecting the oscillator pins from the scan path if not provided. the intcap fuses are not supported in the scan-chain, so the boundary scan chain can not make a xtal oscillator requiring internal capacitors to run unless the fuse is correctly programmed. scanning the analog comparator the relevant comparator signals regarding boundary-scan are shown in figure 121. the boundary-scan cell from figure 122 is attached to each of these signals. the sig- nals are described in table 90. the comparator need not be used for pure connectivity testing, since all analog inputs are shared with a digital port pin as well. table 89. scan signals for the oscillators (1)(2)(3) enable signal scanned clock line clock option scanned clock line when not used extclken

describes what jtag instruction to be used before filling the boundary-scan register with the succeeding columns. the verification should be done on the data scanned out when scanning in the data on the same row in the table. the lower limit is: 1024 1.5 v 0,95 5 v ?

read-while-write self-programming the boot loader support provides a real read-while-write self-programming mecha- nism for downloading and uploading program code by the mcu itself. this feature allows flexible application software updates controlled by the mcu using a flash-resi- dent boot loader program. the boot loader program can use any available data interface and associated protocol to read code and write (program) that code into the flash memory, or read the code from the program memory. the program code within the boot loader section has the capability to write into the entire flash, including the boot loader memory. the boot loader can thus even modify itself, and it can also erase itself from the code if the feature is not needed anymore. the size of the boot loader memory is configurable with fuses and the boot loader has two separate sets of boot lock bits which can be set independently. this gives the user a unique flexibility to select different levels of protection. features read-while-write self-programming flexible boot memory size high security (separate boot lock bits for a flexible protection) separate fuse to select reset vector optimized page (1) size code efficient algorithm efficient read-modify-write support note: 1. a page is a section in the flash consisting of several bytes (see table 110 on page 258 ) used during programming. the page organization does not affect normal operation. application and boot loader flash sections the flash memory is organized in two main sections, the application section and the boot loader section (see figure 125). the size of the different sections is configured by the bootsz fuses as shown in table 99 on page 252 and figure 125. these two sec- tions can have different level of protection since they have different sets of lock bits. application section the application section is the section of the flash that is used for storing the application code. the protection level for the application section can be selected by the application boot lock bits (boot lock bits 0), see table 95 on page 244. the application section can never store any boot loader code since the spm instruction is disabled when exe- cuted from the application section. bls ? boot loader section while the application section is used for storing the application code, the the boot loader software must be located in the bls since the spm instruction can initiate a pro- gramming when executing from the bls only. the spm instruction can access the entire flash, including the bls itself. the protection level for the boot loader section can be selected by the boot loader lock bits (boot lock bits 1), see table 96 on page 244. read-while-write and no read-while-write flash sections whether the cpu supports read-while-write or if the cpu is halted during a boot loader software update is dependent on which address that is being programmed. in addition to the two sections that are conf igurable by the bootsz fuses as described above, the flash is also divided into two fixed sections, the read-while-write (rww) section and the no read-while-write (nrww) section. the limit between the rww- and nrww sections is given in table 100 on page 252 and figure 125 on page 243. the main difference between the two sections is: when erasing or writing a page located inside the rww section, the nrww section can be read during the operation. when erasing or writing a page located inside the nrww section, the cpu is halted during the entire operation. 242 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 note that the user software can never read any code that is located inside the rww section during a boot loader software operation. the syntax ?read-while-write sec- tion? refers to which section that is being programmed (erased or written), not which section that actually is being read during a boot loader software update. rww ? read-while-write section if a boot loader software update is programming a page inside the rww section, it is possible to read code from the flash, but only code that is located in the nrww sec- tion. during an on-going programming, the software must ensure that the rww section never is being read. if the user software is trying to read code that is located inside the rww section (i.e., by a call/jmp/lpm or an interrupt) during programming, the software might end up in an unknown state. to avoid this, the interrupts should either be disabled or moved to the boot loader section. the boot loader section is always located in the nrww section. the rww section busy bit (rwwsb) in the store program memory control register (spmcr) will be read as logical one as long as the rww section is blocked for reading. after a programming is completed, the rwwsb must be cleared by software before reading code located in the rww section. see ?store program memory control register ? spmcr? on page 245. for details on how to clear rwwsb. nrww ? no read-while-write section the code located in the nrww section can be read when the boot loader software is updating a page in the rww section. when the boot loader code updates the nrww section, the cpu is halted during the entire page erase or page write operation. figure 124. read-while-write vs. no read-while-write table 94. read-while-write features which section does the z- pointer address during the programming?

