Description

The ATmega603/103 is a low-power CM OS 8-bit microc ontroller based on the AVR RISC architectur e. By executing powerful instructions in a single clock cycle, the ATmega603/103 achieves throughputs approaching 1 MIPS per MHz allowing the system designer to optimize power consumption versus processing speed.
The AVR core is based on an enhanced RISC architecture that combines a rich instruction set wi th 32 general purpose working registers. All the 32 registers are directly connected to the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU), allowing two independent registers to be accessed in one single instruction executed in one clock cycle. The resulting architecture is more code efficient while achieving throughputs up to ten times faster than conventional CISC microcontrollers.
The ATmega603/103 provides the following features: 64K/128K bytes of In-system Programmable Flash, 2K/4K bytes EEPROM, 4K by tes S RAM, 32 g eneral pur pose I/O li nes, 8 In put l ines , 8 Ou tput l ines , 32 genera l pur pos e work ing regis­ters, Real Time Counter (RTC), 4 flexible timer/counters with compare modes and PWM, UART, programmable Watchdog Timer with internal oscillator, an SPI serial port and three 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 register contents but freezes the oscillator, disabling all other chip functions until the next interrupt or hard­ware reset. In Power Sav e m ode , the tim er osci ll ato r con tin ues to ru n, al lo win g the us er to m ai ntai n a tim er base while the rest of the device is sleeping.
The device is manu factured using At mel’s hig h-densi ty nonv olatile m emory technolog y. The on-c hip ISP Flas h allow s the program memory to be reprogrammed in-system through a serial interface or by a conventional nonvolatile memory pro­grammer. By combining an 8-bit RISC CPU with a large array of ISP Flash on a monolithic chip, the Atmel ATmega603/103 is a powerful mi crocontroller that provides a highly flex ible and cos t effective sol ution to many e mbedded contr ol applications.
The ATmega603/103 AVR is supported with a full suite of program and system development tools including: C compilers, macro assemblers, program debugger/simulators, in-circuit emulators, and evaluation kits.

The AVR uses a Harvard architecture concept - with separate memories and buses for program and data. The program memory is accesses with a single level pipeline. While one instruction is being executed, the next instruction is pre-fetched from the program me mor y. This co nc ept enables instructio ns to be executed in ever y cl ock cycle. The program me mor y is in-system programmable Flash memory. With a few exceptions, AVR instructions have a single 16-bit word format, meaning that every program memory address contains a single 16-bit instruction.
During interrupts and subroutine c alls, the ret urn address program counter (PC) is stor ed on the st ack. The stac k is effectively allocated in the general data SRAM, and consequently the sta ck siz e i s onl y limi ted by the total SRAM si z e an d the usage of the SRAM. All user programs must initialize the SP in the reset routine (before subroutines or interrupts are executed). The 16-bit stack pointer SP is read/write accessible in the I/O space.
The 4000 bytes da ta SRAM can be easily ac cessed th rough the f ive dif ferent ad dressing modes sup ported in t he AVR architecture.
7
A flexible interrupt module has its control registers in the I/O space with an additional global interrupt enable bit in the status register. All the different interrupts have a separate interrupt vector in the interrupt vector table at the beginning of the program memory. Th e diffe rent in terrupts have priority in a ccordan ce wit h thei r interr upt vect or pos ition. T he lo wer th e interrupt vector address, the higher the priority.
The memory spaces in the AVR architecture are all linear and regular memory maps.

All the register opera ting instructi ons in the instructio n set have direct and single cycle access to all registe rs. The only exception is the five consta nt arithme tic and logic in struction s SBCI, SUBI, CPI, ANDI and ORI betwe en a constan t and a register and the LDI i nstruc tion f or load imm ediate consta nt data . Th ese ins tructi ons a pply to the s econ d hal f of t he regi s­ters in the register file - R16..R31. The general SBC, SUB, CP, AND and OR and all other operations between two registers or on a single register apply to the entire register file.
As shown in Figure 5, each register is als o assigned a data memory addr ess, mapping them directly into the first 32 locations of the user Data Space. Although not being physically implemented as SRAM locations, this memory organization provides great flexibility in access of the registers, as the X,Y and Z registers can be set to index any register in the file.
The 4K bytes of SRAM available for general data are implemented as addresses $0060 to $0FFF.

The registers R26..R 31 ha ve some a dded funct ions to th eir general pur pose us age. These regis ters a re a ddress poi nters for indirect addressing of the SRAM. The three indirect address registers X, Y and Z are defined as:

In the different addr essing modes these addres s re gisters have fu nctio ns as fixed displ acement, automat ic i ncremen t and decrement (see the descriptions for the different instructions).

ALU - Arithmetic Logic Unit

The high-performance AVR ALU operates in direct connection with all the 32 general purpose working registers. Within a single clock cy cl e, AL U operations between r egis ter s in the re gis te r f il e ar e exec uted . The ALU operations are div i ded in to three main categories - arithmetic, logical and bit-functions.

ISP Flash Program Memory

The ATmega603/103 contains 64K/128K bytes on-chip In-system Programmable Flash memory for program storage. Since all instructio ns are single or dou ble 16-bit word s, the Flash is orga nized as 64K x 16. The Flash memory has an endurance of at least 1000 write/erase cycles.
Constant tables can be allocated in the entire program memory space (see the LPM - Load Program Memory and ELPM Extended Load Program Memory instruction descriptions).

SRAM Data Memory

The ATmega603/103 supports two different configurations for the SRAM data memory as listed in the following table:

The 4096 first Data Memory locations address both the Register file, the I/O Memory and the internal data SRAM. The first 96 locations address the register file and I/O memory, and the next 4000 locations address the internal data SRAM.
An optional external data SRAM can be used with the ATmega603/103. This SRAM will occupy an area in the remaining address locations in the 64K ad dr ess s pa ce . Thi s a rea s tarts at t he a ddr es s fol lowing the internal SRAM. If a 64K ex terna l SRAM is used, 4K of the external memory is lost as the addresses are occupied by internal memory.
When the addresses accessing the SRAM memory space exceeds the internal data memory locations, the external data SRAM is accesse d using t he sam e ins tructio ns as for the inter nal da ta memo ry acces s. W hen the internal data m emor ies are accessed, the read and write strobe pins (RD operation is enabled by setting the SRE bit in the MCUCR register.
Accessing external SRAM takes one additional clock cycle per byte compared to access of the internal SRAM. This means that the commands LD, ST, LDS, STS, PUSH and POP take one additional clock cycle. If the stack is placed in external SRAM, interrupts, subroutine call s and returns take two clock cycles extra because the two- byte program counter is pushed and popped. When external SRAM interface is used with wait state, two additional clock cycles is used per byte. This has the following e ffec t: Da ta tran sfer instructions take two extr a cl oc k cy c les, wh er eas in terr upt, su br outine c al ls an d returns will need four clock cycles more than specified in the instruction set manual.
The five different addressing modes for the data memory cover: Direct, Indirect with Displacement, Indirect, Indirect with Pre-Decrement and Indirect with Post-Increment. In the register file, registers R26 to R31 feature the indirect addressing pointer registers.
The Indirect with Displacement mode features a 63 address locations reach from the base address given by the Y or Z-register.
When using register indirect addressing modes with automatic pre-decrement and post-increment, the address registers X, Y and Z are decremented and incremented.

Memory Access Times and Instruction Execution Timing

This section describes the general access timing concepts for instruction execution and internal memory access.
The AVR CPU is driven b y the S yste m Clock Ø, di rectly gener ated from the ex ternal c lock c rystal for the c hip. No interna l clock division is used.
Figure 20 shows the parallel instructio n fetches and instructio n executions enabl ed by the Harvard architec ture and the fast-access register file concept. This is the basic pipelining concept to obtain up to 1 MIPS per MHz with the corresponding unique results for functions per cost, functions per clocks, and functions per power-unit.

