Symbol
R/W
R
Description
Read/Write accessible register bit. The user can read from and write to this bit.
Read-only accessible register bit. The user can only read this bit. Writes will be ignored.
W
Write-only accessible register bit. The user can only write this bit. Reading this bit will return an
undefined value.
BITFIELD
Bitfield names are shown in uppercase. Example: INTMODE.
BITFIELD[n:m]
Reserved
A set of bits from bit n down to m. Example: PINA[3:0] = {PINA3, PINA2, PINA1, PINA0}.
Reserved bits, bit fields, and bit field values are unused and reserved for future use. For
compatibility with future devices, always write reserved bits to ‘0’ when the register is written.
Reserved bits will always return zero when read.
PERIPHERALn If several instances of the peripheral exist, the peripheral name is followed by a single number to
identify one instance. Example: USARTn is the collection of all instances of the USART module,
while USART3 is one specific instance of the USART module.
PERIPHERALx
If several instances of the peripheral exist, the peripheral name is followed by a single capital
letter (A-Z) to identify one instance. Example: PORTx is the collection of all instances of the
PORT module, while PORTB is one specific instance of the PORT module.
Reset
Value of a register after a Power-on Reset. This is also the value of registers in a peripheral after
performing a software Reset of the peripheral, except for the Debug Control registers.
SET/CLR/TGL
Registers with SET/CLR/TGL suffix allow the user to clear and set bits in a register without doing
a read-modify-write operation.
Each SET/CLR/TGL register is paired with the register it is affecting. Both registers in a register
pair return the same value when read.
Example: In the PORT peripheral, the OUT and OUTSET registers form such a register pair. The
contents of OUT will be modified by a write to OUTSET. Reading OUT and OUTSET will return
the same value.
Writing a ‘1’ to a bit in the CLR register will clear the corresponding bit in both registers.
Writing a ‘1’ to a bit in the SET register will set the corresponding bit in both registers.
Writing a ‘1’ to a bit in the TGL register will toggle the corresponding bit in both registers.
5.4.1
Addressing Registers from Header Files
In order to address registers in the supplied C header files, the following rules apply:
1. A register is identified by <peripheral_instance_name>.<register_name>, e.g., CPU.SREG, USART2.CTRLA,
or PORTB.DIR.
2. The peripheral name is given in the “Peripheral Address Map” in the “Peripherals and Architecture” section.
3. <peripheral_instance_name> is obtained by substituting any n or x in the peripheral name with the correct
instance identifier.
4. When assigning a predefined value to a peripheral register, the value is constructed following the rule:
<peripheral_name>_<bit_field_name>_<bit_field_value>_gc
<peripheral_name> is <peripheral_instance_name>, but remove any instance identifier.
<bit_field_value> can be found in the “Name” column in the tables in the Register Description sections
describing the bit fields of the peripheral registers.

// USART0 RXMODE uses Double Transmission Speed
USART0.CTRLB = USART_RXMODE_CLK2X_gc;
Note:ꢀ For peripherals with different register sets in different modes, <peripheral_instance_name> and
<peripheral_name> must be followed by a mode name, for example:
// TCA0 in Normal Mode (SINGLE) uses waveform generator in frequency mode
TCA0.SINGLE.CTRL=TCA_SINGLE_WGMODE_FRQ_gc;

ADC Parameter Definitions
An ideal n-bit single-ended ADC converts a voltage linearly between GND and VREF in 2n steps (LSb). The lowest
code is read as ‘0’, and the highest code is read as ‘2n-1’. Several parameters describe the deviation from the ideal
behavior:
Offset Error
The deviation of the first transition (0x000 to 0x001) compared to the ideal transition (at 0.5
LSb). Ideal value: 0 LSb.

Gain Error
After adjusting for offset, the gain error is found as the deviation of the last transition (e.g.,
0x3FE to 0x3FF for a 10-bit ADC) compared to the ideal transition (at 1.5 LSb below
maximum). Ideal value: 0 LSb.

Overview
All AVR devices use the AVR 8-bit CPU. The CPU is able to access memories, perform calculations, control
peripherals, and execute instructions in the program memory. Interrupt handling is described in a separate section.
Architecture
To maximize performance and parallelism, the AVR CPU uses a Harvard architecture with separate buses for
program and data. The instructions in the program memory are executed with a single-level pipeline. While one
instruction is being executed, the next instruction is prefetched from the program memory. This enables instructions
to be executed on every clock cycle.
Refer to the Instruction Set Summary section for a summary of all AVR instructions.

Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU)
The Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) supports arithmetic and logic operations between working registers, or between a
constant and a working register. Also, single-register operations can be executed.
The ALU operates in a direct connection with all the 32 general purpose working registers in the register file.
The arithmetic operations between working registers or between a working register and an immediate operand are
executed in a single clock cycle, and the result is stored in the register file. After an arithmetic or logic operation, the
Status Register (CPU.SREG) is updated to reflect information about the result of the operation.
ALU operations are divided into three main categories – arithmetic, logical, and bit functions. Both 8- and 16-bit
arithmetic are supported, and the instruction set allows for an efficient implementation of the 32-bit arithmetic. The
hardware multiplier supports signed and unsigned multiplication and fractional formats.
6.4.1
Hardware Multiplier
The multiplier is capable of multiplying two 8-bit numbers into a 16-bit result. The hardware multiplier supports
different variations of signed and unsigned integer and fractional numbers:
•
•
•
•
Multiplication of signed/unsigned integers
Multiplication of signed/unsigned fractional numbers
Multiplication of a signed integer with an unsigned integer
Multiplication of a signed fractional number with an unsigned fractional number
A multiplication takes two CPU clock cycles.

After being reset, the CPU will execute instructions from the lowest address in the Flash program memory, 0x0000.
The Program Counter (PC) addresses the next instruction to be fetched.
The CPU supports instructions that can change the program flow conditionally or unconditionally and are capable of
addressing the whole address space directly. Most AVR instructions use a 16-bit word format, and a limited number
use a 32-bit format.
During interrupts and subroutine calls, the return address PC is stored on the stack as a word pointer. The stack is
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. After the Stack Pointer (SP) is reset, it points to the highest address in the internal SRAM. The
SP is read/write accessible in the I/O memory space, enabling easy implementation of multiple stacks or stack areas.
The data SRAM can easily be accessed through the five different Addressing modes supported by the AVR CPU.
6.5.2
Instruction Execution Timing
The AVR CPU is clocked by the CPU clock, CLK_CPU. No internal clock division is applied. The figure below shows
the parallel instruction fetches and executions enabled by the Harvard architecture and the fast-access register file
concept. This is the basic pipelining concept enabling up to 1 MIPS/MHz performance with high efficiency.

6.5.3
Status Register
The Status Register (CPU.SREG) contains information about the result of the most recently executed arithmetic or
logic instructions. This information can be used for altering the program flow to perform conditional operations.
CPU.SREG is updated after all ALU operations, as specified in the Instruction Set Summary section. This will, in
many cases, remove the need for using the dedicated compare instructions, resulting in a faster and more compact
code. CPU.SREG is not automatically stored or restored when entering or returning from an Interrupt Service
Routine (ISR). Therefore, maintaining the Status Register between context switches must be handled by user-defined
software. CPU.SREG is accessible in the I/O memory space.
6.5.4
Stack and Stack Pointer
The stack is used for storing return addresses after interrupts and subroutine calls. Also, it can be used for storing
temporary data. The Stack Pointer (SP) always points to the top of the stack. The address pointed to by the SP is
stored in the Stack Pointer (CPU.SP) register. The CPU.SP is implemented as two 8-bit registers that are accessible
in the I/O memory space.
Data are pushed and popped from the stack using the instructions given in Table 6-1, or by executing interrupts.
The stack grows from higher to lower memory locations. This means that when pushing data onto the stack, the
SP decreases, and when popping data off the stack, the SP increases. The SP is automatically set to the highest
address of the internal SRAM after being reset. If the stack is changed, it must be set to point above the SRAM
start address (see the SRAM Data Memory topic in the Memories section for the SRAM start address), and it must
be defined before any subroutine calls are executed and before interrupts are enabled. See the table below for SP
details.

RETI
A return address is popped from the stack with a return from subroutine or return
Incremented by 2
from interrupt
During interrupts or subroutine calls, the return address is automatically pushed on the stack as a word, and the SP is
decremented by two. The return address consists of two bytes and the Least Significant Byte (LSB) is pushed on the
stack first (at the higher address). As an example, a byte pointer return address of 0x0006 is saved on the stack as
0x0003 (shifted one bit to the right), pointing to the fourth 16-bit instruction word in the program memory. The return
address is popped off the stack with RETI(when returning from interrupts) and RET(when returning from subroutine
calls), and the SP is incremented by two.
The SP is decremented by one when data are pushed on the stack with the PUSHinstruction, and incremented by
one when data are popped off the stack using the POPinstruction.

To prevent corruption when updating the SP from software, a write to SPL will automatically disable interrupts for up
to four instructions or until the next I/O memory write, whichever comes first.
6.5.5
Register File
The register file consists of 32 8-bit general purpose working registers used by the CPU. The register file is located in
a separate address space from the data memory.
All CPU instructions that operate on working registers have direct and single-cycle access to the register file. Some
limitations apply to which working registers can be accessed by an instruction, like the constant arithmetic and logic
instructions SBCI, SUBI, CPI, ANDI, ORIand LDI. These instructions apply to the second half of the working
registers in the register file, R16 to R31. See the AVR Instruction Set Manual for further details.

Accessing 16-Bit Registers
Most of the registers for the ATmega3208/3209 devices are 8-bit registers, but the devices also feature a few 16-bit
registers. As the AVR data bus has a width of eight bits, accessing the 16-bit requires two read or write operations.
All the 16-bit registers of the ATmega3208/3209 devices are connected to the 8-bit bus through a temporary (TEMP)
register.

Write High Byte
Write Low Byte
For a 16-bit write operation, the low byte register (e.g., DATAL) of the 16-bit register must be written before the high
byte register (e.g., DATAH). Writing the low byte register will result in a write to the temporary (TEMP) register instead
of the low byte register, as shown in the left side of the figure above. When the high byte register of the 16-bit register
is written, TEMP will be copied into the low byte of the 16-bit register in the same clock cycle, as shown on the right
side of the same figure.

Read High Byte
Read Low Byte
For a 16-bit read operation, the low byte register (e.g., DATAL) of the 16-bit register must be read before the high
byte register (e.g., DATAH). When the low byte register is read, the high byte register of the 16-bit register is copied
into the temporary (TEMP) register in the same clock cycle, as shown on the left side of the figure above. Reading
the high byte register will result in a read from TEMP instead of the high byte register, as shown on the right side of
the same figure.
The described mechanism ensures that the low and high bytes of 16-bit registers are always accessed
simultaneously when reading or writing the registers.
Interrupts can corrupt the timed sequence if an interrupt is triggered during a 16-bit read/write operation, and a 16-bit
register within the same peripheral is accessed in the interrupt service routine. To prevent this, interrupts should
be disabled when writing or reading 16-bit registers. Alternatively, the temporary register can be read before and
restored after the 16-bit access in the interrupt service routine.
6.5.7
Configuration Change Protection (CCP)
System critical I/O register settings are protected from accidental modification. Flash self-programming (via store
to NVM controller) is protected from accidental execution. This is handled globally by the Configuration Change
Protection (CCP) register.
Changes to the protected I/O registers or bits, or execution of protected instructions, are only possible after the
CPU writes a signature to the CCP register. The different signatures are listed in the description of the CCP register
(CPU.CCP).
There are two modes of operation: One for protected I/O registers, and one for protected self-programming.
6.5.7.1 Sequence for Write Operation to Configuration Change Protected I/O Registers
In order to write to registers protected by CCP, these steps are required:
1. The software writes the signature that enables change of protected I/O registers to the CCP bit field in the
CPU.CCP register.
2. Within four instructions, the software must write the appropriate data to the protected register.
Most protected registers also contain a Write Enable/Change Enable/Lock bit. This bit must be written to ‘1’ in
the same operation as the data are written.
DS40002174C-page 31
Complete Datasheet
© 2021 Microchip Technology Inc.
ATmega3208/3209
®
AVR CPU
The protected change is immediately disabled if the CPU performs write operations to the I/O register or data
memory, if load or store accesses to Flash, NVMCTRL, or EEPROM are conducted, or if the SLEEPinstruction
is executed.
6.5.7.2 Sequence for Execution of Self-Programming
In order to execute self-programming (the execution of writes to the NVM controller’s command register), the
following steps are required:
1. The software temporarily enables self-programming by writing the SPM signature to the CCP register
(CPU.CCP).
2. Within four instructions, the software must execute the appropriate instruction. The protected change is
immediately disabled if the CPU performs accesses to the Flash, NVMCTRL, or EEPROM, or if the SLEEP
instruction is executed.
Once the correct signature is written by the CPU, interrupts will be ignored for the duration of the configuration
change enable period. Any interrupt request (including non-maskable interrupts) during the CCP period will set the
corresponding Interrupt flag as normal, and the request is kept pending. After the CCP period is completed, any
pending interrupts are executed according to their level and priority.
6.5.8
On-Chip Debug Capabilities
The AVR CPU includes native On-Chip Debug (OCD) support. It includes some powerful debug capabilities to
enable profiling and detailed information about the CPU state. It is possible to alter the CPU state and resume code
execution. Also, normal debug capabilities like hardware Program Counter breakpoints, breakpoints on change of
flow instructions, breakpoints on interrupts, and software breakpoints (BREAKinstruction) are present. Refer to the
Unified Program and Debug Interface section for details about OCD.

Writing the correct signature to this bit field allows changing protected I/O registers or executing protected
instructions within the next four CPU instructions executed.
All interrupts are ignored during these cycles. After these cycles are completed, the interrupts will automatically be
handled again by the CPU, and any pending interrupts will be executed according to their level and priority.
When the protected I/O register signature is written, CCP[0] will read as ‘1’ as long as the CCP feature is enabled.
When the protected self-programming signature is written, CCP[1] will read as ‘1’ as long as the CCP feature is
enabled.

The CPU.SP register holds the Stack Pointer (SP) that points to the top of the stack. After being reset, the SP points
to the highest internal SRAM address.
Only the number of bits required to address the available data memory, including external memory (up to 64 KB), is
implemented for each device. Unused bits will always read as ‘0’.
The CPU.SPL and CPU.SPH register pair represents the 16-bit value, CPU.SP. The low byte [7:0] (suffix L) is
accessible at the original offset. The high byte [15:8] (suffix H) can be accessed at offset + 0x01.
To prevent corruption when updating the SP from software, a write to CPU.SPL will automatically disable interrupts
for the next four instructions or until the next I/O memory write, whichever comes first.

In-System Reprogrammable Flash Program Memory
The ATmega3208/3209 contains 32 KB On-Chip In-System Reprogrammable Flash memory for program storage.
Since all AVR instructions are 16 or 32 bits wide, the Flash is organized with a 16-bit data width. For write protection,
the Flash program memory space can be divided into three sections: Bootloader section, application code section,
and application data section. Code placed in one section may be restricted from writing to addresses in other
sections. See the NVMCTRL documentation for more details.
The Program Counter can address the whole program memory. The procedure for writing Flash memory is described
in detail in the documentation of the Nonvolatile Memory Controller (NVMCTRL) peripheral.

Fuses (FUSE)
Fuses hold the device configuration and are a part of the nonvolatile memory. The fuses are available from device
power-up. The fuses can be read by the CPU or the UPDI but can only be programmed or cleared by the UPDI.
The configuration values stored in the fuses are copied to their respective target registers at the end of the start-up
sequence.
The fuses are preprogrammed but can be altered by the user. Altered fuse values will be effective only after a Reset.
Note:ꢀ All reserved bits must be written to ‘1’ when writing the fuses.

Memory Section Access from CPU and UPDI on Locked Device
The device can be locked so that the memories cannot be read using the UPDI. The locking protects both the Flash
(all BOOT, APPCODE, and APPDATA sections), SRAM, and the EEPROM including the FUSE data. This prevents
successful reading of application data or code using the debugger interface. Regular memory access from within the
application still is enabled.
The device is locked by writing any invalid key to the LOCKBIT bit field in FUSE.LOCKBIT.

Notes:ꢀ
1. Read operations marked No in the tables may appear to be successful, but the data is corrupt. Hence, any
attempt of code validation through the UPDI will fail on these memory sections.
2. In Locked mode, the USERROW can be written blindly using the Fuse Write command, but the current
USERROW values cannot be read out.
Important:ꢀ The only way to unlock a device is a CHIPERASE, which will erase all device memories to
factory default so that no application data is retained.
7.10
I/O Memory
All ATmega3208/3209 I/Os and peripherals are located in the I/O space. The I/O address range from 0x00 to 0x3F
can be accessed in a single cycle using INand OUTinstructions. The extended I/O space from 0x0040 - 0x0FFF can
be accessed by the LD/LDS/LDDand ST/STS/STDinstructions, transferring data between the 32 general purpose
working registers and the I/O space.
I/O registers within the address range 0x00 - 0x1F are directly bit-accessible using the SBIand CBIinstructions.
In these registers, the value of single bits can be checked by using the SBISand SBICinstructions. Refer to the
Instruction Set section for more details.
For compatibility with future devices, reserved bits should be written to ‘0’if accessed. Reserved I/O memory
addresses should never be written.
Some of the interrupt flags are cleared by writing a ‘1’to them. On ATmega3208/3209 devices, the CBIand SBI
instructions will only operate on the specified bit, and can, therefore, be used on registers containing such interrupt
flags. The CBIand SBIinstructions work with registers 0x00 - 0x1F only.
General Purpose I/O Registers
The ATmega3208/3209 devices provide four General Purpose I/O Registers. These registers can be used for storing
any information, and they are particularly useful for storing global variables and interrupt flags. General Purpose I/O
Registers, which reside in the address range 0x1C - 0x1F, are directly bit-accessible using the SBI, CBI, SBIS, and
SBICinstructions.

Interrupt Vector Mapping
Each of the interrupt vectors is connected to one peripheral instance, as shown in the table below. A peripheral
can have one or more interrupt sources. See the ‘Interrupts’ section in the ‘Functional Description’ of the respective
peripheral for more details on the available interrupt sources.
When the interrupt condition occurs, an Interrupt Flag is set in the Interrupt Flags register of the peripheral
(peripheral.INTFLAGS).
An interrupt is enabled or disabled by writing to the corresponding Interrupt Enable bit in the peripheral's Interrupt
Control (peripheral.INTCTRL) register.
An interrupt request is generated when the corresponding interrupt is enabled, and the Interrupt Flag is set. The
interrupt request remains active until the Interrupt Flag is cleared. See the peripheral's INTFLAGS register for details
on how to clear Interrupt Flags.
Note:ꢀ Interrupts must be enabled globally for interrupt requests to be generated.

Overview
The NVM Controller (NVMCTRL) is the interface between the CPU and Nonvolatile Memories (Flash, EEPROM,
Signature Row, User Row, and fuses). These are reprogrammable memory blocks that retain their values when they
are not powered. The Flash is mainly used for program storage and can also be used for data storage, while the
EEPROM, Signature Row, User Row, and fuses are used for data storage.

Memory Organization
9.3.1.1 Flash
The Flash is divided into a set of pages. A page is the basic unit addressed when programming the Flash. It is only
possible to write or erase a whole page at a time. One page consists of several words.
The Flash can be divided into three sections in blocks of 256 bytes for different security. The three different sections
are BOOT, Application Code (APPCODE), and Application Data (APPDATA).

Section Sizes
The sizes of these sections are set by the Boot Section End (FUSE.BOOTEND) fuse and the Application Code
Section End (FUSE.APPEND) fuse.
The fuses select the section sizes in blocks of 256 bytes. The BOOT section stretches from the start of the Flash until
BOOTEND. The APPCODE section runs from BOOTEND until APPEND, and the remaining area is the APPDATA
section.

If BOOTEND is written to ‘0’, the entire Flash is regarded as the BOOT section. If APPEND is written to ‘0’ and
BOOTEND > 0, the APPCODE section runs from BOOTEND to the end of Flash (no APPDATA section). When
APPEND ≤BOOTEND, the APPCODE section is removed, and the APPDATA runs from BOOTEND to the end of
Flash. When APPEND >BOOTEND, the APPCODE section spreads from BOOTEND until APPEND. The remaining
area is the APPDATA section.
If there is no boot loader software, it is recommended to use the BOOT section for Application Code.

NVMCTRL - Nonvolatile Memory Controller
Notes:ꢀ
1. After Reset, the default vector table location is at the start of the APPCODE section. The peripheral interrupts
can be used in the code running in the BOOT section by relocating the interrupt vector table at the beginning
of this section. That is done by setting the IVSEL bit in the CPUINT.CTRLA register. Refer to the CPUINT
section for details.
2. If BOOTEND/APPEND, as resulted from BOOTEND and APPEND fuse setting, exceed the device
FLASHEND, the corresponding fuse setting is ignored, and the default value is used. Refer to “Fuse” in
the Memories section for default values.
Example 9-1.ꢀSize of Flash Sections
If FUSE.BOOTEND is written to 0x04and FUSE.APPEND is written to 0x08, the first 4*256 bytes
will be BOOT, the next 4*256 bytes will be APPCODE, and the remaining Flash will be APPDATA.
Inter-Section Write Protection
Between the three Flash sections, directional write protection is implemented:
•
•
•
The code in the BOOT section can write to APPCODE and APPDATA
The code in APPCODE can write to APPDATA
The code in APPDATA cannot write to Flash or EEPROM
Boot Section Lock and Application Code Section Write Protection
Additional to the inter-section write protection, the NVMCTRL provides a security mechanism to avoid unwanted
access to the Flash memory sections. Even if the CPU can never write to the BOOT section, a Boot Section Lock
(BOOTLOCK) bit in the Control B (NVMCTRL.CTRLB) register is provided to prevent the read and execution of code
from the BOOT section. This bit can be set only from the code executed in the BOOT section and has effect only
when leaving the BOOT section.
The Application Code Section Write Protection (APCWP) bit in the Control B (NVMCTRL.CTRLB) register can be set
to prevent further updates of the APPCODE section.
9.3.1.2 EEPROM
The EEPROM is divided into a set of pages where one page consists of multiple bytes. The EEPROM has byte
granularity on the erase/write. Within one page, only the bytes marked to be updated will be erased/written. The byte
is marked by writing a new value to the page buffer for that address location.
9.3.1.3 User Row
The User Row is one extra page of EEPROM. This page can be used to store various data, such as calibration/
configuration data and serial numbers. This page is not erased by a chip erase. The User Row is written as normal
EEPROM, but also, it can be written through UPDI on a locked device.
9.3.2
Memory Access
9.3.2.1 Read
Reading of the Flash and EEPROM is done by using load instructions with an address according to the memory map.
Reading any of the arrays while a write or erase is in progress will result in a bus wait, and the instruction will be
suspended until the ongoing operation is complete.
9.3.2.2 Page Buffer Load
The page buffer is loaded by writing directly to the memories as defined in the memory map. The Flash, EEPROM,
and User Row share the same page buffer, so only one section can be programmed at a time. The Least Significant
bits (LSb) of the address are used to select where in the page buffer data are written. The resulting data will be a
binary ANDoperation between the new and the previous content of the page buffer. The page buffer will automatically
be erased (all bits set) after:

•
A device wake-up from any sleep mode
9.3.2.3 Programming
For page programming, filling the page buffer and writing the page buffer into Flash, User Row, and EEPROM are
two separate operations.
Before programming a Flash page with the data in the page buffer, the Flash page must be erased. The page buffer
is also erased when the device enters a sleep mode. Programming an unerased Flash page will corrupt its content.
The Flash can either be written with the erase and write separately, or one command handling both:
Alternative 1:
1. Fill the page buffer.
2. Write the page buffer to Flash with the Erase and Write Page (ERWP) command.
Alternative 2:
1. Write to a location on the page to set up the address.
2. Perform an Erase Page (ER) command.
3. Fill the page buffer.
4. Perform a Write Page (WP) command.
The NVM command set supports both a single erase and write operation, and split Erase Page (ER) and Write
Page (WP) commands. This split commands enable shorter programming time for each command, and the erase
operations can be done during non-time-critical programming execution.
The EEPROM programming is similar, but only the bytes updated in the page buffer will be written or erased in the
EEPROM.
9.3.2.4 Commands
Reading the Flash/EEPROM and writing the page buffer is handled with normal load/store instructions. Other
operations, such as writing and erasing the memory arrays, are handled by commands in the NVM.
To execute a command in the NVM:
1. Confirm that any previous operation is completed by reading the Busy (EEBUSY and FBUSY) Flags in the
NVMCTRL.STATUS register.
2. Write the appropriate key to the Configuration Change Protection (CPU.CCP) register to unlock the NVM
Control A (NVMCTRL.CTRLA) register.
3. Write the desired command value to the CMD bit field in the Control A (NVMCTRL.CTRLA) register within the
next four instructions.
9.3.2.4.1 Write Page Command
The Write Page (WP) command of the Flash controller writes the content of the page buffer to the Flash or EEPROM.
If the write is to the Flash, the CPU will stop executing code as long as the Flash is busy with the write operation. If
the write is to the EEPROM, the CPU can continue to execute code while the operation is ongoing.
The page buffer will automatically be cleared after the operation is finished.
9.3.2.4.2 Erase Page Command
The Erase Page (ER) command erases the current page. There must be one byte written in the page buffer for the
Erase Page (ER) command to take effect.
For erasing the Flash, first, write to one address on the desired page, then execute the command. The whole page in
the Flash will then be erased. The CPU will be halted while the erase is ongoing.
For the EEPROM, only the bytes written in the page buffer will be erased when the command is executed. To erase a
specific byte, write to its corresponding address before executing the command. To erase a whole page, all the bytes
in the page buffer have to be updated before executing the command. The CPU can continue running code while the
operation is ongoing.
The page buffer will automatically be cleared after the operation is finished.

NVMCTRL - Nonvolatile Memory Controller
9.3.2.4.3 Erase/Write Page Command
The Erase and Write Page (ERWP) command is a combination of the Erase Page and Write Page commands, but
without clearing the page buffer after the Erase Page command: The erase/write operation first erases the selected
page, then it writes the content of the page buffer to the same page.
When executed on the Flash, the CPU will be halted when the operations are ongoing. When executed on EEPROM,
the CPU can continue to execute code.
The page buffer will automatically be cleared after the operation is finished.
9.3.2.4.4 Page Buffer Clear Command
The Page Buffer Clear (PBC) command clears the page buffer. The contents of the page buffer will be all ‘1’s after
the operation. The CPU will be halted when the operation executes (seven CPU cycles).
9.3.2.4.5 Chip Erase Command
The Chip Erase (CHER) command erases the Flash and the EEPROM. The EEPROM is unaltered if the EEPROM
Save During Chip Erase (EESAVE) fuse in FUSE.SYSCFG0 is set. The Flash will not be protected by Boot Section
Lock (BOOTLOCK) bit or Application Code Section Write Protection (APCWP) bit in NVMCTRL.CTRLB register. The
memory will be all ‘1’s after the operation.
9.3.2.4.6 EEPROM Erase Command
The EEPROM Erase (EEER) command erases the EEPROM. The EEPROM will be all ‘1’s after the operation. The
CPU will be halted while the EEPROM is being erased.
9.3.2.4.7 Write Fuse Command
The Write Fuse (WFU) command writes the fuses. It can only be used by the UPDI; the CPU cannot start this
command.
Follow this procedure to use the Write Fuse command:
1. Write the address of the fuse to the Address (NVMCTRL.ADDR) register.
2. Write the data to be written to the fuse to the Data (NVMCTRL.DATA) register.
3. Execute the Write Fuse command.
4. After the fuse is written, a Reset is required for the updated value to take effect.
For reading fuses, use a regular read on the memory location.
9.3.2.5 Write Access after Reset
After a Power-on Reset (POR), the NVMCTRL rejects any write attempts to the NVM for a given time. During this
period, the Flash Busy (FBUSY) and the EEPROM Busy (EEBUSY) bit field in the NVMCTRL.STATUS register will
read ‘1’. EEBUSY and FBUSY bit field must read ‘0’ before the page buffer can be filled, or NVM commands can be
issued.
This time-out period is disabled either by writing the Time-Out Disable (TOUTDIS) bit in the System Configuration 0
(FUSE.SYSCFG0) fuse to ‘0’ or by configuring the RSTPINCFG bit field in FUSE.SYSCFG0 fuse to UPDI.
9.3.3
Preventing Flash/EEPROM Corruption
During periods of low VDD, the Flash program or EEPROM data can be corrupted if the supply voltage is too low
for the CPU and the Flash/EEPROM to operate properly. These issues are the same on-board level systems using
Flash/EEPROM, and the same design solutions may be applied.
A Flash/EEPROM corruption can be caused by two situations when the voltage is too low:
1. A regular write sequence to the Flash, which requires a minimum voltage to operate correctly.
2. The CPU itself can execute instructions incorrectly when the supply voltage is too low.
See the Electrical Characteristics section for Maximum Frequency vs. VDD
.

NVMCTRL - Nonvolatile Memory Controller
Attention:ꢀ Flash/EEPROM corruption can be avoided by taking these measures:
1. Keep the device in Reset during periods of any insufficient power supply voltage. Do this by
enabling the internal Brown-out Detector (BOD).
2. The voltage level monitor in the BOD can be used to prevent starting a write to the EEPROM close
to the BOD level.
3. If the detection levels of the internal BOD do not match the required detection level, an external low
VDD Reset protection circuit can be used. If a Reset occurs while a write operation is ongoing, the
write operation will be aborted.

Vector Description
Conditions
EEREADY
NVM
The EEPROM is ready for new write/erase operations.
When an interrupt condition occurs, the corresponding interrupt flag is set in the Interrupt Flags
(NVMCTRL.INTFLAGS) register.
An interrupt source is enabled or disabled by writing to the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Control
(NVMCTRL.INTCTRL) register.
An interrupt request is generated when the corresponding interrupt source is enabled, and the interrupt flag is set.
The interrupt request remains active until the interrupt flag is cleared. See the NVMCTRL.INTFLAGS register for
details on how to clear interrupt flags.
9.3.5
Sleep Mode Operation
If there is no ongoing write operation, the NVMCTRL will enter a sleep mode when the system enters a sleep mode.
If a write operation is ongoing when the system enters a sleep mode, the NVM block, the NVM Controller, and the
system clock will remain ON until the write is finished. This is valid for all sleep modes, including Power-Down sleep
mode.
The EEPROM Ready interrupt will wake up the device only from Idle sleep mode.
The page buffer is cleared when waking up from sleep.
9.3.6
Configuration Change Protection
This peripheral has registers that are under Configuration Change Protection (CCP). To write to these registers, a
certain key must first be written to the CPU.CCP register, followed by a write access to the protected bits within four
CPU instructions.
Attempting to write to a protected register without following the appropriate CCP unlock sequence leaves the
protected register unchanged.
The following registers are under CCP:

10.2
Overview
The Clock Controller (CLKCTRL) controls, distributes and prescales the clock signals from the available oscillators,
and supports internal and external clock sources.
The CLKCTRL is based on an automatic clock request system, implemented in all peripherals on the device. The
peripherals will automatically request the clocks needed. The request is routed to the correct clock source if multiple
clock sources are available.
The Main Clock (CLK_MAIN) is used by the CPU, RAM, and all peripherals connected to the I/O bus. The main clock
source can be selected and prescaled. Some peripherals can share the same clock source as the main clock or run
asynchronously to the main clock domain.

The clock system consists of the main clock and other asynchronous clocks:
•
Main Clock
This clock is used by the CPU, RAM, Flash, the I/O bus, and all peripherals connected to the I/O bus. It is
always running in Active and Idle sleep mode and can be running in Standby sleep mode if requested.
The main clock CLK_MAIN is prescaled and distributed by the clock controller:
•
•
CLK_CPU is used by the CPU, SRAM, and the NVMCTRL peripheral to access the nonvolatile memory
CLK_PER is used by all peripherals that are not listed under asynchronous clocks
•
Clocks running asynchronously to the main clock domain:
– CLK_RTC is used by the RTC/PIT. It will be requested when the RTC/PIT is enabled. The clock source for
CLK_RTC may only be changed if the peripheral is disabled.
– CLK_WDT is used by the WDT. It will be requested when the WDT is enabled.
– CLK_BOD is used by the BOD. It will be requested when the BOD is enabled in Sampled mode.

CLKCTRL - Clock Controller
The clock source for the for the main clock domain is configured by writing to the Clock Select (CLKSEL) bits in

registers in the respective peripheral.

Functional Description
10.3.1 Sleep Mode Operation
When a clock source is not used or requested, it will stop. It is possible to request a clock source directly by writing a
‘1’ to the Run Standby (RUNSTDBY) bit in the respective oscillator’s Control A (CLKCTRL.[osc]CTRLA) register. This
will cause the oscillator to run constantly, except for Power-Down sleep mode. Additionally, when this bit is written to
‘1’, the oscillator start-up time is eliminated when the clock source is requested by a peripheral.
The main clock will always run in Active and Idle sleep modes. In Standby sleep mode, the main clock will run only
if any peripheral is requesting it, or the Run in Standby (RUNSTDBY) bit in the respective oscillator’s Control A
(CLKCTRL.[osc]CTRLA) register is written to ‘1’.
In Power-Down sleep mode, the main clock will stop after all NVM operations are completed. Refer to the Sleep
Controller section for more details on sleep mode operation.
10.3.2 Main Clock Selection and Prescaler
All internal oscillators can be used as the main clock source for CLK_MAIN. The main clock source is selectable from
software and can be safely changed during normal operation.
Built-in hardware protection prevents unsafe clock switching:
Upon selection of an external clock source, a switch to the chosen clock source will only occur if edges are detected.
Until a sufficient number of clock edges are detected the switch will not occur, and it will not be possible to change to
another clock source again without executing a Reset.
An ongoing clock source switch is indicated by the System Oscillator Changing (SOSC) flag in the Main Clock Status
(CLKCTRL.MCLKSTATUS) register. The stability of the external clock sources is indicated by the respective status
(EXTS and XOSC32KS in CLKCTRL.MCLKSTATUS) flags.
CAUTION
1. If an external clock source fails while used as the CLK_MAIN source, only the WDT can provide a
mechanism to switch back via System Reset.
2. Do not alter the properties of the external clock source while used as the CLK_MAIN source. This
can be interpreted as a clock failure.
CLK_MAIN is fed into a prescaler before it is used by the peripherals (CLK_PER) in the device. The prescaler divide
CLK_MAIN by a factor from 1 to 64.

