●The ATMEGA324PA-AU is a 8-bit high-performance AVR RISC-based Microcontroller Unit combines 32kB ISP flash memory with read-while-write capabilities, 1kB EEPROM, 2kB SRAM, 32 general purpose I/O lines, 32 general purpose working registers, a real time counter, three flexible timer/counters with compare modes and PWM, two USARTs, a byte oriented 2-wire serial interface, an 8-channel 10-bit A/D converter with optional differential input stage with programmable gain, programmable watchdog timer with internal oscillator, SPI serial port, a JTAG (IEEE 1149.1 compliant) test interface for on-chip debugging and programming and six software selectable power saving modes.
● Device operates at 1.8 to 5.5V
● Advanced RISC architecture
● 131 Powerful instructions
● Fully static operation
● Up to 20MIPS throughput at 20MHz
● On-chip 2-cycle multiplier
● High endurance non-volatile memory segments
● Optional boot code section with independent lock bits
● In-system programming by on-chip boot program
● True Read-While-Write operation
●An interrupt between step 5 and step 6 will make the write cycle fail, since the EEPROM Master Write Enable will time-out.