All the different ATmega603/103 I/Os and peripherals are placed in the I/O space. The different I/O locations are directly accessed by the IN and OUT ins truct ions transf erring data be tween the 32 ge neral purp ose workin g register s and the I/O space. I/O registers within the address range $00 - $1F are directly bit-accessible using the SBI and CBI instructions. In these registers, the value of single bits can be checked by using the SBIS and SBIC instructions. Refer to the instruction set chapter for more details. When using the I/O specific instructions IN, OUT, the I/O register address $00 - $3F are used. When addressing I/O registers as SRAM, $20 must be added to this address. All I/O r egister addresses throughout this document are shown with the SRAM address in parentheses.
For compatibility with future devices, res er ve d b its s hou ld be wr itte n t o z er o i f a cces s ed. Res erve d I/ O mem or y add re ss es should never be written.
Some of the status flags are cleared by writing a logical one to them. Note that the CBI and SBI instructions will operate on all bits in the I/O regi ster , writing a one ba ck in to any flag read as s et, thus cl earing t he f lag. The C BI and SB I instr ucti ons work with registers $00 to $1F only.

The different I/O and peripherals control registers are explained in the following sections.

Status Register - SREG

The AVR status register - SREG - at I/O space location $3F ($5F) is defined as:
Bit 76543210 $3F ($5F) I T H S V N Z C SREG Read/Write R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W Initial value00000000
Bit 7 - I: Global Interrupt Enable
The global interr upt e nable bit must be set (one ) for the i nterrup ts to be e nable d. The indi vidu al in terrup t enab le c ontrol is then performed in s eparate con trol regi sters. If the globa l inte rru pt ena ble r egist er is clear ed (zero ), non e of the i nter rupts are enabled independent of the individual interrupt enable settings. The I-bit is cleared by hardware after an interrupt has occurred, and is set by the RETI instruction to enable subsequent interrupts.
Bit 6 - T: Bit Copy Storage
• The bit copy instructions BLD (Bit LoaD) and BST (Bit STore) use the T bit as source and destination for the operated bit. A
bit from a register in the regi ste r file can be copied into T by the BST instru ct ion , and a bit i n T can be c opi ed i nto a bit in a register in the register file by the BLD instruction.
Bit 5 - H: Half Carry Flag
• The half carry flag H indicates a half carry in some arithmetic operations. See the Instruction Set Description for detailed
information.
Bit 4 - S: Sign Bit, S = N ⊕ V
• The S-bit is always an exclusive or between the negative flag N and the two’s complement overflow flag V. See the Instruc-
tion Set Description for detailed information.
Bit 3 - V: Two’s Complement Overflow Flag
• The two’s complement overflow flag V supports two’s complement arithmetics. See the Instruction Set Description for
detailed information.
Bit 2 - N: Negative Flag
• The negative flag N indicates a negative result from an arithmetical or logical operation. See the Instruction Set Description
for detailed information.
Bit 1 - Z: Zero Flag
• The zero flag Z indi cates a zero r esult from an arithmetic al or logical operation. See the Instru ction Se t Descriptio n for
detailed information.
Bit 0 - C: Carry Flag
• The carry flag C indicates a carry in an ari thmetical or logical opera tion. See the Instruction Se t Description for detailed
information. Note that the status register is not automatically stored when entering an interrupt routine and restored when returning from
an interrupt routine. This must be handled by software.

Stack Pointer - SP

The general AVR 16-bit Stack Poin ter is effecti vely built up of two 8- bit registe rs in the I/O s pace loca tions $3E ($5E ) and $3D ($5D). As the ATmega603/103 supports up to 64 kB memory, all 16-bits are used.

The Stack Pointer is decremented by one when data is pushed onto the Stack with the PUSH instruction, and it is decremented by two when an address is pushed onto the Stack with subroutine calls and interrupts. The Stack Pointer is incremented by one when data is popped from the Stack with the POP instruction, and it is incremente d by two when an address i s popped from the Stac k with return from subr outine RET or return from interrupt RETI.

RAM Page Z Select Register - RAMPZ

Bit 7654321 0 $3B ($5B) - - - - - - - RAMPZ0 RAMPZ Read/WriteRRRRRRRR/W Initial value0000000 0
The RAMPZ register is normally used to select which 64K RAM Page is accessed by the Z pointer. As the ATmega603/103 does not support more than 64K of SRAM memory , this regi ster is use d only to se lect whi ch page in the program memo ry is accessed when the ELPM instruction is used. The different settings of the RAMPZ0 bit have the following effects:
RAMPZ0 = 0: Program memory address $0000- $7FFF (lower 64K bytes) is accessed by ELPM RAMPZ0 = 1: Program memory address $8000- $FFFF (higher 64K bytes) is accessed by ELPM
Note that LPM is not affected by the RAMPZ setting. The ATmega603 does not contain the RAMPZ register, and it does not have the ELPM instruction. The ordinary LPM
instruction can reach the entire program memory in the ATmega603.

MCU Control Register - MCUCR

The MCU Control Register contains control bits for general MCU functions.
Bit 7654321 0 $35 ($55) SRE SRW SE SM1 SM0 - - - MCUCR Read/Write R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R R R Initial value0000000 0
Bit 7 - SRE: External SRAM Enable
When the SRE bit is set (one), the externa l data SRAM is enabl ed, and the pin func tions AD0- 7 (Port A), and A8-15 (P ort C) are activated as the al ternate pin functions. Then the SRE b it ove r rides a ny pi n d ir ecti on s et tin gs in the respective da ta direction registers. When the SRE bit is cleared (zero), the external data SRAM is disabled, and the normal pin and data direction settings are used.
Bit 6 - SRW: External SRAM Wait State
• When the SRW bit is set ( one ), a one cycle wait state is ins ert ed in the ex terna l d ata SRA M a cces s c ycle . W hen the SRW
bit is cleared (zero), the external data SRAM access is executed with a three-cycle scheme. See Figure 51.External SRAM Access Cycle without wait states73 and Figure 52.External SRAM Access Cycle with wait state74.
Bit 5 - SE: Sleep Enable
• The SE bit must be set (one) to make the MCU enter the sleep mode when the SLEEP instruction is executed. To avoid the
MCU entering the sleep mode unless it is the programmers purpose, it is recommended to set the Sleep Enable SE bit just before the execution of the SLEEP instruction.

XTAL Divide Control Register - XDIV

The XTAL Divide Contr ol Reg ister is used to di vide the X TAL cl ock fr equenc y by a numbe r in the rang e 1 - 129. This f ea­ture can be used to decrease power consumption when the requirement for processing power is low.

Bit 7 - XDIVEN: XTAL Divide Enable
• When the XDIVEN bit is set (one), the clock frequency of the CPU and all peripherals is divided by the factor defined by the
setting of XDIV6 - XDIV0. This bit can be set and cleared run-time to vary the clock frequency as suitable to the application.
Bits 6..0 - XDIV6..XDIV0: XTAL Divide Select Bits 6 - 0
• These bits define the division factor that applies when the XDIVEN bit is set (one). If the value of these bits is denoted d,
f
the following formula defines the resulting CPU clock frequency

:
The value of these bits can only be ch ange d when XDIV EN i s ze ro. Whe n XDIVEN is set to one, the value written si multa­neously into XDIV6..XDIV0 is taken as the division factor. When XDIVEN is cleared to zero, the value written simultaneously into XDIV6..XDIV0 is rejected. As the divider divides the master clock input to the MCU, the speed of all peripherals is reduced when a division factor is used.

Reset and Interrupt Handling

The ATmega603/103 provides 23 different interrupt sources. These interrupts and the separate reset vector each have a separate program vector in the program memory space. All interrupts are assigned individual enable bits which must be set (one) together with the I-bit in the status register in order to enable the interrupt.
The lowest addresses i n the pro gram memory s pace are aut omatically defined a s the Reset an d Interru pt vectors. The complete list of vectors is shown in Table 5. The list also determines the priority levels of the different interrupts. The lower the address the higher is the priority level. RESET has the highest priority, and next is INT0 - the External Interrupt Request 0 etc.