CLKCTRL - Clock Controller
The Main Clock and Prescaler configuration (CLKCTRL.MCLKCTRLA, CLKCTRL.MCLKCTRLB) registers are
protected by the Configuration Change Protection Mechanism, employing a timed write procedure for changing these
registers.
10.3.3 Main Clock After Reset
After any Reset, CLK_MAIN is provided by the 16/20 MHz oscillator (OSC20M) and with a prescaler division
factor of 6. The actual frequency of the OSC20M is determined by the Frequency Select (FREQSEL) bits of the
Oscillator Configuration (FUSE.OSCCFG) fuse. Refer to the description of FUSE.OSCCFG for details of the possible
frequencies after Reset.
10.3.4 Clock Sources
The clock sources are divided into two main groups: internal oscillators and external clock sources. All the internal
clock sources are automatically enabled when they are requested by a peripheral.
The crystal oscillator must be enabled by writing a ‘1’ to the ENABLE bit in the 32.768 kHz Crystal Oscillator Control
A (CLKCTRL.XOSC32KCTRLA) register before it can serve as a clock source.
After Reset, the device starts running from the internal high-frequency oscillator or the internal 32.768 kHz oscillator.
The respective Oscillator Status bits in the Main Clock Status (CLKCTRL.MCLKSTATUS) register indicate if the clock
source is running and stable.
10.3.4.1 Internal Oscillators
The internal oscillators do not require any external components to run. See the related links for accuracy and
electrical characteristics.
10.3.4.1.1 16/20 MHz Oscillator (OSC20M)
This oscillator can operate at multiple frequencies, selected by the value of the Frequency Select (FREQSEL) bits in
the Oscillator Configuration (FUSE.OSCCFG) fuse.
After a system Reset, FUSE.OSCCFG determines the initial frequency of CLK_MAIN.
During Reset, the calibration values for the OSC20M are loaded from fuses. There are two different calibration
bit fields. The Calibration bit field (CAL20M) in the Calibration A (CLKCTRL.OSC20MCALIBA) register enables
calibration around the current center frequency. The Oscillator Temperature Coefficient Calibration (TEMPCAL20M)
bit field in the Calibration B (CLKCTRL.OSC20MCALIBB) register enables adjustment of the slope of the temperature
drift compensation.
For applications requiring more fine-tuned frequency than provided by the oscillator calibration, the remaining
oscillator frequency error measured during calibration is available in the Signature Row (SIGROW) for additional
compensation.
The oscillator calibration can be locked by the Oscillator Lock (OSCLOCK in FUSE.OSCCFG) fuse. When this fuse
is ‘1’, it is not possible to change the calibration. The calibration is locked if this oscillator is used as the main clock
source and the Lock Enable (LOCKEN) bit in the Control B (CLKCTRL.OSC20MCALIBB) register is ‘1’.
The calibration bits are protected by the Configuration Change Protection Mechanism, requiring a timed write
procedure for changing the main clock and prescaler settings.
Refer to the Electrical Characteristics section for the start-up time.
OSC20M Stored Frequency Error Compensation
This oscillator can operate at multiple frequencies, selected by the value of the Frequency Select (FREQSEL) bits in
the Oscillator Configuration (FUSE.OSCCFG) fuse at Reset. As previously mentioned, appropriate calibration values
are loaded to adjust to center frequency (OSC20M), and temperature drift compensation (TEMPCAL20M), meeting
the specifications defined in the internal oscillator characteristics. For applications requiring a wider operating range,
the relative factory stored frequency error after calibrations can be used. The four errors are measured at different
settings and are available in the signature row as signed byte values.

The minimum legal BAUD register value is 0x40. The target BAUD register value may therefore not be lower
than 0x4A to ensure that the compensated BAUD value stays within the legal range, even for parts with negative
compensation values. The example code below demonstrates how to apply this value for a more accurate USART
baud rate:
#include <assert.h>
/* Baud rate compensated with factory stored frequency error */
/* Asynchronous communication without Auto-baud (Sync ) */
/* 16MHz Clock, 3V and 600 BAUD

int8_t sigrow_val
= SIGROW.OSC16ERR3V;
// read signed error
// ideal BAUD register value
int32_t baud_reg_val = 600;
assert (baud_reg_val >= 0x4A);
max neg comp
baud_reg_val *= (1024 + sigrow_val);
baud_reg_val /= 1024;
USART0.BAUD = (int16_t) baud_reg_val;
// Verify legal min BAUD register value with
// sum resolution + error
// divide by resolution
// set adjusted baud rate
10.3.4.1.2 32.768 kHz Oscillator (OSCULP32K)
The 32.768 kHz oscillator is optimized for Ultra Low-Power (ULP) operation. Power consumption is decreased at the
cost of decreased accuracy compared to an external crystal oscillator.
This oscillator provides the 1.024 kHz signal for the Real-Time Counter (RTC), the Watchdog Timer (WDT), and the
Brown-out Detector (BOD).
The start-up time of this oscillator is the oscillator start-up time plus four oscillator cycles. Refer to section Electrical
Characteristics for the start-up time.
10.3.4.2 External Clock Sources
These external clock sources are available:
•
•
•
External Clock from a pin (EXTCLK).
The TOSC1 and TOSC2 pins are dedicated to driving a 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator (XOSC32K).
Instead of a crystal oscillator, TOSC1 can be configured to accept an external clock source.
10.3.4.2.1 32.768 kHz Crystal Oscillator (XOSC32K)
This oscillator supports two input options: Either a crystal is connected to the pins TOSC1 and TOSC2, or an external
clock running at 32.768 kHz is connected to TOSC1. The input option must be configured by writing the Source
Select (SEL) bit in the XOSC32K Control A (CLKCTRL.XOSC32KCTRLA) register.
The XOSC32K is enabled by writing a ‘1’ to its ENABLE bit in CLKCTRL.XOSC32KCTRLA. When enabled, the
configuration of the GPIO pins used by the XOSC32K is overridden as TOSC1 and TOSC2 pins. The Enable bit
needs to be set for the oscillator to start running when requested.
The start-up time of a given crystal oscillator can be accommodated by writing to the Crystal Start-up Time bits
(CSUT) in CLKCTRL.XOSC32KCTRLA.
When XOSC32K is configured to use an external clock on TOSC1, the start-up time is fixed to two cycles.
10.3.4.2.2 External Clock (EXTCLK)
The EXTCLK is taken directly from the pin. This GPIO pin is automatically configured for EXTCLK if any peripheral is
requesting this clock.
This clock source has a start-up time of two cycles when first requested.

This peripheral has registers that are under Configuration Change Protection (CCP). To write to these registers, a
certain key must first be written to the CPU.CCP register, followed by a write access to the protected bits within four
CPU instructions.
Attempting to write to a protected register without following the appropriate CCP unlock sequence leaves the
protected register unchanged.

Features
•
Power Management for Adjusting Power Consumption and Functions
•
Three Sleep Modes:
– Idle
– Standby
– Power-Down
•
Configurable Standby Mode where Peripherals Can Be Configured as ON or OFF
11.2
Overview
Sleep modes are used to shut down peripherals and clock domains in the device in order to save power. The Sleep
Controller (SLPCTRL) controls and handles the transitions between Active and sleep modes.
There are four modes available: One Active mode in which software is executed, and three sleep modes. The
available sleep modes are Idle, Standby and Power-Down.
All sleep modes are available and can be entered from the Active mode. In Active mode, the CPU is executing
application code. When the device enters sleep mode, the program execution is stopped. The application code
decides which sleep mode to enter and when.
Interrupts are used to wake the device from sleep. The available interrupt wake-up sources depend on the configured
sleep mode. When an interrupt occurs, the device will wake up and execute the Interrupt Service Routine before
continuing normal program execution from the first instruction after the SLEEPinstruction. Any Reset will take the
device out of sleep mode.
The content of the register file, SRAM and registers, is kept during sleep. If a Reset occurs during sleep, the device
will reset, start and execute from the Reset vector.

SLPCTRL - Sleep Controller
1. Configure and enable the interrupts that are able to wake the device from sleep.
Also, enable global interrupts.
If there are no interrupts enabled when going to sleep, the device cannot wake up again. Only a
Reset will allow the device to continue operation.
WARNING
2. Select which sleep mode to enter and enable the Sleep Controller by writing to the Sleep Mode (SMODE) bit
field and the Enable (SEN) bit in the Control A (SLPCTRL.CTRLA) register.
The SLEEPinstruction must be executed to make the device go to sleep.
11.3.2
Operation
11.3.2.1 Sleep Modes
In addition to Active mode, there are three different sleep modes with decreasing power consumption and
functionality.
Idle
The CPU stops executing code. No peripherals are disabled, and all interrupt sources can wake the
device.
Standby
The user can configure peripherals to be enabled or not, using the respective RUNSTBY bit. This
means that the power consumption is highly dependent on what functionality is enabled, and thus may
vary between the Idle and Power-Down levels.
SleepWalking is available for the ADC module.
Power-
Down
BOD, WDT, and PIT (a component of the RTC) are active.
The only wake-up sources are the pin change interrupt, PIT, VLM, TWI address match, and CCL.

1. The I/O pin has to be configured according to Asynchronous Sensing Pin Properties in the PORT section.
2. RUNSTDBY bit of the corresponding peripheral must be set to enter an active state.
3. CCL can wake up the device if the path through LUTn is asynchronous (FILTSEL=0x0and EDGEDET=0x0in
LUTnCTRLA register).
4. In Standby sleep mode, only the RTC functionality requires the RUNSTDBY to be set to enter an active state.
In Power-Down sleep mode, only the PIT functionality is available.
5. Start-of-Frame interrupt is only available in Standby Sleep Mode.
6. In Standby Sleep Mode only the Start-of-Frame interrupt will trigger Wake-Up from USART.
11.3.2.2 Wake-up Time
The normal wake-up time for the device is six main clock cycles (CLK_PER), plus the time it takes to start the main
clock source:
•
In Idle sleep mode, the main clock source is kept running to eliminate additional wake-up time.
DS40002174C-page 104

ATmega3208/3209
SLPCTRL - Sleep Controller
•
•
In Standby sleep mode, the main clock might be running depending on the peripheral configuration.
In Power-Down sleep mode, only the ULP 32.768 kHz oscillator and the RTC clock may be running if it is used
by the BOD or WDT. All other clock sources will be OFF.
Table 11-4.ꢀSleep Modes and Start-up Time
Sleep Mode
IDLE
Start-up Time
6 CLK
Standby
6 CLK + OSC start-up
6 CLK + OSC start-up
Power-Down
The start-up time for the different clock sources is described in the Clock Controller (CLKCTRL) section.
In addition to the normal wake-up time, it is possible to make the device wait until the BOD is ready before
executing code. This is done by writing 0x3 to the BOD Operation mode in Active and Idle bits (ACTIVE) in the BOD
Configuration fuse (FUSE.BODCFG). If the BOD is ready before the normal wake-up time, the total wake-up time will
be the same. If the BOD takes longer than the normal wake-up time, the wake-up time will be extended until the BOD
is ready. This ensures correct supply voltage whenever code is executed.
11.3.3
Debug Operation
During run-time debugging, this peripheral will continue normal operation. The SLPCTRL is only affected by a break
in the debug operation: If the SLPCTRL is in a sleep mode when a break occurs, the device will wake up, and the
SLPCTRL will go to Active mode, even if there are no pending interrupt requests.
If the peripheral is configured to require periodic service by the CPU through interrupts or similar, improper operation
or data loss may result during halted debugging.

12.3
Functional Description
12.3.1 Initialization
The RSTCTRL is always enabled, but some of the Reset sources must be enabled individually (either by Fuses or by
software) before they can request a Reset.
After a Reset from any source, the registers in the device with automatic loading from the Fuses or from the
Signature Row are updated.
12.3.2 Operation
12.3.2.1 Reset Sources
After any Reset, the source that caused the Reset is found in the Reset Flag (RSTCTRL.RSTFR) register. The user
can identify the previous Reset source by reading this register in the software application.
There are two types of Resets based on the source:
•
•
Power Supply Reset Sources:
– Power-on Reset (POR)
– Brown-out Detector (BOD) Reset
User Reset Sources:
– External Reset (RESET)
– Watchdog Timer (WDT) Reset
– Software Reset (SWRST)
– Unified Program and Debug Interface (UPDI) Reset
12.3.2.1.1 Power-on Reset (POR)
The purpose of the Power-on Reset (POR) is to ensure a safe start-up of logic and memories. It is generated by an

long as VDD is below the POR threshold voltage (VPOR+). The reset will last until the Start-up and reset initialization
sequence is finished. The Start-up Time (SUT) is determined by fuses. Reset is activated again, without any delay,
when VDD falls below the detection level (VPOR-).

12.3.2.2 Reset Time
The Reset time can be split into two parts.
The first part is when any of the Reset sources are active. This part depends on the input to the Reset sources. The
external Reset is active as long as the RESET pin is low. The Power-on Reset (POR) and the Brown-out Detector
(BOD) are active as long as the supply voltage is below the Reset source threshold.
The second part is when all the Reset sources are released, and an internal Reset initialization of the device is done.
This time will be increased with the start-up time given by the Start-Up Time Setting (SUT) bit field in the System
Configuration 1 (FUSE.SYSCFG1) fuse when the reset is caused by a Power Supply Reset Source. The internal
Reset initialization time will also increase if the Cyclic Redundancy Check Memory Scan (CRCSCAN) is configured to
run at start-up. This configuration can be changed in the CRC Source (CRCSRC) bit field in the System Configuration
0 (FUSE.SYSCFG0) fuse.
12.3.3 Sleep Mode Operation
The RSTCTRL operates in Active mode and in all sleep modes.
12.3.4 Configuration Change Protection
This peripheral has registers that are under Configuration Change Protection (CCP). To write to these registers, a
certain key must first be written to the CPU.CCP register, followed by a write access to the protected bits within four
CPU instructions.
Attempting to write to a protected register without following the appropriate CCP unlock sequence leaves the
protected register unchanged.
The following registers are under CCP:

Overview
An interrupt request signals a change of state inside a peripheral and can be used to alter the program execution.
The peripherals can have one or more interrupts. All interrupts are individually enabled and configured. When an
interrupt is enabled and configured, it will generate an interrupt request when the interrupt condition occurs.
The CPU Interrupt Controller (CPUINT) handles and prioritizes the interrupt requests. When an interrupt is enabled
and the interrupt condition occurs, the CPUINT will receive the interrupt request. Based on the interrupt's priority level
and the priority level of any ongoing interrupt, the interrupt request is either acknowledged or kept pending until it
has priority. After returning from the interrupt handler, the program execution continues from where it was before the
interrupt occurred, and any pending interrupts are served after one instruction is executed.
The CPUINT offers NMI for critical functions, one selectable high-priority interrupt and an optional round robin
scheduling scheme for normal-priority interrupts. The round robin scheduling ensures that all interrupts are serviced
within a certain amount of time.

Functional Description
13.3.1 Initialization
An interrupt must be initialized in the following order:
1. Configure the CPUINT if the default configuration is not adequate (optional):
– Vector handling is configured by writing to the respective bits (IVSEL and CVT) in the Control A
(CPUINT.CTRLA) register.
– Vector prioritizing by round robin is enabled by writing a ‘1’ to the Round Robin Priority Enable (LVL0RR)
bit in CPUINT.CTRLA.
– Select the Priority Level 1 vector by writing the interrupt vector number to the Interrupt Vector with Priority
Level 1 (CPUINT.LVL1VEC) register.
2. Configure the interrupt conditions within the peripheral and enable the peripheral’s interrupt.
3. Enable interrupts globally by writing a ‘1’ to the Global Interrupt Enable (I) bit in the CPU Status (CPU.SREG)
register.
13.3.2 Operation
13.3.2.1 Enabling, Disabling and Resetting
The global enabling of interrupts is done by writing a ‘1’ to the Global Interrupt Enable (I) bit in the CPU Status
(CPU.SREG) register. To disable interrupts globally, write a ‘0’ to the I bit in CPU.SREG.
The desired interrupt lines must also be enabled in the respective peripheral by writing to the peripheral’s Interrupt
Control (peripheral.INTCTRL) register.
The interrupt flags are not automatically cleared after the interrupt is executed. The respective INTFLAGS register
descriptions provide information on how to clear specific flags.
13.3.2.2 Interrupt Vector Locations
The interrupt vector placement is dependent on the value of the Interrupt Vector Select (IVSEL) bit in the Control A
(CPUINT.CTRLA) register. Refer to the IVSEL description in CPUINT.CTRLA for the possible locations.
If the program never enables an interrupt source, the interrupt vectors are not used, and the regular program code
can be placed at these locations.
13.3.2.3 Interrupt Response Time
The minimum interrupt response time is represented in the following table.

If an interrupt occurs when the device is in a sleep mode, the interrupt execution response time is increased by five

A return from an interrupt handling routine takes four to five clock cycles, depending on the size of the Program
Counter. During these clock cycles, the Program Counter is popped from the stack, and the Stack Pointer is
incremented.
Note:ꢀ
1. Devices with 8 KB of Flash or less use RJMPinstead of JMP, which takes only two clock cycles.
13.3.2.4 Interrupt Priority
All interrupt vectors are assigned to one of three possible priority levels, as shown in the table below. An interrupt
request from a high-priority source will interrupt any ongoing interrupt handler from a normal-priority source. When
returning from the high-priority interrupt handler, the execution of the normal-priority interrupt handler will resume.

13.3.2.4.1 Non-Maskable Interrupts
A Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI) will be executed regardless of the I bit setting in CPU.SREG. An NMI will never
change the I bit. No other interrupt can interrupt an NMI handler. If more than one NMI is requested at the same time,
the priority is static according to the interrupt vector address, where the lowest address has the highest priority.
Which interrupts are non-maskable is device-dependent and not subject to configuration. Non-maskable interrupts
must be enabled before they can be used. Refer to the Interrupt Vector Mapping table of the device for available NMI
sources.
13.3.2.4.2 High-Priority Interrupt
It is possible to assign one interrupt request to level 1 (high priority) by writing its interrupt vector number to the
CPUINT.LVL1VEC register. This interrupt request will have a higher priority than the other (normal priority) interrupt
requests. The priority level 1 interrupts will interrupt the level 0 interrupt handlers.
13.3.2.4.3 Normal-Priority Interrupts
All interrupt vectors other than NMI are assigned to priority level 0 (normal) by default. The user may override this by
assigning one of these vectors as a high-priority vector. The device will have many normal-priority vectors, and some
of these may be pending at the same time. Two different scheduling schemes are available to choose which of the
pending normal-priority interrupts to service first: Static or round robin.
IVEC is the interrupt vector mapping, as listed in the Peripherals and Architecture section. The following sections
use IVEC to explain the scheduling schemes. IVEC0 is the Reset vector, IVEC1 is the NMI vector, and so on. In a
vector table with n+1 elements, the vector with the highest vector number is denoted IVECn. Reset, non-maskable
interrupts, and high-level interrupts are included in the IVEC map, but will always be prioritized over the normal-
priority interrupts.
Static Scheduling
If several level 0 interrupt requests are pending at the same time, the one with the highest priority is scheduled for
execution first. The following figure illustrates the default configuration, where the interrupt vector with the lowest
address has the highest priority.

Modified Static Scheduling
The default priority can be changed by writing a vector number to the CPUINT.LVL0PRI register. This vector number
will be assigned the lowest priority. The next interrupt vector in the IVEC will have the highest priority among the LVL0
interrupts, as shown in the following figure.

Here, value Y has been written to CPUINT.LVL0PRI, so that interrupt vector Y+1 has the highest priority. Note that, in
this case, the priorities will wrap so that the lowest address no longer has the highest priority. This does not include
RESET and NMI, which will always have the highest priority.
Refer to the interrupt vector mapping of the device for available interrupt requests and their interrupt vector number.
Round Robin Scheduling
The static scheduling may prevent some interrupt requests from being serviced. To avoid this, the CPUINT offers
round robin scheduling for normal-priority (LVL0) interrupts. In the round robin scheduling, the CPUINT.LVL0PRI
register stores the last acknowledged interrupt vector number. This register ensures that the last acknowledged
interrupt vector gets the lowest priority and is automatically updated by the hardware. The following figure illustrates
the priority order after acknowledging IVEC Y and after acknowledging IVEC Y+1.

CPUINT - CPU Interrupt Controller
13.3.2.5 Compact Vector Table
The Compact Vector Table (CVT) is a feature to allow writing of compact code by having all level 0 interrupts share
the same interrupt vector number. Thus, the interrupts share the same Interrupt Service Routine (ISR). This reduces
the number of interrupt handlers and thereby frees up memory that can be used for the application code.
When CVT is enabled by writing a ‘1’ to the CVT bit in the Control A (CPUINT.CTRLA) register, the vector table
contains these three interrupt vectors:
1. The non-maskable interrupts (NMI) at vector address 1.
2. The Priority Level 1 (LVL1) interrupt at vector address 2.
3. All priority level 0 (LVL0) interrupts at vector address 3.
This feature is most suitable for devices with limited memory and applications using a small number of interrupt
generators.
13.3.3 Debug Operation
When using a level 1 priority interrupt, it is important to make sure the Interrupt Service Routine is configured
correctly as it may cause the application to be stuck in an interrupt loop with level 1 priority.
By reading the CPUINT STATUS (CPUINT.STATUS) register, it is possible to see if the application has executed the
correct RETI(interrupt return) instruction. The CPUINT.STATUS register contains state information, which ensures
that the CPUINT returns to the correct interrupt level when the RETIinstruction is executed at the end of an interrupt
handler. Returning from an interrupt will return the CPUINT to the state it had before entering the interrupt.
13.3.4 Configuration Change Protection
This peripheral has registers that are under Configuration Change Protection (CCP). To write to these registers, a
certain key must first be written to the CPU.CCP register, followed by a write access to the protected bits within four
CPU instructions.
Attempting to write to a protected register without following the appropriate CCP unlock sequence leaves the
protected register unchanged.
The following registers are under CCP:

Overview
The Event System (EVSYS) enables direct peripheral-to-peripheral signaling. It allows a change in one peripheral
(the event generator) to trigger actions in other peripherals (the event users) through event channels, without
using the CPU. It is designed to provide short and predictable response times between peripherals, allowing for
autonomous peripheral control and interaction, and also for synchronized timing of actions in several peripheral
modules. It is thus a powerful tool for reducing the complexity, size, and execution time of the software.
A change of the event generator's state is referred to as an event and usually corresponds to one of the peripheral's
interrupt conditions. Events can be directly forwarded to other peripherals using the dedicated event routing network.
The routing of each channel is configured in software, including event generation and use.
Only one event signal can be routed on each channel. Multiple peripherals can use events from the same channel.
The EVSYS can directly connect analog-to-digital converters, analog comparators, I/O port pins, real-time counter,
timer/counters, and configurable custom logic peripheral. Events can also be generated from the software.

The block diagram shows the operation of an event channel. A multiplexer controlled by Channel n Generator
Selection (EVSYS.CHANNELn) register at the input selects which of the event sources to route onto the event
channel. Each event channel has two subchannels: One asynchronous and one synchronous. A synchronous user
will listen to the synchronous subchannel, and an asynchronous user will listen to the asynchronous subchannel.

EVSYS - Event System
Before being routed to the synchronous subchannel, an event signal from an asynchronous source will be
synchronized by the Event System. An asynchronous event signal to be used by a synchronous consumer must
last for at least one peripheral clock cycle to ensure that it will propagate through the synchronizer. The synchronizer
will delay, such as an event between two and three clock cycles, depending on when the event occurs.

Functional Description
14.3.1 Initialization
The Event System, the generating peripheral, and the peripheral(s) using the event must be set up accordingly to
utilize events:
1. Configure the generating peripheral appropriately. For example, if the generating peripheral is a timer, set the
prescaling, the Compare register, etc., so that the desired event is generated.
2. Configure the event user peripheral(s) appropriately. For example, if the ADC is the event user, set the ADC
prescaler, resolution, conversion time, etc., as desired, and configure the ADC conversion to start on the
reception of an event.
3. Configure the Event System to route the desired source. In this case, the Timer/Compare match to the desired
event channel, which may for example, be channel 0, which is accomplished by writing to the Channel 0
Generator Selection (EVSYS.CHANNEL0) register.
4. Configure the ADC to listen to this channel by writing to the corresponding User x Channel MUX
(EVSYS.USERx) register.
14.3.2 Operation
14.3.2.1 Event User Multiplexer Setup
Each event user has one dedicated event user multiplexer selecting which event channel to listen to. The application
configures these multiplexers by writing to the corresponding EVSYS.USERx register.

EVSYS - Event System
14.3.2.2 Event System Channel
An event channel can be connected to one of the event generators.
The source for each event channel is configured by writing to the respective Channel n Generator Selection
(EVSYS.CHANNELn) register.
14.3.2.3 Event Generators
Each event channel has several possible event generators, but only one can be selected at a time. The event
generator for a channel is selected by writing to the respective Channel n Generator Selection (EVSYS.CHANNELn)
register. By default, the channels are not connected to any event generator. For details on event generation, refer to
the documentation of the corresponding peripheral.
A generated event is either synchronous or asynchronous to the device peripheral clock (CLK_PER). Asynchronous
events can be generated outside the normal edges of the peripheral clock, making the system respond faster than
the selected clock frequency would suggest. Asynchronous events can also be generated while the device is in a
Sleep mode when the peripheral clock is not running.
Any generated event is classified as either a pulse event or a level event. In both cases, the event can be either
synchronous or asynchronous, with properties according to the table below.

14.3.2.4 Event Users
The event channel to listen to is selected by configuring the event user. An event user may require the event signal to
be either synchronous or asynchronous to the peripheral clock. An asynchronous event user can respond to events
in Sleep modes when clocks are not running. Such events can be responded to outside the normal edges of the
peripheral clock, making the event user respond faster than the clock frequency would suggest. For details on the
requirements of each peripheral, refer to the documentation of the corresponding peripheral.
Most event users implement edge or level detection to trigger actions in the corresponding peripheral based on the
incoming event signal. In both cases, a user can either be synchronous, which requires that the incoming event is
generated from the peripheral clock (CLK_PER), or asynchronous, if not. Some asynchronous event users do not
apply event input detection but use the event signal directly.
The different event user properties are described in the table below.

14.3.2.5 Synchronization
Events can be either synchronous or asynchronous to the peripheral clock. Each Event System channel has two
subchannels: One asynchronous and one synchronous.
The asynchronous subchannel is identical to the event output from the generator. If the event generator generates a
signal asynchronous to the peripheral clock, the signal on the asynchronous subchannel will be asynchronous. If the
event generator generates a signal synchronous to the peripheral clock, the signal on the asynchronous subchannel
will also be synchronous.
The synchronous subchannel is identical to the event output from the generator if the event generator generates a
signal that is synchronous to the peripheral clock. If the event generator generates a signal that is asynchronous
to the peripheral clock, this signal is first synchronized before being routed onto the synchronous subchannel.
Depending on when it occurs, synchronization will delay the event by two to three clock cycles. The Event System
automatically performs this synchronization if an asynchronous generator is selected for an event channel.
14.3.2.6 Software Event
The application can generate a software event. Software events on Channel n are issued by writing a ‘1’ to the
STROBE[n] bit in the EVSYS.STROBEx register. A software event appears as a pulse on the Event System channel,
inverting the current event signal for one clock cycle.
Event users see software events as no different from those produced by event generating peripherals.
14.3.3 Sleep Mode Operation
When configured, the Event System will work in all sleep modes. Software events represent one exception since they
require a peripheral clock.
Asynchronous event users can respond to an event without their clock running in Standby sleep mode. Synchronous
event users require their clock to be running to be able to respond to events. Such users will only work in Idle sleep
mode or Standby sleep mode, if configured to run in Standby mode by setting the RUNSTDBY bit in the appropriate
register.
Asynchronous event generators can generate an event without their clock running, that is, in Standby sleep mode.
Synchronous event generators require their clock to be running to be able to generate events. Such generators will
only work in Idle sleep mode or Standby sleep mode, if configured to run in Standby mode by setting the RUNSTDBY
bit in the appropriate register.

16.2
Overview
The I/O pins of the device are controlled by instances of the PORT peripheral registers. Each PORT instance
has up to eight I/O pins. The PORTs are named PORTA, PORTB, PORTC, etc. Refer to the I/O Multiplexing and
Considerations section to see which pins are controlled by what instance of PORT. The base addresses of the PORT
instances and the corresponding Virtual PORT instances are listed in the Peripherals and Architecture section.
Each PORT pin has a corresponding bit in the Data Direction (PORTx.DIR) and Data Output Value (PORTx.OUT)
registers to enable that pin as an output and to define the output state. For example, pin PA3 is controlled by DIR[3]
and OUT[3] of the PORTA instance.
The input value of a PORT pin is synchronized to the Peripheral Clock (CLK_PER) and then made accessible as the
data input value (PORTx.IN). The value of the pin can be read whether the pin is configured as input or output.
The PORT also supports asynchronous input sensing with interrupts and events for selectable pin change conditions.
Asynchronous pin change sensing means that a pin change can trigger an interrupt and wake the device from sleep,
including sleep modes where CLK_PER is stopped.
All pin functions are individually configurable per pin. The pins have hardware Read-Modify-Write functionality for a
safe and correct change of the drive values and/or input and sense configuration.
The PORT pin configuration controls input and output selection of other device functions.

PORT - I/O Pin Configuration
16.3
Functional Description
16.3.1 Initialization
After Reset, all outputs are tri-stated, and digital input buffers enabled even if there is no clock running.
The following steps are all optional when initializing PORT operation:
•
Enable or disable the output driver for pin Pxn by respectively writing ‘1’ to bit n in the PORTx.DIRSET or
PORTx.DIRCLR register
•
Set the output driver for pin Pxn to high or low level respectively by writing ‘1’ to bit n in the PORTx.OUTSET or
PORTx.OUTCLR register
•
•
Read the input of pin Pxn by reading bit n in the PORTx.IN register
Configure the individual pin configurations and interrupt control for pin Pxn in PORTx.PINnCTRL
Important:ꢀ For lowest power consumption, disable the digital input buffer of unused pins and pins that
are used as analog inputs or outputs.
Specific pins, such as those used to connect a debugger, may be configured differently, as required by their special
function.
16.3.2 Operation
16.3.2.1 Basic Functions
Each pin group x has its own set of PORT registers. I/O pin Pxn can be controlled by the registers in PORTx.
To use pin number n as an output, write bit n of the PORTx.DIR register to ‘1’. This can be done by writing bit n in the
PORTx.DIRSET register to ‘1’, which will avoid disturbing the configuration of other pins in that group. The nth bit in
the PORTx.OUT register must be written to the desired output value.
Similarly, writing a PORTx.OUTSET bit to ‘1’ will set the corresponding bit in the PORTx.OUT register to ‘1’. Writing a
bit in PORTx.OUTCLR to ‘1’ will clear that bit in PORTx.OUT to ‘0’. Writing a bit in PORTx.OUTTGL or PORTx.IN to
‘1’ will toggle that bit in PORTx.OUT.
To use pin n as an input, bit n in the PORTx.DIR register must be written to ‘0’ to disable the output driver. This can
be done by writing bit n in the PORTx.DIRCLR register to ‘1’, which will avoid disturbing the configuration of other
pins in that group. The input value can be read from bit n in the PORTx.IN register as long as the ISC bit is not set to
INPUT_DISABLE.
Writing a bit to ‘1’ in PORTx.DIRTGL will toggle that bit in PORTx.DIR and toggle the direction of the corresponding
pin.
16.3.2.2 Port Configuration
The Port Control (PORTx.PORTCTRL) register is used to configure the slew rate limitation for all the PORTx pins.
The slew rate limitation is enabled by writing a ‘1’ to the Slew Rate Limit Enable (SLR) bit in PORTx.PORTCTRL.
Refer to the Electrical Characteristics section for further details.
16.3.2.3 Pin Configuration
The Pin n Control (PORTx.PINnCTRL) register is used to configure inverted I/O, pull-up, and input sensing of a pin.
The control register for pin n is at the byte address PORTx + 0x10 + n.
All input and output on the respective pin n can be inverted by writing a ‘1’ to the Inverted I/O Enable (INVEN)
bit in PORTx.PINnCTRL. When INVEN is ‘1’, the PORTx.IN/OUT/OUTSET/OUTTGL registers will have an inverted
operation for this pin.
Toggling the INVEN bit causes an edge on the pin, which can be detected by all peripherals using this pin, and is
seen by interrupts or events if enabled.
DS40002174C-page 148
Complete Datasheet
© 2021 Microchip Technology Inc.
ATmega3208/3209
PORT - I/O Pin Configuration
The input pull-up of pin n is enabled by writing a ‘1’ to the Pull-up Enable (PULLUPEN) bit in PORTx.PINnCTRL. The
pull-up is disconnected when the pin is configured as an output, even if PULLUPEN is ‘1’.
Pin interrupts can be enabled for pin n by writing to the Input/Sense Configuration (ISC) bit field in
PORTx.PINnCTRL. Refer to 16.3.3 Interrupts for further details.
The digital input buffer for pin n can be disabled by writing the INPUT_DISABLE setting to ISC. This can reduce
power consumption and may reduce noise if the pin is used as analog input. While configured to INPUT_DISABLE,
bit n in PORTx.IN will not change since the input synchronizer is disabled.
16.3.2.4 Virtual Ports
The Virtual PORT registers map the most frequently used regular PORT registers into the I/O Register space with
single-cycle bit access. Access to the Virtual PORT registers has the same outcome as access to the regular
registers but allows for memory specific instructions, such as bit manipulation instructions, which cannot be used in
the extended I/O Register space where the regular PORT registers reside. The following table shows the mapping
between the PORT and VPORT registers.

