The Atmel®AVR® ATmega8A is a low-power CMOS 8-bit microcontroller based on the AVR RISC architecture. Byexecuting powerful instructions in a single clock cycle, the ATmega8A achieves throughputs approaching 1 MIPSper MHz, allowing the system designer to optimize power consumption versus processing speed.

The Atmel®AVR® AVR core combines a rich instruction set with 32 general purpose working registers. All the 32registers are directly connected to the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU), allowing two independent registers to beaccessed in one single instruction executed in one clock cycle. The resulting architecture is more code efficientwhile achieving throughputs up to ten times faster than conventional CISC microcontrollers.The ATmega8A provides the following features: 8K bytes of In-System Programmable Flash with Read-WhileWrite capabilities, 512 bytes of EEPROM, 1K byte of SRAM, 23 general purpose I/O lines, 32 general purposeworking registers, three flexible Timer/Counters with compare modes, internal and external interrupts, a serial programmable USART, a byte oriented Two-wire Serial Interface, a 6-channel ADC (eight channels in TQFP andQFN/MLF packages) with 10-bit accuracy, a programmable Watchdog Timer with Internal Oscillator, an SPI serialport, and five software selectable power saving modes. The Idle mode stops the CPU while allowing the SRAM,Timer/Counters, SPI port, and interrupt system to continue functioning. The Power-down mode saves the registercontents but freezes the Oscillator, disabling all other chip functions until the next Interrupt or Hardware Reset. InPower-save mode, the asynchronous timer continues to run, allowing the user to maintain a timer base while therest of the device is sleeping. The ADC Noise Reduction mode stops the CPU and all I/O modules except asynchronous timer and ADC, to minimize switching noise during ADC conversions. In Standby mode, thecrystal/resonator Oscillator is running while the rest of the device is sleeping. This allows very fast start-up combined with low-power consumption. 

The device is manufactured using Atmel’s high density non-volatile memory technology. The Flash Program memory can be reprogrammed In-System through an SPI serial interface, by a conventional non-volatile memoryprogrammer, or by an On-chip boot program running on the AVR core. The boot program can use any interface todownload the application program in the Application Flash memory. Software in the Boot Flash Section will continue to run while the Application Flash Section is updated, providing true Read-While-Write operation. Bycombining an 8-bit RISC CPU with In-System Self-Programmable Flash on a monolithic chip, the AtmelATmega8A is a powerful microcontroller that provides a highly-flexible and cost-effective solution to many embedded control applications.The Atmel AVR ATmega8A is supported with a full suite of program and system development tools, including Ccompilers, macro assemblers, program simulators and evaluation kits.