Reset Sources

The ATmega603/103 has three sources of reset:
• Power-On Reset. The MCU is reset when the supply voltage is below the power-on reset threshold (V
• External Reset. The MCU is reset when a low level is present on the RESET
pin for more than 50 ns.
POT
).
• Watchdog Reset. The MCU is reset when the Watchdog timer period expires and the Watchdog is enabled. During reset, all I/O registers except the MCU Status register are then set to their initial values, and the program starts exe-
cution from address $0000. The instruction placed in address $0000 must be a JMP - absolute jump instruction to the reset handling routine. If the program never enables an interrupt source, the interrupt vectors are not used, and regular program code can be placed at these locations. The circuit diagram in Figure 23 shows the reset logic. Table 6 defines the timing and electrical parameters of the reset circuitry.

Power-On Reset

A Power-On Reset (POR ) circuit ensures tha t the device is reset from power-on. As s hown in Figure 23, an inter nal timer clocked from the Watchd og timer oscillator prevents the MCU from st arting until after a cer tain period after V reached the Power-O n Th resh old v ol tage - V
, regardless of the VCC rise time (see Fi gure 24) . The Fu se bits SUT1 and
POT
SUT0 is used to select start-up time as indicated in Table 6. A “0” in the table indicates that the fuse is programmed. The user can select the start-up time according to typical oscillator start-up time. The number of WDT oscillator cycles used
for each time-out ex cept for S UT = 00 is sho wn in Tabl e 7. The f requency of the w atchdo g osc illator is volta ge depe ndent as shown in “Typical characteristics” on page 110.
Table 7. Number of watchdog oscillator cycles
SUT 1/0 Time-out at VCC = 5V Number of WDT cycles
01 0.5 ms 512 10 4.0 ms 4K 11 16.0 ms 16K
The setting SUT 1/0 = 00 starts the MCU after 5 CPU clock cycles, and can be used when an external clock signal is applied to the XTAL1 pin. This setting does not use the WDT oscillator, and enables very fast start-up from the sleep modes power down or power save if the clock si gnal is pr esent du ring sleep. For details, r efer to the prog ramming speci fi­cation starting on page 92.
If the built-in start-up delay is sufficient, RESET ing the pin low for a period after V
has been applied, the Power-On Reset period can be extended. Refer to Figure 25 for

Bits 7..2 - Res: Reserved Bits
These bits are reserved bits in the ATmega603/103 and always read as zero.
Bit 1 - EXTRF: External Reset Flag
• After a power-on reset, this bit is undefined (X). It will be set by an external reset. A watchdog reset will leave this bit
unchanged.
Bit 0 - PORF: Power-on Reset Flag
• This bit is set by a power-on reset. A watchdog reset or an external reset will leave this bit unchanged. To summarize, the following table shows the value of these two bits after the three modes of reset:
Table 8. PORF and EXTRF Values after Reset
Reset Source EXTRF PORF
Power-on Reset undefined 1 External Reset 1 unchanged Watchdog Reset unchanged unchanged
To make use of these bi ts to ident ify a reset conditio n, the us er softwa re should clear bot h the PORF an d EXTRF bits as early as possible in the program. Checking the PORF and EXTRF values is done before the bits are cleared. If the bit is cleared before an external or watchdog reset occurs, the source of reset can be found by using the following truth table:

Interrupt Handling

The ATmega603/103 has two dedicated 8-bit Interrupt Mask control registers; EIMSK - External Interrupt Mask register and TIMSK - Timer/Counter Interrupt Mask register. In addition, other enable and mask bits can be found in the peripheral control registers.
When an interrupt occurs, the Global Interrupt Enable I-bit is cleared (zero) and all interrupts are disabled. The user soft­ware can set (one) the I-bit to enable nested interrupts. The I-bit is set (one) when a Return from Interrupt instruction - RETI
- is executed. When the Program Counter is vectored to the actual interrupt vector in order to execute the interrupt handling routine, hard-
ware clears the corresponding flag that generated the interrupt. Some of the interrupt flags can also be cleared by writing a logic one to the flag bit position(s) to be cleared.
If an interrupt condition occurs when the corresponding interrupt enable bit is cleared (zero), the interrupt flag will be set and remembered until the interrupt is enabled, or the flag is cleared by software.
If one or more interrupt conditi ons occu r when the global interrupt ena ble bit is clea red (zero), th e correspondi ng interrup t flag(s) will be set and remembered until the global interrupt enable bit is set (one), and will be executed by order of priority.
Note that external level interrupt does not have a flag, and will only be remembered for as long as the interrupt condition is active.
Note that the status register is not automatically stored when entering an interrupt routine and restored when returning from an interrupt routine. This must be handled by software.

Interrupt Response Time

The interrupt execution res ponse for all the enabl ed AVR interrupts is 4 cloc k cycles minim um. 4 clock cycles after the interrupt flag h as been set , the pro gram ve ctor addre ss for the actual interru pt handl ing routi ne is exec uted. Du ring this 4 clock cycle period, the Program Counter (2 bytes) is pushed onto the Stack, and the Stack Pointer is decremented by 2. The vector is nor ma ll y a jum p t o t he interrupt routine, and th is j ump ta kes 3 clock cyc les . If a n i nte rrupt occurs during ex e­cution of a multi-cycle instruction, this instruction is completed before the interrupt is served.
A return from an interrupt handling routine (same as for a subroutine call routine) takes 4 clock cycles. During these 4 clock cycles, the Program Counter (2 bytes) is popped back from the Stack, and the Stack Pointer is incremented by 2. When the AVR exits from an interrupt, it will always return to the main program and execute one more instruction before any pending interrupt is served.

Sleep Modes

To enter any of the three sleep modes, the SE bit in MCUCR must be set (one) and a SLEEP instruction must be executed. The SM1 and SM0 bits in the MCUCR register select which sleep mode (Idle, Power Down, or Power Save) will be acti­vated by the SLEEP instruction, see Table 4.
If an enabled interrup t occurs while the MCU is in a sleep mod e, the MCU awakes , executes the i nterrupt rout ine, and resumes execution from the instruction following SLEEP. The contents of the register file, SRAM, and I/O memory are unal­tered. If a reset occurs during sleep mode, the MCU wakes up and executes from the Reset vector

Idle Mode

When the SM1/SM0 bits are set to 00, the SLEEP i nstructi on makes the MCU enter th e Idle Mode, sto pping the CPU but allowing SPI, UART, Analog Comparator, ADC, Timer/Counters, Watchdog and the interrupt system to continue operating. This enables the MCU to wake up from external triggered interrupts as well as internal ones like the Timer Overflow and UART Receive Complete interrupts. If wake-up from the Analog Comparator interrupt is not required, the analog compara­tor can be powered down by setting the ACD-bit in the Analog Comparator Control and Status register - ACSR. This will reduce power co nsumption in Id le Mode. When t he MCU wa kes up from Idle mode , the CPU starts p rogram e xecution immediately.
33

Power Down Mode

When the SM1/SM0 bit s are set to 10, the S LEEP in struct ion mak es the M CU enter the P ower Do wn Mode. In this mod e, the external oscillator is stopped, while the external interrupts and the Watchdog (if enabled) continue operating. Only an external reset, a watchdog reset (if enabled), or an external level interrupt can wake up the MCU.
Note that if a level triggered interrupt is used fo r wake-up from P ower Down Mode, the changed level mu st be held for some time to wake up the MCU. This makes the MCU le ss sensi tive to noi se. The c hanged level is sampled twi ce by the watchdog oscillator cl ock, a nd if the inp ut ha s the requi red level d uring this time , the MCU wi ll wa ke u p. The period of th e watchdog oscillator is 1 us (nominal) at 5.0V and 25C. The frequency of the watchdog oscillator is voltage dependent as
shown in section “Typical char acteristics” on page 110. When waking up from Powe r Down Mode, ther e is a delay fro m the wake-up conditio n occurs un til the wake-u p becomes
effective. This a llows the clo ck to res tart a nd bec ome stab le aft er ha ving been s topped . The wak e-up pe riod is defi ned by the same SUT fuses that define the r ese t tim e-out period. The wake-up period is equa l to the cl ock re se t per iod, as sho wn in Table 6.
If the wake-up condition disappears before the MCU wakes up and starts to execute, e.g. a low level on is not held long enough, the interrupt causing the wake-up will not be executed.