16.3.2.5 Peripheral Override
Peripherals such as USARTs, ADCs and timers may be connected to I/O pins. Such peripherals will usually have
a primary and, optionally, one or more alternate I/O pin connections, selectable by PORTMUX or a multiplexer
inside the peripheral. By configuring and enabling such peripherals, the general purpose I/O pin behavior normally
controlled by PORT will be overridden in a peripheral dependent way. Some peripherals may not override all the
PORT registers, leaving the PORT module to control some aspects of the I/O pin operation.
Refer to the description of each peripheral for information on the peripheral override. Any pin in a PORT that is not
overridden by a peripheral will continue to operate as a general purpose I/O pin.
16.3.3 Interrupts
Table 16-2.ꢀAvailable Interrupt Vectors and Sources
Name Vector Description Conditions
INTn in PORTx.INTFLAGS is raised as configured by the Input/Sense Configuration
(ISC) bit in PORTx.PINnCTRL
PORTx PORT interrupt
Each PORT pin n can be configured as an interrupt source. Each interrupt can be individually enabled or disabled by
writing to ISC in PORTx.PINnCTRL.
When an interrupt condition occurs, the corresponding interrupt flag is set in the Interrupt Flags register of the
peripheral (peripheral.INTFLAGS).
An interrupt request is generated when the corresponding interrupt source is enabled, and the interrupt flag is set.
The interrupt request remains active until the interrupt flag is cleared. See the peripheral's INTFLAGS register for
details on how to clear interrupt flags.
When setting or changing interrupt settings, take these points into account:
•
If an Inverted I/O Enable (INVEN) bit is toggled in the same cycle as ISC is changed, the edge caused by the
inversion toggling may not cause an interrupt request
•
If an input is disabled by writing to ISC while synchronizing an interrupt, that interrupt may be requested on
re-enabling the input, even if it is re-enabled with a different interrupt setting

If the interrupt setting is changed by writing to ISC while synchronizing an interrupt, that interrupt may not be
requested
16.3.3.1 Asynchronous Sensing Pin Properties
All PORT pins support asynchronous input sensing with interrupts for selectable pin change conditions. Fully
asynchronous pin change sensing can trigger an interrupt and wake the device from all sleep modes, including
modes where the Peripheral Clock (CLK_PER) is stopped, while partially asynchronous pin change sensing is limited
as per the table below. See the I/O Multiplexing and Considerations section for further details on which pins support
fully asynchronous pin change sensing.

Interrupt “dead-time”
Note:ꢀ
1. If a partially asynchronous input pin is used for wake-up from sleep with CLK_PER stopped, the required level
must be held long enough for the MCU to complete the wake-up to trigger the interrupt. If the level disappears,
the MCU can wake up without any interrupt generated.
16.3.4 Events
PORT can generate the following events:

Given by pin level
All PORT pins are asynchronous event system generators. PORT has as many event generators as there are PORT
pins in the device. Each event system output from PORT is the value present on the corresponding pin if the digital
input buffer is enabled. If a pin input buffer is disabled, the corresponding event system output is zero.
PORT has no event inputs. Refer to the Event System (EVSYS) section for more details regarding event types and
Event System configuration.
16.3.5 Sleep Mode Operation
Except for interrupts and input synchronization, all pin configurations are independent of sleep modes. All pins can
wake the device from sleep, see the PORT Interrupt section for further details.
Peripherals connected to the PORTs can be affected by sleep modes, described in the respective peripherals’ data
sheet section.

PORT - I/O Pin Configuration
Important:ꢀ The PORTs will always use the Peripheral Clock (CLK_PER). Input synchronization will halt
when this clock stops.
16.3.6 Debug Operation
When the CPU is halted in Debug mode, the PORT continues normal operation. If the PORT is configured in a way
that requires it to be periodically serviced by the CPU through interrupts or similar, improper operation or data loss
may result during debugging.

BOD - Brown-out Detector
17.1
Features
•
Brown-out Detector Monitors the Power Supply to Avoid Operation Below a Programmable Level
•
Three Available Modes:
– Enabled mode (continuously active)
– Sampled mode
– Disabled
•
•
•
Separate Selection of Mode for Active and Sleep Modes
Voltage Level Monitor (VLM) with Interrupt
Programmable VLM Level Relative to the BOD Level
17.2
Overview
The Brown-out Detector (BOD) monitors the power supply and compares the supply voltage with the programmable
brown-out threshold level. The brown-out threshold level defines when to generate a System Reset. The Voltage
Level Monitor (VLM) monitors the power supply and compares it to a threshold higher than the BOD threshold. The
VLM can then generate an interrupt as an “early warning” when the supply voltage is approaching the BOD threshold.
The VLM threshold level is expressed as a percentage above the BOD threshold level.
The BOD is controlled mainly by fuses and has to be enabled by the user. The mode used in Standby sleep mode
and Power-Down sleep mode can be altered in normal program execution. The VLM is controlled by I/O registers as
well.
When activated, the BOD can operate in Enabled mode, where the BOD is continuously active, or in Sampled mode,
where the BOD is activated briefly at a given period to check the supply voltage level.

Functional Description
17.3.1 Initialization
The BOD settings are loaded from fuses during Reset. The BOD level and operating mode in Active and Idle sleep
mode are set by fuses and cannot be changed by software. The operating mode in Standby and Power-Down sleep
mode is loaded from fuses and can be changed by software.
The Voltage Level Monitor function can be enabled by writing a ‘1’ to the VLM Interrupt Enable (VLMIE) bit in
the Interrupt Control (BOD.INTCTRL) register. The VLM interrupt is configured by writing the VLM Configuration
(VLMCFG) bits in BOD.INTCTRL. An interrupt is requested when the supply voltage crosses the VLM threshold
either from above, below, or any direction.
The VLM functionality will follow the BOD mode. If the BOD is disabled, the VLM will not be enabled, even if the
VLMIE is ‘1’. If the BOD is using Sampled mode, the VLM will also be sampled. When the VLM interrupt is enabled,
the interrupt flag will be set according to VLMCFG when the voltage level is crossing the VLM level.
The VLM threshold is defined by writing the VLM Level (VLMLVL) bits in the Control A (BOD.VLMCTRLA) register.

BOD - Brown-out Detector
The VLM interrupt will not be executed if the CPU is halted in Debug mode.
When an interrupt condition occurs, the corresponding interrupt flag is set in the peripheral’s Interrupt Flags
(peripheral.INTFLAGS) register.
An interrupt source is enabled or disabled by writing to the corresponding enable bit in the peripheral’s Interrupt
Control (peripheral.INTCTRL) register.
An interrupt request is generated when the corresponding interrupt source is enabled, and the interrupt flag is set.
The interrupt request remains active until the interrupt flag is cleared. See the peripheral’s INTFLAGS register for
details on how to clear interrupt flags.
17.3.3 Sleep Mode Operation
The BOD configuration in the different sleep modes is defined by fuses. The mode used in Active mode and Idle
sleep mode is defined by the ACTIVE fuses in FUSE.BODCFG, which is loaded into the ACTIVE bit field in the
Control A (BOD.CTRLA) register. The mode used in Standby sleep mode and Power-Down sleep mode is defined by
SLEEP in FUSE.BODCFG, which is loaded into the SLEEP bit field in the Control A (BOD.CTRLA) register.
The operating mode in Active mode and Idle sleep mode (i.e., ACTIVE in BOD.CTRLA) cannot be altered by
software. The operating mode in Standby sleep mode and Power-Down sleep mode can be altered by writing to the
SLEEP bit field in the Control A (BOD.CTRLA) register.
When the device is going into Standby or Power-Down sleep mode, the BOD will change the operation mode as
defined by SLEEP in BOD.CTRLA. When the device is waking up from Standby or Power-Down sleep mode, the
BOD will operate in the mode defined by the ACTIVE bit field in the Control A (BOD.CTRLA) register.
17.3.4 Configuration Change Protection
This peripheral has registers that are under Configuration Change Protection (CCP). To write to these registers, a
certain key must first be written to the CPU.CCP register, followed by a write access to the protected bits within four
CPU instructions.
Attempting to write to a protected register without following the appropriate CCP unlock sequence leaves the
protected register unchanged.
The following registers are under CCP:

Functional Description
18.3.1 Initialization
The output level from the reference buffer should be selected (ADC0REFSEL and AC0REFSEL in VREF.CTRLA)
before the respective modules are enabled. The reference buffer is then automatically enabled when requested by a
peripheral. Changing the reference while these modules are enabled could lead to unpredictable behavior.
The VREF module and reference voltage sources can be forced to be ON, independent of being required
by a peripheral, by writing to the respective Force Enable bits (ADC0REFEN, AC0REFEN) in the Control B
(VREF.CTRLB) register. This can be used to remove the reference start-up time, at the cost of increased power
consumption.

Overview
The Watchdog Timer (WDT) is a system function for monitoring correct program operation. It allows the system
to recover from situations such as runaway or deadlocked code by issuing a Reset. When enabled, the WDT is
a constantly running timer configured to a predefined time-out period. If the WDT is not reset within the time-out
period, it will issue a system Reset. The WDT is reset by executing the Watchdog Timer Reset (WDR) instruction from
software.
The WDT has two modes of operation: Normal mode and Window mode. The settings in the Control A (WDT.CTRLA)
register determine the mode of operation.
A Window mode defines a time slot or "window" inside the time-out period during which the WDT must be reset. If the
WDT is reset outside this window, either too early or too late, a system Reset will be issued. Compared to the Normal
mode, the Window mode can catch situations where a code error causes constant WDRexecution.
When enabled, the WDT will run in Active mode and all sleep modes. It is asynchronous (i.e., running from a CPU
independent clock source). For this reason, it will continue to operate and be able to issue a system Reset even if the
main clock fails.
The CCP mechanism ensures that the WDT settings cannot be changed by accident. For increased safety, a
configuration for locking the WDT settings is available.

Functional Description
19.3.1 Initialization
•
The WDT is enabled when a non-zero value is written to the Period (PERIOD) bits in the Control A
(WDT.CTRLA) register
•
Optional: Write a non-zero value to the Window (WINDOW) bits in WDT.CTRLA to enable the Window mode
operation.
All bits in the Control A register and the Lock (LOCK) bit in the STATUS (WDT.STATUS) register are write-protected
by the Configuration Change Protection mechanism.
The Reset value of WDT.CTRLA is defined by a fuse (FUSE.WDTCFG), so the WDT can be enabled at boot time. If
this is the case, the LOCK bit in WDT.STATUS is set at boot time.
19.3.2 Clocks
A 1.024 kHz Oscillator Clock (CLK_WDT_OSC) is sourced from the internal Ultra Low-Power Oscillator,
OSCULP32K. Due to the ultra low-power design, the oscillator is not very accurate, and so the exact time-out period
may vary from device to device. This variation must be kept in mind when designing software that uses the WDT to
ensure that the time-out periods used are valid for all devices.
The 1.024 kHz Oscillator Clock, CLK_WDT_OSC, is asynchronous to the system clock. Due to this asynchronicity,
writing to the WDT Control register will require synchronization between the clock domains.
19.3.3 Operation
19.3.3.1 Normal Mode
In Normal mode operation, a single time-out period is set for the WDT. If the WDT is not reset from software using the
WDRany time before the time-out occurs, the WDT will issue a system Reset.
A new WDT time-out period will be started each time the WDT is reset by WDR.
There are 11 possible WDT time-out periods (TOWDT), selectable from 8 ms to 8s by writing to the Period (PERIOD)
bit field in the Control A (WDT.CTRLA) register.

Normal mode is enabled as long as the WINDOW bit field in the Control A (WDT.CTRLA) register is 0x0.
19.3.3.2 Window Mode
In Window mode operation, the WDT uses two different time-out periods: A closed Window Time-out period
(TOWDTW) and the normal time-out period (TOWDT):
•
The closed window time-out period defines a duration from 8 ms to 8s, where the WDT cannot be reset. If the
WDT is reset during this period, the WDT will issue a system Reset.
•
The normal WDT time-out period, which is also 8 ms to 8s, defines the duration of the open period during which
the WDT can (and needs to) be reset. The open period will always follow the closed period, so the total duration
of the time-out period is the sum of the closed window and the open window time-out periods.
When enabling Window mode or when going out of Debug mode, the first closed period is activated after the first WDR
instruction.
If a second WDRis issued while a previous WDRis being synchronized, the second one will be ignored.

The Window mode is enabled by writing a non-zero value to the WINDOW bit field in the Control A (WDT.CTRLA)
register, and disabled by writing it to 0x0.
19.3.3.3 Configuration Protection and Lock
The WDT provides two security mechanisms to avoid unintentional changes to the WDT settings.
The first mechanism is the Configuration Change Protection mechanism, employing a timed-write procedure for
changing the WDT control registers.
The second mechanism locks the configuration by writing a ‘1’ to the LOCK bit in the STATUS (WDT.STATUS)
register. When this bit is ‘1’, the Control A (WDT.CTRLA) register cannot be changed. Consequently, the WDT cannot
be disabled from the software.

© 2021 Microchip Technology Inc.
ATmega3208/3209
WDT - Watchdog Timer
LOCK in WDT.STATUS can only be written to ‘1’. It can only be cleared in Debug mode.
If the WDT configuration is loaded from fuses, LOCK is automatically set in WDT.STATUS.
19.3.4 Sleep Mode Operation
The WDT will continue to operate in any sleep mode where the source clock is Active.
19.3.5 Debug Operation
When run-time debugging, this peripheral will continue normal operation. Halting the CPU in Debugging mode will
halt the normal operation of the peripheral.
When halting the CPU in Debug mode, the WDT counter is reset.
When starting the CPU again and the WDT is operating in Window mode, the first closed window time-out period will
be disabled, and a Normal mode time-out period is executed.
19.3.6 Synchronization
Due to asynchronicity between the main clock domain and the peripheral clock domain, the Control A (WDT.CTRLA)
register is synchronized when written. The Synchronization Busy (SYNCBUSY) flag in the STATUS (WDT.STATUS)
register indicates if there is an ongoing synchronization.
Writing to WDT.CTRLA while SYNCBUSY=1is not allowed.
The following registers are synchronized when written:
•
•
PERIOD bits in Control A (WDT.CTRLA) register
Window Period (WINDOW) bits in WDT.CTRLA
The WDRinstruction will need two to three cycles of the WDT clock to be synchronized. Issuing a new WDRinstruction
while a WDRinstruction is being synchronized will be ignored.
19.3.7 Configuration Change Protection
This peripheral has registers that are under Configuration Change Protection (CCP). To write to these registers, a
certain key must first be written to the CPU.CCP register, followed by a write access to the protected bits within four
CPU instructions.
Attempting to write to a protected register without following the appropriate CCP unlock sequence leaves the
protected register unchanged.
The following registers are under CCP:

Overview
The flexible 16-bit PWM Timer/Counter type A (TCA) provides accurate program execution timing, frequency and
waveform generation, and command execution.
A TCA consists of a base counter and a set of compare channels. The base counter can be used to count clock
cycles or events or let events control how it counts clock cycles. It has direction control and period setting that can
be used for timing. The compare channels can be used together with the base counter to perform a compare match
control, frequency generation, and pulse-width waveform modulation.
Depending on the mode of operation, the counter is cleared, reloaded, incremented, or decremented at each timer/
counter clock or event input.
A timer/counter can be clocked and timed from the peripheral clock, with optional prescaling, or from the Event
System. The Event System can also be used for direction control or to synchronize operations.
By default, the TCA is a 16-bit timer/counter. The timer/counter has a Split mode feature that splits it into two 8-bit
timer/counters with three compare channels each.
A block diagram of the 16-bit timer/counter with closely related peripheral modules (in grey) is shown in the figure
below.

TCA - 16-bit Timer/Counter Type A
The Counter (TCAn.CNT) register, Period and Compare (TCAn.PER and TCAn.CMPn) registers, and their
corresponding buffer registers (TCAn.PERBUF and TCAn.CMPnBUF) are 16-bit registers. All buffer registers have a
Buffer Valid (BV) flag that indicates when the buffer contains a new value.
During normal operation, the counter value is continuously compared to zero and the period (PER) value to
determine whether the counter has reached TOP or BOTTOM. The counter value can also be compared to the
TCAn.CMPn registers.
The timer/counter can generate interrupt requests, events, or change the waveform output after being triggered by
the Counter (TCAn.CNT) register reaching TOP, BOTTOM, or CMPn. The interrupt requests, events, or waveform
output changes will occur on the next CLK_TCA cycle after the triggering.
CLK_TCA is either the prescaled peripheral clock or events from the Event System, as shown in the figure below.

TCA - 16-bit Timer/Counter Type A
In general, the term timer is used when the timer/counter is counting periodic clock ticks. The term counter is used
when the input signal has sporadic or irregular ticks. The latter can be the case when counting events.
20.3.2 Initialization
To start using the timer/counter in basic mode, follow these steps:
1. Write a TOP value to the Period (TCAn.PER) register.
2. Enable the peripheral by writing a ‘1’ to the ENABLE bit in the Control A (TCAn.CTRLA) register.
The counter will start counting clock ticks according to the prescaler setting in the Clock Select (CLKSEL) bit
field in the TCAn.CTRLA register.
3. Optional: By writing a ‘1’ to the Enable Count on Event Input (CNTEI) bit in the Event Control (TCAn.EVCTRL)
register, events are counted instead of clock ticks.
4. The counter value can be read from the Counter (CNT) bit field in the Counter (TCAn.CNT) register.
20.3.3 Operation
20.3.3.1 Normal Operation
In normal operation the counter is counting clock ticks in the direction selected by the Direction (DIR) bit in the
Control E (TCAn.CTRLE) register until it reaches TOP or BOTTOM. The clock ticks are given by the peripheral clock
(CLK_PER), prescaled according to the Clock Select (CLKSEL) bit field in the Control A (TCAn.CTRLA) register.
When TOP is reached while the counter is counting up, the counter will wrap to ‘0’ at the next clock tick. When
counting down, the counter is reloaded with the Period (TCAn.PER) register value when the BOTTOM is reached.

It is possible to change the counter value in the Counter (TCAn.CNT) register when the counter is running. The write
access to TCAn.CNT register has higher priority than count, clear or reload, and will be immediate. The direction
of the counter can also be changed during normal operation by writing to the Direction (DIR) bit in the Control E
(TCAn.CTRLE) register.
20.3.3.2 Double Buffering
The Period (TCAn.PER) register value and the Compare n (TCAn.CMPn) register values are all double-buffered
(TCAn.PERBUF and TCAn.CMPnBUF).
Each buffer register has a Buffer Valid (BV) flag (PERBV, CMPnBV) in the Control F (TCAn.CTRLF) register, which
indicates that the buffer register contains a valid (new) value that can be copied into the corresponding Period or
Compare register. When the Period register and Compare n registers are used for a compare operation, the BV flag
is set when data are written to the buffer register and cleared on an UPDATE condition. This is shown for a Compare
(CMPn) register in the figure below.

Both the TCAn.CMPn and TCAn.CMPnBUF registers are available as I/O registers. This allows the initialization and

20.3.3.3 Changing the Period
The Counter period is changed by writing a new TOP value to the Period (TCAn.PER) register.
No Buffering: If double-buffering is not used, any period update is immediate.

A counter wrap-around can occur in any mode of operation when counting up without buffering, as the TCAn.CNT
and TCAn.PER registers are continuously compared. If a new TOP value is written to TCAn.PER that is lower than
the current TCAn.CNT, the counter will wrap first, before a compare match occurs.

With Buffering: When double-buffering is used, the buffer can be written at any time and still maintain the correct
operation. The TCAn.PER is always updated on the UPDATE condition, as shown for dual-slope operation in the
figure below. This prevents wrap-around and the generation of odd waveforms.

20.3.3.4 Compare Channel
Each Compare Channel n continuously compares the counter value (TCAn.CNT) with the Compare n (TCAn.CMPn)
register. If TCAn.CNT equals TCAn.CMPn the Comparator n signals a match. The match will set the Compare
Channel’s interrupt flag at the next timer clock cycle, and the optional interrupt is generated.
The Compare n Buffer (TCAn.CMPnBUF) register provides double-buffer capability equivalent to that for the period
buffer. The double-buffering synchronizes the update of the TCAn.CMPn register with the buffer value to either the
TOP or BOTTOM of the counting sequence, according to the UPDATE condition. The synchronization prevents the
occurrence of odd-length, non-symmetrical pulses for glitch-free output.
The value in CMPnBUF is moved to CMPn at the UPDATE condition and is compared to the counter value
(TCAn.CNT) from the next count.
20.3.3.4.1 Waveform Generation
The compare channels can be used for waveform generation on the corresponding port pins. The following
requirements must be met to make the waveform visible on the connected port pin:
1. A Waveform Generation mode must be selected by writing the Waveform Generation Mode (WGMODE) bit
field in the TCAn.CTRLB register.
2. The compare channels used must be enabled (CMPnEN = 1in TCAn.CTRLB). This will override the output
value for the corresponding pin. An alternative pin can be selected by configuring the Port Multiplexer
(PORTMUX). Refer to the PORTMUX section for details.
3. The direction for the associated port pin n must be configured in the Port peripheral as an output.
4. Optional: Enable the inverted waveform output for the associated port pin n. Refer to the PORT section for
details.
20.3.3.4.2 Frequency (FRQ) Waveform Generation
For frequency generation, the period time (T) is controlled by the TCAn.CMP0 register instead of the Period
(TCAn.PER) register. The corresponding waveform generator output is toggled on each compare match between
the TCAn.CNT and TCAn.CMPn registers.

where N represents the prescaler divider used (see the CLKSEL bit field in the TCAn.CTRLA register), and fCLK_PER
is the peripheral clock frequency.
The maximum frequency of the waveform generated is half of the peripheral clock frequency (fCLK_PER/2) when
TCAn.CMP0 is written to 0x0000 and no prescaling is used (N = 1, CLKSEL = 0x0in TCAn.CTRLA).
Use the TCAn.CMP1 and TCAn.CMP2 registers to get additional waveform outputs WOn. The waveforms WOn can
either be identical or offset to WO0. The offset can be influenced by TCAn.CMPn, TCAn.CNT and the count direction.
The offset in seconds tOffset can be calculated using the equations in the table below. The equations are only valid
when CMPn<CMP0.

20.3.3.4.3 Single-Slope PWM Generation
For single-slope Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) generation, the period (T) is controlled by the TCAn.PER register,
while the values of the TCAn.CMPn registers control the duty cycles of the generated waveforms. The figure below
shows how the counter counts from BOTTOM to TOP and then restarts from BOTTOM. The waveform generator
output is set at BOTTOM and cleared on the compare match between the TCAn.CNT and TCAn.CMPn registers.
CMPn = BOTTOM will produce a static low signal on WOn while CMPn > TOP will produce a static high signal on
WOn.

1. The representation in the figure above is valid when CMPn is updated using CMPnBUF.
2. For single-slope Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) generation, the counter counting from TOP to BOTTOM is not
supported.
The TCAn.PER register defines the PWM resolution. The minimum resolution is 2 bits (TCAn.PER = 0x0003), and
the maximum resolution is 16 bits (TCAn.PER = MAX).
The following equation calculates the exact resolution in bits for single-slope PWM (RPWM_SS):

The single-slope PWM frequency (fPWM_SS) depends on the period setting (TCAn.PER), the peripheral clock
frequency fCLK_PER and the TCA prescaler (the CLKSEL bit field in the TCAn.CTRLA register). It is calculated by
the following equation where N represents the prescaler divider used:

20.3.3.4.4 Dual-Slope PWM
For the dual-slope PWM generation, the period (T) is controlled by TCAn.PER, while the values of TCAn.CMPn
control the duty cycle of the WG output.
The figure below shows how, for dual-slope PWM, the counter repeatedly counts from BOTTOM to TOP and
then from TOP to BOTTOM. The waveform generator output is set at BOTTOM, cleared on compare match when
up-counting, and set on compare match when down-counting.
CMPn = BOTTOM produces a static low signal on WOn, while CMPn = TOP produces a static high signal on WOn.

The following equation calculates the exact resolution in bits for dual-slope PWM (RPWM_DS):

log 2
The PWM frequency depends on the period setting in the TCAn.PER register, the peripheral clock frequency

the following equation:
f
CLK_PER
f

PWM_DS
2N ⋅ PER
N represents the prescaler divider used.
Using dual-slope PWM results in approximately half the maximum operation frequency compared to single-slope
PWM operation, due to twice the number of timer increments per period.
20.3.3.4.5 Port Override for Waveform Generation
To make the waveform generation available on the port pins, the corresponding port pin direction must be set
as output (PORTx.DIR[n] = 1). The TCA will override the port pin values when the compare channel is enabled
(CMPnEN = 1in the TCAn.CTRLB register), and a Waveform Generation mode is selected.
The figure below shows the port override for TCA. The timer/counter compare channel will override the port pin
output value (PORTx.OUT) on the corresponding port pin. Enabling inverted I/O on the port pin (INVEN = 1in the
PORTx.PINnCTRL register) inverts the corresponding WG output.

TCA - 16-bit Timer/Counter Type A
20.3.3.5 Timer/Counter Commands
A set of commands can be issued by software to immediately change the state of the peripheral. These commands
give direct control of the UPDATE, RESTART and RESET signals. A command is issued by writing the respective
value to the Command (CMD) bit field in the Control E (TCAn.CTRLESET) register.
An UPDATE command has the same effect as when an UPDATE condition occurs, except that the UPDATE
command is not affected by the state of the Lock Update (LUPD) bit in the Control E (TCAn.CTRLE) register.
The software can force a restart of the current waveform period by issuing a RESTART command. In this case, the
counter, direction, and all compare outputs are set to ‘0’.
A RESET command will set all timer/counter registers to their initial values. A RESET command can be issued only
when the timer/counter is not running (ENABLE = 0in the TCAn.CTRLA register).
20.3.3.6 Split Mode - Two 8-Bit Timer/Counters
Split Mode Overview
To double the number of timers and PWM channels in the TCA, a Split mode is provided. In this Split mode, the 16-bit
timer/counter acts as two separate 8-bit timers, which each have three compare channels for PWM generation. The
Split mode will only work with single-slope down-count. Event controlled operation is not supported in Split mode.
The figure below shows single-slope PWM generation in Split mode. The waveform generator output is cleared at
BOTTOM, and set on compare match between the counter value (TCAn.CNT) and the Compare n (TCAn.CMPn)
register.

Split Mode Initialization
When shifting between Normal mode and Split mode, the functionality of some registers and bits changes, but their
values do not. For this reason, disabling the peripheral (ENABLE = 0in the TCAn.CTRLA register) and doing a
hard Reset (CMD = RESET in the TCAn.CTRLESET register) is recommended when changing the mode to avoid
unexpected behavior.
To start using the timer/counter in basic Split mode after a hard Reset, follow these steps:
1. Enable Split mode by writing a ‘1’ to the Split mode enable (SPLITM) bit in the Control D (TCAn.CTRLD)
register.
2. Write a TOP value to the Period (TCAn.PER) registers.
3. Enable the peripheral by writing a ‘1’ to the Enable (ENABLE) bit in the Control A (TCAn.CTRLA) register.
The counter will start counting clock ticks according to the prescaler setting in the Clock Select (CLKSEL) bit
field in the TCAn.CTRLA register.
4. The counter values can be read from the Counter bit field in the Counter (TCAn.CNT) registers.

Notes:ꢀ
1. Event inputs are not used in Split mode.
2. Event actions with level input detection only work reliably if the event frequency is less than the timer’s
frequency.
The specific actions described in the table above are selected by writing to the Event Action (EVACT) bit field in the
Event Control (TCAn.EVCTRL) register. Input events are enabled by writing a ‘1’ to the Enable Count on Event Input
(CNTEI) bit in the Event Control (TCAn.EVCTRL) register.

An interrupt source is enabled or disabled by writing to the corresponding enable bit in the peripheral’s Interrupt
Control (peripheral.INTCTRL) register.
An interrupt request is generated when the corresponding interrupt source is enabled, and the interrupt flag is set.
The interrupt request remains active until the interrupt flag is cleared. See the peripheral’s INTFLAGS register for
details on how to clear interrupt flags.

condition will clear the LUPD bit.
It will remain cleared until the next UPDATE condition, where the buffer values will be transferred to the CMPn

No waveform generation is performed in the Normal mode of operation. For all other modes, the waveform generator
output will only be directed to the port pins if the corresponding CMPnEN bit has been set. The port pin direction must
be set as output.

The CMPnOV bits allow direct access to the waveform generator’s output compare value when the timer/counter is
not enabled. This is used to set or clear the WG output value when the timer/counter is not running.
Note:ꢀ When the output is connected to the pad, overriding these bits will not work unless the CMPnEN bits in
the TCAn.CTRLB register have been set. If the output is connected to CCL, the CMPnEN bits in the TCAn.CTRLB
register are bypassed.

Overview
The capabilities of the 16-bit Timer/Counter type B (TCB) include frequency and waveform generation and input
capture on event with time and frequency measurement of digital signals. The TCB consists of a base counter and
control logic that can be set in one of eight different modes, each mode providing unique functionality. The base
counter is clocked by the peripheral clock with optional prescaling.

TCB - 16-Bit Timer/Counter Type B
The Clock Select (CLKSEL) bit field in the Control A (TCBn.CTRLA) register selects one of the prescaler outputs
directly as the clock (CLK_TCB) input.
Setting the timer/counter to use the clock from a TCAn allows the timer/counter to run in sync with that TCAn.
By using the EVSYS, any event source, such as an external clock signal on any I/O pin, may be used as a control
logic input. When an event action controlled operation is used, the clock selection must be set to use an event
channel as the counter input.

The counter reaches TOP when it becomes equal to the highest value in the count sequence
Count (TCBn.CNT) register value

CCMP
Capture/Compare (TCBn.CCMP) register value
Note:ꢀ In general, the term ‘timer’ is used when the timer/counter is counting periodic clock ticks. The term ‘counter’
is used when the input signal has sporadic or irregular ticks.
21.3.2 Initialization
By default, the TCB is in Periodic Interrupt mode. Follow these steps to start using it:
1. Write a TOP value to the Compare/Capture (TCBn.CCMP) register.
2. Optional: Write the Compare/Capture Output Enable (CCMPEN) bit in the Control B (TCBn.CTRLB) register
to ‘1’. This will make the waveform output available on the corresponding pin, overriding the value in the
corresponding PORT output register.
3. Enable the counter by writing a ‘1’ to the ENABLE bit in the Control A (TCBn.CTRLA) register.
The counter will start counting clock ticks according to the prescaler setting in the Clock Select (CLKSEL) bit
field in the Control A (TCBn.CTRLA) register.
4. The counter value can be read from the Count (TCBn.CNT) register. The peripheral will generate a CAPT
interrupt and event when the CNT value reaches TOP.
4.1.
If the Compare/Capture register is modified to a value lower than the current Count register, the
peripheral will count to MAX and wrap around.
21.3.3 Operation
21.3.3.1 Modes
The timer can be configured to run in one of the eight different modes described in the sections below. The event
pulse needs to be longer than one system clock cycle to ensure edge detection.

TCB - 16-Bit Timer/Counter Type B
21.3.3.1.1 Periodic Interrupt Mode
In the Periodic Interrupt mode, the counter counts to the capture value and restarts from BOTTOM. A CAPT interrupt
and event is generated when the counter is equal to TOP. If TOP is updated to a value lower than count upon
reaching MAX, the counter restarts from BOTTOM.

21.3.3.1.2 Time-Out Check Mode
In the Time-Out Check mode, the peripheral starts counting on the first signal edge and stops on the next signal
edge detected on the event input channel. Start or Stop edge is determined by the Event Edge (EDGE) bit in the
Event Control (TCBn.EVCTRL) register. If the Count (TCBn.CNT) register reaches TOP before the second edge, a
CAPT interrupt and event will be generated. In Freeze state, after a Stop edge is detected, the counter will restart
on a new Start edge. If TOP is updated to a value lower than the Count (TCBn.CNT) register upon reaching MAX
the counter restarts from BOTTOM. Reading the Count (TCBn.CNT) register or Compare/Capture (TCBn.CCMP)
register, or writing the Run (RUN) bit in the Status (TCBn.STATUS) register in Freeze state will have no effect.
This mode requires TCB to be configured as an event user and is explained in the Events section.