spmen: store program memory enable this bit enables the spm instruction for the next four clock cycles. if written to one together with either rwwsre, blbset, pgwrt? or pgers, the following spm instruction will have a special meaning, see description above. if only spmen is written, the following spm instruction will store the value in r1:r0 in the temporary page buffer addressed by the z-pointer. the lsb of the z-pointer is ignored. the spmen bit will auto-clear upon completion of an spm instruction, or if no spm instruction is executed within four clock cycles. during page erase and page write, the spmen bit remains high until the operation is completed. writing any other combination than ?10001?, ?01001?, ?00101?, ?00011? or ?00001? in the lower five bits will have no effect. addressing the flash during self- programming the z-pointer is used to address the spm commands. since the flash is organized in pages (see table 110 on page 258), the program counter can be treated as having two different sections. one section, consisting of the least significant bits, is addressing the word s within a page, while the most significant bits are addressing the pages. th is is shown in figure 126. note that the page erase and page write operations are addressed independently. therefore it is of major impor- tance that the boot loader software addresses the same page in both the page erase and page write operation. once a programming operation is initiated, the address is latched and the z-pointer can be used for other operations. the only spm operation that does not use the z-pointer is setting the boot loader lock bits. the content of the z-pointer is ignored and will have no effect on the operation. the lpm instruction does also use the z pointer to store the address. since this instruction addresses the flash byte by byte, also the lsb (bit z0) of the z-pointer is used. bit 151413121110 9 8 zh (r31) z15 z14 z13 z12 z11 z10 z9 z8 zl (r30) z7 z6 z5 z4 z3 z2 z1 z0 76543210 247 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 126. addressing the flash during spm (1) note: 1. the different variables used in figure 126 are listed in table 101 on page 252. self-programming the flash the program memory is updated in a page by page fashion. before programming a page with the data stored in the temporary page buffer, the page must be erased. the temporary page buffer is filled one word at a time using spm and the buffer can be filled either before the page erase command or between a page erase and a page write operation: alternative 1, fill the buffer before a page erase fill temporary page buffer perform a page erase perform a page write alternative 2, fill the buffer after page erase perform a page erase fill temporary page buffer perform a page write if only a part of the page needs to be changed, the rest of the page must be stored (for example in the temporary page buffer) before the erase, and then be rewritten. when using alternative 1, the boot loader provides an effective read-modify-write feature which allows the user software to first read the page, do the necessary changes, and then write back the modified data. if alternative 2 is used, it is not possible to read the old data while loading since the page is already erased. the temporary page buffer can be accessed in a random sequence. it is essential that the page address used in both the page erase and page write operation is addressing the same page. see ?simple assembly code example for a boot loader?