Power Save Mode

When the SM1/SM0 bits are 11, the SLEEP instruction makes the MCU enter the Power Save Mode. This mode is identical to Power Down, with one exception:
If Timer/Counter0 is clocked as y nch ronou sl y , i.e. th e AS 0 bi t in ASS R is s et, Tim er/Co unte r0 will run dur in g sl ee p. In add i­tion to the Power Down wa ke-up s ources, the device ca n also wa ke up fro m either Time r Overflow o r Output Compare event from Timer/Counter0 i f the corr espon ding Tim er/Counter 0 interr upt enab le bits ar e set in TIMSK. To en sure that th e part executes the Interrupt routine when waking up, also set the global interrupt enable bit in SREG.
When waking up from Power Save Mode by an exter nal interrupt, 2 i nstruction cy cles are exec uted before the inte rrupt flags are updated. When waking up by the asynchronous timer, 3 instruction cycles are executed before the flags are updated. During these cycles, the processor executes instructions, but the interrupt condition is not readable, and the interrupt routine has not started yet .

Timer/Counters

The ATmega603/103 pr ovid es th re e g ene ral purpose Timer/Counter s - t wo 8-bit T/Cs and one 16 -b it T/C. Ti me r/C ount er 0 can optionally be asynchronously clocked from an external oscillator. This oscillator is optimized for use with a 32.768 kHz crystal, enabling use of Timer/Counter0 as a Real Time Clock (RTC). Timer/Counter0 has its own prescaler. Timer/Counters 1 and 2 have ind ivid ual pres caling se lecti on from the same 10- bit pres cali ng timer. Thes e Timer/Co unters can either be used as a timer with an internal clock timebase or as a counter with an external pin connection which triggers the count ing.

The clock source for Timer/Counter0 prescaler is named PCK0. PCK0 is by default connected to the main system clock CK. Observe that CPU clock frequency can be lower than the XTAL frequency if the XTAL divider is enabled. By setting the AS0 bit in ASSR , Timer/Counter 0 p rescaler is asy nchronously clo cked from the TOS C1 pin. This en ables use of Timer/Counter0 as a Real Time Clock (RTC). A crystal can be connected between the TOSC1 and TOSC2 pins to serve as an independent clock source for Timer/Counter0. This oscillator is optimized for use with a 32.768 kHz crystal.

Note: Figure 31 shows the block diagram for Timer/Counter2.
The 8-bit Timer/Cou nter0 can sele ct clock sourc e from PCK0 or pres caled PCK0 . The 8-bit Timer /Counter2 can s elect clock source from CK, prescaled CK, or an external pin. Both Timer/Counters can be stopped as described in the specifica­tion for the Timer/Counter Control Registers - TCCR0 and TCCR2.
The different status flags (overflow, compare match and capture event) are found in the Timer/Counter Interrupt Flag Reg­ister - TIFR. Control signals are found in the Timer/Counter Control Registers - TCCR0 and TCCR2. The interrupt enable/disable settings are found in the Timer/Counter Interrupt Mask Register - TIMSK.
When Timer/Counter2 is externally clocked, the external signal is synchronized with the oscillator frequency of the CPU. To assure proper sampling of the external clock, the minimum time between two external clock transitions must be at least one internal CPU clock period. The external clock signal is sampled on the rising edge of the internal CPU clock.
The 8-bit Timer/Counters feature a high resolution and a high accuracy usage with the lower prescaling opportunities. Sim­ilarly, the high prescaling opportunities m ake these un its useful for lower speed function s or exact ti ming functions wi th infrequent actions.
Both Timer/Counters support two Output Compare functions using the Output Compare Registers - OCR0 and OCR2 as the data source to be compared to the Timer/Counter contents. The Output Compare functions include optional clearing of the counter on compare match, and action on the O utput Compare Pins - PB4( OC0/PWM0) and PB7(OC2/PW M2) - on compare match.
Timer/Counter0 and 2 can also be used as 8-bit Pulse Width Modulators. In this mode the Timer/Counter and the output compare register serve as a glitch-free, stand-alone PWM with centered pulses. Refer to page 40 for a detailed description on this function.

This bit is a reserved bit in the ATmega603/103 and always reads as zero.

• The COMn1 and COMn0 control bi ts determine any outpu t pin action follo wing a compare match in Timer/Counter2.
Any output pin actions affec t pins PB4(OC0/P WM0) or PB7(OC2/P WM2). Si nce this i s an al ternative function to an I/O port, the corresponding direction control bit must be set (one) to control an output pin. The control configuration is shown in Table 11.

Note: n = 0 or 2
In PWM mode, these bits have a different function. Refer to Table 14 for a detailed description.

match. If the control bit is cleared, the Timer continues counting and is unaffected by a compare match. Since the compare match is detected in the CPU clock cycle following the match, this function will behave differently when a prescaling higher than 1 is used for the timer. When a prescaling of 1 is used, and the compare register is set to C, the timer will count as fol­lows if CTC0/2 is set:
... | C-2 | C-1 | C | 0 | 1 | ... When the prescaler is set to divide by 8, the timer will count like this: ... | C-2, C-2, C-2, C-2, C-2, C-2, C-2, C-2 | C-1, C-1, C-1, C-1, C-1, C-1, C-1, C-1 | C, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 | 1, 1, 1, ... In PWM mode, this bit has no effect.

The Stop condition provides a Timer Enable/Disable function. The CK down divided modes are scaled directly from the CK CPU clock. If the external pin modes are used for Timer/Counter2, transitions on PD7/(T2) will clock the counter even if the pin is configured as an output. This feature can give the user SW control of the counting.

The output compare registers are 8-bit read/write registers. The Timer/Counter Output Compare Registers contain the data to be continuously compared with the Timer/Counter.
Actions on compare matches a re sp ecifi ed i n TCCR0 and TCCR2. A compare match does on ly occu r if the Tim er/Coun ter counts to the OCR value. A software write that sets the Timer/Counter and Output Compare Register to the same value does not generate a compare match.
A compare match will set the compare interrupt flag in the CPU clock cycle following the compare event.

Timer/Counter 0 and 2 in PWM mode

When the PWM mode is selected, the Timer/Counter and the Output Compare Register - OCR0 or OCR2 form an 8-bit, free-running, glitch-free and phase correct PWM with outputs on the PB4(OC0/PWM0) or PB7(OC2/PW M2) pin. The Timer/Counter acts as an up/down counter, counting up from $00 to $FF, where it turns and counts down again to zer o before the cycle is repeated. When the counter value matches the contents of the Output Compare register, the PB4(OC0/PWM0) or PB7(OC2/PWM2) pin is set or cleared according to the settings of the COM01/COM00 or COM21/COM20 bits in the Timer/Counter Control Registers TCCR0 and TCCR2. Refer to Table 14 for details.

Note that in PWM mode, the Output Compare regis ter is transfe rred to a tem porary locatio n when writte n. The value is latched when the Timer/Counter reaches $FF. This prevents the occurrence of odd-length PWM pulses (glitches) in the event of an unsynchronized OCR0 or OCR2 write. See Figure 32 for an example.