21.3.3.1.7 Single-Shot Mode
The Single-Shot mode can be used to generate a pulse with a duration defined by the Compare (TCBn.CCMP)
register every time a rising or falling edge is observed on a connected event channel.
When the counter is stopped, the output pin is driven to low. If an event is detected on the connected event channel,
the timer will reset and start counting from BOTTOM to TOP while driving its output high. The RUN bit in the Status
(TCBn.STATUS) register can be read to see if the counter is counting or not. When the Counter register reaches the
CCMP register value, the counter will stop, and the output pin will go low for at least one prescaler cycle. A new event
arriving during this time will be ignored. There is a two clock-cycle delay from when the event is received until the
output is set high. When the EDGE bit of the TCB.EVCTRL register is written to ‘1’, any edge can trigger the start of
the counter. If the EDGE bit is ‘0’, only positive edges trigger the start.
The counter will start counting as soon as the module is enabled, even without triggering an event. This is prevented
by writing TOP to the Counter register. Similar behavior is seen if the Event Edge (EDGE) bit in the Event Control
(TCBn.EVCTRL) register is ‘1’ while the module is enabled. Writing TOP to the Counter register prevents this as well.
If the Event Asynchronous (ASYNC) bit in the Control B (TCBn.CTRLB) register is written to ‘1’, the timer will react
asynchronously to an incoming event. An edge on the event will immediately cause the output signal to be set. The
counter will still start counting two clock cycles after the event is received.
This mode requires TCB to be configured as an event user and is explained in the Events section.

21.3.3.1.8 8-Bit PWM Mode
The TCB can be configured to run in 8-bit PWM mode, where each of the register pairs in the 16-bit Compare/
Capture (TCBn.CCMPH and TCBn.CCMPL) register are used as individual Compare registers. The period (T) is
controlled by CCMPL, while CCMPH controls the duty cycle of the waveform. The counter will continuously count
from BOTTOM to CCMPL, and the output will be set at BOTTOM and cleared when the counter reaches CCMPH.
CCMPH is the number of cycles for which the output will be driven high. CCMPL+1 is the period of the output pulse.

21.3.3.2 Output
Timer synchronization and output logic level are dependent on the selected Timer Mode (CNTMODE) bit field in
Control B (TCBn.CTRLB) register. In Single-Shot mode, the timer/counter can be configured so that the signal
generation happens asynchronously to an incoming event (ASYNC = 1in TCBn.CTRLB). The output signal is then
set immediately at the incoming event instead of being synchronized to the TCB clock. Even though the output is
immediately set, it will take two to three CLK_TCB cycles before the counter starts counting.

TCB - 16-Bit Timer/Counter Type B
Writing the Compare/Capture Output Enable (CCMPEN) bit in TCBn.CTRLB to ‘1’ enables the waveform output,
which will make the waveform output available on the corresponding pin, overriding the value in the corresponding
PORT output register.
The different configurations and their impact on the output are listed in the table below.

It is not recommended to change modes while the peripheral is enabled, as this can produce an unpredictable
output. There is a possibility that an interrupt flag is set during the timer configuration. It is recommended to clear the
Timer/Counter Interrupt Flags (TCBn.INTFLAGS) register after configuring the peripheral.
21.3.3.3 Noise Canceler
The Noise Canceler improves noise immunity by using a simple digital filter scheme. When the Noise Filter (FILTER)
bit in the Event Control (TCBn.EVCTRL) register is enabled, the peripheral monitors the event channel and keeps a
record of the last four observed samples. If four consecutive samples are equal, the input is considered to be stable,
and the signal is fed to the edge detector.
When enabled, the Noise Canceler introduces an additional delay of four system clock cycles between a change
applied to the input and the update of the Input Compare register.
The Noise Canceler uses the system clock and is, therefore, not affected by the prescaler.
21.3.3.4 Synchronized with Timer/Counter Type A
The TCB can be configured to use the clock (CLK_TCA) of a Timer/Counter type A (TCAn) by writing to the Clock
Select (CLKSEL) bit field in the Control A register (TCBn.CTRLA). In this setting, the TCB will count on the same
clock source as selected in TCAn.
When the Synchronize Update (SYNCUPD) bit in the Control A (TCBn.CTRLA) register is written to ‘1’, the TCB
counter will restart when the TCAn counter restarts.
21.3.4 Events
The TCB can generate the events described in the following table:

If the Capture Event Input Enable (CAPTEI) bit in the Event Control (TCBn.EVCTRL) register is written to ‘1’,
incoming events will result in an event action as defined by the Event Edge (EDGE) bit in the Event Control
(TCBn.EVCTRL) register and the Timer Mode (CNTMODE) bit field in Control B (TCBn.CTRLB) register. The event
needs to last for at least one CLK_PER cycle to be recognized.
If the Asynchronous mode is enabled for Single-Shot mode, the event is edge-triggered and will capture changes on
the event input shorter than one system clock cycle.

CAPT TCB interrupt
Depending on the operating mode. See the description of the CAPT bit in the
TCBn.INTFLAG register.
When an interrupt condition occurs, the corresponding interrupt flag is set in the peripheral’s Interrupt Flags
(peripheral.INTFLAGS) register.
An interrupt source is enabled or disabled by writing to the corresponding enable bit in the peripheral’s Interrupt
Control (peripheral.INTCTRL) register.
An interrupt request is generated when the corresponding interrupt source is enabled, and the interrupt flag is set.
The interrupt request remains active until the interrupt flag is cleared. See the peripheral’s INTFLAGS register for
details on how to clear interrupt flags.
21.3.6 Sleep Mode Operation
TCBn is, by default, disabled in Standby sleep mode. It will be halted as soon as the sleep mode is entered.
The module can stay fully operational in the Standby sleep mode if the Run Standby (RUNSTDBY) bit in the
TCBn.CTRLA register is written to ‘1’.
All operations are halted in Power-Down sleep mode.

Property:ꢀ
The TCBn.CCMPL and TCBn.CCMPH register pair represents the 16-bit value TCBn.CCMP. The low byte [7:0]
(suffix L) is accessible at the original offset. The high byte [15:8] (suffix H) can be accessed at offset + 0x01.
This register has different functions depending on the mode of operation:
•
•
•
For Capture operation, these registers contain the captured value of the counter at the time the capture occurs
In Periodic Interrupt/Time-Out and Single-Shot mode, this register acts as the TOP value
In 8-bit PWM mode, TCBn.CCMPL and TCBn.CCMPH act as two independent registers: The period of the
waveform is controlled by CCMPL, while CCMPH controls the duty cycle.

Overview
The RTC peripheral offers two timing functions: The Real-Time Counter (RTC) and a Periodic Interrupt Timer (PIT).
The PIT functionality can be enabled independently of the RTC functionality.
RTC - Real-Time Counter
The RTC counts (prescaled) clock cycles in a Counter register and compares the content of the Counter register to a
Period register and a Compare register.
The RTC can generate both interrupts and events on compare match or overflow. It will generate a compare interrupt
and/or event at the first count after the counter value equals the Compare register value, and an overflow interrupt
and/or event at the first count after the counter value equals the Period register value. The overflow will reset the
counter value to zero.
The RTC peripheral typically runs continuously, including in Low-Power sleep modes, to keep track of time. It can
wake up the device from sleep modes, and/or interrupt the device at regular intervals.
The reference clock is typically the 32.768 kHz output from an external crystal. The RTC can also be clocked from an
external clock signal, the 32 kHz Internal Ultra Low-Power Oscillator (OSCULP32K), or the OSCULP32K divided by
32.
The RTC peripheral includes a 15-bit programmable prescaler that can scale down the reference clock before it
reaches the counter. A wide range of resolutions and time-out periods can be configured for the RTC. With a 32.768
kHz clock source, the maximum resolution is 30.5 μs, and time-out periods can be up to two seconds. With a
resolution of 1s, the maximum time-out period is more than 18 hours (65536 seconds).
The RTC also supports crystal error correction when operated using external crystal selection. An externally
calibrated value will be used for correction. The RTC can be adjusted by software with an accuracy of ±1 PPM,
and the maximum adjustment is ±127 PPM. The RTC correction operation will either speed up (by skipping count) or
slow down (by adding extra count) the prescaler to account for the crystal error.
PIT - Periodic Interrupt Timer
The PIT uses the same clock source (CLK_RTC) as the RTC function and can generate an interrupt request or a
level event on every nth clock period. The n can be selected from {4, 8, 16,... 32768} for interrupts, and from {64, 128,
256,... 8192} for events.

Clocks
The peripheral clock (CLK_PER) is required to be at least four times faster than the RTC clock (CLK_RTC) for
reading the counter value, regardless of the prescaler setting.
A 32.768 kHz crystal can be connected to the TOSC1 or TOSC2 pins, along with any required load capacitors.
Alternatively, an external digital clock can be connected to the TOSC1 pin.
RTC Functional Description
The RTC peripheral offers two timing functions: The Real-Time Counter (RTC) and a Periodic Interrupt Timer (PIT).
This subsection describes the RTC.
22.4.1 Initialization
Before enabling the RTC peripheral and the desired actions (interrupt requests and output events), the source clock
for the RTC counter must be configured to operate the RTC.
22.4.1.1 Configure the Clock CLK_RTC
To configure the CLK_RTC, follow these steps:
1. Configure the desired oscillator to operate as required, in the Clock Controller (CLKCTRL) peripheral.
2. Write the Clock Select (CLKSEL) bit field in the Clock Selection (RTC.CLKSEL) register accordingly.

RTC - Real-Time Counter
The CLK_RTC clock configuration is used by both RTC and PIT functionalities.
22.4.1.2 Configure RTC
To operate the RTC, follow these steps:
1. Set the compare value in the Compare (RTC.CMP) register, and/or the overflow value in the Period
(RTC.PER) register.
2. Enable the desired interrupts by writing to the respective interrupt enable bits (CMP, OVF) in the Interrupt
Control (RTC.INTCTRL) register.
3. Configure the RTC internal prescaler by writing the desired value to the Prescaler (PRESCALER) bit field in
the Control A (RTC.CTRLA) register.
4. Enable the RTC by writing a ‘1’ to the RTC Peripheral Enable (RTCEN) bit in the RTC.CTRLA register.
Note:ꢀ The RTC peripheral is used internally during device start-up. Always check the Synchronization Busy bits
in the Status (RTC.STATUS) and Periodic Interrupt Timer Status (RTC.PITSTATUS) registers, and on the initial
configuration.
22.4.2 Operation - RTC
22.4.2.1 Enabling and Disabling
The RTC is enabled by writing the RTC Peripheral Enable (RTCEN) bit in the Control A (RTC.CTRLA) register to ‘1’.
The RTC is disabled by writing the RTC Peripheral Enable (RTCEN) bit in RTC.CTRLA to ‘0’.
22.5
PIT Functional Description
The RTC peripheral offers two timing functions: The Real-Time Counter (RTC) and a Periodic Interrupt Timer (PIT).
This subsection describes the PIT.
22.5.1 Initialization
To operate the PIT, follow these steps:
1. Configure the RTC clock CLK_RTC as described in section 22.4.1.1 Configure the Clock CLK_RTC.
2. Enable the interrupt by writing a ‘1’ to the Periodic Interrupt (PI) bit in the PIT Interrupt Control
(RTC.PITINTCTRL) register.
3. Select the period for the interrupt by writing the desired value to the Period (PERIOD) bit field in the Periodic
Interrupt Timer Control A (RTC.PITCTRLA) register.
4. Enable the PIT by writing a ‘1’ to the Periodic Interrupt Timer Enable (PITEN) bit in the RTC.PITCTRLA
register.
Note:ꢀ The RTC peripheral is used internally during device start-up. Always check the Synchronization Busy bits in
the RTC.STATUS and RTC.PITSTATUS registers, and on the initial configuration.
22.5.2 Operation - PIT
22.5.2.1 Enabling and Disabling
The PIT is enabled by writing the Periodic Interrupt Timer Enable (PITEN) bit in the Periodic Interrupt Timer Control
A (RTC.PITCTRLA) register to ‘1’. The PIT is disabled by writing the Periodic Interrupt Timer Enable (PITEN) bit in
RTC.PITCTRLA to ‘0’.
22.5.2.2 PIT Interrupt Timing
Timing of the First Interrupt
Both PIT and RTC functions are running from the same counter inside the prescaler and can be configured as
described below:
•
•
The RTC interrupt period is configured by writing the Period (RTC.PER) register
The PIT interrupt period is configured by writing the Period (PERIOD) bit field in Periodic Interrupt Timer Control
A (RTC.PITCTRLA) register

ATmega3208/3209
RTC - Real-Time Counter
The prescaler is OFF when both functions are OFF (RTC Peripheral Enable (RTCEN) bit in RTC.CTRLA and the
Periodic Interrupt Timer Enable (PITEN) bit in RTC.PITCTRLA are ‘0’), but it is running (that is, its internal counter is
counting) when either function is enabled. For this reason, the timing of the first PIT interrupt and the first RTC count
tick will be unknown (anytime between enabling and a full period).
Continuous Operation
After the first interrupt, the PIT will continue toggling every ½ PIT period resulting in a full PIT period signal.

RTC - Real-Time Counter
Example 22-1.ꢀPIT Timing Diagram for PERIOD = CYC16
For PERIOD = CYC16 in RTC.PITCTRLA, the PIT output effectively follows the state of the
prescaler counter bit 3, so the resulting interrupt output has a period of 16 CLK_RTC cycles.
The time between writing PITEN to ‘1’ and the first PIT interrupt can vary between virtually zero
and a full PIT period of 16 CLK_RTC cycles. The precise delay between enabling the PIT and its
first output depends on the prescaler’s counting phase: The first interrupt shown below is produced
by writing PITEN to ‘1’ at any time inside the leading time window.

Crystal Error Correction
The prescaler for the RTC and PIT can do internal frequency correction of the crystal clock by using the PPM error
value from the Crystal Frequency Calibration (CALIB) register when the Frequency Correction Enable (CORREN) bit
in the RTC.CTRLA register is ‘1’.
The CALIB register must be written by the user, based on the information about the frequency error. The correction
operation is performed by adding or removing a number of cycles equal to the value given in the Error Correction
Value (ERROR) bit field in the CALIB register spread throughout a million-cycle interval.
The correction of the clock will be reflected in the RTC count value available through the Count (RTC.CNT) registers
or in the PIT intervals.
If disabling the correction feature, an ongoing correction cycle will be completed before the function is disabled.
Note:ꢀ If using this feature with a negative correction, the minimum prescaler configuration is DIV2.
22.7
Events
The RTC can generate the events described in the following table:

When an interrupt condition occurs, the corresponding interrupt flag is set in the peripheral’s Interrupt Flags
(peripheral.INTFLAGS) register.
An interrupt source is enabled or disabled by writing to the corresponding enable bit in the peripheral’s Interrupt
Control (peripheral.INTCTRL) register.
An interrupt request is generated when the corresponding interrupt source is enabled, and the interrupt flag is set.
The interrupt request remains active until the interrupt flag is cleared. See the peripheral’s INTFLAGS register for
details on how to clear interrupt flags.

The RTC has two INTFLAGS registers: RTC.INTFLAGS and RTC.PITINTFLAGS.
The RTC has two INTCTRL registers: RTC.INTCTRL and RTC.PITINTCTRL.
22.9
Sleep Mode Operation
The RTC will continue to operate in Idle sleep mode. It will run in Standby sleep mode if the Run in Standby
(RUNSTDBY) bit in RTC.CTRLA is set.
The PIT will continue to operate in any sleep mode.
22.10 Synchronization
Both the RTC and the PIT are asynchronous, operating from a different clock source (CLK_RTC) independently of
the peripheral clock (CLK_PER). For Control and Count register updates, it will take some RTC and/or peripheral
clock cycles before an updated register value is available in a register or until a configuration change affects the RTC
or PIT, respectively. This synchronization time is described for each register in the Register Description section.
For some RTC registers, a Synchronization Busy (CMPBUSY, PERBUSY, CNTBUSY, CTRLABUSY) flag is available
in the Status (RTC.STATUS) register.
For the RTC.PITCTRLA register, a Synchronization Busy (CTRLBUSY) flag is available in the Periodic Interrupt
Timer Status (RTC.PITSTATUS) register.
Check these flags before writing to the mentioned registers.
22.11 Debug Operation
If the Debug Run (DBGRUN) bit in the Debug Control (RTC.DBGCTRL) register is ‘1’, the RTC will continue normal
operation. If DBGRUN is ‘0’ and the CPU is halted, the RTC will halt the operation and ignore any incoming events.
If the Debug Run (DBGRUN) bit in the Periodic Interrupt Timer Debug Control (RTC.PITDBGCTRL) register is ‘1’, the
PIT will continue normal operation. If DBGRUN is ‘0’ in the Debug mode and the CPU is halted, the PIT output will
be low. When the PIT output is high at the time, a new positive edge occurs to set the interrupt flag when restarting
from a break. The result is an additional PIT interrupt that does not happen during normal operation. If the PIT output
is low at the break, the PIT will resume low without additional interrupt.

Overview
The Universal Synchronous and Asynchronous serial Receiver and Transmitter (USART) is a fast and flexible serial
communication peripheral. The USART supports several different modes of operation that can accommodate multiple
types of applications and communication devices. For example, the One-Wire Half-Duplex mode is useful when low
pin count applications are desired. The communication is frame-based, and the frame format can be customized to
support a wide range of standards.
The USART is buffered in both directions, enabling continued data transmission without any delay between frames.
Separate interrupts for receive and transmit completion allow fully interrupt-driven communication.
The transmitter consists of a two-level write buffer, a Shift register, and control logic for different frame formats. The
receiver consists of a two-level receive buffer and a Shift register. The status information of the received data is
available for error checking. Data and clock recovery units ensure robust synchronization and noise filtering during
asynchronous data reception.

23.3.2 Operation
23.3.2.1 Frame Formats
The USART data transfer is frame-based. A frame starts with a Start bit followed by one character of data bits. If
enabled, the Parity bit is inserted after the data bits and before the first Stop bit. After the Stop bit(s) of a frame, either
the next frame can follow immediately, or the communication line can return to the Idle (high) state. The USART
accepts all 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
The figure below illustrates the possible combinations of frame formats. Bits inside brackets are optional.

23.3.2.2.1 The Fractional Baud Rate Generator
In modes where the USART is not using the XCK input as a clock source, the fractional Baud Rate Generator is
used to generate the clock. Baud rate is given in terms of bits per second (bps) and is configured by writing the
USARTn.BAUD register. The baud rate (fBAUD) is generated by dividing the peripheral clock (fCLK_PER) by a division
factor decided by the BAUD register.
The fractional Baud Rate Generator features hardware that accommodates cases where fCLK_PER is not divisible by
fBAUD. Usually, this situation would lead to a rounding error. The fractional Baud Rate Generator expects the BAUD
register to contain the desired division factor left shifted by six bits, as implemented by the equations in Table 23-1.
The six Least Significant bits (LSbs) will then hold the fractional part of the desired divisor. Use the fractional part of
the BAUD register to dynamically adjust fBAUD to achieve a closer approximation to the desired baud rate.
Since the baud rate cannot be higher than fCLK_PER, the integer part of the BAUD register needs to be at least 1.
Since the result is left shifted by six bits, the corresponding minimum value of the BAUD register is 64. The valid
range is, therefore, 64 to 65535.
In Synchronous mode, only the 10-bit integer part of the BAUD register (BAUD[15:6]) determines the baud rate, and
the fractional part (BAUD[5:0]) must, therefore, be written to zero.
The table below lists equations for translating baud rates into input values for the BAUD register. The equations
consider fractional interpretation, so the BAUD values calculated with these equations can be written directly to
USARTn.BAUD without any additional scaling.

23.3.2.3 Data Transmission
The USART transmitter sends data by periodically driving the transmission line low. The data transmission is initiated
by loading the Transmit Data (USARTn.TXDATAL and USARTn.TXDATAH) registers with the data to be sent. The
data in the Transmit Data registers are moved to the TX Buffer once it is empty and onwards to the Shift register
once it is empty and ready to send a new frame. After the Shift register is loaded with data, the data frame will be
transmitted.
When the entire frame in the Shift register has been shifted out, and there are no new data present in the Transmit
Data registers or the TX Buffer, the Transmit Complete Interrupt Flag (the TXCIF bit in the USARTn.STATUS register)
is set, and the interrupt is generated if it is enabled.
The Transmit Data registers can only be written when the Data Register Empty Interrupt Flag (the DREIF bit in the
USARTn.STATUS register) is set, indicating that they are empty and ready for new data.
When using frames with fewer than eight bits, the Most Significant bits (MSb) written to the Transmit Data registers
are ignored. When the Character Size (CHSIZE) bit field in the Control C (USARTn.CTRLC) register is configured
to 9-bit (low byte first), the Transmit Data Register Low Byte (TXDATAL) must be written before the Transmit Data
Register High Byte (TXDATAH). When CHSIZE is configured to 9-bit (high byte first), TXDATAH must be written
before TXDATAL.
23.3.2.3.1 Disabling the Transmitter
When disabling the transmitter, the operation will not become effective until ongoing and pending transmissions are
completed. That is, when the Transmit Shift register, Transmit Data (USARTn.TXDATAL and USARTn.TXDATAH)
registers, and TX Buffer register do not contain data to be transmitted. When the transmitter is disabled, it will no
longer override the TXD pin, and the PORT module regains control of the pin. The pin is automatically configured as
an input by hardware regardless of its previous setting. The pin can now be used as a normal I/O pin with no port
override from the USART.
23.3.2.4 Data Reception
The USART receiver samples the reception line to detect and interpret the received data. The direction of the pin
must, therefore, be configured as an input by writing a ‘0’ to the corresponding bit in the Data Direction (PORTx.DIR)
register.
The receiver accepts data when a valid Start bit is detected. 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, and 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 Complete Interrupt Flag (the RXCIF bit in the USARTn.STATUS register) is set, and the interrupt is
generated if enabled.
The RXDATA registers are the part of the double-buffered RX buffer that can be read by the application software
when RXCIF is set. If only one frame has been received, the data and status bits for that frame are pushed to the
RXDATA registers directly. If two frames are present in the RX buffer, the RXDATA registers contain the data for the
oldest frame.
The buffer shifts out the data either when RXDATAL or RXDATAH is read, depending on the configuration. The
register, which does not lead to data being shifted, must be read first to be able to read both bytes before shifting.
When the Character Size (CHSIZE) bit field in the Control C (USARTn.CTRLC) register is configured to 9-bit (low
byte first), a read of RXDATAH shifts the receive buffer. Otherwise, RXDATAL shifts the buffer.
23.3.2.4.1 Receiver Error Flags
The USART receiver features error detection mechanisms that uncover any corruption of the transmission. These
mechanisms include the following:
•
•
Frame Error detection - controls whether the received frame is valid
Buffer Overflow detection - indicates data loss due to the receiver buffer being full and overwritten by the new
data
DS40002174C-page 288
Complete Datasheet
© 2021 Microchip Technology Inc.
ATmega3208/3209
USART - Universal Synchronous and Asynchrono...
•
Parity Error detection - checks the validity of the incoming frame by calculating its parity and comparing it to the
Parity bit
Each error detection mechanism controls one error flag that can be read in the RXDATAH register:
•
•
•
Frame Error (FERR)
Buffer Overflow (BUFOVF)
Parity Error (PERR)
The error flags are located in the RX buffer together with their corresponding frame. The RXDATAH register that
contains the error flags must be read before the RXDATAL register since reading the RXDATAL register will trigger
the RX buffer to shift out the RXDATA bytes.
Note:ꢀ If the Character Size (CHSIZE) bit field in the Control C (USARTn.CTRLC) register is set to nine bits, low
byte first (9BITL), the RXDATAH register will, instead of the RXDATAL register, trigger the RX buffer to shift out the
RXDATA bytes. The RXDATAL register must, in that case, be read before the RXDATAH register.
23.3.2.4.2 Disabling the Receiver
When disabling the receiver, the operation is immediate. The receiver buffer will be flushed, and data from ongoing
receptions will be lost.
23.3.2.4.3 Flushing the Receive Buffer
If the RX buffer has to be flushed during normal operation, repeatedly read the DATA location (USARTn.RXDATAH
and USARTn.RXDATAL registers) until the Receive Complete Interrupt Flag (the RXCIF bit in the
USARTn.RXDATAH register) is cleared.
23.3.3 Communication Modes
The USART is a flexible peripheral that supports multiple different communication protocols. The available modes of
operation can be split into two groups: Synchronous and asynchronous communication.
The synchronous communication relies on one device on the bus to be the host, providing the rest of the devices with
a clock signal through the XCK pin. All the devices use this common clock signal for both transmission and reception,
requiring no additional synchronization mechanism.
The device can be configured to run either as a host or a client on the synchronous bus.
The asynchronous communication does not use a common clock signal. Instead, it relies on the communicating
devices to be configured with the same baud rate. When receiving a transmission, the hardware synchronization
mechanisms are used to align the incoming transmission with the receiving device peripheral clock.
Four different modes of reception are available when communicating asynchronously. One of these modes can
receive transmissions at twice the normal speed, sampling only eight times per bit instead of the normal 16. The
other three operating modes use variations of synchronization logic, all receiving at normal speed.
23.3.3.1 Synchronous Operation
23.3.3.1.1 Clock Operation
The XCK pin direction controls whether the transmission clock is an input (Client mode) or an output (Host mode).
The corresponding port pin direction must be set to output for Host mode or input for Client mode (PORTx.DIRn). The
data input (on RXD) is sampled at the XCK clock edge, which is opposite the edge where data are transmitted (on
TXD), as shown in the figure below.

The I/O pin can be inverted by writing a ‘1’ to the Inverted I/O Enable (INVEN) bit in the Pin n Control register of the
port peripheral (PORTx.PINnCTRL). When using the inverted I/O setting for the corresponding XCK port pin, the XCK
clock edges used for sampling RxD and transmitting on TxD can be selected. If the inverted I/O is disabled (INVEN
= 0), the rising XCK clock edge represents the start of a new data bit, and the received data will be sampled at the
falling XCK clock edge. If inverted I/O is enabled (INVEN = 1), the falling XCK clock edge represents the start of a
new data bit, and the received data will be sampled at the rising XCK clock edge.
23.3.3.1.2 External Clock Limitations
When the USART is configured in Synchronous Client mode, the XCK signal must be provided externally by the
host device. Since the clock is provided externally, configuring the BAUD register will have no impact on the transfer
speed. Successful clock recovery requires the clock signal to be sampled at least twice for each rising and falling
edge. The maximum XCK speed in Synchronous Operation mode, fClient_XCK, is therefore limited by:
f
CLK_PER
f
<
Client_XCK
4
If the XCK clock has jitter, or if the high/low period duty cycle is not 50/50, the maximum XCK clock speed must be
reduced accordingly to ensure that XCK is sampled a minimum of two times for each edge.
23.3.3.1.3 USART in Host SPI Mode
The USART may be configured to function with multiple different communication interfaces, and one of these is the
Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI), where it can work as the host device. The SPI is a four-wire interface that enables a
host device to communicate with one or multiple clients.
Frame Formats
The serial frame for the USART in Host SPI mode always contains eight Data bits. The Data bits can be configured
to be transmitted with either the LSb or MSb first by writing to the Data Order (UDORD) bit in the Control C
(USARTn.CTRLC) register.
SPI does not use Start, Stop, or Parity bits, so the transmission frame can only consist of the Data bits.
Clock Generation
Being a host device in a synchronous communication interface, the USART in Host SPI mode must generate the
interface clock to be shared with the client devices. The interface clock is generated using the fractional Baud Rate
Generator, which is described in 23.3.2.2.1 The Fractional Baud Rate Generator.
Each Data bit is transmitted by pulling the data line high or low for one full clock period. The receiver will sample bits
in the middle of the transmitter hold period, as shown in the figure below. It also shows how the timing scheme can be
configured using the Inverted I/O Enable (INVEN) bit in the PORTx.PINnCTRL register and the USART Clock Phase
(UCPHA) bit in the USARTn.CTRLC register.

Data Transmission
Data transmission in Host SPI mode is functionally identical to the general USART operation, as described in
the Operation section. The transmitter interrupt flags and corresponding USART interrupts are also identical. See
23.3.2.3 Data Transmission for further description.
Data Reception
Data reception in Host SPI mode is identical in function to general USART operation as described in the Operation
section. The receiver interrupt flags and the corresponding USART interrupts are also identical, except for the
receiver error flags that are not in use and always read as ‘0’. See 23.3.2.4 Data Reception for further description.
USART in Host SPI Mode vs. SPI
The USART in Host SPI mode is fully compatible with a stand-alone SPI peripheral. Their data frame and timing
configurations are identical. Some SPI specific special features are, however, not supported with the USART in Host
SPI mode:
•

•
Write Collision Flag Protection
Double-Speed mode

23.3.3.2 Asynchronous Operation
23.3.3.2.1 Clock Recovery
Since there is no common clock signal when using Asynchronous mode, each communicating device generates
separate clock signals. These clock signals must be configured to run at the same baud rate for the communication
to take place. The devices, therefore, run at the same speed, but their timing is skewed in relation to each
other. To accommodate this, the USART features a hardware clock recovery unit which synchronizes the incoming
asynchronous serial frames with the internally generated baud rate clock.
The figure below illustrates the sampling process for the Start bit of an incoming frame. It shows the timing
scheme for both Normal and Double-Speed mode (the RXMODE bit field in the USARTn.CTRLB register configured
respectively to 0x00and 0x01). The sample rate for Normal mode is 16 times the baud rate, while the sample rate
for Double-Speed mode is eight times the baud rate (see 23.3.3.2.4 Double-Speed Operation for more details). The
horizontal arrows show the maximum synchronization error. Note that the maximum synchronization error is larger in
Double-Speed mode.

When the clock recovery logic detects a falling edge from the Idle (high) state to the Start bit (low), the Start
bit detection sequence is initiated. In the figure above, sample 1 denotes the first sample reading ‘0’. The clock
recovery logic then uses three subsequent samples (samples 8, 9, and 10 in Normal mode, and samples 4, 5, 6
in Double-Speed mode) to decide if a valid Start bit is received. If two or three samples read ‘0’, the Start bit is
accepted. The clock recovery unit is synchronized, and the data recovery can begin. If less than two samples read
‘0’, the Start bit is rejected. This process is repeated for each Start bit.
23.3.3.2.2 Data Recovery
As with clock recovery, the data recovery unit samples at a rate 8 or 16 times faster than the baud rate depending on
whether it is running in Double-Speed or Normal mode, respectively. The figure below shows the sampling process
for reading a bit in a received frame.

A majority voting technique is, like with clock recovery, used on the three center samples for deciding the logic level
of the received bit. The process is repeated for each bit until a complete frame is received.
The data recovery unit will only receive the first Stop bit while ignoring the rest if there are more. If the sampled Stop
bit is read ‘0’, the Frame Error flag will be set. The figure below shows the sampling of a Stop bit. It also shows the
earliest possible beginning of the next frame's Start bit.

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 the point marked (A) in the figure
above. For Double-Speed mode, the first low level must be delayed to point (B), being the first sample after the
majority vote samples. Point (C) marks a Stop bit of full length at the nominal baud rate.
23.3.3.2.3 Error Tolerance
The speed of the internally generated baud rate and the externally received data rate has to be identical, but, due
to natural clock source error, this is usually not the case. The USART is tolerant of such error, and the limits of this
tolerance make up what is sometimes known as the Operational Range.
The following tables list the operational range of the USART, being the maximum receiver baud rate error that can be
tolerated. Note that Normal-Speed mode has higher toleration of baud rate variations than Double-Speed mode.

23.3.3.2.4 Double-Speed Operation
The double-speed operation allows for higher baud rates under asynchronous operation with lower peripheral clock
frequencies. This operation mode is enabled by writing the RXMODE bit field in the Control B (USARTn.CTRLB)
register to 0x01.
When enabled, the baud rate for a given asynchronous baud rate setting will be doubled, as shown in the equations
in 23.3.2.2.1 The Fractional Baud Rate Generator. In this mode, the receiver will use half the number of samples
(reduced from 16 to 8) for data sampling and clock recovery. This requires a more accurate baud rate setting and
peripheral clock. See 23.3.3.2.3 Error Tolerance for more details.
23.3.3.2.5 Auto-Baud
The auto-baud feature lets the USART configure its BAUD register based on input from a communication device,
which allows the device to communicate autonomously with multiple devices communicating with different baud
rates. The USART peripheral features two auto-baud modes: Generic Auto-Baud mode and LIN Constrained Auto-
Baud mode.
Both auto-baud modes must receive an auto-baud frame, as seen in the figure below.