to spmcr and execute spm within four clock cycles after writing spmcr. the data in r1 and r0 is ignored. the page address must be written to pcpage. other bits in the z- pointer must be written zero during this operation. page write to the rww section: the nrww section can be read during the page write. page write to the nrww section: the cpu is halted during the operation. using the spm interrupt if the spm interrupt is enabled, the spm interrupt will generate a constant interrupt when the spmen bit in spmcr is cleared. th is means that the interrupt can be used instead of polling the spmcr register in software. when using the spm interrupt, the interrupt vectors should be moved to the bls section to avoid that an interrupt is accessing the rww section when it is blocked for reading. how to move the interrupts is described in ?interrupts? on page 42. consideration while updating bls special care must be taken if the user allows the boot loader section to be updated by leaving boot lock bit11 unprogrammed. an accidental write to the boot loader itself can corrupt the entire boot loader, and further software updates might be impossible. if it is not necessary to change the boot loader software itself, it is recommended to program the boot lock bit11 to protect the boot loader software from any internal software changes. prevent reading the rww section during self- programming during self-programming (either page erase or page write), the rww section is always blocked for reading. the user software itself must prevent that this section is addressed during the self-programming operation. the rwwsb in the spmcr will be set as long as the rww section is busy. during self-programming the interrupt vector table should be moved to the bls as described in ?interrupts? on page 42, or the inter- rupts must be disabled. before addressing the rww section after the programming is completed, the user software must clear the rwwsb by writing the rwwsre. see ?simple assembly code example for a boot loader? on page 250 for an example. setting the boot loader lock bits by spm to set the boot loader lock bits, write the desired data to r0, write ?x0001001? to spmcr and execute spm within four clock cycles after writing spmcr. the only accessible lock bits are the boot lock bits that may prevent the application and boot loader section from any software update by the mcu. bit 76543210 r0 1 1 blb12 blb11 blb02 blb01 1 1 249 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 see table 95 and table 96 for how the different settings of the boot loader bits affect the flash access. if bits 5..2 in r0 are cleared (zero), the corresponding boot lock bit will be programmed if an spm instruction is executed within four cycles after blbset and spmen are set in spmcr. the z-pointer is don?t care during this operation, but for future compatibility it is recommended to load the z-pointer with $0001 (same as used for reading the lock bits). for future compatibility it is also recommended to set bits 7, 6, 1, and 0 in r0 to ?1? when writing the lock bits. when programming the lock bits the entire flash can be read during the operation. eeprom write prevents writing to spmcr note that an eeprom write operation will block all software programming to flash. reading the fuses and lock bits from software will also be prevented during the eeprom write operation. it is recommended that the user checks the status bit (eewe) in the eecr register and verifies that the bit is cleared before writing to the spmcr register. reading the fuse and lock bits from software it is possible to read both the fuse and lock bits from software. to read the lock bits, load the z-pointer with $0001 and set the blbset and spmen bits in spmcr. when an lpm instruction is executed within three cpu cycles after the blbset and spmen bits are set in spmcr, the value of the lock bits will be loaded in the destination regis- ter. the blbset and spmen bits will auto-clear upon completion of reading the lock bits or if no lpm instruction is executed within three cpu cycles or no spm instruction is executed within four cpu cycles. when blbset and spmen are cleared, lpm will work as described in the instruction set manual. the algorithm for reading the fuse low bits is similar to the one described above for reading the lock bits. to read the fuse low bits, load the z-pointer with $0000 and set the blbset and spmen bits in spmcr. when an lpm instruction is executed within three cycles after the blbset and spmen bits are set in the spmcr, the value of the fuse low bits (flb) will be loaded in the destination register as shown below. refer to table 105 on page 256 for a detailed description and mapping of the fuse low bits. similarly, when reading the fuse high bits, load $0003 in the z-pointer. when an lpm instruction is executed within three cycles after the blbset and spmen bits are set in the spmcr, the value of the fuse high bits (fhb) will be loaded in the destination reg- ister as shown below. refer to table 104 on page 255 for detailed description and mapping of the fuse high bits. fuse and lock bits that are programmed, will be read as zero. fuse and lock bits that are unprogrammed, will be