During the time between the write and the latch operation, a read from OCR0 or OCR2 will read the contents of the tempo­rary location. This means that the most recently written value always will read out of OCR0/2
When the OCR register (not the temporar y register) is up dated to $00 or $FF , the PWM outpu t changes to low or high immediately according to the settings of COM21/COM20 or COM11/COM10. This is shown in Table 15:

In PWM mode, the Timer Overflow Flag, TOV0 or TOV2, is set when the counter advances from $00. Timer Overflow Interrupt0 and 2 operates exactly as in normal Timer/Counter mode, i.e. it is executed when TOV0 or TOV2 is set provided that Timer Overflow Interrupt and global interrupts are enabled. This does also apply to the Timer Output Compare flags and interrupts.
The frequency of the PWM will be Timer Clock Frequency divided by 510.

Bit 7..4 - Res: Reserved Bits
• These bits are reserved bits in the ATmega603/103 and always reads as zero.
Bit 3 - AS0: Asynchronous Timer/Counter0
• When set(one) Timer/Counter0 is clocked from the TOSC1 pin. When cleared (zero) Timer/Counter0 is clocked from the
internal system clock, CK. When the value of this bit is changed the contents of TCNT0 might get corrupted.
Bit 2 - TCN0UB: Timer/Counter0 Update Busy
• When Timer/Counter0 operates asynchronously and TCNT0 is written, this bit becomes set (one). When TCNT0 has been
updated from the te mpora ry stor age regis ter, th is bit is cl eared ( zero) by ha rdwar e. A logic al zero in this bit indicat es that TCNT0 is ready to be updated with a new value.

Bit 1 - OCR0UB: Output Compare Register0 Update Busy
When Timer/Counter0 operates asynchronously and OCR0 is written, this bit becomes set (one). When OCR0 has been updated from the te mpora ry stor age regis ter, th is bit is cl eared ( zero) by ha rdwar e. A logic al zero in this bit indicat es that OCR0 is ready to be updated with a new value.
Bit 0 - TCR0UB: Timer/Counter Control Register0 Update Busy
• When Timer/Counter0 operates asynchronously and TCCR0 is written, this bit becomes set (one). When TCCR0 has been
updated from the te mpora ry stor age regis ter, th is bit is cl eared ( zero) by ha rdwar e. A logic al zero in this bit indicat es that TCCR0 is ready to be updated with a new value.
If a write is performed to any of the three Timer/Counter0 registers while its update busy flag is set (one), the updated value might get corrupted and cause an unintentional interrupt to occur.
When reading TCNT0, OCR0 and TCCR0, there is a difference in result. When reading TCNT0, the actual timer value is read. When reading OCR0 or TCCR0, the value in the temporary storage register is read.

Asynchronous Operation of Timer/Counter0

When Timer/Counter0 operates synchronously, all operations and timing are identical to Timer/Counter2. During asynchro­nous operation, however, some considerations must be taken.
• WARNING: When switching between asynchronous and synchronous clocking of Timer/Counter0, the timer registers,
TCNT0, OCR0 and TCCR0 might get corrupted. Safe procedure for switching clock source:
1. Disable the timer 0 interrupts OCIE0 and TOIE0.
2. Select clock source by setting ASO as appropriate.
3. Write new values to TCNT0, OCR0 and TCCR0.
4. If switching to asynchronous operation: Wait for TCNT0UB, OCR0UB and TCR0UB to be cleared.
5. Enable interrupts if needed.
• The oscillator is optimized for use with a 32,768Hz watch crystal. An external clock signal applied to this pin goes
through the same amplifier having a bandwidth of 256kHz. The external clock signal should therefore be in the interval 0Hz - 256kHz. The frequency of the clock signal applied to the TOSC1 pin must be lower than one fourth of the CPU main clock frequency. Observe that CPU clock frequency can be lower than the XTAL frequency if the XTAL divider is enabled.
• When writing to one of the registers TCNT0, OCR0, or TCCR0, the value is transferred to a temporary register, and
latched after two positive edges on TOSC1. The user should not write a new value before the contents of the temporary register have been transferred to its destination. Each of the three mentioned registers have their individual temporary register, which means that e.g. writing to TCNT0 does not disturb an OCR0 write in progress. To detect that a transfer to the destination register has taken place, a Asynchronous Status Register - ASSR has been implemented.
• When entering Power Save mode after having written to TCNT0, OCR0 or TCCR0, the user must wait until the written
register has been updated if Timer/Counter0 is used to wake up the device. Otherwise, the MCU will go to sleep before the changes have had any effect. This is extremely important if the output compare0 interrupt is used to wake up the device; Output compare is disabled during write to OCR0 or TCNT0. If the write cycle is not finished (i.e. the user goes to sleep before the OCR0UB bit returns to zero), the device will never get a compare match and the MCU will not wake up.
• If Timer/Counter0 is used to wake up the device from Power Save mode, precautions must be taken if the user wants to
re-enter Power Save mode; The interrupt logic needs one TOSC1 cycle to get reset. If the time between wake up and re­entering Power Save mode is less than one TOSC1 cycle, the interrupt will not occur and the device will fail to wake up. If the user is in doubt whether the time before re-entering Power Save is sufficient, the following algorithm can be used to ensure that one TOSC1 cycle has elapsed:
1. Write a value to TCCR0, TCNT0 or OCR0
2. Wait until the corresponding Update Busy flag in ASSR returns to zero.
3. Enter Power Save mode
• When asynchronous operation is selected, the 32 kHz oscillator for Timer/Counter0 is always running, except in power
down mode. After a power up reset or wake-up from power down, the user should be aware of the fact that this oscillator might take as long as one second to stabilize. Therefore, the content of all Timer/Counter0 registers must be considered
42
ATmega603/103
ATmega603/103
lost after a wake-up from power down, due to the unstable clock signal. The user is advised to wait for at least one second before using Timer/Counter0 after power-up or wake-up from power down.
• Description of wake up from power save mode when the timer is clocked asynchronously: When the interrupt condition is
met, the wake up process is started on the following cycle of the timer clock, that is, the timer is always advanced by at least one before the processor can read the counter value. To execute the corresponding Timer/Counter0 interrupt routine, the global interrupt bit in SREG must have been set. Otherwise, the part will still wake up from power down, but continues to execute the sleep command. The interrupt flags are updated 3 processor cycles after the processor clock has started. During these cycles, the processor executes instructions, but the interrupt condition is not readable, and the interrupt routine has not started yet.
• During asynchronous operation, the synchronization of the interrupt flags for the asynchronous timer takes 3 processor
cycles plus one timer cycle. The timer is therefore advanced by at least one before the processor can read the timer value causing the setting of the interrupt flag. The output compare pin is changed on the timer clock, and is not synchronized to the processor clock.

16-bit Timer/Counter1

Figure 33 shows the block diagram for Timer/Counter1. The 16-bit Timer/Counter1 can select clock source from CK, prescaled CK, or an external pin. In addition it can be stopped
as described in the specification for the Timer/Counter1 Control Register - TCCR1B. The different status flags (overflow, compare match and capture event) are found in the Timer/Counter Interrupt Flag Register - TIFR. Control signals are found in the Timer/Counter1 Control Registers - TCCR1A and TCCR1B. The interrupt enable/disable settings for Timer/Counter1 are found in the Timer/Counter Interrupt Mask Register - TIMSK.
When Timer/Counter1 is externally clocked, the external signal is synchronized with the oscillator frequency of the CPU. To assure proper sampling of the external clock, the minimum time between two external clock transitions must be at least one internal CPU clock period. The external clock signal is sampled on the rising edge of the internal CPU clock.
The 16-bit Timer/Counter1 feat ures both a high re solut ion and a high accu racy usage w ith the lower presca ling op portun i­ties. Similarly, the high prescaling opportunities makes the Timer/Counter1 useful for lower speed functions or exact timing functions with infrequent actions.
The Timer/Counter1 sup ports two O utpu t Com par e func tions u si ng the Ou tput Com par e R egi st er 1 A an d B - O CR1A an d OCR1B as the data sources to be compared to the Timer/Counter1 contents. The Output Compare functions include optional clearing of the counter on compareA match, and actions on the Output Compare pins on both compare matches.