USART - Universal Synchronous and Asynchrono...
Figure 23-9.ꢀAuto-Baud Timing
Break Field
Sync Field
Tbit
8 Tbit
The break field is detected when 12 or more consecutive low cycles are sampled and notifies the USART that it
is about to receive the synchronization field. After the break field, when the Start bit of the synchronization field is
detected, a counter running at the peripheral clock speed is started. The counter is then incremented for the next
eight Tbit of the synchronization field. When all eight bits are sampled, the counter is stopped. The resulting counter
value is in effect the new BAUD register value.
When the USART Receive mode is set to GENAUTO (the RXMODE bit field in the USARTn.CTRLB register), the
Generic Auto-Baud mode is enabled. In this mode, one can set the Wait For Break (WFB) bit in the USARTn.STATUS
register to enable detection of a break field of any length (that is, also shorter than 12 cycles). This makes it possible
to set an arbitrary new baud rate without knowing the current baud rate. If the measured sync field results in a valid
BAUD value (0x0064- 0xFFFF), the BAUD register is updated.
When USART Receive mode is set to LINAUTO mode (the RXMODE bit field in the USARTn.CTRLB register),
it follows the LIN format. The WFB functionality of the Generic Auto-Baud mode is not compatible with the
LIN Constrained Auto-Baud mode, which means that the received signal must be low for 12 peripheral clock
cycles or more for a break field to be valid. When a break field has been detected, the USART expects the
following synchronization field character to be 0x55. The tolerance for the difference in baud rates between the
two synchronizing devices can be configured using the Auto-baud Window Size (ABW) bit field in the Control D
(USARTn.CTRLD) register. If any of these conditions are not met, the Inconsistent Sync Field Error Flag (the ISFIF
bit in the USARTn.STATUS register) is set, and the baud rate is unchanged.
23.3.3.2.6 Half-Duplex Operation
Half-duplex is a type of communication where two or more devices may communicate with each other, but only one at
a time. The USART can be configured to operate in the following half-duplex modes:
•
•
One-Wire mode
RS-485 mode
One-Wire Mode
One-Wire mode is enabled by setting the Loop-Back Mode Enable (LBME) bit in the USARTn.CTRLA register. This
will enable an internal connection between the TXD pin and the USART receiver, making the TXD pin a combined
TxD/RxD line. The RXD pin will be disconnected from the USART receiver and may be controlled by a different
peripheral.
In One-Wire mode, multiple devices can manipulate the TxD/RxD line at the same time. In the case where one
device drives the pin to a logical high level (VCC), and another device pulls the line low (GND), a short will occur. To
accommodate this, the USART features an Open-Drain mode (the ODME bit in the USARTn.CTRLB register), which
prevents the transmitter from driving a pin to a logical high level, thereby constraining it to only be able to pull it low.
Combining this function with the internal pull-up feature (the PULLUPEN bit in the PORTx.PINnCTRL register) will
let the line be held high through a pull-up resistor, allowing any device to pull it low. When the line is pulled low, the
current from VCC to GND will be limited by the pull-up resistor. The TXD pin is automatically set to output by hardware
when the Open-Drain mode is enabled.
When the USART is transmitting to the TxD/RxD line, it will also receive its transmission. This can be used to detect
overlapping transmissions by checking if the received data are the same as the transmitted data.
RS-485 Mode
RS-485 is a communication standard supported by the USART peripheral. It is a physical interface that defines the
setup of a communication circuit. Data are transmitted using differential signaling, making communication robust
against noise. RS-485 is enabled by writing to the RS485 bit field in the USARTn.CTRLA register.
The RS-485 mode supports external line driver devices that convert a single USART transmission into corresponding
differential pair signals. Writing RS485[0] to ‘1’ enables the automatic control of the XDIR pin that can be used to
enable transmission or reception for the line driver device. The USART automatically drives the XDIR pin high while

pin and the USART receiver, making the TXD pin a combined TxD/RxD line. The RXD pin will be disconnected from
the USART receiver and may be controlled by a different peripheral. An example of such a circuit is shown in the

23.3.3.2.7 IRCOM Mode of Operation
®
The USART peripheral can be configured in Infrared Communication mode (IRCOM), which is IrDA 1.4 compatible
with baud rates up to 115.2 kbps. When enabled, the IRCOM mode enables infrared pulse encoding/decoding for the
USART.

Pulse
Encoding
The USART is set in IRCOM mode by writing 0x02to the CMODE bit field in the USARTn.CTRLC register. The data
on the TXD/RXD pins are the inverted values of the transmitted/received infrared pulse. It is also possible to select an
event channel from the Event System as an input for the IRCOM receiver. This enables the IRCOM to receive input
from the I/O pins or sources other than the corresponding RXD pin, which will disable the RxD input from the USART
pin.
For transmission, three pulse modulation schemes are available:
•
•
•
3/16 of the baud rate period
Fixed programmable pulse time based on the peripheral clock frequency
Pulse modulation disabled
For the reception, a fixed programmable minimum high-level pulse-width for the pulse to be decoded as a logical ‘0’
is used. Shorter pulses will then be discarded, and the bit will be decoded to logical ‘1’ as if no pulse was received.
Double-Speed mode cannot be used for the USART when IRCOM mode is enabled.
23.3.4 Additional Features
23.3.4.1 Parity
Parity bits can be used by the USART to check the validity of a data frame. The Parity bit is set by the transmitter
based on the number of bits with the value of ‘1’ in a transmission and controlled by the receiver upon reception.
If the Parity bit is inconsistent with the transmission frame, the receiver may assume that the data frame has been
corrupted.
Even or odd parity can be selected for error checking by writing the Parity Mode (PMODE) bit field in the
USARTn.CTRLC register. If even parity is selected, the Parity bit is set to ‘1’ if the number of Data bits with value ‘1’
is odd (making the total number of bits with value ‘1’ even). If odd parity is selected, the Parity bit is set to ‘1’ if the
number of data bits with value ‘1’ is even (making the total number of bits with value ‘1’ odd).
When enabled, the parity checker calculates the parity of the data bits in incoming frames and compares the result
with the Parity bit of the corresponding frame. If a parity error is detected, the Parity Error flag (the PERR bit in the
USARTn.RXDATAH register) is set.
If LIN Constrained Auto-Baud mode is enabled (RXMODE = 0x03in the USARTn.CTRLB register), a parity check
is performed only on the protected identifier field. A parity error is detected if one of the equations below is not true,
which sets the Parity Error flag.

23.3.4.2 Start-of-Frame Detection
The Start-of-Frame Detection feature enables the USART to wake up from Standby sleep mode upon data reception.
When a high-to-low transition is detected on the RXD pin, the oscillator is powered up, and the USART peripheral
clock is enabled. After start-up, the rest of the data frame can be received, provided that the baud rate is slow enough
concerning the oscillator start-up time. The start-up time of the oscillators varies with supply voltage and temperature.
For details on oscillator start-up time characteristics, refer to the Electrical Characteristics section.
If a false Start bit is detected, the device will, if another wake-up source has not been triggered, go back into the
Standby sleep mode.
The Start-of-Frame detection works in Asynchronous mode only. It is enabled by writing the Start-of-Frame Detection
Enable (SFDEN) bit in the USARTn.CTRLB register. If a Start bit is detected while the device is in Standby sleep
mode, the USART Receive Start Interrupt Flag (RXSIF) bit is set.
The USART Receive Complete Interrupt Flag (RXCIF) bit and the RXSIF bit share the same interrupt line, but each
has its dedicated interrupt settings. The table below shows the USART Start Frame Detection modes, depending on
the interrupt setting.

23.3.4.3 Multiprocessor Communication
The Multiprocessor Communication mode (MPCM) effectively reduces the number of incoming frames that have
to be handled by the receiver in a system with multiple microcontrollers communicating via the same serial bus.
This mode is enabled by writing a ‘1’ to the MPCM bit in the Control B (USARTn.CTRLB) register. In this mode, a
dedicated bit in the frames is used to indicate whether the frame is an address or data frame type.
If the receiver is set up to receive frames that contain five to eight data bits, the first Stop bit is used to indicate the
frame type. If the receiver is set up for frames with nine data bits, the ninth bit is used to indicate frame type. When
the frame type bit is ‘1’, the frame contains an address. When the frame type bit is ‘0’, the frame is a data frame. If 5-
to 8-bit character frames are used, the transmitter must be set to use two Stop bits since the first Stop bit is used for
indicating the frame type.
If a particular client MCU has been addressed, it will receive the following data frames as usual, while the other client
MCUs will ignore the frames until another address frame is received.
23.3.4.3.1 Using Multiprocessor Communication
Use the following procedure to exchange data in Multiprocessor Communication mode (MPCM):
1. All client MCUs are in Multiprocessor Communication mode.
2. The host MCU sends an address frame, and all clients receive and read this frame.
DS40002174C-page 298

© 2021 Microchip Technology Inc.
ATmega3208/3209
USART - Universal Synchronous and Asynchrono...
3. Each client MCU determines if it has been selected.
4. The addressed MCU will disable MPCM and receive all data frames. The other client MCUs will ignore the
data frames.
5. When the addressed MCU has received the last data frame, it must enable MPCM again and wait for a new
address frame from the host.
The process then repeats from step 2.

Property:ꢀ
This register contains the eight LSbs of the data received by the USART receiver. The USART receiver is double-
buffered, and this register always represents the data for the oldest received frame. If the data for only one frame is
present in the receive buffer, this register contains that data.
The buffer shifts out the data either when RXDATAL or RXDATAH is read, depending on the configuration. The
register, which does not lead to data being shifted, must be read first to be able to read both bytes before shifting.
When the Character Size (CHSIZE) bit field in the Control C (USARTn.CTRLC) register is configured to 9-bit (low
byte first), a read of RXDATAH shifts the receive buffer, or else, RXDATAL shifts the buffer.

Bit 7 – RXCIFꢀUSART Receive Complete Interrupt Flag
This flag is set when there are unread data in the receive buffer and cleared when the receive buffer is empty.
Bit 6 – BUFOVFꢀBuffer Overflow
This flag is set if a buffer overflow is detected. A buffer overflow occurs when the receive buffer is full, a new frame
is waiting in the receive shift register, and a new Start bit is detected. This flag is cleared when the Receiver Data
(USARTn.RXDATAL and USARTn.RXDATAH) registers are read.
This flag is not used in the Host SPI mode of operation.
Bit 2 – FERRꢀFrame Error
This flag is set if the first Stop bit is ‘0’ and cleared when it is correctly read as ‘1’.
This flag is not used in the Host SPI mode of operation.
Bit 1 – PERRꢀParity Error
This flag is set if parity checking is enabled and the received data has a parity error, or else, this flag cleared. For
details on parity calculation, refer to 23.3.4.1 Parity.
This flag is not used in the Host SPI mode of operation.
Bit 0 – DATA[8]ꢀReceiver Data Register
When using a 9-bit frame size, this bit holds the ninth bit (MSb) of the received data.
When the Receiver Mode (RXMODE) bit field in the Control B (USARTn.CTRLB) register is configured to LIN
Constrained Auto-Baud (LINAUTO) mode, this bit indicates if the received data are within the response space of a
LIN frame. This bit is cleared if the received data are in the protected identifier field and is otherwise set.

Property:ꢀ
The data written to this register is automatically loaded into the TX Buffer and through to the dedicated Shift register.
The shift register outputs each of the bits serially to the TXD pin.
When using a 9-bit frame size, the ninth bit (MSb) must be written to the Transmit Data Register High Byte
(USARTn.TXDATAH). In that case, the buffer shifts data either when the Transmit Data Register Low Byte
(USARTn.TXDATAL) or the Transmit Data Register High Byte (USARTn.TXDATAH) is written, depending on the
configuration. The register, which does not lead to data being shifted, must be written first to be able to write both
registers before shifting.
When the Character Size (CHSIZE) bit field in the Control C (USARTn.CTRLC) register is configured to 9-bit (low
byte first), a write of the Transmit Data Register High Byte shifts the transmit buffer. Otherwise, the Transmit Data
Register Low Byte shifts the buffer.
This register may only be written when the Data Register Empty Interrupt Flag (DREIF) in the Status
(USARTn.STATUS) register is set.

This bit field enables the RS-485 and selects the operation mode. Writing RS485[0] to ‘1’ enables the RS-485 mode,
which automatically drives the XDIR pin high one clock cycle before starting transmission and pulls it low again when
the transmission is complete. Writing RS485[1] to ‘1’ enables the RS-485 mode, which automatically sets the TXD pin
to output one clock cycle before starting transmission and sets it back to input when the transmission is complete.

Overview
The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) is a high-speed synchronous data transfer interface using three or four
®
pins. It allows full-duplex communication between an AVR device and peripheral devices or between several
microcontrollers. The SPI peripheral can be configured as either host or client. The host initiates and controls all data
transactions.
The interconnection between host and client devices with SPI is shown in the block diagram. The system consists of
two shift registers and a server clock generator. The SPI host initiates the communication cycle by pulling the desired
client’s Client Select (SS) signal low. The host and client prepare the data to be sent to their respective shift registers,
and the host generates the required clock pulses on the SCK line to exchange data. Data are always shifted from
host to client on the host output, client input (MOSI) line, and from client to host on the host input, client output
(MISO) line.

The SPI is built around an 8-bit shift register that will shift data out and in at the same time. The Transmit Data
register and the Receive Data register are not physical registers but are mapped to other registers when written or

read: Writing the Transmit Data (SPIn.DATA) register will write the shift register in Normal mode and the Transmit
Buffer register in Buffer mode. Reading the Receive Data (SPIn.DATA) register will read the Receive Data register in
Normal mode and the Receive Data Buffer in Buffer mode.
In Host mode, the SPI has a clock generator to generate the SCK clock. In Client mode, the received SCK clock is
synchronized and sampled to trigger the shifting of data in the shift register.

1. If the pin data direction is configured as output, the pin level is controlled by the SPI.
2. If the SPI is in Client mode and the MISO pin data direction is configured as output, the SS pin controls the
MISO pin output in the following way:
– If the SS pin is driven low, the MISO pin is controlled by the SPI
– If the SS pin is driven high, the MISO pin is tri-stated
When the SPI module is enabled, the pin data direction for the signals marked with “Input” in Table 24-1 is
overridden.
24.3
Functional Description
24.3.1 Initialization
Initialize the SPI to a basic functional state by following these steps:
1. Configure the SS pin in the port peripheral.
2. Select the SPI host/client operation by writing the Host/Client Select (MASTER) bit in the Control A
(SPIn.CTRLA) register.
3. In Host mode, select the clock speed by writing the Prescaler (PRESC) bits and the Clock Double (CLK2X) bit
in SPIn.CTRLA.
4. Optional: Select the Data Transfer mode by writing to the MODE bits in the Control B (SPIn.CTRLB) register.
5. Optional: Write the Data Order (DORD) bit in SPIn.CTRLA.
6. Optional: Set up the Buffer mode by writing the BUFEN and BUFWR bits in the Control B (SPIn.CTRLB)
register.
7. Optional: To disable the multi-host support in Host mode, write ‘1’ to the Client Select Disable (SSD) bit in
SPIn.CTRLB.
8. Enable the SPI by writing a ‘1’ to the ENABLE bit in SPIn.CTRLA.
24.3.2 Operation
24.3.2.1 Host Mode Operation
When the SPI is configured in Host mode, a write to the SPIn.DATA register will start a new transfer. The SPI host
can operate in two modes, Normal and Buffer, as explained below.
24.3.2.1.1 Normal Mode
In Normal mode, the system is single-buffered in the transmit direction and double-buffered in the receive direction.
This influences the data handling in the following ways:
DS40002174C-page 319
Complete Datasheet
© 2021 Microchip Technology Inc.
ATmega3208/3209
SPI - Serial Peripheral Interface
1. New bytes to be sent cannot be written to the DATA (SPIn.DATA) register before the entire transfer has been
completed. A premature write will cause corruption of the transmitted data, and the Write Collision (WRCOL)
flag in SPIn.INTFLAGS will be set.
2. Received bytes are written to the Receive Data Buffer register immediately after the transmission is
completed.
3. The Receive Data Buffer register has to be read before the next transmission is completed, or the data will be
lost. This register is read by reading SPIn.DATA.
4. The Transmit Data Buffer and Receive Data Buffer registers are not used in Normal mode.
After a transfer has been completed, the Interrupt Flag (IF) will be set in the Interrupt Flags (SPIn.INTFLAGS)
register. This will cause the corresponding interrupt to be executed if this interrupt and the global interrupts are
enabled. Setting the Interrupt Enable (IE) bit in the Interrupt Control (SPIn.INTCTRL) register will enable the interrupt.
24.3.2.1.2 Buffer Mode
The Buffer mode is enabled by writing the BUFEN bit in the SPIn.CTRLB register to ‘1’. The BUFWR bit in
SPIn.CTRLB does not affect Host mode. In Buffer mode, the system is double-buffered in the transmit direction
and triple-buffered in the receive direction. This influences the data handling in the following ways:
1. New bytes can be written to the DATA (SPIn.DATA) register as long as the Data Register Empty Interrupt Flag
(DREIF) in the Interrupt Flag (SPIn.INTFLAGS) register is set. The first write will be transmitted right away, and
the following write will go to the Transmit Data Buffer register.
2. A received byte is placed in a two-entry Receive First-In, First-Out (RX FIFO) queue comprised of the Receive
Data register and Receive Data Buffer immediately after the transmission is completed.
3. The DATA register is used to read from the RX FIFO. The RX FIFO must be read at least every second
transfer to avoid any loss of data.
When both the shift register and the Transmit Data Buffer register become empty, the Transfer Complete Interrupt
Flag (TXCIF) in the Interrupt Flags (SPIn.INTFLAGS) register will be set. This will cause the corresponding interrupt
to be executed if this interrupt and the global interrupts are enabled. Setting the Transfer Complete Interrupt Enable
(TXCIE) in the Interrupt Control (SPIn.INTCTRL) register enables the Transfer Complete Interrupt.
24.3.2.1.3 SS Pin Functionality in Host Mode - Multi-Host Support
In Host mode, the Client Select Disable (SSD) bit in the Control B (SPIn.CTRLB) register controls how the SPI uses
the SS pin.
•
•
•
If SSD in SPIn.CTRLB is ‘0’, the SPI can use the SS pin to transition from Host to Client mode. This allows
multiple SPI hosts on the same SPI bus.
If SSD in SPIn.CTRLB is ‘0’, and the SS pin is configured as an output pin, it can be used as a regular I/O pin or
by other peripheral modules and will not affect the SPI system
If SSD in SPIn.CTRLB is ‘1’, the SPI does not use the SS pin. It can be used as a regular I/O pin or by other
peripheral modules.
If the SSD bit in SPIn.CTRLB is ‘0’, and the SS is configured as an input pin, the SS pin must be held high to ensure
Host SPI operation. A low level will be interpreted as another Host is trying to take control of the bus. This will switch
the SPI into Client mode, and the hardware of the SPI will perform the following actions:
1. The Host (MASTER) bit in the SPI Control A (SPIn.CTRLA) register is cleared, and the SPI system becomes a
client. The direction of the SPI pins will be switched when the conditions in Table 24-2 are met.
2. The Interrupt Flag (IF) bit in the Interrupt Flags (SPIn.INTFLAGS) register will be set. If the interrupt is enabled
and the global interrupts are enabled, the interrupt routine will be executed.

SPI - Serial Peripheral Interface
Note:ꢀ If the device is in Host mode and it cannot be ensured that the SS pin will stay high between two
transmissions, the status of the Host (MASTER) bit in SPIn.CTRLA has to be checked before a new byte is written.
After the Host bit has been cleared by a low level on the SS line, it must be set by the application to re-enable the SPI
Host mode.
24.3.2.2 Client Mode
In Client mode, the SPI peripheral receives SPI clock and Client Select from a Host. Client mode supports three
operational modes: One Normal mode and two configurations for the Buffered mode. In Client mode, the control logic
will sample the incoming signal on the SCK pin. To ensure correct sampling of this clock signal, the minimum low and
high periods must each be longer than two peripheral clock cycles.
24.3.2.2.1 Normal Mode
In Normal mode, the SPI peripheral will remain Idle as long as the SS pin is driven high. In this state, the software
may update the contents of the DATA register, but the data will not be shifted out by incoming clock pulses on the
SCK pin until the SS pin is driven low. If the SS pin is driven low, the client will start to shift out data on the first SCK
clock pulse. When one byte has been completely shifted, the SPI Interrupt Flag (IF) in SPIn.INTFLAGS is set.
The user application may continue placing new data to be sent into the DATA register before reading the incoming
data. New bytes to be sent cannot be written to the DATA register before the entire transfer has been completed. A
premature write will be ignored, and the hardware will set the Write Collision (WRCOL) flag in SPIn.INTFLAGS.
When the SS pin is driven high, the SPI logic is halted, and the SPI client will not receive any new data. Any partially
received packet in the shift register will be lost.
Figure 24-2 shows a transmission sequence in Normal mode. Notice how the value 0x45 is written to the DATA
register but never transmitted.

The figure above shows three transfers and one write to the DATA register while the SPI is busy with a transfer. This
write will be ignored, and the Write Collision (WRCOL) flag in SPIn.INTFLAGS is set.
24.3.2.2.2 Buffer Mode
To avoid data collisions, the SPI peripheral can be configured in Buffered mode by writing a ‘1’ to the Buffer Mode
Enable (BUFEN) bit in the Control B (SPIn.CTRLB) register. In this mode, the SPI has additional interrupt flags
and extra buffers. The extra buffers are shown in Figure 24-1. There are two different modes for the Buffer mode,
selected with the Buffer mode Wait for Receive (BUFWR) bit. The two different modes are described below with
timing diagrams.
Client Buffer Mode with Wait for Receive Bit Written to ‘0’
In Client mode, if the Buffer mode Wait for Receive (BUFWR) bit in SPIn.CTRLB is written to ‘0’, a dummy byte
will be sent before the transmission of user data starts. Figure 24-3 shows a transmission sequence with this
configuration. Notice how the value 0x45 is written to the Data (SPIn.DATA) register but never transmitted.

When the Wait for Receive (BUFWR) bit in SPIn.CTRLB is written to ‘0’, all writes to the Data (SPIn.DATA)
register go to the Transmit Data Buffer register. The figure above shows that the value 0x43 is written to the Data
(SPIn.DATA) register but not immediately transferred to the shift register, so the first byte sent will be a dummy byte.
The value of the dummy byte equals the values that were in the shift register at the same time. After the first dummy
transfer is completed, the value 0x43 is transferred to the shift register. Then 0x44 is written to the Data (SPIn.DATA)
register and goes to the Transmit Data Buffer register. A new transfer is started, and 0x43 will be sent. The value
0x45 is written to the Data (SPIn.DATA) register, but the Transmit Data Buffer register is not updated since it is
already full containing 0x44 and the Data Register Empty Interrupt Flag (DREIF) in SPIn.INTFLAGS is low. The value
0x45 will be lost. After the transfer, the value 0x44 is moved to the shift register. During the next transfer, 0x46 is
written to the Data (SPIn.DATA) register, and 0x44 is sent out. After the transfer is complete, 0x46 is copied into the
shift register and sent out in the next transfer.
The DREIF goes low every time the Transmit Data Buffer register is written and goes high after a transfer when the
previous value in the Transmit Data Buffer register is copied into the shift register. The Receive Complete Interrupt
Flag (RXCIF) in SPIn.INTFLAGS is set one cycle after the DREIF goes high. The Transfer Complete Interrupt Flag
is set one cycle after the Receive Complete Interrupt Flag is set when both the value in the shift register and in the
Transmit Data Buffer register has been sent.
Client Buffer Mode with Wait for Receive Bit Written to ‘1’
In Client mode, if the Buffer mode Wait for Receive (BUFWR) bit in SPIn.CRTLB is written to ‘1’, the transmission
of user data starts as soon as the SS pin is driven low. Figure 24-4 shows a transmission sequence with this
configuration. Notice how the value 0x45 is written to the Data (SPIn.DATA) register but never transmitted.

All writes to the Data (SPIn.DATA) register go to the Transmit Data Buffer register. The figure above shows that the
value 0x43 is written to the Data (SPIn.DATA) register, and since the SS pin is high, it is copied to the shift register
in the next cycle. The next write (0x44) will go to the Transmit Data Buffer register. During the first transfer, the
value 0x43 will be shifted out. In the figure above, the value 0x45 is written to the Data (SPIn.DATA) register, but the
Transmit Data Buffer register is not updated since the DREIF is low. After the transfer is completed, the value 0x44
from the Transmit Data Buffer register is copied to the shift register. The value 0x46 is written to the Transmit Data
Buffer register. During the next two transfers, 0x44 and 0x46 are shifted out. The flags behave identically to the Buffer
Mode Wait for Receive (BUFWR) bit in SPIn.CTRLB set to ‘0’.
24.3.2.2.3 SS Pin Functionality in Client Mode
The Client Select (SS) pin plays a central role in the operation of the SPI. Depending on the SPI mode and the
configuration of this pin, it can be used to activate or deactivate devices. The SS pin is used as a Chip Select pin.
In Client mode, the SS, MOSI, and SCK are always inputs. The behavior of the MISO pin depends on the configured
data direction of the pin in the port peripheral and the value of SS. When the SS pin is driven low, the SPI is activated
and will respond to received SCK pulses by clocking data out on MISO if the user has configured the data direction
of the MISO pin as an output. When the SS pin is driven high, the SPI is deactivated, meaning that it will not receive
incoming data. If the MISO pin data direction is configured as an output, the MISO pin will be tri-stated. Table 24-3
shows an overview of the SS pin functionality.

Note:ꢀ In Client mode, the SPI state machine will be reset when the SS pin is driven high. If the SS pin is driven
high during a transmission, the SPI will stop sending and receiving data immediately and both data received and data
sent must be considered lost. As the SS pin is used to signal the start and end of a transfer, it is useful for achieving
packet/byte synchronization and keeping the Client bit counter synchronized with the host clock generator.
24.3.2.3 Data Modes
There are four combinations of SCK phase and polarity concerning the serial data. The desired combination is
selected by writing to the MODE bits in the Control B (SPIn.CTRLB) register.

The SPI data transfer formats are shown below. Data bits are shifted out and latched in on opposite edges of the
SCK signal, ensuring sufficient time for data signals to stabilize.
The leading edge is the first clock edge of a clock cycle. The trailing edge is the last clock edge of a clock cycle.

An interrupt source is enabled or disabled by writing to the corresponding enable bit in the peripheral’s Interrupt
Control (peripheral.INTCTRL) register.
An interrupt request is generated when the corresponding interrupt source is enabled, and the interrupt flag is set.
The interrupt request remains active until the interrupt flag is cleared. See the peripheral’s INTFLAGS register for

Bit 7 – RXCIFꢀReceive Complete Interrupt Flag
This flag is set when there are unread data in the Receive Data Buffer register and cleared when the Receive Data
Buffer register is empty (that is, it does not contain any unread data).
When interrupt-driven data reception is used, the Receive Complete Interrupt routine must read the received data
from the DATA register to clear RXCIF. If not, a new interrupt will occur directly after the return from the current
interrupt. This flag can also be cleared by writing a ‘1’ to its bit location.
Bit 6 – TXCIFꢀTransfer Complete Interrupt Flag
This flag is set when all the data in the Transmit shift register has been shifted out, and there is no new data in the
transmit buffer (SPIn.DATA). The flag is cleared by writing a ‘1’ to its bit location.
Bit 5 – DREIFꢀData Register Empty Interrupt Flag
This flag indicates whether the Transmit Data Buffer register is ready to receive new data. The flag is ‘1’ when the
transmit buffer is empty and ‘0’ when the transmit buffer contains data to be transmitted that has not yet been moved
into the shift register. The DREIF is cleared after a Reset to indicate that the transmitter is ready.
The DREIF is cleared by writing to DATA. When interrupt-driven data transmission is used, the Data Register Empty
Interrupt routine must either write new data to DATA to clear DREIF or disable the Data Register Empty interrupt. If
not, a new interrupt will occur directly after the return from the current interrupt.
Bit 4 – SSIFꢀClient Select Trigger Interrupt Flag
This flag indicates that the SPI has been in Host mode, and the SS pin has been pulled low externally, so the SPI
is now working in Client mode. The flag will only be set if the Client Select Disable (SSD) bit is not ‘1’. The flag is
cleared by writing a ‘1’ to its bit location.
Bit 0 – BUFOVFꢀBuffer Overflow
This flag indicates data loss due to a Receive Data Buffer full condition. This flag is set if a Buffer Overflow condition
is detected. A Buffer Overflow occurs when the receive buffer is full (two bytes), and a third byte has been received
in the shift register. If there is no transmit data, the Buffer Overflow will not be set before the start of a new serial
transfer. This flag is cleared when the DATA register is read or by writing a ‘1’ to its bit location.

The DATA register is used for sending and receiving data. Writing to the register initiates the data transmission when
in Host mode while preparing data for sending in Client mode. The byte written to the register shifts out on the SPI
output line when a transaction is initiated.
The SPIn.DATA register is not a physical register. Depending on what mode is configured, it is mapped to other
registers, as described below.
•
Normal mode:
– Writing the DATA register will write the shift register
– Reading from DATA will read from the Receive Data register
Buffer mode:
•
– Writing the DATA register will write to the Transmit Data Buffer register
– Reading from DATA will read from the Receive Data Buffer register. The contents of the Receive Data
register will then be moved to the Receive Data Buffer register.

Overview
The Two-Wire Interface (TWI) is a bidirectional, two-wire communication interface (bus) with a Serial Data Line (SDA)
and a Serial Clock Line (SCL).
The TWI bus connects one or several client devices to one or several host devices. Any device connected to the
bus can act as a host, a client, or both. The host generates the SCL by using a Baud Rate Generator (BRG) and
initiates data transactions by addressing one client and telling whether it wants to transmit or receive data. The BRG
is capable of generating the Standard mode (Sm) and Fast mode (Fm, Fm+) bus frequencies from 100 kHz up to 1
MHz.
The TWI will detect Start and Stop conditions, bus collisions, and bus errors. Arbitration lost, errors, collision, and
clock hold are also detected and indicated in separate status flags available in both Host and Client modes.
The TWI supports multi-host bus operation and arbitration. An arbitration scheme handles the case where more
than one host tries to transmit data at the same time. The TWI also supports Smart mode, which can auto-trigger
operations and thus reduce software complexity. The TWI supports Dual mode with simultaneous host and client
operations, which are implemented as independent units with separate enabling and configuration. The TWI supports
Quick Command mode, where the host can address a client without exchanging data.

Functional Description
25.3.1 General TWI Bus Concepts
The TWI provides a simple, bidirectional, two-wire communication bus consisting of:
•
•
Serial Data Line (SDA) for packet transfer
Serial Clock Line (SCL) for the bus clock
The two lines are open-collector lines (wired-AND).
The TWI bus topology is a simple and efficient method of interconnecting multiple devices on a serial bus. A device
connected to the bus can be a host or a client. Only host devices can control the bus and the bus communication.
A unique address is assigned to each client device connected to the bus, and the host will use it to control the client
and initiate a transaction. Several hosts can be connected to the same bus. This is called a multi-host environment.
An arbitration mechanism is provided for resolving bus ownership among hosts since only one host device may own
the bus at any given time.
A host indicates the start of a transaction by issuing a Start condition (S) on the bus. The host provides the clock
signal for the transaction. An address packet with a 7-bit client address (ADDRESS) and a direction bit, representing
whether the host wishes to read or write data (R/W), are then sent.
The addressed I2C client will then acknowledge (ACK) the address, and data packet transactions can begin. Every
9-bit data packet consists of eight data bits followed by a 1-bit reply indicating whether the data was acknowledged or
not by the receiver.
After all the data packets (DATA) are transferred, the host issues a Stop condition (P) on the bus to end the
transaction.

25.3.2 TWI Basic Operation
25.3.2.1 Initialization
If used, the following bits must be configured before enabling the TWI device:
•
•
The SDA Hold Time (SDAHOLD) bit field from the Control A (TWIn.CTRLA) register
The FM Plus Enable (FMPEN) bit from the Control A (TWIn.CTRLA) register
25.3.2.1.1 Host Initialization
Write the Host Baud Rate (TWIn.MBAUD) register to a value that will result in a valid TWI bus clock frequency.
Writing a ‘1’ to the Enable TWI Host (ENABLE) bit in the Host Control A (TWIn.MCTRLA) register will enable the TWI
host. The Bus State (BUSSTATE) bit field from the Host Status (TWIn.MSTATUS) register must be set to 0x1to force
the bus state to Idle.
25.3.2.1.2 Client Initialization
Follow these steps to initialize the client:
1. Before enabling the TWI device, configure the SDA Setup Time (SDASETUP) bit from the Control A
(TWIn.CTRLA) register.
2. Write the address of the client to the Client Address (TWIn.SADDR) register.
3. Write a ‘1’ to the Enable TWI Client (ENABLE) bit in the Client Control A (TWIn.SCTRLA) register to enable
the TWI client.
The client device will now wait for a host device to issue a Start condition and the matching client address.

TWI - Two-Wire Interface
25.3.2.2 TWI Host Operation
The TWI host is byte-oriented, with an optional interrupt after each byte. There are separate interrupt flags for the
host write and read operation. Interrupt flags can also be used for polled operation. There are dedicated status flags
for indicating ACK/NACK received, bus error, arbitration lost, clock hold, and bus state.
When an interrupt flag is set to ‘1’, the SCL is forced low. This will give the host time to respond or handle any data
and will, in most cases, require software interaction. Clearing the interrupt flags releases the SCL. The number of
interrupts generated is kept to a minimum by automatic handling of most conditions.
25.3.2.2.1 Clock Generation
The TWI supports several transmission modes with different frequency limitations:
•
•
•
Standard mode (Sm) up to 100 kHz
Fast mode (Fm) up to 400 kHz
Fast mode Plus (Fm+) up to 1 MHz
Write the Host Baud Rate (TWIn.MBAUD) register to a value that will result in a TWI bus clock frequency equal to, or
less than, those frequency limits, depending on the transmission mode.
The low (tLOW) and high (tHIGH) times are determined by the Host Baud Rate (TWIn.MBAUD) register, while the rise
(tR) and fall (tOF) times are determined by the bus topology.

Calculation of the BAUD Value
To ensure operation within the specifications of the desired speed mode (Sm, Fm, Fm+), follow these steps:

– If the calculated tLOW is above the limit, use the BAUD value from Equation 25-3
– If the limit is not met, calculate a new BAUD value using Equation 25-5 below, where tLOW_mode is either

25.3.2.2.2 TWI Bus State Logic
The bus state logic continuously monitors the activity on the TWI bus when the host is enabled. It continues to
operate in all sleep modes, including Power-Down.
The bus state logic includes Start and Stop condition detectors, collision detection, inactive bus time-out detection,
and a bit counter. These are used to determine the bus state. The software can get the current bus state by reading
the Bus State (BUSSTATE) bit field in the Host Status (TWIn.MSTATUS) register.
The bus state can be Unknown, Idle, Busy or Owner, and it is determined according to the state diagram shown
below.