read as one. preventing flash corruption during periods of low v cc, the flash program can be corrupted because the supply volt- age is too low for the cpu and the flash to operate properly. these issues are the same as for board level systems using the flash, and the same design solutions should be applied. a flash program corruption can be caused by two situations when the voltage is too low. first, a regular write sequence to the flash requires a minimum voltage to operate bit 76543210 rd ? ? blb12 blb11 blb02 blb01 lb2 lb1 bit 76543210 rd flb7 flb6 flb5 flb4 flb3 flb2 flb1 flb0 bit 76543210 rd fhb7 fhb6 fhb5 fhb4 fhb3 fhb2 fhb1 fhb0 250 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 correctly. secondly, the cpu itself can exec ute instructions incorrectly, if the supply voltage for executing instructions is too low. flash corruption can easily be avoided by following these design recommendations (one is sufficient): 1. if there is no need for a boot loader update in the system, program the boot loader lock bits to prevent any boot loader software updates. 2. keep the avr reset active (low) during periods of insufficient power supply voltage. this can be done by enabling the internal brown-out detector (bod) if the operating voltage matches the detection level. if not, an external low v cc reset protection circuit can be used. if a reset occurs while a write operation is in progress, the write operation will be completed provided that the power supply voltage is sufficient. 3. keep the avr core in power-down sleep mode during periods of low v cc . this will prevent the cpu from attempting to decode and execute instructions, effec- tively protecting the spmcr register and thus the flash from unintentional writes. programming time for flash when using spm the calibrated rc oscillator is used to time flash accesses. table 98 shows the typical programming time for flash accesses from the cpu. simple assembly code example for a boot loader ;-the routine writes one page of data from ram to flash ; the first data location in ram is pointed to by the y pointer ; the first data location in flash is pointed to by the z pointer ;-error handling is not included ;-the routine must be placed inside the boot space ; (at least the do_spm sub routine). only code inside nrww section can ; be read during self-programming (page erase and page write). ;-registers used: r0, r1, temp1 (r16), temp2 (r17), looplo (r24), ; loophi (r25), spmcrval (r20) ; storing and restoring of registers is not included in the routine ; register usage can be optimized at the expense of code size ;-it is assumed that either the interrupt table is moved to the boot ; loader section or that the interrupts are disabled. .equ pagesizeb = pagesize*2 ; pagesizeb is page size in bytes, not ; words .org smallbootstart write_page: ; page erase ldi spmcrval, (1< 253 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 see ?addressing the flash during self-programming?

and toggle xtal1 at least 6 times 3. set the prog_enable pins listed in table 107 on page 258 to ?0000? and wait at least 100 ns. 4. apply 11.5 - 12.5v to reset . any activity on prog_enable pins within 100 ns after +12v has been applied to reset , will cause the device to fail entering pro- gramming mode. note, if external crystal or external rc configuration is selected, it may not be possible to apply qualified xtal1 pulses. in such cases, the following algorithm should be followed: 1. set prog_enable pins listed in table 107 on page 258 to ?0000?. 2. apply 4.5 - 5.5v between v cc and gnd simultanously as 11.5 - 12.5v is applied to reset . 3. wait 100 s. 4. re-program the fuses to ensure that external clock is selected as clock source (cksel3:0 = 0b0000) if lock bits are programmed, a chip erase command must be executed before changing the fuses. 5. exit programming mode by power the device down or by bringing reset pin to 0b0. 6. entering programming mode with the original algorithm, as described above. considerations for efficient programming the loaded command and address are retained in the device during programming. for efficient programming, the following should be considered. the command needs only be loaded once when writing or reading multiple memory locations. skip writing the data value $ff, that is the contents of the entire eeprom (unless the eesave fuse is programmed) and flash after a chip erase. address high byte needs only be loaded before programming or reading a new 256 word window in flash or 256 byte eeprom. this consideration also applies to signature bytes reading. table 111. no. of words in a page and no. of pages in the eeprom eeprom size page size pcword no. of pages pcpage eeamsb 512 bytes 4 bytes eea[1:0] 128 eea[8:2] 8 260 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 chip erase the chip erase will erase the flash and eeprom (1) memories plus lock bits. the lock bits are not reset until the program memory has been completely erased. the fuse bits are not changed. a chip erase must be performed before the flash and/or the eeprom are reprogrammed. note: 1. the eeprpom memory is preserved during chip erase if the eesave fuse is programmed. load command ?chip erase?