Timer/Counter1 can also be used as a 8, 9 or 10-bi t Pulse With Modulator. In this mode the counter and the OCR1A/OCR1B register s serve as a dual glitch-fr ee stand-alone PWM wi th centered pulses. Ref er to page 49 for a detailed description on this function.
The Input Capture function of Timer/Counter1 provides a capture of the Timer/Counter1 contents to the Input Capture Register - ICR1, triggered by an external event on the Input Capture Pi n - PD4/(IC1). The actual capture event settings are defined by the Timer/Counter1 Control Register - TCCR1B. In addition, the Analog Comparator can be set to trigger
the Input Capture. Refer to the par agraph, “The Anal og Comparator” , for details on this. T he ICP pin logic i s shown in Figure 34.

If the noise canceler function is enabled, the actual trigger condition for the capture event is monitored over 4 samples, and all 4 must be equal to activate the capture flag.

Bit 7 - ICNC1: Input Capture1 Noise Canceler (4 CKs)
When the ICNC1 bit is cleared (zero), the input capture trigger noise canceler function is disabled. The input capture is trig­gered at the first rising/fall ing edge sampled o n the input capture pin PD4(IC1) as specifi ed. When t he ICNC1 bit is set (one), four succ essive samp les are measures on PD4(I C1), and al l sampl es mus t be high/l ow accord ing to th e input cap­ture trigger specification in the ICES1 bit.

Bit 6 - ICES1: Input Capture1 Edge Select
• While the ICES1 bit is cleared (zero), the Timer/Counter1 contents are transferred to the Input Capture Register - ICR1 - on
the falling edge of the input capture pin - PD4(IC1). While the ICES1 bit is set (one), the Timer/Counter1 contents are trans­ferred to the Input Capture Register - ICR1 - on the rising edge of the input capture pin - PD4(IC1).

the CTC1 control bit is cleared, Timer/Counter1 continues counting and is unaffected by a compare match. Since the com­pare match is detected in the CPU clock cycle following the match, this function will behave differently when a prescaling higher than 1 is used for the timer. When a prescaling of 1 is used, and the c ompareA register is set to C, the timer will count as follows i CTC1 is set:
... | C-2 | C-1 | C | 0 | 1 | ... When the prescaler is set to divide by 8, the timer will count like this: ... | C-2, C-2, C-2, C-2, C-2, C-2, C-2, C-2 | C-1, C-1, C-1, C-1, C-1, C-1, C-1, C-1 | C, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 | ... In PWM mode, this bit has no effect.

The Stop condition provides a Timer Enable/Disable function. The CK down divided modes are scaled directly from the CK CPU clock. If the external pin modes are used for Timer/Counter1, transitions on PD6/(T1) will clock the counter even if the pin is configured as an output. This feature can give the user SW control of the counting.

This 16-bit register contain s the prescaled v alue of the 16-b it Timer/Counte r1. To ensure t hat both the high and low by tes are read and written sim ultane ously w hen the CP U acce sses these regis ters, the ac cess is pe rfor med u sing an 8-bit t em­porary register (TEMP). This temporary register is also used when accessing OCR1A, OCR1B and ICR1. If the main program and also interrupt routines perform access to registers using TEMP, interrupts must be disabl ed during access from the main program (and from interrupt routines if interrupts are allowed from within interrupt routines).
TCNT1 Timer/Counter1 Write:
When the CPU writes to the high byte TCNT1H, the wri tten data is pl aced in the TEMP r egister. Next , when the CPU writes the low byte TCNT1 L, th is byte of data is combi ned with the byte data in the TEMP regi ster, and all 16 bi ts ar e written to the TCNT1 Timer/Counter1 register simultaneously. Consequently, the high byte TCNT1H must be accessed first for a full 16-bit register write operation. When using Timer/Counter1 as an 8-bit timer, it is sufficient to write the low byte only.
• TCNT1 Timer/Counter1 Read:
When the CPU reads the low byte TCNT1L, the data of TCNT1L is sent to the CPU and the data of the high byte TCNT1H is placed in the TEMP register. When the CPU reads the data in the high byte TCNT1H, the CPU receives the data in the TEMP register. Consequently, the low byte TCNT1L must b e accessed first for a full 16- bit register read operation. When using Timer/counter1 as an 8-bit timer, it is sufficient to read the low byte only.
The Timer/Counter1 is realized as an up or up/down (in PWM mode) counter with read and write access. If Timer/Counter1 is written to and a clock sourc e is s electe d, the Timer /Counter1 conti nues counti ng in the c lock c ycle a fter it is pres et wi th the written value.

The output compare registers are 16-bit read/write registers. The Timer/Counter1 Outpu t Compare Regi sters cont ain the data to b e continuous ly compared with Timer/Coun ter1.
Actions on compare matches are specified in the Timer/Counter1 Control and Status register. A compare match does only occur if Timer/Counter1 counts to the OCR value. A software write that sets TCNT1 and OCR1A or OCR1B to the same value does not generate a compare match.
A compare match will set the compare interrupt flag in the CPU clock cycle following the compare event. Since the Output Compare Registers - OCR1A and OCR1B - are 16-bit registers, a temporary register TEMP is used when
OCR1A/B are written to ensure that bot h byte s are upd ated sim ult aneo us ly . When t he CPU write s the high byte, O CR1A H or OCR1BH, the data is temporarily stored in the TEMP register. When the CPU writes the low byte, OCR1AL or OCR1BL, the TEMP register is simultaneously written to OCR1AH or OCR1BH. Consequently, the high byte OCR1AH or OCR1BH must be written first for a full 16-bit register write operation.
The TEMP register is also used when accessing TCNT1, and ICR1. If the main program and also interrupt routines perform access to registers using TEMP, interrupts must be disabled during access from the main program.

Since the Input Capture Re gister - ICR1 - is a 16- bit registe r, a temporary register T EMP is us ed when ICR1 is read to ensure that both bytes are read simultaneously. When the CPU reads the low byte ICR1L, the data is sent to the CPU and the data of the high byte I CR1H i s plac ed in th e TEM P reg is ter . When the CPU reads the data in the hig h by te ICR1H, the CPU receives the data in the TEMP register. Consequently, the low byte ICR1L must be accessed first for a full 16-bit reg­ister read operation.
The TEMP register is also used when accessing TCNT1, OCR1A and OCR1B. If the main program and also interrupt routines perform access to registers using TEMP, interrupts must be disabled during access from the main program.

Timer/Counter1 in PWM mode

When the PWM mode is selected, Timer/Counter1 and the Output Compare Register1A - OCR1A and the Output Compare Register1B - OCR1B, form a dual 8, 9 or 10-bit, free-running, glitch-free and phase correct PWM with outputs on the PB5(OC1A) and PB6(OC1B) pins. Timer/Counter1 acts as an up/down counter, counting up from $0000 to TOP (see Table
17), where it turns and co unts down a gain to zer o before th e cycl e is rep eated. W hen th e coun ter valu e matc hes th e con­tents of the 10 least significant bits of OCR1A or OCR1B, the PB5(OC1A)/PB6(OC1B) pins are set or cleared according to the settings of the COM1A1/COM1A0 or COM1B1/COM1B0 bits in the Timer/Counter1 Control Register TCCR1A. Refer to Table 20 for details.

Note: X = A or B
Note that in the PWM mode, the 10 least significant OCR1A/OCR1B bits, when written, are transferred to a temporary loca­tion. They are latched when Timer/Counte r1 reaches the value TOP. This prevents the occurrence of odd-length PW M pulses (glitches) in the event of an unsynchronized OCR1A/OCR1B write. See Figure 35 for an example.