TWI - Two-Wire Interface
1. Unknown: The bus state machine is active when the TWI host is enabled. After the TWI host has been
enabled, the bus state is Unknown. The bus state will also be set to Unknown after a system Reset is
performed or after the TWI host is disabled.
2. Idle: The bus state machine can be forced to enter the Idle state by writing 0x1to the Bus State (BUSSTATE)
bit field. The bus state logic cannot be forced into any other state. If no state is set by the application
software, the bus state will become Idle when the first Stop condition is detected. If the Inactive Bus Time-Out
(TIMEOUT) bit field from the Host Control A (TWIn.MCTRLA) register is configured to a nonzero value, the
bus state will change to Idle on the occurrence of a time-out. When the bus is Idle, it is ready for a new
transaction.
3. Busy: If a Start condition, generated externally, is detected when the bus is Idle, the bus state becomes Busy.
The bus state changes back to Idle when a Stop condition is detected or when a time-out, if configured, is set.
4. Owner: If a Start condition is generated internally when the bus is Idle, the bus state becomes Owner. If the
complete transaction is performed without interference, the host issues a Stop condition, and the bus state
changes back to Idle. If a collision is detected, the arbitration is lost, and the bus state becomes Busy until a
Stop condition is detected.
25.3.2.2.3 Transmitting Address Packets
The host starts performing a bus transaction when the Host Address (TWIn.MADDR) register is written with the client
address and the R/W direction bit. The value of the MADDR register is then copied into the Host Data (TWIn.MDATA)
register. If the bus state is Busy, the TWI host will wait until the bus state becomes Idle before issuing the Start
condition. The TWI will issue a Start condition, and the shift register performs a byte transmit operation on the bus.
Depending on the arbitration and the R/W direction bit, one of four cases (M1 to M4) arises after the transmission of
the address packet.

Case M1: Address Packet Transmit Complete - Direction Bit Set to ‘0’
If a client device responds to the address packet with an ACK, the Write Interrupt Flag (WIF) is set to ‘1’, the
Received Acknowledge (RXACK) flag is set to ‘0’, and the Clock Hold (CLKHOLD) flag is set to ‘1’. The WIF, RXACK
and CLKHOLD flags are located in the Host Status (TWIn.MSTATUS) register.
The clock hold is active at this point, forcing the SCL low. This will stretch the low period of the clock to slow down the
overall clock frequency, forcing delays required to process the data and preventing further activity on the bus.
The software can prepare to:
•
Transmit data packets to the client
Case M2: Address Packet Transmit Complete - Direction Bit Set to ‘1’
If a client device responds to the address packet with an ACK, the RXACK flag is set to ‘0’, and the client can start
sending data to the host without any delays because the client owns the bus at this moment. The clock hold is active
at this point, forcing the SCL low.
The software can prepare to:

ATmega3208/3209
TWI - Two-Wire Interface
•
Read the received data packet from the client
Case M3: Address Packet Transmit Complete - Address not Acknowledged by Client
If no client device responds to the address packet, the WIF and the RXACK flags will be set to ‘1’. The clock hold is
active at this point, forcing the SCL low.
The missing ACK response can indicate that the I2C client is busy with other tasks, or it is in a sleep mode, and it is
not able to respond.
The software can prepare to take one of the following actions:
•
•
Retransmit the address packet
Complete the transaction by issuing a Stop condition in the Command (MCMD) bit field from the Host Control B
(TWIn.MCTRLB) register, which is the recommended action
Case M4: Arbitration Lost or Bus Error
If the arbitration is lost, both the WIF and the Arbitration Lost (ARBLOST) flags in the Host Status (TWIn.MSTATUS)
register are set to ‘1’. The SDA is disabled, and the SCL is released. The bus state changes to Busy, and the host is
no longer allowed to perform any operation on the bus until the bus state is changed back to Idle.
A bus error will behave similarly to the arbitration lost condition. In this case, the Bus Error (BUSERR) flag in the Host
Status (TWIn.MSTATUS) register is set to ‘1’, in addition to the WIF and ARBLOST flags.
The software can prepare to:
•
Abort the operation and wait until the bus state changes to Idle by reading the Bus State (BUSSTATE) bit field in
the Host Status (TWIn.MSTATUS) register
25.3.2.2.4 Transmitting Data Packets
Assuming the above M1 case, the TWI host can start transmitting data by writing to the Host Data (TWIn.MDATA)
register, which will also clear the Write Interrupt Flag (WIF). During the data transfer, the host is continuously
monitoring the bus for collisions and errors. The WIF flag will be set to ‘1’ after the data packet transfer has been
completed.
If the transmission is successful and the host receives an ACK bit from the client, the Received Acknowledge
(RXACK) flag will be set to ‘0’, meaning that the client is ready to receive new data packets.
The software can prepare to take one of the following actions:
•
•
•
Transmit a new data packet
Transmit a new address packet
Complete the transaction by issuing a Stop condition in the Command (MCMD) bit field from the Host Control B
(TWIn.MCTRLB) register
If the transmission is successful and the host receives a NACK bit from the client, the RXACK flag will be set to ‘1’,
meaning that the client is not able to or does not need to receive more data.
The software can prepare to take one of the following actions:
•
•
Transmit a new address packet
Complete the transaction by issuing a Stop condition in the Command (MCMD) bit field from the Host Control B
(TWIn.MCTRLB) register
The RXACK status is valid only if the WIF flag is set to ‘1’ and the Arbitration Lost (ARBLOST) and Bus Error
(BUSERR) flags are set to ‘0’.
The transmission can be unsuccessful if a collision is detected. Then, the host will lose the arbitration, the Arbitration
Lost (ARBLOST) flag will be set to ‘1’, and the bus state changes to Busy. An arbitration lost during the sending of
the data packet is treated the same way as the above M4 case.
The WIF, ARBLOST, BUSERR and RXACK flags are all located in the Host Status (TWIn.MSTATUS) register.
25.3.2.2.5 Receiving Data Packets
Assuming the M2 case above, the clock is released for one byte, allowing the client to put one byte of data on the
bus. The host will receive one byte of data from the client, and the Read Interrupt Flag (RIF) will be set to ‘1’ together
with the Clock Hold (CLKHOLD) flag. The action selected by the Acknowledge Action (ACKACT) bit in the Host
Control B (TWIn.MCTRLB) register is automatically sent on the bus when a command is written to the Command
(MCMD) bit field in the TWIn.MCTRLB register.

TWI - Two-Wire Interface
The software can prepare to take one of the following actions:
•
Respond with an ACK by writing ‘0’ to the ACKACT bit in the TWIn.MCTRLB register and prepare to receive a
new data packet
•
•
Respond with a NACK by writing ‘1’ to the ACKACT bit and then transmit a new address packet
Respond with a NACK by writing ‘1’ to the ACKACT bit and then complete the transaction by issuing a Stop
condition in the MCMD bit field from the TWIn.MCTRLB register
A NACK response might not be successfully executed, as the arbitration can be lost during the transmission. If a
collision is detected, the host loses the arbitration, the Arbitration Lost (ARBLOST) flag is set to ‘1’, and the bus state
changes to Busy. The Host Write Interrupt Flag (WIF) is set if the arbitration was lost when sending a NACK or a bus
error occurred during the procedure. An arbitration lost during the sending of the data packet is treated in the same
way as the above M4 case.
The RIF, CLKHOLD, ARBLOST and WIF flags are all located in the Host Status (TWIn.MSTATUS) register.
Note:ꢀ The RIF and WIF flags are mutually exclusive and cannot be set simultaneously.
25.3.2.3 TWI Client Operation
The TWI client is byte-oriented with optional interrupts after each byte. There are separate interrupt flags for the client
data and address/Stop recognition. Interrupt flags can also be used for polled operation. There are dedicated status
flags for indicating ACK/NACK received, clock hold, collision, bus error, and R/W direction bit.
When an interrupt flag is set to ‘1’, the SCL is forced low. This will give the client time to respond or handle any data
and will, in most cases, require software interaction. The number of interrupts generated is kept to a minimum by
automatic handling of most conditions.
The Permissive Mode Enable (PMEN) bit in the Client Control A (TWIn.SCTRLA) register can be configured to allow
the client to respond to all received addresses.
25.3.2.3.1 Receiving Address Packets
When the TWI is configured as a client, it will wait for a Start condition to be detected. When this happens, the
successive address packet will be received and checked by the address match logic. The client will ACK a correct
address and store the address in the Client Data (TWIn.SDATA) register. If the received address is not a match, the
client will not acknowledge or store the address but wait for a new Start condition.
The Address or Stop Interrupt Flag (APIF) in the Client Status (TWIn.SSTATUS) register is set to ‘1’ when a Start
condition is succeeded by one of the following:
•
A valid address match with the address stored in the Address (ADDR[7:1]) bit field in the Client Address
(TWIn.SADDR) register
•
The General Call Address 0x00and the Address (ADDR[0]) bit in the Client Address (TWIn.SADDR) register
are set to ‘1’
•
•
A valid address match with the secondary address stored in the Address Mask (ADDRMASK) bit field and the
Address Mask Enable (ADDREN) bit is set to ‘1’ in the Client Address Mask (TWIn.SADDRMASK) register
Any address if the Permissive Mode Enable (PMEN) bit in the Client Control A (TWIn.SCTRLA) register is set to
‘1’
Depending on the Read/Write Direction (DIR) bit in the Client Status (TWIn.SSTATUS) register and the bus condition,
one of four distinct cases (S1 to S4) arises after the reception of the address packet.

Case S1: Address Packet Accepted - Direction Bit Set to ‘0’
If an ACK is sent by the client after the address packet is received, and the Read/Write Direction (DIR) bit in the
Client Status (TWIn.SSTATUS) register is set to ‘0’, the host indicates a write operation.
The clock hold is active at this point, forcing the SCL low. This will stretch the low period of the clock to slow down the
overall clock frequency, forcing delays required to process the data and preventing further activity on the bus.
The software can prepare to:
•
Read the received data packet from the host
Case S2: Address Packet Accepted - Direction Bit Set to ‘1’
If an ACK is sent by the client after the address packet is received, and the DIR bit is set to ‘1’, the host indicates a
read operation, and the Data Interrupt Flag (DIF) in the Client Status (TWIn.SSTATUS) register will be set to ‘1’.
The clock hold is active at this point, forcing the SCL low.
The software can prepare to:
•
Transmit data packets to the host
Case S3: Stop Condition Received
When the Stop condition is received, the Address or Stop (AP) flag will be set to ‘0’, indicating that a Stop condition,
and not an address match, activated the Address or Stop Interrupt Flag (APIF).
The AP and APIF flags are located in the Client Status (TWIn.SSTATUS) register.
The software can prepare to:
•
Wait until a new address packet has been addressed to it
Case S4: Collision
If the client is not able to send a high-level data bit or a NACK, the Collision (COLL) bit in the Client Status
(TWIn.SSTATUS) register is set to ‘1’. The client will commence its operation as normal, except no low values will
be shifted out on the SDA. The data and acknowledge output from the client logic will be disabled. The clock hold is
released. A Start or repeated Start condition will be accepted.
The COLL bit is intended for systems where the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is employed. A detected collision
in non-ARP situations indicates that there has been a protocol violation and must be treated as a bus error.
25.3.2.3.2 Receiving Data Packets
Assuming the above S1 case, the client must be ready to receive data. When a data packet is received, the
Data Interrupt Flag (DIF) in the Client Status (TWIn.SSTATUS) register is set to ‘1’. The action selected by the
Acknowledge Action (ACKACT) bit in the Client Control B (TWIn.SCTRLB) register is automatically sent on the bus
when a command is written to the Command (SCMD) bit field in the TWIn.SCTRLB register.

TWI - Two-Wire Interface
The software can prepare to take one of the following actions:
•
Respond with an ACK by writing ‘0’ to the ACKACT bit in the TWIn.SCTRLB register, indicating that the client is
ready to receive more data
•
Respond with a NACK by writing ‘1’ to the ACKACT bit, indicating that the client cannot receive any more data
and the host must issue a Stop or repeated Start condition
25.3.2.3.3 Transmitting Data Packets
Assuming the above S2 case, the client can start transmitting data by writing to the Client Data (TWIn.SDATA)
register. When a data packet transmission is completed, the Data Interrupt Flag (DIF) in the Client Status
(TWIn.SSTATUS) register is set to ‘1’.
The software can prepare to take one of the following actions:
•
Check if the host responded with an ACK by reading the Received Acknowledge (RXACK) bit from the Client
Status (TWIn.SSTATUS) register, and start transmitting new data packets
•
Check if the host responded with a NACK by reading the RXACK bit, and stop transmitting data packets. The
host must send a Stop or repeated Start condition after the NACK.
25.3.3 Additional Features
25.3.3.1 SMBus
If the TWI is used in an SMBus environment, the Inactive Bus Time-Out (TIMEOUT) bit field from the Host Control
A (TWIn.MCTRLA) register must be configured. It is recommended to write to the Host Baud Rate (TWIn.MBAUD)
register before setting the time-out because it is dependent on the baud rate setting.
A frequency of 100 kHz can be used for the SMBus environment. For the Standard mode (Sm) and Fast mode (Fm),
the operating frequency has slew rate limited output, while for the Fast mode Plus (Fm+), it has x10 output drive
strength.
The TWI also allows for an SMBus compatible SDA hold time configured in the SDA Hold Time (SDAHOLD) bit field
from the Control A (TWIn.CTRLA) register.
25.3.3.2 Multi-Host
A host can start a bus transaction only if it has detected that the bus is in the Idle state. As the TWI bus is a multi-host
bus, more devices may try to initiate a transaction at the same time. This results in multiple hosts owning the bus
simultaneously. The TWI solves this problem by using an arbitration scheme where the host loses control of the bus
if it is not able to transmit a high-level data bit on the SDA and the Bus State (BUSSTATE) bit field from the Host
Status (TWIn.MSTATUS) register will be changed to Busy. The hosts that lose the arbitration must wait until the bus
becomes Idle before attempting to reacquire the bus ownership.
Both devices can issue a Start condition, but DEVICE1 loses arbitration when attempting to transmit a high-level (bit
5) while DEVICE2 is transmitting a low-level.

TWI - Two-Wire Interface
25.3.3.3 Smart Mode
The TWI interface has a Smart mode that simplifies the application code and minimizes the user interaction needed
to adhere to the I2C protocol.
For the TWI host, the Smart mode will automatically send the ACK action as soon as the Host Data (TWIn.MDATA)
register is read. This feature is only active when the Acknowledge Action (ACKACT) bit in the Host Control B
(TWIn.MCTRLB) register is set to ACK. If the ACKACT bit is set to NACK, the TWI host will not generate a NACK
after the MDATA register is read. This feature is enabled when the Smart Mode Enable (SMEN) bit in the Host
Control A (TWIn.MCTRLA) register is set to ‘1’.
For the TWI client, the Smart mode will automatically send the ACK action as soon as the Client Data (TWIn.SDATA)
register is read. The Smart mode will automatically set the Data Interrupt Flag (DIF) to ‘0’ in the Client Status
(TWIn.SSTATUS) register if the TWIn.SDATA register is read or written. This feature is enabled when the Smart
Mode Enable (SMEN) bit in the Client Control A (TWIn.SCTRLA) register is set to ‘1’.
25.3.3.4 Dual Mode
The TWI supports Dual mode operation where the host and the client will operate simultaneously and independently.
In this case, the Control A (TWIn.CTRLA) register will configure the host device, and the Dual Mode Control
(TWIn.DUALCTRL) register will configure the client device. See the 25.3.2.1 Initialization section for more details
about the host configuration.
If used, the following bits must be configured before enabling the TWI Dual mode:
•
•
The SDA Hold Time (SDAHOLD) bit field in the DUALCTRL register
The FM Plus Enable (FMPEN) bit from the DUALCTRL register
The Dual mode can be enabled by writing a ‘1’ to the Dual Control Enable (ENABLE) bit in the DUALCTRL register.
25.3.3.5 Quick Command Mode
With Quick Command mode, the R/W bit from the address packet denotes the command. This mode is enabled by
writing ‘1’ to the Quick Command Enable (QCEN) bit in the Host Control A (TWIn.MCTRLA) register. There are no
data sent or received.
The Quick Command mode is SMBus specific, where the R/W bit can be used to turn a device function on/off or
to enable/disable a low-power Standby mode. This mode can be enabled to auto-trigger operations and reduce
software complexity.
After the host receives an ACK from the client, either the Read Interrupt Flag (RIF) or Write Interrupt Flag (WIF)
will be set, depending on the value of the R/W bit. When either the RIF or WIF flag is set after issuing a Quick
Command, the TWI will accept a Stop command by writing the Command (MCMD) bit field in the Host Control B
(TWIn.MCTRLB) register.
The RIF and WIF flags, together with the value of the last Received Acknowledge (RXACK) flag, are all located in the
Host Status (TWIn.MSTATUS) register.

TWI - Two-Wire Interface
The client address match logic supports recognition of 7-bit addresses and General Call Address. The Client Address
(TWIn.SADDR) register is used by the client address match logic to determine if a host device has addressed the
TWI client.
The TWI client address match logic only supports recognition of the first byte of a 10-bit address, and the second
byte must be handled in software. The first byte of the 10-bit address will be recognized if the upper five bits of the
Client Address (TWIn.SADDR) register are 0b11110. Thus, the first byte will consist of five indication bits, the two
Most Significant bits (MSb) of the 10-bits address, and the R/W direction bit. The Least Significant Byte (LSB) of the
address that follows from the host will come in the form of a data packet.

Host
TWI Host interrupt
•
•
RIF: Read Interrupt Flag in TWIn.MSTATUS is set to ‘1’
WIF: Write Interrupt Flag in TWIn.MSTATUS is set to ‘1’
When an interrupt condition occurs, the corresponding interrupt flag is set in the Host Status (TWIn.MSTATUS)
register or the Client Status (TWIn.SSTATUS) register.
When several interrupt request conditions are supported by an interrupt vector, the interrupt requests are ORed
together into one combined interrupt request to the interrupt controller. The user must read the interrupt flags from the
TWIn.MSTATUS register or the TWIn.SSTATUS register to determine which of the interrupt conditions are present.
25.3.5 Sleep Mode Operation
The bus state logic and the address recognition hardware continue to operate in all sleep modes. If a client device
is in a sleep mode and a Start condition followed by the address of the client is detected, clock stretching is active
during the wake-up period until the main clock is available. The host will stop operation in all sleep modes. When the
Dual mode is active, the device will wake up only when the Start condition is sent on the bus of the client.
25.3.6 Debug Operation
During run-time debugging, the TWI will continue normal operation. Halting the CPU in Debugging mode will halt the
normal operation of the TWI. The TWI can be forced to operate with a halted CPU by writing a ‘1’ to the Debug Run
(DBGRUN) bit in the Debug Control (TWIn.DBGCTRL) register. When the CPU is halted in Debug mode, and the
DBGRUN bit is ‘1’, reading or writing the Host Data (TWIn.MDATA) register or the Client Data (TWIn.SDATA) register
will neither trigger a bus operation nor cause transmit and clear flags. If the TWI is configured to require periodical
service by the CPU through interrupts or similar, improper operation or data loss may result during halted debugging.

Bit 3 – FLUSHꢀFlush
This bit clears the internal state of the host and the bus states changes to Idle. The TWI will transmit invalid data if
the Host Data (TWIn.MDATA) register is written before the Host Address (TWIn.MADDR) register.
Writing a ‘1’ to this bit generates a strobe for one clock cycle, disabling the host and then re-enabling the host. Writing
a ‘0’ to this bit has no effect.
Bit 2 – ACKACTꢀAcknowledge Action
The ACKACT(1) bit represents the behavior in the Host mode under certain conditions defined by the bus state and
the software interaction. If the Smart Mode Enable (SMEN) bit in the Host Control A (TWIn.MCTRLA) register is set
to ‘1’, the acknowledge action is performed when the Host Data (TWIn.MDATA) register is read, else a command
must be written to the Command (MCDM) bit field in the Host Control B (TWIn.MCTRLB) register.
The acknowledge action is not performed when the Host Data (TWIn.MDATA) register is written since the host is
sending data.

Bit 7 – RIFꢀRead Interrupt Flag
This flag is set to ‘1’ when the host byte read operation is completed.
The RIF flag can be used for a host read interrupt. More information can be found in the Read Interrupt Enable
(RIEN) bit from the Host Control A (TWIn.MCTRLA) register.
This flag is automatically cleared when accessing several other TWI registers. The RIF flag can be cleared by
choosing one of the following methods:
1. Writing a ‘1’ to it.
2. Writing to the Host Address (TWIn.MADDR) register.
3. Writing/Reading the Host Data (TWIn.MDATA) register.
4. Writing to the Command (MCMD) bit field from the Host Control B (TWIn.MCTRLB) register.
Bit 6 – WIFꢀWrite Interrupt Flag
This flag is set to ‘1’ when a host transmit address or byte write operation is completed, regardless of the occurrence
of a bus error or arbitration lost condition.
The WIF flag can be used for a host write interrupt. More information can be found from the Write Interrupt Enable
(WIEN) bit in the Host Control A (TWIn.MCTRLA) register.
This flag can be cleared by choosing one of the methods described for the RIF flag.
Bit 5 – CLKHOLDꢀClock Hold
When this bit is read as ‘1’, it indicates that the host is currently holding the SCL low, stretching the TWI clock period.
This bit can be cleared by choosing one of the methods described for the RIF flag.
Bit 4 – RXACKꢀReceived Acknowledge
When this flag is read as ‘0’, it indicates that the most recent Acknowledge bit from the client was ACK, and the client
is ready for more data.
When this flag is read as ‘1’, it indicates that the most recent Acknowledge bit from the client was NACK, and the
client is not able to or does not need to receive more data.
Bit 3 – ARBLOSTꢀArbitration Lost
When this bit is read as ‘1’, it indicates that the host has lost arbitration. This can happen in one of the following
cases:
1. While transmitting a high data bit.
2. While transmitting a NACK bit.
3. While issuing a Start condition (S).
4. While issuing a repeated Start (Sr).
This flag can be cleared by choosing one of the methods described for the RIF flag.
Bit 2 – BUSERRꢀBus Error
The BUSERR flag indicates that an illegal bus operation has occurred. An illegal bus operation is detected if a
protocol violating the Start (S), repeated Start (Sr), or Stop (P) conditions is detected on the TWI bus lines. A Start
condition directly followed by a Stop condition is one example of a protocol violation.
The BUSERR flag can be cleared by choosing one of the following methods:

Bits 7:0 – ADDR[7:0]ꢀAddress
This register contains the address of the external client device. When this bit field is written, the TWI will issue a Start
condition, and the shift register performs a byte transmit operation on the bus depending on the bus state.
This register can be read at any time without interfering with the ongoing bus activity since a read access does not
trigger the host logic to perform any bus protocol related operations.
The host control logic uses the bit 0 of this register as the R/W direction bit.

Bits 7:0 – DATA[7:0]ꢀData
This bit field provides direct access to the host’s physical shift register, which is used to shift out data on the bus
(transmit) and to shift in data received from the bus (receive). The direct access implies that the MDATA register
cannot be accessed during byte transmissions.
Reading valid data or writing data to be transmitted can only be successful when the CLKHOLD bit is read as ‘1’ or
when an interrupt occurs.
A write access to the MDATA register will command the host to perform a byte transmit operation on the bus, directly
followed by receiving the Acknowledge bit from the client. This is independent of the Acknowledge Action (ACKACT)
bit from the Host Control B (TWIn.MCTRLB) register. The write operation is performed regardless of winning or losing
arbitration before the Write Interrupt Flag (WIF) is set to ‘1’.
If the Smart Mode Enable (SMEN) bit in the Host Control A (TWIn.MCTRLA) register is set to ‘1’, a read access to
the MDATA register will command the host to perform an acknowledge action. This is dependent on the setting of the
Acknowledge Action (ACKACT) bit from the Host Control B (TWIn.MCTRLB) register.
Notes:ꢀ
1. The WIF and RIF flags are cleared automatically if the MDATA register is read while ACKACT is set to ‘1’.
2. The ARBLOST and BUSEER flags are left unchanged.
3. The WIF, RIF, ARBLOST, and BUSERR flags together with the Clock Hold (CLKHOLD) bit are all located in
the Host Status (TWIn.MSTATUS) register.

Bit 7 – DIENꢀData Interrupt Enable
Writing this bit to ‘1’ enables an interrupt on the Data Interrupt Flag (DIF) from the Client Status (TWIn.SSTATUS)
register.
A TWI client data interrupt will be generated only if this bit, the DIF flag, and the Global Interrupt Enable (I) bit in the
Status (CPU.SREG) register are all ‘1’.
Bit 6 – APIENꢀAddress or Stop Interrupt Enable
Writing this bit to ‘1’ enables an interrupt on the Address or Stop Interrupt Flag (APIF) from the Client Status
(TWIn.SSTATUS) register.
A TWI client address or stop interrupt will be generated only if this bit, the APIF flag, and the Global Interrupt Enable
(I) bit in the Status (CPU.SREG) register are all ‘1’.
Notes:ꢀ
1. The client stop interrupt shares the interrupt flag and vector with the client address interrupt.
2. The Stop Interrupt Enable (PIEN) bit in the Client Control A (TWIn.SCTRLA) register must be written to ‘1’ for
the APIF to be set on a Stop condition.
3. When the interrupt occurs, the Address or Stop (AP) bit in the Client Status (TWIn.SSTATUS) register will
determine whether an address match or a Stop condition caused the interrupt.
Bit 5 – PIENꢀStop Interrupt Enable
Writing this bit to ‘1’ allows the Address or Stop Interrupt Flag (APIF) in the Client Status (TWIn.SSTATUS) register to
be set when a Stop condition occurs. The main clock frequency must be at least four times the SCL frequency to use
this feature.
Bit 2 – PMENꢀPermissive Mode Enable
If this bit is written to ‘1’, the client address match logic responds to all received addresses.
If this bit is written to ‘0’, the address match logic uses the Client Address (TWIn.SADDR) register to determine which
address to recognize as the client’s address.
Bit 1 – SMENꢀSmart Mode Enable
Writing this bit to ‘1’ enables the client Smart mode. When the Smart mode is enabled, issuing a command by
writing to the Command (SCMD) bit field in the Client Control B (TWIn.SCTRLB) register or accessing the Client Data
(TWIn.SDATA) register resets the interrupt, and the operation continues. If the Smart mode is disabled, the client
always waits for a new client command before continuing.
Bit 0 – ENABLEꢀEnable TWI Client
Writing this bit to ‘1’ enables the TWI client.

Bit 7 – DIFꢀData Interrupt Flag
This flag is set to ‘1’ when the client byte transmit or receive operation is completed without any bus errors. This flag
can be set to ‘1’ with an unsuccessful transaction in case of collision detection. More information can be found in the
Collision (COLL) bit description.
The DIF flag can generate a client data interrupt. More information can be found in Data Interrupt Enable (DIEN) bit
from the Client Control A (TWIn.SCTRLA) register.
This flag is automatically cleared when accessing several other TWI registers. The DIF flag can be cleared by
choosing one of the following methods:
1. Writing/Reading the Client Data (TWIn.SDATA) register.
2. Writing to the Command (SCMD) bit field from the Client Control B (TWIn.SCTRLB) register.
Bit 6 – APIFꢀAddress or Stop Interrupt Flag
This flag is set to ‘1’ when the client address has been received or by a Stop condition.
The APIF flag can generate a client address or stop interrupt. More information can be found in the Address or Stop
Interrupt Enable (APIEN) bit from the Client Control A (TWIn.SCTRLA) register.
This flag can be cleared by choosing one of the methods described for the DIF flag.
Bit 5 – CLKHOLDꢀClock Hold
When this bit is read as ‘1’, it indicates that the client is currently holding the SCL low, stretching the TWI clock
period.
This bit is set to ‘1’ when an address or data interrupt occurs. Resetting the corresponding interrupt will indirectly set
this bit to ‘0’.
Bit 4 – RXACKꢀReceived Acknowledge
When this flag is read as ‘0’, it indicates that the most recent Acknowledge bit from the host was ACK.
When this flag is read as ‘1’, it indicates that the most recent Acknowledge bit from the host was NACK.
Bit 3 – COLLꢀCollision
When this bit is read as ‘1’, it indicates that the client has not been able to do one of the following:
1. Transmit high bits on the SDA. The Data Interrupt Flag (DIF) will be set to ‘1’ at the end as a result of the
internal completion of an unsuccessful transaction.
2. Transmit the NACK bit. The collision occurs because the client address match already took place, and the
APIF flag is set to ‘1’ as a result.
Writing a ‘1’ to this bit will clear the COLL flag. The flag is automatically cleared if any Start condition (S/Sr) is
detected.
Note:ꢀ The APIF and DIF flags can only generate interrupts whose handlers can be used to check for the collision.
Bit 2 – BUSERRꢀBus Error
The BUSERR flag indicates that an illegal bus operation has occurred. An illegal bus operation is detected if a
protocol violating the Start (S), repeated Start (Sr), or Stop (P) conditions is detected on the TWI bus lines. A Start
condition directly followed by a Stop condition is one example of a protocol violation.
Writing a ‘1’ to this bit will clear the BUSERR flag.

TWI - Two-Wire Interface
The TWI bus error detector is part of the TWI Host circuitry. For the bus errors to be detected by the client, the
TWI Host and the TWI Dual mode must both be enabled, and the main clock frequency must be at least four times
the SCL frequency. The TWI Dual mode can be enabled by writing ‘1’ to the ENABLE bit in the TWIn.DUALCTRL
register, and the TWI Host can be enabled by writing ‘1’ to the ENABLE bit in the TWIn.MCTRLA register.
Bit 1 – DIRꢀRead/Write Direction
This bit indicates the current TWI bus direction. The DIR bit reflects the direction bit value from the last address
packet received from a host TWI device.
When this bit is read as ‘1’, it indicates that a host read operation is in progress.
When this bit is read as ‘0’, it indicates that a host write operation is in progress.
Bit 0 – APꢀAddress or Stop
When the TWI client Address or Stop Interrupt Flag (APIF) is set ‘1’, this bit determines whether the interrupt is due
to an address detection or a Stop condition.

Bits 7:0 – DATA[7:0]ꢀData
This bit field provides access to the client data register.
Reading valid data or writing data to be transmitted can only be achieved when the SCL is held low by the client (i.e.,
when the client CLKHOLD bit is set to ‘1’). It is not necessary to check the Clock Hold (CLKHOLD) bit from the Client
Status (TWIn.SSTATUS) register in software before accessing the SDATA register if the software keeps track of the
present protocol state by using interrupts or observing the interrupt flags.
If the Smart Mode Enable (SMEN) bit in the Client Control A (TWIn.SCTRLA) register is set to ‘1’, a read access
to the SDATA register, when the clock hold is active, auto-triggers bus operations and will command the client to
perform an acknowledge action. This is dependent on the setting of the Acknowledge Action (ACKACT) bit from the
Client Control B (TWIn.SCTRLB) register.

Bits 7:1 – ADDRMASK[6:0]ꢀAddress Mask
The ADDRMASK bit field acts as a second address match or an address mask register depending on the ADDREN
bit.
If the ADDREN bit is written to ‘0’, the ADDRMASK bit field can be loaded with a 7-bit Client Address mask. Each
of the bits in the Client Address Mask (TWIn.SADDRMASK) register can mask (disable) the corresponding address
bits in the TWI Client Address (TWIn.SADDR) register. When a bit from the mask is written to ‘1’, the address match
logic ignores the comparison between the incoming address bit and the corresponding bit in the Client Address
(TWIn.SADDR) register. In other words, masked bits will always match, making it possible to recognize the ranges of
addresses.
If the ADDREN bit is written to ‘1’, the Client Address Mask (TWIn.SADDRMASK) register can be loaded with a
second client address in addition to the Client Address (TWIn.SADDR) register. In this mode, the client will have two
unique addresses, one in the Client Address (TWIn.SADDR) register and the other one in the Client Address Mask
(TWIn.SADDRMASK) register.
Bit 0 – ADDRENꢀAddress Mask Enable
If this bit is written to ‘0’, the TWIn.SADDRMASK register acts as a mask to the TWIn.SADDR register.
If this bit is written to ‘1’, the client address match logic responds to the two unique addresses in the client
TWIn.SADDR and TWIn.SADDRMASK registers.

26.2
Overview
A Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) takes a data stream of bytes from the NVM (either the entire Flash, only the Boot
section, or both the Boot section and the application code section) and generates a checksum. The CRC peripheral
(CRCSCAN) can be used to detect errors in the program memory.
The last location in the section to check has to contain the correct pre-calculated 16-bit checksum for comparison.
If the checksum calculated by the CRCSCAN and the pre-calculated checksums match, a status bit is set. If they
do not match, the Status register (CRCSCAN.STATUS) will indicate that it failed. The user can choose to let the
CRCSCAN generate a Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI) if the checksums do not match.
An n-bit CRC applied to a data block of arbitrary length will detect any single alteration (error burst) up to n bits in
length. For longer error bursts a fraction 1-2-n will be detected.
The CRC generator supports CRC-16-CCITT.
Polynomial:
•
CRC-16-CCITT: x16 + x12 + x5 + 1
The CRC reads byte-by-byte the content of the section(s) it is set up to check, starting with byte 0, and generates a
new checksum per byte. The byte is sent through a shift register as depicted below, starting with the Most Significant
bit. If the last bytes in the section contain the correct checksum, the CRC will pass. See 26.3.2.1 Checksum for how
to place the checksum. The initial value of the Checksum register is 0xFFFF.