(see table 114). accessing the spi serial programming interface before the flash write operation completes can result in incorrect programming. 5. the eeprom array is programmed one byte at a time by supplying the address and data together with the appropriate write instruction. an eeprom memory location is first automatically erased before new data is written. if polling is not used, the user must wait at least t wd_eeprom before issuing the next byte. (see table 114). in a chip erased device, no $ffs in the data file(s) need to be programmed. 6. any memory location can be verified by using the read instruction which returns the content at the selected address at serial output miso. 7. at the end of the programming session, reset can be set high to commence normal operation. 8. power-off sequence (if needed): set reset to ?1?. turn v cc power off. 270 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 data polling flash when a page is being programmed into the flash, reading an address location within the page being programmed will give the value $ff. at the time the device is ready for a new page, the programmed value will read correctly. this is used to determine when the next page can be written. note that the entire page is written simultaneously and any address within the page can be used for polling. data polling of the flash will not work for the value $ff, so when programming this value, the user will have to wait for at least t wd_flash before programming the next page. as a chip erased device contains $ff in all locations, programming of addresses that are meant to contain $ff, can be skipped. see table 114 for t wd_flash value data polling eeprom when a new byte has been written and is being programmed into eeprom, reading the address location being programmed will give the value $ff. at the time the device is ready for a new byte, the programmed value will read correctly. this is used to deter- mine when the next byte can be written. this will not work for the value $ff, but the user should have the following in mind: as a chip erased device contains $ff in all locations, programming of addresses that are meant to contain $ff, can be skipped. this does not apply if the eeprom is re-programmed without chip erasing the device. in this case, data polling cannot be used for the value $ff, and the user will have to wait at least t wd_eeprom before programming the next byte. see table 114 for t wd_eeprom value. figure

characteristics for characteristics of the spi module, see ?spi timing characteristics? on page 289. programming via the jtag interface programming through the jtag interface requires control of the four jtag specific pins: tck, tms, tdi and tdo. control of the reset and clock pins is not required. to be able to use the jtag interface, the jtagen fuse must be programmed. the device is default shipped with the fuse programmed. in addition, the jtd bit in mcucsr must be cleared. alternatively, if the jtd bit is set, the external reset can be forced low. then, the jtd bit will be cleared after two chip clocks, and the jtag pins are available for programming. this provides a means of using the jtag pins as normal port pins in running mode while still allowing in-system programming via the jtag interface. note that this technique can not be used when using the jtag pins for boundary-scan or on- chip debug. in these cases the jtag pins must be dedicated for this purpose. as a definition in this data sheet, the lsb is shifted in and out first of all shift registers. programming specific jtag instructions the instruction register is 4-bit wide, supporting up to 16 instructions. the jtag instruc- tions useful for programming are listed below. the opcode for each instruction is shown behind the instruction name in hex format. the text describes which data register is selected as path between tdi and tdo for each instruction. the run-test/idle state of the tap controller is used to generate internal clocks. it can also be used as an idle state between jtag sequences. the state machine sequence for changing the instruction word is shown in figure 138. 273 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 figure 138. state machine sequence for changing the instruction word avr_reset ($c) the avr specific public jtag instruction for setting the avr device in the reset mode or taking the device out from the reset mode. the tap controller is not reset by this instruction. the one bit reset register is selected as data register. note that the reset will be active as long as there is a logic ?o ne? in the reset chain. the output from this chain is not latched. the active states are: shift-dr: the reset register is shifted by the tck input. prog_enable ($4) the avr specific public jtag instruction for enabling programming via the jtag port. the 16-bit programming enable register is selected as data register. the active states are the following: shift-dr: the programming enable signature is shifted into the data register. update-dr: the programming enable signature is compared to the correct value, and programming mode is entered if the signature is valid. test-logic-reset run-test/idle shift-dr exit1-dr pause-dr exit2-dr update-dr select-ir scan capture-ir shift-ir exit1-ir pause-ir exit2-ir update-ir select-dr scan capture-dr 0 1 0 11 1 00 00 11 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 274 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 prog_commands ($5) the avr specific public jtag instruction for entering programming commands via the jtag port. the 15-bit programming command register is selected as data register. the active states are the following: capture-dr: the result of the previous command is loaded into the data register. shift-dr: the data register is shifted by the tck input, shifting out the result of the previous command and shifting in the new command. update-dr: the programming command is applied to the flash inputs run-test/idle: one clock cycle is generated, executing the applied command (not always required, see table 116 below). prog_pageload ($6) the