Watchdog Timer

The Watchdog Timer is clocked from a separate on-chip os cillator. By controlling the Watc hdog Timer prescaler, the Watchdog reset interval can be adjusted as shown in Table 22. See characterization data for typical values at other V levels. The WDR - Watchdog Reset - instruction resets the Watchdog Timer. From the Watchdog is reset, eight different clock cycle periods can be sel ected to determine the res et period. If the reset period expires without another Watc hdog reset, the ATmega603/103 resets and executes from the reset vector. For timing details on the Watchdog reset, refer to page 28.
To prevent unintentional disabling of the watchdog, a special turn-off procedure must be followed when the watchdog is disabled. Refer to the description of the Watchdog Timer Control Register for details.

Bit 3 - WDE: Watch Dog Enable
• When the WDE is set (one) the Watchdog Timer is enabled, and if the WDE is cleared (zero) the Watchdog Timer function
is disabled. WDE can only be cleared if the WDTOE bit is set (one). To disable an enabled watchdog timer, the following procedure must be followed:
1. In the same operation, write a logical one to WDTOE and WDE. A logical one must be written to WDE even though it is set to one before the disable operation starts.
2. Within the next four clock cycles, write a logical 0 to WDE. This disables the watchdog.

EEPROM Read/Write Access

The EEPROM access registers are accessible in the I/O space. The write access time is in th e r ang e of 2 .5 - 4ms , de pen di ng on the V
ware detect when the next byte can be written. A special EEPROM Ready interrupt can be set to trigger when the EEPROM is ready to accept new data.
In order to prevent un intent ional E EPROM writes, a s pecific write pro cedur e must be followe d. Refer to the descrip tion of the EEPROM control register for details on this.
When the EEPROM is written, the CPU is halted for two c lock cycles before th e next instruction is ex ecuted. When it is read, the CPU is halted for 4 clock cycles.

Bit 3 - EERIE: EEPROM Ready Interrupt Enable
When the I bit in SREG and EERIE are set (one), the EEPROM Ready Interrupt is enabled. When cleared (zero), the inter­rupt is disabled. The EEPROM Ready interrupt constantly generates an interrupt request when EEWE is cleared (zero).
Bit 2 - EEMWE: EEPROM Master Write Enable
The EEMWE bit determines whether setting EEWE to one causes the EEPROM to be written. When EEMWE is set(one) setting EEWE will wri te d ata t o the EE PROM at the selected addr es s If E EM WE is zer o, s ett ing EE WE will hav e n o ef fec t. When EEMWE has been set (one) by softwa re, hardwa re clears the bit to zero after four cloc k cycles. See the des criptio n of the EEWE bit for a EEPROM write procedure.
Bit 1 - EEWE: EEPROM Write Enable
The EEPROM Write Enable Signal EEWE is the write strobe to the EEPROM. When address and data are correctly set up, the EEWE bit must be set to write the value into the EEPROM. The EEMWE bit must be set when the logical one is written to EEWE, otherwise no EEP ROM write takes p lace. The following proc edure should be follow ed when writing the EEPROM (the order of steps 2 and 3 is unessential):
1. Wait until EEWE becomes zero.
2. Write new EEPROM address to EEAR (optional)
3. Write new EEPROM data to EEDR (optional)
4. Write a logical one to the EEMWE bit in EECR
5. Within four clock cycles after setting EEMWE, write a logical one to EEWE.
Caution: An interrupt between step 4 and step 5 will make the write cycle fail, since the EEPROM Master Write Enable will time-out. If an interrupt routine accessing the EEPROM is interrupting another EEPROM access, the EEAR and EEDR reg­ister will be modified, causing the interrupted EEPROM access to fail. It is recommended to have the global interrupt flag cleared during the 4 last steps to avoid these problems.
When the write access time (typically 2.5 ms at V (zero) by hardware. The user software can poll this bit and wait for a zero before writing the next byte. When EEWE has been set, the CPU is halted for two cycles before the next instruction is executed.
Bit 0 - EERE: EEPROM Read Enable
The EEPROM Read Enable Signal EERE is the read strobe to the EEPROM. When the correct address is s et up in the EEAR register, the EERE bit must be set. When the EERE bit is cleared (zero) by hardware, requested data is found in the EEDR register. The EEPROM read access takes one instruction there is no need to poll the EERE bit. When EERE has been set, the CPU is halted for four cycles before the next instruction is executed.

Prevent EEPROM Corruption

During periods of low V EEPROM to operate properly. These issues are the same as for board level systems using the EEPROM, and the same design solutions should be applied.
An EEPROM data cor ruptio n can be cau sed b y two si tuation s when the vo ltage is too low. Fi rst, a reg ular write s equenc e to the EEPROM req uires a minim um vo ltage to opera te corr ectly . Sec ondly, th e CPU it se lf can execute i nstru ctio ns inco r­rectly, if the supply voltage for executing instructions is too low.
EEPROM data corruption can easily be avoided by following these design recommendations (one is sufficient):
1. Keep the AVR RESET active (low) during periods of insufficient power supply voltage. This is best done by an exter­nal low V note AVR 180 for design considerations regarding power-on reset and low voltage detection.
2. Keep the AVR core in Power Down Sleep Mode during periods of low V ing to decode and execute instructions, effectively protecting the EEPROM registers from unintentional writes.
3. Store constants in Flash memory if the ability to change memory contents from software is not required. Flash memory can not be updated by the CPU, and will not be subject to corruption.

Serial Peripheral Interface - SPI

The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) allows high-speed synchronous data transfer between the ATmega603/103 and peripheral devices or between several AVR devices. The ATmega603/103 SPI features include the following:
• Full-Duplex, 3-Wire Synchronous Data Transfer
• Master or Slave Operation
• LSB First or MSB First Data Transfer
• Four Programmable Bit Rates
• End of Transmission Interrupt Flag
• Write Collision Flag Protection
• Wake-up from Idle Mode (Slave Mode Only)

The system is single buffered in the transmit direction and double buffered in the receive direction. This means that charac­ters to be transmitted cannot be written to the SPI Data Register before the entire shift cycle is completed.

SS Pin Functionality

When the SPI is configured as a master (MSTR in SPCR is set), the user can determine the direction of the SS configured as an output, the pin i s a general output pin which does not affect the SPI s ystem. If SS input, it must be hold high to ensure Master SPI operation. If the SS configured as master with the SS
pin defined as an input, the SPI system interprets this as another master selecting the
pin is driven low by peripheral circuitry when the SPI is
is configured as an
pin. If SS is
SPI as a slave and starting to send data to it. To avoid bus contention, the SPI system takes the following actions:
1. The MSTR bit in SPCR is cleared and the SPI system becomes a slave. As a result of the SPI becoming a slave, the MOSI and SCK pins become inputs.
2. The SPIF flag in SPSR is set, and if the SPI interrupt is enabled and the I-bit in SREG is set, the interrupt routine will be executed.
Thus, when interrupt-driven SPI transmittal is used in master mode, and there exists a possibility that SS
is driven low, the interrupt should a lwa ys c he ck that the MSTR bit is s til l se t. O n ce the MS TR b it has b een c lear ed by a sl av e s elec t, i t mus t be set by the user to re-enable SPI master mode.
When the SPI is configured as a slave, the SS becomes an output if configured so by the user. All other pins are inputs. When SS the SPI is passive, whic h m eans tha t it wil l no t rece iv e i nc oming data. Note that the SPI logic will be reset once the SS is brought high. If the SS
pin is brought high during a transmission, the SPI will stop sending and receiving immediately and
pin is always input. When SS is held low, the SPI is activated and MISO
is driven high, all pins are in puts, and
pin
both data received and data sent must be considered as lost.