Functional Description
26.3.1 Initialization
To enable a CRC in software (or via the debugger):
1. Write the Source (SRC) bit field of the Control B register (CRCSCAN.CTRLB) to select the desired mode and
source settings.
2. Enable the CRCSCAN by writing a ‘1’ to the ENABLE bit in the Control A register (CRCSCAN.CTRLA).
3. The CRC will start after three cycles. The CPU will continue executing during these three cycles.
The CRCSCAN can be configured to perform a code memory scan before the device leaves Reset. If this check fails,
the CPU is not allowed to start normal code execution. This feature is enabled and controlled by the CRCSRC field in
FUSE.SYSCFG0, see the Fuses chapter for more information.
If this feature is enabled, a successful CRC check will have the following outcome:
•
•
•
•
Normal code execution starts
The ENABLE bit in CRCSCAN.CTRLA will be ‘1’
The SRC bit field in CRCSCAN.CTRLB will reflect the checked section(s)
The OK flag in CRCSCAN.STATUS will be ‘1’
If this feature is enabled, a non-successful CRC check will have the following outcome:
•
•
•
•
•
Normal code execution does not start, the CPU will hang executing no code
The ENABLE bit in CRCSCAN.CTRLA will be ‘1’
The SRC bit field in CRCSCAN.CTRLB will reflect the checked section(s)
The OK flag in CRCSCAN.STATUS will be ‘0’
This condition may be observed using the debug interface
26.3.2 Operation
When the CRC is operating in Priority mode, the CRC peripheral has priority access to the Flash and will stall the
CPU until completed.
In Priority mode the CRC fetches a new word (16-bit) on every third main clock cycle, or when the CRC peripheral is
configured to do a scan from start-up.
26.3.2.1 Checksum
The pre-calculated checksum must be present in the last location of the section to be checked. If the BOOT section
is to be checked, the checksum must be saved in the last bytes of the BOOT section, and similarly for APPLICATION
and the entire Flash. Table 26-1 shows explicitly how the checksum must be stored for the different sections. Also,

Name
Vector Description
Conditions
NMI
Non-Maskable Interrupt
CRC failure
When the interrupt condition occurs the OK flag in the Status (CRCSCAN.STATUS) register is cleared to ‘0’.
A Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI) is enabled by writing a ‘1’ to the respective Enable (NMIEN) bit in the Control A
(CRCSCAN.CTRLA) register, but can only be disabled with a System Reset. An NMI is generated when the OK
flag in the CRCSCAN.STATUS register is cleared, and the NMIEN bit is ‘1’. The NMI request remains active until a
System Reset and cannot be disabled.
An NMI can be triggered even if interrupts are not globally enabled.
26.3.4 Sleep Mode Operation
CRCSCAN is halted in all Sleep modes. In all CPU Sleep modes, the CRCSCAN peripheral is halted and will resume
operation when the CPU wakes up.
The CRCSCAN starts operation three cycles after writing the EN bit in CRCSCAN.CTRLA. During these three cycles,
it is possible to enter Sleep mode. In this case:
1. The CRCSCAN will not start until the CPU is woken up.
2. Any interrupt handler will execute after CRCSCAN has finished.
26.3.5 Debug Operation
Whenever the debugger reads or writes a peripheral or memory location, the CRCSCAN will be disabled.
If the CRCSCAN is busy when the debugger accesses the device, the CRCSCAN will restart the ongoing operation
when the debugger accesses an internal register or when the debugger disconnects.
The BUSY bit in the Status (CRCSCAN.STATUS) register will read ‘1’ if the CRCSCAN was busy when the debugger
caused it to disable, but it will not actively check any section as long as the debugger keeps it disabled. There are
synchronized CRC status bits in the debugger's internal register space, which can be read by the debugger without
disabling the CRCSCAN. Reading the debugger's internal CRC status bits will make sure that the CRCSCAN is
enabled.
It is possible to write the CRCSCAN.STATUS register directly from the debugger:
•
BUSY bit in CRCSCAN.STATUS:
– Writing the BUSY bit to ‘0’ will stop the ongoing CRC operation (so that the CRCSCAN does not restart its
operation when the debugger allows it).
– Writing the BUSY bit to ‘1’ will make the CRC start a single check with the settings in the Control B
(CRCSCAN.CTRLB) register, but not until the debugger allows it.
As long as the BUSY bit in CRCSCAN.STATUS is ‘1’, CRCSCAN.CTRLB and the Non-Maskable Interrupt
Enable (NMIEN) bit in the Control A (CRCSCAN.CTRLA) register cannot be altered.
OK bit in CRCSCAN.STATUS:

– Writing the OK bit to ‘0’ can trigger a Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI) if the NMIEN bit in CRCSCAN.CTRLA
is ‘1’. If an NMI has been triggered, no writes to the CRCSCAN are allowed.
– Writing the OK bit to ‘1’ will make the OK bit read as ‘1’ when the BUSY bit in CRCSCAN.STATUS is ‘0’.
Writes to CRCSCAN.CTRLA and CRCSCAN.CTRLB from the debugger are treated in the same way as writes from
the CPU.

Writing this bit to ‘1’ resets the CRCSCAN peripheral. The CRCSCAN Control registers and Status register
(CRCSCAN.CTRLA, CRCSCAN.CTRLB, CRCSCAN.STATUS) will be cleared one clock cycle after the RESET bit is
written to ‘1’.
If NMIEN is ‘0’, this bit is writable both when the CRCSCAN is busy (the BUSY bit in CRCSCAN.STATUS is ‘1’) and
not busy (the BUSY bit is ‘0’), and will take effect immediately.
If NMIEN is ‘1’, this bit is only writable when the CRCSCAN is not busy (the BUSY bit in CRCSCAN.STATUS is ‘0’).
The RESET bit is a strobe bit.
Bit 1 – NMIENꢀEnable NMI Trigger
When this bit is written to ‘1’, any CRC failure will trigger an NMI.
This bit can only be cleared by a system Reset - it is not cleared by a write to the RESET bit.
This bit can only be written to ‘1’ when the CRCSCAN is not busy (the BUSY bit in CRCSCAN.STATUS is ‘0’).
Bit 0 – ENABLEꢀEnable CRCSCAN
Writing this bit to ‘1’ enables the CRCSCAN peripheral with the current settings. It will stay ‘1’ even after a CRC
check has completed, but writing it to ‘1’ again will start a new check.
Writing the bit to ‘0’ has no effect
The CRCSCAN can be configured to run a scan during the MCU start-up sequence to verify the Flash sections
before letting the CPU start normal code execution (see the 26.3.1 Initialization section). If this feature is enabled,
the ENABLE bit will read as ‘1’ when normal code execution starts.
To see whether the CRCSCAN peripheral is busy with an ongoing check, poll the BUSY bit in the Status register
(CRCSCAN.STATUS).

Overview
The Configurable Custom Logic (CCL) is a programmable logic peripheral which can be connected to the device
pins, to events, or to other internal peripherals. The CCL can serve as ‘glue logic’ between the device peripherals
and external devices. The CCL can eliminate the need for external logic components, and can also help the designer
to overcome real-time constraints by combining Core Independent Peripherals (CIPs) to handle the most time-critical
parts of the application independent of the CPU.
The CCL peripheral provides a number of Look-up Tables (LUTs). Each LUT consists of three inputs, a truth table, a
synchronizer/filter, and an edge detector. Each LUT can generate an output as a user programmable logic expression
with three inputs. The output is generated from the inputs using the combinatorial logic and can be filtered to remove
spikes. The CCL can be configured to generate an interrupt request on changes in the LUT outputs.
Neighboring LUTs can be combined to perform specific operations. A sequencer can be used for generating complex
waveforms.

Functional Description
27.3.1 Operation
27.3.1.1 Enable-Protected Configuration
The configuration of the LUTs and sequencers is enable-protected, meaning that they can only be configured when
the corresponding even LUT is disabled (ENABLE=‘0’in the LUT n Control A (CCL.LUTnCTRLA) register). This is a
mechanism to suppress the undesired output from the CCL under (re-)configuration.
The following bits and registers are enable-protected:
•
•
Sequencer Selection (SEQSEL) in the Sequencer Control n (CCL.SEQCTRLn) register
LUT n Control x (CCL.LUTnCTRLx) registers, except the ENABLE bit in CCL.LUTnCTRLA
The enable-protected bits in the CCL.LUTnCTRLx registers can be written at the same time as ENABLE in
CCL.LUTnCTRLA is written to ‘1’, but not at the same time as ENABLE is written to ‘0’.
The enable protection is denoted by the enable-protected property in the register description.
27.3.1.2 Enabling, Disabling, and Resetting
The CCL is enabled by writing a ‘1’to the ENABLE bit in the Control A (CCL.CTRLA) register. The CCL is disabled
by writing a ‘0’to that ENABLE bit.
Each LUT is enabled by writing a ‘1’to the LUT Enable (ENABLE) bit in the LUT n Control A (CCL.LUTnCTRLA)
register. Each LUT is disabled by writing a ‘0’to the ENABLE bit in CCL.LUTnCTRLA.
27.3.1.3 Truth Table Logic
The truth table in each LUT unit can generate a combinational logic output as a function of up to three inputs
(LUTn-TRUTHSEL[2:0]). It is possible to realize any 3-input boolean logic function using one LUT.

Event Input Selection (EVENTx)
Events from the Event System can be used as inputs to the LUTs by writing to the INSELn bit groups in the LUT n
Control B and C registers.
I/O Pin Inputs (IO)
When selecting the IO option, the LUT input will be connected to its corresponding I/O pin. Refer to the I/O
Multiplexing section in the data sheet for more details about where the LUTn-INy pins are located.
Peripherals
The different peripherals on the three input lines of each LUT are selected by writing to the Input Select (INSEL) bits
in the LUT Control (LUTnCTRLB and LUTnCTRLC) registers.
27.3.1.5 Filter
By default, the LUT output is a combinational function of the LUT inputs. This may cause some short glitches when
the inputs change the value. These glitches can be removed by clocking through filters if demanded by application
needs.
The Filter Selection (FILTSEL) bits in the LUT n Control A (CCL.LUTnCTRLA) registers define the digital filter
options.
When FILTSEL=SYNCH, the output is synchronized with CLK_LUTn. The output will be delayed by two positive
CLK_LUTn edges.
When FILTSEL=FILTER, only the input that is persistent for more than two positive CLK_LUTn edges will pass
through the gated flip-flop to the output. The output will be delayed by four positive CLK_LUTn edges.
One clock cycle later, after the corresponding LUT is disabled, all internal filter logic is cleared.

27.3.1.6 Edge Detector
The edge detector can be used to generate a pulse when detecting a rising edge on its input. To detect a falling edge,
the TRUTH table can be programmed to provide an inverted output.
The edge detector is enabled by writing ‘1’to the Edge Detection (EDGEDET) bit in the LUTn Control A
(CCL.LUTnCTRLA) register. To avoid unpredictable behavior, a valid filter option must be enabled.
The edge detection is disabled by writing a ‘0’to EDGEDET in CCL.LUTnCTRLA. After disabling a LUT, the
corresponding internal edge detector logic is cleared one clock cycle later.

27.3.1.7 Sequencer Logic
Each LUT pair can be connected to a sequencer. The sequencer can function as either D flip-flop, JK flip-flop,
gated D latch, or RS latch. The function is selected by writing the Sequencer Selection (SEQSEL) bit group in the
Sequencer Control (CCL.SEQCTRLn) register.
The sequencer receives its input from either the LUT, filter or edge detector, depending on the configuration.
A sequencer is clocked by the same clock as the corresponding even LUT. The clock source is selected by the Clock
Source (CLKSRC) bit group in the LUT n Control A (CCL.LUTnCTRLA) register.
The flip-flop output (OUT) is refreshed on the rising edge of the clock. When the even LUT is disabled, the latch is
cleared asynchronously. The flip-flop Reset signal (R) is kept enabled for one clock cycle.
Gated D Flip-Flop (DFF)
The D input is driven by the even LUT output, and the G input is driven by the odd LUT output.

27.3.1.8 Clock Source Settings
The filter, edge detector, and sequencer are, by default, clocked by the peripheral clock (CLK_PER). It is also
possible to use other clock inputs (CLK_LUTn) to clock these blocks. This is configured by writing the Clock Source
(CLKSRC) bits in the LUT Control A register.

LUTn
When the Clock Source (CLKSRC) bit is written to 0x1, LUTn-TRUTHSEL[2] is used to clock the corresponding filter
and edge detector (CLK_LUTn). The sequencer is clocked by the CLK_LUTn of the even LUT in the pair. When
CLKSRC is written to 0x1, LUTn-TRUTHSEL[2] is treated as OFF (low) in the TRUTH table.
The CCL peripheral must be disabled while changing the clock source to avoid undefined outputs from the peripheral.

CCL - Configurable Custom Logic
When an interrupt condition occurs, the corresponding interrupt flag is set in the peripheral’s Interrupt Flags
(peripheral.INTFLAGS) register.
An interrupt source is enabled or disabled by writing to the corresponding enable bit in the peripheral’s Interrupt
Control (peripheral.INTCTRL) register.
An interrupt request is generated when the corresponding interrupt source is enabled, and the interrupt flag is set.
The interrupt request remains active until the interrupt flag is cleared. See the peripheral’s INTFLAGS register for
details on how to clear interrupt flags.
When several interrupt request conditions are supported by an interrupt vector, the interrupt requests are ORed
together into one combined interrupt request to the interrupt controller. The user must read the peripheral’s
INTFLAGS register to determine which of the interrupt conditions are present.

The CCL can generate the events shown in the table below.

The event signals are passed directly to the LUTs without synchronization or input detection logic.
Two event users are available for each LUT. They can be selected as LUTn inputs by writing to the INSELn bit groups
in the LUT n Control B and Control C (CCL.LUTnCTRLB or LUTnCTRLC) registers.
Refer to the Event System (EVSYS) section for more details regarding the event types and the EVSYS configuration.
27.3.4 Sleep Mode Operation
Writing the Run In Standby (RUNSTDBY) bit in the Control A (CCL.CTRLA) register to ‘1’will allow the selected
clock source to be enabled in Standby sleep mode.
If RUNSTDBY is ‘0’, the peripheral clock will be disabled in Standby sleep mode. If the filter, edge detector, and/or
sequencer are enabled, the LUT output will be forced to ‘0’in Standby sleep mode. In Idle sleep mode, the
TRUTH table decoder will continue the operation, and the LUT output will be refreshed accordingly, regardless of the
RUNSTDBY bit.
If the Clock Source (CLKSRC) bit in the LUT n Control A (CCL.LUTnCTRLA) register is written to ‘1’, the LUTn-
TRUTHSEL[2] will always clock the filter, edge detector, and sequencer. The availability of the LUTn-TRUTHSEL[2]
clock in sleep modes will depend on the sleep settings of the peripheral used.

Overview
The analog comparator (AC) compares the voltage levels on two inputs and gives a digital output based on
this comparison. The AC can be configured to generate interrupt requests and/or events upon several different
combinations of input change.
The dynamic behavior of the AC can be adjusted by a hysteresis feature. The hysteresis can be customized to
optimize the operation for each application.
The input selection includes analog port pins and internally generated inputs. The analog comparator output state
can also be the output on a pin for use by external devices.
An AC has one positive input and one negative input. The digital output from the comparator is '1' when the
difference between the positive and the negative input voltage is positive, and '0' otherwise.

Functional Description
28.3.1 Initialization
For a basic operation, follow these steps:
•
•
Configure the desired input pins in the port peripheral
Select the positive and negative input sources by writing the Positive and Negative Input MUX Selection
(MUXPOS and MUXNEG) bit fields in the MUX Control A (ACn.MUXCTRLA) register
•
Optional: Enable the output to pin by writing a '1' to the Output Pad Enable (OUTEN) bit in the Control A
(ACn.CTRLA) register
•
Enable the AC by writing a '1' to the ENABLE bit in ACn.CTRLA
During the start-up time after enabling the AC, the output of the AC may be invalid.
The start-up time of the AC by itself is at most 2.5 µs. If an internal reference is used, the reference start-up time is
normally longer than the AC start-up time.
To avoid the pin being tri-stated when the AC is disabled, the OUT pin must be configured as output in PORTx.DIR.
28.3.2 Operation
28.3.2.1 Input Hysteresis
Applying an input hysteresis helps to prevent constant toggling of the output when the noise-afflicted input signals are
close to each other.
The input hysteresis can either be disabled or have one of three levels. The hysteresis is configured by writing to the
Hysteresis Mode Select (HYSMODE) bit field in the Control A (ACn.CTRLA) register.
28.3.2.2 Input Sources
An AC has one positive and one negative input. The inputs can be pins and internal sources, such as a voltage
reference.
Each input is selected by writing to the Positive and Negative Input MUX Selection (MUXPOS and MUXNEG) bit field
in the MUX Control A (ACn.MUXCTRLA) register.
28.3.2.2.1 Pin Inputs
The following analog input pins on the port can be selected as input to the analog comparator:

AC - Analog Comparator
28.3.2.3 Power Modes
For power sensitive applications, the AC provides a low-power mode with lower power consumption and increased
propagation delay. The low-power mode is selected by writing the Low Power Mode (LPMODE) bit in the Control A
(ACn.CTRLA) register to ‘1’.
28.3.2.4 Signal Compare and Interrupt
After the successful initialization of the AC and after configuring the desired properties, the result of the comparison is
continuously updated and is available for the application software, for the Event System, or on a pin.
The AC can generate a comparator interrupt, COMP, and can request this interrupt on either rising, falling, or both
edges of the toggling comparator output. This is configured by writing to the Interrupt Modes (INTMODE) bit field in
the Control A (ACn.CTRLA) register.
The interrupt is enabled by writing a ‘1’ to the Analog Comparator Interrupt Enable (COMP) bit in the Interrupt Control
(ACn.INTCTRL) register.
28.3.3 Events
The AC can generate the events described in the table below.

When an interrupt condition occurs, the corresponding Interrupt flag is set in the Status (ACn.STATUS) register.
An interrupt source is enabled or disabled by writing to the corresponding bit in the peripheral's Interrupt Control
(ACn.INTCTRL) register.
An interrupt request is generated when the corresponding interrupt source is enabled and the Interrupt flag is set.
The interrupt request remains active until the Interrupt flag is cleared. See the ACn.STATUS register description for
details on how to clear the Interrupt flags.
28.3.5 Sleep Mode Operation
In Idle sleep mode the AC will continue to operate as normal.
In Standby sleep mode the AC is disabled by default. If the Run in Standby (RUNSTDBY) bit in the Control A
(ACn.CTRLA) register is written to '1', the AC will continue to operate as normal with event, interrupt and AC output
on pad even if the CLK_PER is not running in Standby sleep mode.
In Power-Down sleep mode the AC and the output to the pad are disabled.

Overview
The Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) peripheral produces 10-bit results. The ADC input can either be internal (e.g.,
a voltage reference) or external through the analog input pins. The ADC is connected to an analog multiplexer, which
allows the selection of multiple single-ended voltage inputs. The single-ended voltage inputs refer to 0V (GND).
The ADC supports sampling in bursts where a configurable number of conversion results are accumulated into a
single ADC result (Sample Accumulation). Further, a sample delay can be configured to tune the ADC sampling
frequency associated with a single burst. This is to tune the sampling frequency away from any harmonic noise
aliased with the ADC sampling frequency (within the burst) from the sampled signal. An automatic sampling delay
variation feature can be used to randomize this delay to slightly change the time between samples.
The ADC input signal is fed through a sample-and-hold circuit that ensures that the input voltage to the ADC is held
at a constant level during sampling.
The selectable voltage references from the internal Voltage Reference (VREF) peripheral, are VDD supply voltage, or
external VREF pin (VREFA).
A window compare feature is available for monitoring the input signal and can be configured to only trigger an
interrupt on user-defined thresholds for under, over, inside, or outside a window, with minimum software intervention
required.

The analog input channel is selected by writing to the MUXPOS bits in the MUXPOS (ADCn.MUXPOS) register.
Any of the ADC input pins, GND, internal Voltage Reference (VREF), or temperature sensor, can be selected as
a single-ended input to the ADC. The ADC is enabled by writing a ‘1’ to the ADC ENABLE bit in the Control A
(ADCn.CTRLA) register. The voltage reference and input channel selections will not go into effect before the ADC is
enabled. The ADC does not consume power when the ENABLE bit in ADCn.CTRLA is ‘0’.
The ADC generates a 10-bit result that can be read from the Result (ADCn.RES) Register. The result is presented
right-adjusted.

Functional Description
29.3.1 Initialization
The following steps are recommended to initialize the ADC operation:
1. Configure the resolution by writing to the Resolution Selection (RESSEL) bit in the Control A (ADCn.CTRLA)
register.
2. Optional: Enable the Free-Running mode by writing a ‘1’ to the Free-Running (FREERUN) bit in
ADCn.CTRLA.
3. Optional: Configure the number of samples to be accumulated per conversion by writing the Sample
Accumulation Number Select (SAMPNUM) bits in the Control B (ADCn.CTRLB) register.
4. Configure a voltage reference by writing to the Reference Selection (REFSEL) bit in the Control C
(ADCn.CTRLC) register. The default is the internal voltage reference of the device (VREF, as configured there).
5. Configure the CLK_ADC by writing to the Prescaler (PRESC) bit field in the Control C (ADCn.CTRLC) register.
6. Configure an input by writing to the MUXPOS bit field in the MUXPOS (ADCn.MUXPOS) register.
7. Optional: Enable Start Event input by writing a ‘1’ to the Start Event Input (STARTEI) bit in the Event Control
(ADCn.EVCTRL) register. Configure the Event System accordingly.

8. Enable the ADC by writing a ‘1’ to the ENABLE bit in ADCn.CTRLA.
Following these steps will initialize the ADC for basic measurements, which can be triggered by an event (if
configured) or by writing a ‘1’ to the Start Conversion (STCONV) bit in the Command (ADCn.COMMAND) register.
29.3.1.1 I/O Lines and Connections
The I/O pins AINx and VREF are configured by the port - I/O Pin Controller.
The digital input buffer should be disabled on the pin used as input for the ADC to disconnect the digital domain from
the analog domain to obtain the best possible ADC results. This is configured by the PORT peripheral.
29.3.2 Operation
29.3.2.1 Starting a Conversion
Once the input channel is selected by writing to the MUXPOS (ADCn.MUXPOS) register, a conversion is triggered
by writing a ‘1’ to the ADC Start Conversion (STCONV) bit in the Command (ADCn.COMMAND) register. This bit is
‘1’ as long as the conversion is in progress. In Single Conversion mode, STCONV is cleared by hardware when the
conversion is completed.
If a different input channel is selected while a conversion is in progress, the ADC will finish the current conversion
before changing the channel.
Depending on the accumulator setting, the conversion result is from a single sensing operation or a sequence of
accumulated samples. Once the triggered operation is finished, the Result Ready (RESRDY) flag in the Interrupt Flag
(ADCn.INTFLAG) register is set. The corresponding interrupt vector is executed if the Result Ready Interrupt Enable
(RESRDY) bit in the Interrupt Control (ADCn.INTCTRL) register is ‘1’ and the Global Interrupt Enable bit is ‘1’.
A single conversion can be started by writing a ‘1’ to the STCONV bit in ADCn.COMMAND. The STCONV bit can be
used to determine if a conversion is in progress. The STCONV bit will be set during a conversion and cleared once
the conversion is complete.
The RESRDY interrupt flag in ADCn.INTFLAG will be set even if the specific interrupt is disabled, allowing software
to check for finished conversion by polling the flag. A conversion can thus be triggered without causing an interrupt.
Alternatively, a conversion can be triggered by an event. This is enabled by writing a ‘1’ to the Start Event Input
(STARTEI) bit in the Event Control (ADCn.EVCTRL) register. Any incoming event routed to the ADC through the
Event System (EVSYS) will trigger an ADC conversion. This provides a method to start conversions at predictable
intervals or specific conditions.
The event trigger input is edge sensitive. When an event occurs, STCONV in ADCn.COMMAND is set. STCONV will
be cleared when the conversion is complete.
In Free-Running mode, the first conversion is started by writing the STCONV bit to ‘1’ in ADCn.COMMAND. A new
conversion cycle is started immediately after the previous conversion cycle has completed. A conversion complete
will set the RESRDY flag in ADCn.INTFLAGS.

ADC clock source
(CLK_ADC)
The ADC requires an input clock frequency between 50 kHz and 1.5 MHz for maximum resolution. If a lower
resolution than ten bits is selected, the input clock frequency to the ADC can be higher than 1.5 MHz to get a higher
sample rate.
The ADC module contains a prescaler which generates the ADC clock (CLK_ADC) from any CPU clock (CLK_PER)
above 100 kHz. The prescaling is selected by writing to the Prescaler (PRESC) bits in the Control C (ADCn.CTRLC)
register. The prescaler starts counting from the moment the ADC is switched on by writing a ‘1’ to the ENABLE bit in
ADCn.CTRLA. The prescaler keeps running as long as the ENABLE bit is ‘1’. The prescaler counter is reset to zero
when the ENABLE bit is ‘0’.
When initiating a conversion by writing a ‘1’ to the Start Conversion (STCONV) bit in the Command
(ADCn.COMMAND) register or from an event, the conversion starts at the following rising edge of the CLK_ADC
clock cycle. The prescaler is kept reset as long as there is no ongoing conversion. This assures a fixed delay from
the trigger to the actual start of a conversion in CLK_PER cycles, as follows:

29.3.2.3 Conversion Timing
A normal conversion takes 13 CLK_ADC cycles. The actual sample-and-hold takes place two CLK_ADC cycles
after the start of a conversion. The start of a conversion is initiated by writing a ‘1’ to the STCONV bit in
ADCn.COMMAND. When a conversion is complete, the result is available in the Result (ADCn.RES) register, and the
Result Ready interrupt flag is set (RESRDY in ADCn.INTFLAG). The interrupt flag will be cleared when the result is
read from the Result registers, or by writing a ‘1’ to the RESRDY bit in ADCn.INTFLAG.

29.3.2.4 Changing Channel or Reference Selection
The MUXPOS bits in the ADCn.MUXPOS register and the REFSEL bits in the ADCn.CTRLC register are buffered
through a temporary register to which the CPU has random access. This ensures that the channel and reference
selections only take place at a safe point during the conversion. The channel and reference selections are
continuously updated until a conversion is started.

ADC - Analog-to-Digital Converter
Once the conversion starts, the channel and reference selections are locked to ensure sufficient sampling time for the
ADC. Continuous updating resumes in the last CLK_ADC clock cycle before the conversion completes (RESRDY in
ADCn.INTFLAGS is set). The conversion starts on the following rising CLK_ADC clock edge after the STCONV bit is
written to ‘1’.
29.3.2.4.1 ADC Input Channels
When changing channel selection, the user must observe the following guidelines to ensure that the correct channel
is selected:
In Single Conversion mode: The channel should be selected before starting the conversion. The channel selection
may be changed one ADC clock cycle after writing ‘1’ to the STCONV bit.
In Free-Running mode: The channel should be selected before starting the first conversion. The channel selection
may be changed one ADC clock cycle after writing ‘1’ to the STCONV bit. Since the next conversion has already
started automatically, the next result will reflect the previous channel selection. The subsequent conversions will
reflect the new channel selection.
The ADC requires a settling time after switching the input channel - refer to the Electrical Characteristics section for
details.
29.3.2.4.2 ADC Voltage Reference
The reference voltage for the ADC (VREF) controls the conversion range of the ADC. Input voltages that exceed the
selected VREF will be converted to the maximum result value of the ADC. For an ideal 10-bit ADC, this value is 0x3FF.
VREF can be selected by writing the Reference Selection (REFSEL) bits in the Control C (ADCn.CTRLC) register as
either VDD, external reference VREFA, or an internal reference from the VREF peripheral. VDD is connected to the ADC
through a passive switch.
When using the external reference voltage VREFA, configure ADCnREFSEL[0:2] in the corresponding VREF.CTRLn
register to the value that is closest, but above the applied reference voltage. For external references higher than 4.3V,
use ADCnREFSEL[0:2] = 0x3.
The internal reference is generated from an internal band gap reference through an internal amplifier, controlled by
the Voltage Reference (VREF) peripheral.
29.3.2.4.3 Analog Input Circuitry
The analog input circuitry is illustrated in Figure 29-7. An analog source applied to ADCn is subjected to the pin
capacitance and input leakage of that pin (represented by IH and IL), regardless of whether that channel is selected
as input for the ADC or not. When the channel 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 with an output impedance of approximately 10 kΩ 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 the source needs to charge the S/H capacitor, which can vary substantially.

where VIN is the voltage on the selected input pin and VREF the selected voltage reference (see description for
REFSEL in ADCn.CTRLC and ADCn.MUXPOS).
29.3.2.6 Temperature Measurement
The temperature measurement is based on an on-chip temperature sensor. For temperature measurement, follow
these steps:
1. Configure the internal voltage reference to 1.1V by configuring the VREF peripheral.
2. Select the internal voltage reference by writing the REFSEL bits in ADCn.CTRLC to 0x0.
3. Select the ADC temperature sensor channel by configuring the MUXPOS (ADCn.MUXPOS) register. This
enables the temperature sensor.
4. In ADCn.CTRLD select INITDLY ≥ 32 µs × f
.
CLK_ADC
5. In ADCn.SAMPCTRL select SAMPLEN ≥ 32 µs × f
6. In ADCn.CTRLC select SAMPCAP = 1.
.
CLK_ADC
7. Acquire the temperature sensor output voltage by starting a conversion.
8. Process the measurement result, as described below.
The measured voltage has a linear relationship to the temperature. Due to process variations, the temperature
sensor output voltage varies between individual devices at the same temperature. The individual compensation
factors are determined during the production test and saved in the Signature Row:
•
•
SIGROW.TEMPSENSE0 is a gain/slope correction
SIGROW.TEMPSENSE1 is an offset correction
To achieve accurate results, the result of the temperature sensor measurement must be processed in the application
software using factory calibration values. The temperature (in Kelvin) is calculated by this rule:
Temp = (((RESH << 8) | RESL) - TEMPSENSE1) * TEMPSENSE0) >> 8
RESH and RESL are the high and low bytes of the Result register (ADCn.RES), and TEMPSENSEn are the
respective values from the Signature row.
It is recommended to follow these steps in user code:
int8_t sigrow_offset = SIGROW.TEMPSENSE1; // Read signed value from signature row
uint8_t sigrow_gain = SIGROW.TEMPSENSE0;
// Read unsigned value from signature row
// ADC conversion result with 1.1 V internal reference
uint16_t adc_reading = 0;
uint32_t temp = adc_reading - sigrow_offset;
temp *= sigrow_gain; // Result might overflow 16 bit variable (10bit+8bit)
temp += 0x80;
temp >>= 8;
// Add 1/2 to get correct rounding on division below
// Divide result to get Kelvin
uint16_t temperature_in_K = temp;
29.3.2.7 Window Comparator Mode
The ADC can raise the WCMP flag in the Interrupt and Flag (ADCn.INTFLAG) register and request an interrupt
(WCMP) when the result of a conversion is above and/or below certain thresholds. The available modes are:
•
•
•
•
The result is under a threshold
The result is over a threshold
The result is inside a window (above a lower threshold, but below the upper one)
The result is outside a window (either under the lower or above the upper threshold)
The thresholds are defined by writing to the Window Comparator Threshold registers (ADCn.WINLT and
ADCn.WINHT). Writing to the Window Comparator mode (WINCM) bit field in the Control E (ADCn.CTRLE) register
selects the conditions when the flag is raised and/or the interrupt is requested.
Assuming the ADC is already configured to run, follow these steps to use the Window Comparator mode:
1. Choose which Window Comparator to use (see the WINCM description in ADCn.CTRLE), and set the required
threshold(s) by writing to ADCn.WINLT and/or ADCn.WINHT.
2. Optional: enable the interrupt request by writing a ‘1’ to the Window Comparator Interrupt Enable (WCMP) bit
in the Interrupt Control (ADCn.INTCTRL) register.
DS40002174C-page 406

© 2021 Microchip Technology Inc.
ATmega3208/3209
ADC - Analog-to-Digital Converter
3. Enable the Window Comparator and select a mode by writing a non-zero value to the WINCM bit field in
ADCn.CTRLE.
When accumulating multiple samples, the comparison between the result and the threshold will happen after the last
sample was acquired. Consequently, the flag is raised only once, after taking the last sample of the accumulation.
29.3.3 Events
An ADC conversion can be triggered automatically by an event input if the Start Event Input (STARTEI) bit in the
Event Control (ADCn.EVCTRL) register is written to ‘1’.
When a new result can be read from the Result (ADCn.RES) register, the ADC will generate a result ready event.
The event is a pulse with a length of one clock period and handled by the Event System (EVSYS). The ADC result
ready event is always generated when the ADC is enabled.