avr specific public jtag instruction to directly load the flash data page via the jtag port. the 1024 bit virtual flash page load register is selected as data register. this is a virtual scan chain with length equal to the number of bits in one flash page. internally the shift register is 8-bit. unlike most jtag instructions, the update-dr state is not used to transfer data from the shift register. the data are automatically trans- ferred to the flash page buffer byte by byte in the shift-dr state by an internal state machine. this is the only active state: shift-dr: flash page data are shifted in from tdi by the tck input, and automatically loaded into the flash page one byte at a time. prog_pageread ($7) the avr specific public jtag instruction to read one full flash data page via the jtag port. the 1032 bit virtual flash page read register is selected as data register. this is a virtual scan chain with length equal to the number of bits in one flash page plus 8. internally the shift register is 8-bit. unlike most jtag instructions, the capture-dr state is not used to transfer data to the shift register. the data are automatically trans- ferred from the flash page buffer byte by byte in the shift-dr state by an internal state machine. this is the only active state: shift-dr: flash data are automatically read one byte at a time and shifted out on tdo by the tck input. the tdi input is ignored. note: the jtag instructions prog_pageload and prog_pageread can only be used if the avr devce is the first decive in jtag scan chain. if the avr cannot be the first device in the scan chain, the byte-wise programming algorithm must be used. data registers the data registers are selected by the jtag instruction registers described in section ?programming specific jtag instructions? on page 272. the data registers relevant for programming operations are: reset register programming enable register programming command register virtual flash page load register virtual flash page read register reset register the reset register is a test data register used to reset the part during programming. it is required to reset the part before entering programming mode. a high value in the reset register corresponds to pulling the external reset low. the part is reset as long as there is a high value present in the reset register. depending on the fuse settings for the clock options, the part will remain reset for a reset time-out period (refer to ?clock sources? on page 23) after releasing the reset register. the output from this data register is not latched, so the reset will take place immediately, as shown in figure 115 on page 224. 275 atmega16(l) 2466e?avr?10/02 programming enable register the programming enable register is a 16-bit register. the contents of this register is compared to the programming enable signature, binary code 1010_0011_0111_0000. when the contents of the register is equal to the programming enable signature, pro- gramming via the jtag port is enabled. the register is reset to 0 on power-on reset, and should always be reset when leaving programming mode. figure 139. programming enable register programming command register the programming command register is a 15-bit register. this register is used to seri- ally shift in programming commands, and to serially shift out the result of the previous command, if any. the jtag programming instruction set is shown in table 116. the state sequence when shifting in the programming commands is illustrated in figure

connected to the two-wire serial bus need only obey the general f scl requirement. 6. the actual low period generated by the atmega16 two-wire serial interface is (1/f scl - 2/f ck ), thus f ck must be greater than 6 mhz for the low time requirement to be strictly met at f scl = 100 khz. 7. the actual low period generated by the atmega16 two-wire serial interface is (1/f scl - 2/f ck ), thus the low time requirement will not be strictly met for f scl > 308 khz when f ck = 8 mhz. still, atmega16 devices connected to the bus may communicate at full speed (400 khz) with other atmega16 devices, as well as any other device with a proper t low acceptance margin. figure 145. two-wire serial bus timing spi timing characteristics see figure 146 and figure 147 for details. t su;sta t low t high t

measurements are performed with all i/o pins configured as inputs and with internal pull-ups enabled. a sine wave generator with rail- to-rail output is used as clock source. the power consumption in power-down mode is independent of clock selection. the current consumption is a function of several factors such as: operating voltage, operating frequency, loading of i/o pins, switching rate of i/o pins, code executed and ambient temperature. the dominating factors are operating voltage and frequency. the current drawn from capacitive loaded pins may be estimated (for one pin) as c l * v cc *f where c l = load capacitance, v cc = operating voltage and f = average switch- ing frequency of i/o pin. the parts are characterized at frequencies higher than test limits. parts are not guaran- teed to function properly at frequencies higher than the ordering code indicates. the difference between current consumption in power-down mode with watchdog timer enabled and power-down mode with watchdog

accessed on this address. refer to the debug- ger specific documentation for details on how to use the ocdr register. 2. refer to the usart description for details on how to access ubrrh and ucsrc. 3. for compatibility with future devices, reserved bits should be written to zero if accessed. reserved i/o memory addresses should never be written. 4. some of the status flags are cleared by writing a logical one to them. note that the cbi and sbi instructions will operate on all bits in the i/o register, writing a one back into any flag read as set, thus clearing the flag. the cbi and sbi instruction s work with registers $00 to $1f only. $01 ($21) twsr tws7 tws6 tws5 tws4 tws3 ? twps1 twps0 175 $00 ($20) twbr two-wire serial interface bit rate register 174 address name bit 7 bit 6 bit