Name
RESRDY Result Ready interrupt
WCMP
Vector Description
Conditions
The conversion result is available in the Result register (ADCn.RES)
Window Comparator interrupt As defined by WINCM in ADCn.CTRLE
When an interrupt condition occurs, the corresponding interrupt flag is set in the peripheral’s Interrupt Flags
(peripheral.INTFLAGS) register.
An interrupt source is enabled or disabled by writing to the corresponding enable bit in the peripheral’s Interrupt
Control (peripheral.INTCTRL) register.
An interrupt request is generated when the corresponding interrupt source is enabled, and the interrupt flag is set.
The interrupt request remains active until the interrupt flag is cleared. See the peripheral’s INTFLAGS register for
details on how to clear interrupt flags.
29.3.5 Sleep Mode Operation
The ADC is by default disabled in Standby sleep mode.
The ADC can stay fully operational in Standby sleep mode if the Run in Standby (RUNSTDBY) bit in the Control A
(ADCn.CTRLA) register is written to ‘1’.
When the device is entering Standby sleep mode when RUNSTDBY is ‘1’, the ADC will stay active, hence any
ongoing conversions will be completed, and interrupts will be executed as configured.
In Standby sleep mode, an ADC conversion must be triggered via the Event System (EVSYS), or the ADC must be
in Free-Running mode with the first conversion triggered by software before entering a sleep mode. The peripheral
clock is requested if needed and is turned off after the conversion is completed.
When an input event trigger occurs, the positive edge will be detected, the Start Conversion (STCONV) bit in the
Command (ADCn.COMMAND) register is set, and the conversion will start. When the conversion is completed,
the Result Ready (RESRDY) flag in the Interrupt Flags (ADCn.INTFLAGS) register is set, and the STCONV bit in
ADCn.COMMAND is cleared.
The reference source and supply infrastructure need time to stabilize when activated in Standby sleep mode.
Configure a delay for the start of the first conversion by writing a non-zero value to the Initial Delay (INITDLY) bits in
the Control D (ADCn.CTRLD) register.
In Power-Down sleep mode, no conversions are possible. Any ongoing conversions are halted and will be resumed
when going out of a sleep mode. At the end of conversion, the Result Ready (RESRDY) flag will be set, but the
content of the result (ADCn.RES) registers is invalid since the ADC was halted in the middle of a conversion.

Bit 4 – ASDVꢀAutomatic Sampling Delay Variation
Writing this bit to ‘1’ enables automatic sampling delay variation between ADC conversions. The purpose of
varying sampling instant is to randomize the sampling instant and thus avoid standing frequency components in
the frequency spectrum. The value of the SAMPDLY bits is automatically incremented by one after each sample.
When the Automatic Sampling Delay Variation is enabled, and the SAMPDLY value reaches 0xF, it wraps around to
0x0.

Bits 3:0 – SAMPDLY[3:0]ꢀSampling Delay Selection
These bits define the delay between consecutive ADC samples. The programmable sampling delay allows modifying
the sampling frequency during hardware accumulation to suppress periodic noise sources that may otherwise disturb
the sampling. The SAMPDLY field can also be modified automatically from one sampling cycle to another, by setting
the ASDV bit. The delay is expressed as CLK_ADC cycles and is given directly by the bit field setting. The sampling
cap is kept open during the delay.

Overview
The Unified Program and Debug Interface (UPDI) is a proprietary interface for external programming and on-chip
debugging of a device.
The UPDI supports programming of nonvolatile memory (NVM) space; FLASH, EEPROM, fuses, lockbits, and the
user row. In addition, the UPDI can access the entire I/O and data space of the device. See the NVM controller
documentation for programming via the NVM controller and executing NVM controller commands.
Programming and debugging are done through the UPDI Physical interface (UPDI PHY), which is a one-wire UART-
based half duplex interface using a dedicated pin for data reception and transmission. Clocking of UPDI PHY is done
by the internal oscillator. The UPDI access layer grants access to the bus matrix, with memory mapped access to
system blocks such as memories, NVM, and peripherals.
The Asynchronous System Interface (ASI) provides direct interface access to On-Chip Debugging (OCD), NVM, and
System Management features. This gives the debugger direct access to system information, without requesting bus
access.

30.2.2 Clocks
The PHY layer and the ACC layer can operate on different clock domains. The PHY layer clock is derived from the
dedicated internal oscillator, and the ACC layer clock is the same as the peripheral clock. There is a synchronization
boundary between the PHY and the ACC layer, which ensures correct operation between the clock domains. The
UPDI clock output frequency is selected through the ASI, and the default UPDI clock start-up frequency is 4 MHz
after enabling or resetting the UPDI. The UPDI clock frequency can be changed by writing to the UPDI Clock Divider
Select (UPDICLKSEL) bit field in the ASI Control A (UPDI.ASI_CTRLA) register.

Functional Description
30.3.1 Principle of Operation
Communication through the UPDI is based on standard UART communication, using a fixed frame format, and
automatic baud rate detection for clock and data recovery. In addition to the data frame, there are several control
frames which are important to the communication. The supported frame formats are presented in Figure 30-3.

Data
Frame
Data frame consists of one Start bit (always low), eight data bits, one parity bit (even parity), and two
Stop bits (always high). If the Parity bit, or Stop bits have an incorrect value, an error will be detected and
signalized by the UPDI. The parity bit-check in the UPDI can be disabled by writing the Parity Disable
(PARD) bit in UPDI.CTRLA, in which case the parity generation from the debugger can be ignored.
IDLE
Frame
Special frame that consists of 12 high bits. This is the same as keeping the transmission line in an Idle
state.
BREAK
Special frame that consists of 12 low bits. The BREAK frame is used to reset the UPDI back to its default
state and is typically used for error recovery.
SYNCH
The SYNCH frame (0x55) is used by the Baud Rate Generator to set the baud rate for the coming
transmission. A SYNCH character is always expected by the UPDI in front of every new instruction, and
after a successful BREAK has been transmitted.
ACK
The Acknowledge (ACK) character is transmitted from the UPDI whenever an ST or STS instruction
has successfully crossed the synchronization boundary and have gained bus access. When an ACK is
received by the debugger, the next transmission can start.
30.3.1.1 UPDI UART
All transmission and reception of serial data on the UPDI is achieved using the UPDI frames presented in Figure
30-3. Communication is initiated from the debugger/programmer side, and every transmission must start with a
SYNCH character upon which the UPDI can recover the transmission baud rate, and store this setting for the coming
data. The baud rate set by the SYNCH character will be used for both reception and transmission for the instruction
byte received after the SYNCH. See 30.3.3 UPDI Instruction Set for details on when the next SYNCH character is
expected in the instruction stream.
There is no writable baud rate register in the UPDI, so the baud rate sampled from the SYNCH character is used for
data recovery by sampling the Start bit, and performing a majority vote on the middle samples.
The transmission baud rate of the PDI PHY is related to the selected UPDI clock, which can be adjusted by UPDI
Clock Select (UPDICLKSEL) bit in UPDI.ASI_CTRLA. See Table 30-1 for recommended maximum and minimum
baud rate settings. The receive and transmit baud rates are always the same within the accuracy of the auto-baud.

30.3.1.2 BREAK Character
The BREAK character is used to reset the internal state of the UPDI to the default setting. This is useful if the UPDI
enters an error state due to a communication error, or when the synchronization between the debugger and the UPDI
is lost.
To ensure that a BREAK is successfully received by the UPDI in all cases, the debugger should send two
consecutive BREAK characters. If a single BREAK is sent while the UPDI is receiving or transmitting (possibly at
a very low baud rate), the UPDI will not detect it. However, this will cause a frame error (RX) or contention error (TX),
and abort the ongoing operation. Then, the UPDI will detect the next BREAK. The first BREAK will be detected if the
UPDI is idle.
No SYNCH character is required before the BREAK because the BREAK is used to reset the UPDI from any state.
This means that the UPDI will sample the BREAK with the last baud rate setting and be derived from the last valid
SYNCH character. If the communication error was caused by an incorrect sampling of the SYNCH character, the
device will not know the baud rate. To ensure that the BREAK will be detected in all cases, the recommended BREAK
duration should be 12-bit times the bit duration at the lowest possible baud rate (8192 times the CLK_PER) as shown
in Table 30-3).

30.3.1.3 SYNCH Character
The SYNCH character has eight bits and follows the regular UPDI frame format. It has a fixed value of 0x55. The
SYNCH character has two main purposes:
1. It acts as the enabling character for the UPDI after a disable.
2. It is used by the Baud Rate Generator to set the baud rate for the subsequent transmission. If an invalid
SYNCH character is sent, the next transmission will not be sampled correctly.
30.3.1.3.1 SYNCH in One-Wire Mode
The SYNCH character is used before each new instruction. When using the REPEATinstruction, the SYNCH
character is expected only before the first instruction after REPEAT.
The SYNCH is a known character which, through its property of toggling for each bit, allows the UPDI to measure
how many UPDI clock cycles are needed to sample the 8-bit SYNCH pattern. The information obtained through the
sampling is used to provide Asynchronous Clock Recovery and Asynchronous Data Recovery on reception, and to
keep the baud rate of the connected programmer when doing transmit operations.

30.3.2 Operation
The UPDI must be enabled before the UART communication can start.
30.3.2.1 UPDI Enable
The dedicated UPDI pad is configured as an input with pull-up.When the pull-up is detected by a connected
debugger, the UPDI enable sequence, as depicted below, is started.

When the pull-up is detected, the debugger initiates the enable sequence by driving the line low for a duration of
tDeb0
.
The negative edge is detected by the UPDI, which starts the UPDI clock. The UPDI will continue to drive the line low
until the clock is stable and ready for the UPDI to use. The duration of tUPDI will vary, depending on the status of the
oscillator when the UPDI is enabled. After this duration, the data line will be released by the UPDI and pulled high.
When the debugger detects that the line is high, the initial SYNCH character (0x55) must be transmitted to
synchronize the UPDI communication data rate. If the Start bit of the SYNCH character is not sent within maximum
tDebZ, the UPDI will disable itself, and the UPDI enabling sequence must be re-initiated. The UPDI is disabled if the
timing is violated to avoid the UPDI being enabled unintentionally.
After successful SYNCH character transmission, the first instruction frame can be transmitted.
30.3.2.2 UPDI Disable
Any programming or debug session should be terminated by writing the UPDI Disable (UPDIDIS) bit in UPDI.CTRLB.
Writing this bit will reset the UPDI including any decoded KEYs (see 30.3.7 Enabling of Key Protected Interfaces)
DS40002174C-page 431

UPDI - Unified Program and Debug Interface
and disable the oscillator request for the module. If the disable operation is not performed, the UPDI and the
oscillators request will remain enabled. This causes power consumption increased for the application.
During the enable sequence the UPDI can disable itself in case of a faulty enable sequence. There are two cases
that will cause an automatic disable:
•
•
A SYNCH character is not sent within 13.5 ms after the initial enable pulse described in 30.3.2.1 UPDI Enable.
The first SYNCH character after an initiated enable is too short or too long to be detected as a valid SYNCH
character. See Table 30-1 for recommended baud rate operating ranges.
30.3.2.3 UPDI Communication Error Handling
The UPDI contains a comprehensive error detection system that provides information to the debugger when
recovering from an error scenario. The error detection consists of detecting physical transmission errors like parity
error, contention error, and frame error, to more high-level errors like access time-out error. See the UPDI Error
Signature (PESIG) bit field in the Status B (UPDI.STATUSB) register for an overview of the available error signatures.
Whenever the UPDI detects an error, it will immediately enter an internal Error state to avoid unwanted system
communication. In the Error state, the UPDI will ignore all incoming data requests, except when a BREAK character
is received. The following procedure must always be applied when recovering from an Error condition.
1. Send a BREAK character. See section BREAK Character for recommended BREAK character handling.
2. Send a SYNCH character at the desired baud rate for the next data transfer.
3. Execute a Load Control Status (LDCS) instruction to read the UPDI Error Signature (PESIG) bit field in the
Status B (UPDI.STATUSB) register and get the information about the occurred error.
4. The UPDI has now recovered from the Error state and is ready to receive the next SYNCH character and
instruction.
30.3.2.4 Direction Change
To ensure correct timing for a half-duplex UART operation, the UPDI has a built-in guard time mechanism to relax the
timing when changing direction from RX to TX mode. The guard time is represented by Idle bits inserted before the
next Start bit of the first response byte is transmitted. The number of Idle bits can be configured through the Guard
Time Value (GTVAL) bit field in the Control A (UPDI.CTRLA) register. The duration of each Idle bit is given by the
baud rate used by the current transmission.

The UPDI guard time is the minimum Idle time that the connected debugger will experience when waiting for data
from the UPDI. The maximum Idle time is the same as time-out. The Idle time before a transmission will be more than
the expected guard time when the synchronization time plus the data bus accessing time is longer than the guard
time.
It is recommended to always use the insertion of minimum two Guard Time bits on the UPDI side, and one guard time
cycle insertion from the debugger side.
30.3.3 UPDI Instruction Set
The communication through the UPDI is based on a small instruction set. These instructions are part of the UPDI
Data Link (DL) layer. The instructions are used to access the UPDI registers, since they are mapped into an internal
memory space called “ASI Control and Status (CS) space”, as well as the memory-mapped system space. All
instructions are byte instructions and must be preceded by a SYNCH character to determine the baud rate for
the communication. See section UPDI UART for information about setting the baud rate for the transmission. The
following figure gives an overview of the UPDI instruction set.

30.3.3.1 LDS- Load Data from Data Space Using Direct Addressing
The LDSinstruction is used to load data from the system bus into the PHY layer shift register for serial readout. The
LDSinstruction is based on direct addressing, and the address must be given as an operand to the instruction for the

repeated memory access when combined with the REPEATinstruction.
After issuing the LDSinstruction, the number of desired address bytes, as indicated by the Size A field followed
by the output data size, which is selected by the Size B field, must be transmitted. The output data is issued after
the specified Guard Time (GT). When combined with the REPEATinstruction, the address must be sent in for each
iteration of the repeat, meaning after each time the output data sampling is done. There is no automatic address
increment when using REPEATwith LDS, as it uses a direct addressing protocol.

When the instruction is decoded, and the address byte(s) are received as dictated by the decoded instruction, the DL
layer will synchronize all required information to the ACC layer, which will handle the bus request and synchronize
data buffered from the bus back again to the DL layer. This will create a synchronization delay that must be taken into
consideration upon receiving the data from the UPDI.
30.3.3.2 STS- Store Data to Data Space Using Direct Addressing
The STSinstruction is used to store data that are shifted serially into the PHY layer shift register to the system bus
address space. The STSinstruction is based on direct addressing, and the address must be given as an operand to
the instruction for the data transfer to start. The address is the first set of operands, and data are the second set. The
size of the address and data operands are given by the size fields presented in Figure 30-8. The maximum size for
both address and data is 32 bits.
The STSsupports repeated memory access when combined with the REPEATinstruction.

4. A new ACK is received after the data have been successfully transferred.
30.3.3.3 LD- Load Data from Data Space Using Indirect Addressing
The LDinstruction is used to load data from the data space and into the PHY layer shift register for serial readout.
The LDinstruction is based on indirect addressing, which means that the Address Pointer in the UPDI needs to be
written before the data space read access. Automatic pointer post-increment operation is supported and is useful
when the LDinstruction is utilized with the REPEATinstruction. It is also possible to do an LDfrom the UPDI Pointer
register. The maximum supported size for address and data load is 32 bits.

The figure above shows an example of a typical LDsequence, where the data are received after the Guard Time
(GT) period. Loading data from the UPDI Pointer register follows the same transmission protocol.
For the LDinstruction from the data space, the pointer register must be set up by using an STinstruction to the
UPDI Pointer register. After the ACK has been received on a successful Pointer register write, the LDinstruction must
be set up with the desired DATA SIZE operands. An LDto the UPDI Pointer register is done directly with the LD
instruction.
30.3.3.4 ST- Store Data from UPDI to Data Space Using Indirect Addressing
The STinstruction is used to store data from the UPDI PHY shift register to the data space. The STinstruction is
used to store data that are shifted serially into the PHY layer. The STinstruction is based on indirect addressing,
which means that the Address Pointer in the UPDI needs to be written before the data space. The automatic pointer
post-increment operation is supported and is useful when the STinstruction is utilized with the REPEATinstruction.
The STinstruction is also used to store the UPDI Address Pointer into the Pointer register. The maximum supported
size for storing address and data is 32 bits.

The figure above gives an example of an STinstruction to the UPDI Pointer register and the storage of regular data.
A SYNCH character is sent before each instruction. In both cases, an Acknowledge (ACK) is sent back by the UPDI if
the STinstruction was successful.
To write the UPDI Pointer register, the following procedure has to be followed:
1. Set the PTR field in the STinstruction to signature 0x2.
2. Set the address size (Size A) field to the desired address size.
3. After issuing the STinstruction, send Size A bytes of address data.
4. Wait for the ACK character, which signifies a successful write to the Address register.
After the Address register is written, sending data is done in a similarly:
1. Set the PTR field in the STinstruction to signature 0x0to write to the address specified by the UPDI Pointer
register. If the PTR field is set to 0x1, the UPDI pointer is automatically updated to the next address according
to the data size Size B field of the instruction after the write is executed.
2. Set the Size B field in the instruction to the desired data size.
3. After sending the STinstruction, send Size B bytes of data.
4. Wait for the ACK character, which signifies a successful write to the bus matrix.

UPDI - Unified Program and Debug Interface
When used with the REPEATinstruction, it is recommended to set up the Address register with the start address
for the block to be written and use the Pointer Post Increment register to automatically increase the address for
each repeat cycle. When using the REPEATinstruction, the data frame of Size B data bytes can be sent after each
received ACK.
30.3.3.5 LDCS- Load Data from Control and Status Register Space
The LDCSinstruction is used to load serial readout data from the UPDI Control and the Status register space located
in the DL layer into the PHY layer shift register. The LDCSinstruction is based on direct addressing, where the
address is part of the instruction operands. The LDCSinstruction can access only the UPDI CS register space. This
instruction supports only byte access, and the data size is not configurable.

30.3.3.6 STCS- Store Data to Control and Status Register Space
The STCSinstruction is used to store data to the UPDI Control and Status register space. Data are shifted in serially
into the PHY layer shift register and written as a whole byte to a selected CS register. The STCSinstruction is based
on direct addressing, where the address is part of the instruction operand. The STCSinstruction can access only the
internal UPDI register space. This instruction supports only byte access, and the data size is not configurable.

Figure 30-12 shows the data frame transmitted after the SYNCH character and the instruction frames. The STCS
instruction byte can be immediately followed by the data byte. There is no response generated from the STCS
instruction, as is the case for the STand STSinstructions.
30.3.3.7 REPEAT- Set Instruction Repeat Counter
The REPEATinstruction is used to store the repeat count value into the UPDI Repeat Counter register on the DL
layer. When instructions are used with REPEAT, the protocol overhead for SYNCH and instruction frame can be
omitted on all instructions except the first instruction after the REPEATis issued. REPEATis most useful for memory
instructions (LD, ST, LDS, STS), but all instructions can be repeated, except for the REPEATinstruction itself.
The DATA_SIZEoperand field refers to the size of the repeat value. Only up to 255 repeats are supported. The
instruction loaded directly after the REPEATinstruction will be issued for RPT_0 + 1times. If the Repeat Counter
register is ‘0’, the instruction will run just once. An ongoing repeat can be aborted only by sending a BREAK
character.

For LD, data will come out continuously after the LDinstruction. Note the guard time on the first data block.
If using indirect addressing instructions (LD/ST), it is recommended to always use the pointer post-increment option
when combined with REPEAT. The ST/LDinstruction is necessary only before the first data block (number of data
bytes determined by DATA_SIZE). Otherwise, the same address will be accessed in all repeated access operations.
For direct addressing instructions (LDS/STS), the address must always be transmitted as specified in the instruction
protocol, before data can be received (LDS) or sent (STS).
30.3.3.8 KEY- Set Activation Key or Send System Information Block
The KEYinstruction is used for communicating key bytes to the UPDI or for providing the programmer with a System
Information Block (SIB), opening up for executing protected features on the device. See Key Activation Overview for
an overview of functions that are activated by keys. For the KEYinstruction, only a 64-bit key size is supported. The
maximum supported size for SIB is 128 bits.

setting.
30.3.4 System Clock Measurement with UPDI
It is possible to use the UPDI to get an accurate measurement of the system clock frequency by utilizing the UPDI
event connected to TCB with Input Capture capabilities. A recommended setup flow for this feature is given by the
following steps:
•
•
•
•
Set up TCBn.CTRLB with setting CNTMODE = 0x3, Input Capture Frequency Measurement mode
Write CAPTEI = 1in TCBn.EVCTRL to enable Event Interrupt. Keep EDGE = 0in TCBn.EVCTRL
Configure the Event System to route the UPDI SYNCH event (generator) to the TCB (user)
For the SYNCH character used to generate the UPDI events, it is recommended to use a slow baud rate in
the range of 10-50 kbps to get a more accurate measurement of the value captured by the timer between each
UPDI event. One particular thing is that if the capture is set up to trigger an interrupt, the first captured value
must be ignored. The second captured value based on the input event must be used for the measurement. See
Figure 30-16 for an example using 10 kbps UPDI SYNCH character pulses, giving a capture window of 200 µs
for the timer.

It is possible to read out the captured value directly after the SYNCH character by reading the TCBn.CCMP
register, or the value can be written to memory by the CPU once the capture is done. For more details, refer to
the TCB - 16-bit Timer/Counter Type B section.

30.3.5 Interbyte Delay
When loading data with the UPDI, or reading out the System Information Block, the output data will normally come
out with two IDLE bits between each transmitted byte for a multibyte transfer. Depending on the application on the
receiver side, data might be coming out too fast when there are no extra IDLE bits between each byte. By enabling
the IBDLY feature in UPDI.CTRLB, two extra Stop bits will be inserted between each byte to relax the sampling time
for the debugger. Interbyte delay works in the same way as a guard time, by inserting extra IDLE bits, but only a fixed
number of IDLE bits and only for multibyte transfers. The first transmitted byte after a direction change will be subject
to the regular Guard Time before it is transmitted, and the interbyte delay is not added to this time.

30.3.6 System Information Block
The System Information Block (SIB) can be read out at any time by setting the SIB bit according to the KEY
instruction from 30.3.3.8 KEY - Set Activation Key or Send System Information Block. The SIB is always accessible
to the debugger, regardless of lock bit settings, and provides a compact form of supplying information about the
device and system parameters for the debugger. The information is vital in identifying and setting up the proper
communication channel with the device. The output of the SIB is interpreted as ASCII symbols. The key size field

30.3.7 Enabling of Key Protected Interfaces
The access to some internal interfaces and features is protected by the UPDI key mechanism. To activate a key, the
correct key data must be transmitted by using the KEYinstruction, as described in 30.3.3.8 KEY - Set Activation Key
or Send System Information Block. Table 30-5 describes the available keys and the condition required when doing
the operation with the key active.

30.3.7.1 Chip Erase
The following steps should be followed to issue a chip erase:
1. Enter the Chip Erase key by using the KEYinstruction. See Table 30-6 for the CHIPERASE signature.
2. Optional: Read the Chip Erase (CHIPERASE) bit in the ASI Key Status (UPDI.ASI_KEY_STATUS) register to
see that the key is successfully activated.
3. Write the signature to the Reset Request (RSTREQ) bit in the ASI Reset Request (UPDI.ASI_RESET_REQ)
register. This will issue a System Reset.
4. Write 0x00to the ASI Reset Request (UPDI.ASI_RESET_REQ) register to clear the System Reset.
5. Read the NVM Lock Status (LOCKSTATUS) bit from the ASI System Status (UPDI.ASI_SYS_STATUS)
register.
6. The chip erase is done when LOCKSTATUS bit is ‘0’. If the LOCKSTATUS bit is ‘1’, return to step 5.
After a successful Chip Erase, the Lockbits will be cleared, and the UPDI will have full access to the system. Until
Lockbits are cleared, the UPDI cannot access the system bus, and only CS-space operations can be performed.

UPDI - Unified Program and Debug Interface
During chip erase, the BOD is forced in ON state by writing to the Active (ACTIVE) bit field from the
Control A (BOD.CTRLA) register and uses the BOD Level (LVL) bit field from the BOD Configuration
(FUSE.BODCFG) fuse and the BOD Level (LVL) bit field from the Control B (BOD.CTRLB) register. If
the supply voltage VDD is below that threshold level, the device is unavailable until VDD is increased
adequately. See the BOD section for more details.
CAUTION
30.3.7.2 NVM Programming
If the device is unlocked, it is possible to write directly to the NVM Controller or to the Flash memory using the UPDI.
This will lead to unpredictable code execution if the CPU is active during the NVM programming. To avoid this, the
following NVM Programming sequence has to be executed.
1. Follow the chip erase procedure, as described in Chip Erase. If the part is already unlocked, this point can be
skipped.
2. Enter the NVMPROG key by using the KEYinstruction. See Table 30-6 for the NVMPROG signature.
3. Optional: Read the NVM Programming Key Status (NVMPROG) bit from the ASI Key Status
(UPDI.KEY_STATUS) register to see if the key has been activated.
4. Write the signature to the Reset Request (RSTREQ) bit in the ASI Reset Request (UPDI.ASI_RESET_REQ)
register. This will issue a System Reset.
5. Write 0x00to the ASI Reset Request (UPDI.ASI_RESET_REQ) register to clear the System Reset.
6. Read the NVM Programming Key Status (NVMPROG) bit from the ASI System Status
(UPDI.ASI_SYS_STATUS) register.
7. NVM Programming can start when the NVMPROG bit is ‘1’. If the NVMPROG bit is ‘0’, return to step 6.
8. Write data to NVM through the UPDI.
9. Write the signature to the Reset Request (RSTREQ) bit in the ASI Reset Request (UPDI.ASI_RESET_REQ)
register. This will issue a System Reset.
10. Write 0x00to the ASI Reset Request (UPDI.ASI_RESET_REQ) register to clear the System Reset.
11. Programming is complete.
30.3.7.3 User Row Programming
The User Row Programming feature allows programming new values to the user row (USERROW) on a locked
device. To program with this functionality enabled, the following sequence must be followed:
1. Enter the USERROW-Write key located in Table 30-6 by using the KEYinstruction. See Table 30-6 for the
USERROW-Write signature.
2. Optional: Read the User Row Write Key Status (UROWWRITE) bit from the ASI Key Status
(UPDI.ASI_KEY_STATUS) register to see if the key has been activated.
3. Write the signature to the Reset Request (RSTREQ) bit in the ASI Reset Request (UPDI.ASI_RESET_REQ)
register. This will issue a System Reset.
4. Write 0x00to the ASI Reset Request (UPDI.ASI_RESET_REQ) register to clear the System Reset.
5. Read the Start User Row Programming (UROWPROG) bit from the ASI System Status
(UPDI.ASI_SYS_STATUS) register.
6. User Row Programming can start when the UROWPROG bit is ‘1’. If UROWPROG is ‘0’, return to step 5.
7. The data to be written to the User Row must first be written to a buffer in the RAM. The writable area in the
RAM has a size of 32 bytes, and it is only possible to write user row data to the first 32 byte addresses of the
RAM. Addressing outside this memory range will result in a nonexecuted write. The data will map 1:1 with the
user row space when the data is copied into the user row upon completion of the Programming sequence.
8. When all user row data has been written to the RAM, write the User Row Programming Done (UROWDONE)
bit in the ASI System Control A (UPDI.ASI_SYS_CTRLA) register.
9. Read the Start User Row Programming (UROWPROG) bit from the ASI System Status
(UPDI.ASI_SYS_STATUS) register.
10. The User Row Programming is completed when UROWPROG bit is ‘0’. If UROWPROG bit is ‘1’, return to step
9.
11. Write to the User Row Write Key Status (UROWWRITE) bit in the ASI Key Status (UPDI.ASI_KEY_STATUS)
register.

13. Write 0x00to the ASI Reset Request (UPDI.ASI_RESET_REQ) register to clear the System Reset.
14. The User Row Programming is complete.
It is not possible to read back data from the RAM in this mode. Only writes to the first 32 bytes of the RAM are
allowed.

This event is set on the UPDI clock for each detected positive edge in the SYNCH character, and it is not possible to
disable this event from the UPDI.
The UPDI has no event users.
Refer to the Event System section for more details regarding event types and Event System configuration.
30.3.9 Sleep Mode Operation
The UPDI PHY layer runs independently of all sleep modes, and the UPDI is always accessible for a connected
debugger independent of the device’s sleep state. If the system enters a sleep mode that turns the system clock off,
the UPDI will not be able to access the system bus and read memories and peripherals. When enabled, the UPDI will
request the system clock so that the UPDI always has contact with the rest of the device. Thus, the UPDI PHY layer
clock is unaffected by the sleep mode’s settings. By reading the System Domain in Sleep (INSLEEP) bit in the ASI
System Status (UPDI.ASI_SYS_STATUS) register, it is possible to monitor if the system domain is in a sleep mode.
It is possible to prevent the system clock from stopping when going into a sleep mode, by writing to the Request
System Clock (CLKREQ) bit in the ASI System Control A (UPDI.ASI_SYS_CTRLA) register. If this bit is set, the
system sleep mode state is emulated, and the UPDI can access the system bus and read the peripheral registers
even in the deepest sleep modes.
The CLKREQ bit is by default ‘1’ when the UPDI is enabled, which means that the default operation is keeping the
system clock in ON state during the sleep modes.

Bit 7 – IBDLYꢀInter-Byte Delay Enable
Writing a ‘1’ to this bit enables a fixed-length inter-byte delay between each data byte transmitted from the UPDI
when doing multibyte LD(S). The fixed length is two IDLE bits.
Bit 5 – PARDꢀParity Disable
Writing a ‘1’ to this bit will disable the parity detection in the UPDI by ignoring the Parity bit. This feature is
recommended to be used only during testing.
Bit 4 – DTDꢀDisable Time-Out Detection
Writing a ‘1’ to this bit will disable the time-out detection on the PHY layer, which requests a response from the ACC
layer within a specified time (65536 UPDI clock cycles).
Bit 3 – RSDꢀResponse Signature Disable
Writing a ‘1’ to this bit will disable any response signatures generated by the UPDI. This reduces the protocol
overhead to a minimum when writing large blocks of data to the NVM space. When accessing the system bus, the

Bit 1 – UROWWRITE_FINAL ꢀUser Row Programming Done
This bit must be written when the user row data have been written to the RAM. Writing a ‘1’ to this bit will start the
process of programming the user row data to the Flash.
If this bit is written before the user row data is written to the RAM by the UPDI, the CPU will proceed without the
written data.
This bit is writable only if the USERROW-Write key is successfully decoded.
Bit 0 – CLKREQꢀRequest System Clock
If this bit is written to ‘1’, the ASI is requesting the system clock, independent of the system sleep modes. This makes
it possible for the UPDI to access the ACC layer, also if the system is in a sleep mode.
Writing a ‘0’ to this bit will lower the clock request.
This bit will be reset when the UPDI is disabled.
This bit is set by default when the UPDI is enabled.

Power Considerations
The average chip-junction temperature, TJ, in °C, can be obtained from the following equations:
DS40002174C-page 461
Complete Datasheet
© 2021 Microchip Technology Inc.
ATmega3208/3209
Electrical Characteristics
•
•
Equation 1: TJ = TA + (PD x θJA)
Equation 2: TJ = TA + (PD x (θHEATSINK + θJC))
where:
•
•
•
•
•
θJA = Package thermal resistance, Junction-to-ambient (°C/W), see Thermal Resistance Data
θJC = Package thermal resistance, Junction-to-case thermal resistance (°C/W), see Thermal Resistance Data
θHEATSINK = Thermal resistance (°C/W) specification of the external cooling device
PD = Device power consumption (W)
TA = Ambient temperature (°C)
From the first equation, the user can derive the estimated lifetime of the chip and decide whether a cooling device is
necessary or not. If a cooling device has to be fitted on the chip, the second equation must be used to compute the
resulting average chip-junction temperature TJ in °C.
Power usage can be calculated by adding together system power consumption and I/O module power consumption.
The current drawn from pins with a capacitive load may be estimated (for one pin) as follows:
Icp ≈ VDD * Cload * fsw
Where Cload = pin load capacitance and fsw = average switching frequency of I/O pin.

1. These parameters are for design guidance only and are not covered by production test limits.
2. SDAHOLD is the data hold time after the SCL signal is detected to be low. The actual hold time is, therefore,
higher than the configured hold time.
3. For Host mode, the data hold time is whatever is largest of the following:
– 4×tCLK_PER + 50 ns (typical)
– SDAHOLD configuration + SCL filter delay
4. For Client mode, the hold time is given by:
– SDAHOLD configuration + SCL filter delay

In the Control A register description in the Window bit field table, the
precision of the values have been corrected
TCA - 16-bit Timer/Counter Type A
Clarifications added
– For single-slope PWM generation, counting from TOP to BOTTOM
is not supported
– Dual-slope PWM results in approx. half the maximum operation
frequency compared to single-slope PWM operation, due to twice
the number of timer increments per period
– Added timing diagram for split mode
– Event actions with level input detection work reliably only if the
event frequency is lower than the timer’s frequency
– (H/L)CMPnOV bits in CTRLC in normal and split mode: When the
output is connected to the pad, overriding these bits requires the
CMPnEN bits in the TCAn.CTRLB register to be enabled. The
CMPnEN bit is bypassed when the output is connected to the
CCL.
– LUPD bit in CTRLESET/CLR: LUPD does not prevent an update
issued by CTRLE.CMD
– For operation modes with update condition on BOTTOM and
compare interrupt enabled:
•
If CMPn=0, an interrupt will be given together with the update
at BOTTOM
•
If CMPnBUF=0, an interrupt will be given the next time the
counter reaches BOTTOM
TCB - 16-bit Timer/Counter Type B
•
•

Microchip Devices Code Protection Feature
Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
•
•
Microchip products meet the specifications contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
Microchip believes that its family of products is secure when used in the intended manner and under normal
conditions.
•
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods being used in attempts to breach the code protection features
of the Microchip devices. We believe that these methods require using the Microchip products in a manner
outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data Sheets. Attempts to breach these code
protection features, most likely, cannot be accomplished without violating Microchip’s intellectual property rights.
•
•
Microchip is willing to work with any customer who is concerned about the integrity of its code.
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of its code. Code
protection does not mean that we are guaranteeing the product is “unbreakable.” Code protection is constantly
evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our products.
Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
If such acts allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue
for relief under that Act.