UART

The ATmega603/103 features a full duplex (separate receive and transmit registers) Universal Asynchronous Receiver and Transmitter (UART). The main features are:
• Baud rate generator that can generate a large number of baud rates (bps)
• High baud rates at low XTAL frequencies
• 8 or 9 bits data
• Noise filtering
• Overrun detection
• Framing Error detection
• False Start Bit detection
• Three separate interrupts on TX Complete, TX Data Register Empty and RX Complete

Data Transmission

A block schematic of the UART transmitter is shown in Figure 41 Data transmission is initiated by writing the data to be transmitted to the UART I/O Data Register, UDR. Data is transferred
from UDR to the Transmit shift register when:
• A new character has been written to UDR after the stop bit from the previous character has been shifted out. The shift
register is loaded immediately.
• A new character has been written to UDR before the stop bit from the previous character has been shifted out. The shift
register is loaded when the stop bit of the character currently being transmitted has been shifted out.
If the 10(11)-bit Transmitter shift register is empty, data is transferred from UDR to the shift register. At this time the UDRE (UART Data Register Empty) bit in the UART Status Register, USR, is set. When this bit is set (one), the UART is ready to receive the next character. Writing to UDR clears UDRE. At the same time as the data is transferred from UDR to the 10(11)-bit shift register, bit 0 of the shift register is cleared (start bit) and bit 9 or 10 is set (stop bit). If 9 bit da ta word is selected (the CHR9 bit in the UART Control Regi ster, UCR is set), t he TX B8 bit i n UCR is transferred to bit 9 in the Trans­mit shift register.

The receiver front-end logic samples the signal on the RXD pin at a frequency 16 times the baud rate. While the line is idle, one single sample of logical zero will be interpreted as the falling edge of a start bit, and the start bit detection sequence is initiated. Let sample 1 denote the first zero-sample. Following the 1 to 0-transition, the receiver samples the RXD pin at sample 8, 9, and 10. If two or more of these thre e sampl es are found to be logical ones, the st art bit is reje cted as a no ise spike and the receiver starts looking for the next 1 to 0-transition.
If however, a valid start bit is detected, sampling of the data bits following the start bit is performed. These bits are also sampled at samples 8, 9, an d 10. The logic al val ue found in at least two of th e thre e sam ples is taken as the bit valu e. Al l bits are shifted into the transmitter shift register as they are sampled. Sampling of an incoming character is shown in Figure

When the stop bit e nte rs the rece iver, t he maj orit y of the thr ee sam ple s mu st be one to acc ept th e stop bit. If two or m ore samples are logical z er os , the Fram ing Error (FE) flag in the UAR T Statu s Re gi ste r (US R ) is set when th e r ec eived byte is transferred to UDR. Before reading the UDR register, the user should always check the FE bit to detect Framing Errors. FE is cleared when UDR is read.
Whether or not a valid stop bit is detected at the end of a character reception cycle, the data is transferred to UDR and the RXC flag in USR is set. UDR is in fact two physically separate registers, one for transmitted data and one for received data. When UDR is read, the Receive Data register is accessed, and when UDR is written, the Transmit Data register is accessed. If 9 bit d ata word is select ed (the CHR9 bit in th e UART Contr ol Regist er, UCR is set ), the RXB 8 bit in UCR is loaded with bit 9 in the Transmit shift register when data is transferred to UDR.
If, after having received a character, the UDR register has not been accessed since the last receive, the OverRun (OR) flag in USR is set. This means that the new data transferred to the shift register could not be transferred to UDR and is lost. The OR bit is buffered, and is available when the valid data byte in UDR ha s been read . The user sh ould al ways check the OR after reading from the UDR register in order to detect any overruns if the baud rate is high or CPU load is high.
When the RXEN bit in the UCR register is cleared (zero), the receiver is disabled. This means that the PE0 pin can be used as a general I/O pin. When RXEN is set, the UART Receiver will be connected to PE0, which is forced to be an input pin regardless of the setting o f the DD E0 bi t in DDRE.

Bit 2 - CHR9: 9 Bit Characters
• When this bit is set (one) transmitted and received characters are 9 bit long plus start and stop bits. The 9th bit is read and
written by using the RXB8 and TXB8 bits in UCR, respectively. The 9th data bit can be used as an extra stop bit or a parity bit.
Bit 1 - RXB8: Receive Data Bit 8
• When CHR9 is set (one), RXB8 is the 9th data bit of the received character.

Bit 0 - TXB8: Transmit Data Bit 8
When CHR9 is set (one), TXB8 is the 9th data bit in the character to be transmitted.

Baud Rate Generator

The baud rate generator is a frequency divider which generates baud rates according to the following equation:
f
BAUD
CK
------------------------------------- -= 16 UBRR 1+
()
• BAUD = Baud Rate
= CPU Clock frequency
•f
CK
• UBRR = Contents of the UART Baud Rate register, UBRR (0 - 255) For standard crystal frequencies, the most commonly used baud rates c an be generated by using the UBRR settings in
Table 25. Observe that CPU c lock fr equency can be l ower than th e XTAL frequency if the XTAL divider is enabled. UBRR values which yiel d an actua l baud rate di ffering l ess than 2% from the tar get baud r ate, are bol ded in the table. Howe ver, using baud rates that have more than 1% error is not recommended. High error ratings give less noise resistance.

The UBRR is an 8-bit read/write register which specifies the UART Baud Rate according to the description on the previous page.

Analog Comparator

The analog comparator compares the input values on the positive input PE2 (AC+) and negative input PE3 (AC-). When the voltage on the positive input PE2 (AC+) is higher than the voltage on the negative input PE3 (AC-), the Analog Compar­ator Output, ACO is set (one) . The output of the compara tor can be set to trigger the Timer /Counter1 Input Captur e function. In addition, the comparator can trigger a separate interrupt, exclusive to the Analog Comparator. The user can select Interrupt trigg ering on compar ator o utput ris e, fall, or toggle . A blo ck diagram of th e compar ator and it s sur roundin g logic is shown in Figure 44.

Bit 5 - ACO: Analog Comparator Output
• ACO is directly connected to the comparator output.

Bit 4 - ACI: Analog Comparator Interrupt Flag
This bit is set (one) when a comparator output event triggers the interrupt mode defined by ACI1 and ACI0. The Analog Comparator Interrupt routine is executed if the ACIE bit is set (one) and the I-bit in SREG is set (one). ACI is cleared by hardware when executing the corresponding interrupt handling vector. Alternatively, ACI is cleared by writing a logic one to the flag. Observe however, that if another bit in this register is modified using the SBI or CBI instruction, ACI will be cleared if it has become set before the operation.
Bit 3 - ACIE: Analog Comparator Interrupt Enable
• When the ACIE bit is set (one) and the I-bit in the Status Register is set (one), the analog comparator interrupt is activated.
When cleared (zero), the interrupt is disabled.
Bit 2 - ACIC: Analog Comparator Input Capture enable
• When set (one), this bit enables the Input Capture function in Timer/Counter1 to be triggered by the analog comparator.
The comparator output is in this case directly connected to the Input Capture front-end logic, making the comparator utilize the noise canceler and edge select features of the Timer/Counter1 Input Capture interrupt. When cleared (zero), no con­nection between the analog comparator and the Input Capture function is giv en. To make the comparator trigger the Timer/Counter1 Input Capture interrupt, the TICIE1 bit in the Timer Interrupt Mask Register (TIMSK) must be set (one).
Bits 1,0 - ACIS1, ACIS0: Analog Comparator Interrupt Mode Select
• These bits determine which comparator events that trigger the Analog Comparator interrupt. The different settings are
shown in Table 26.

When changing the ACIS1/ ACIS0 bits, The Anal og Com parator Interrup t must be dis abled by clea ring its Interr upt En able bit in the ACSR register. Otherwise an interrupt can occur when the bits are changed.
Caution: Using the SBI or CBI instruction on other bits than ACI in this register, will write a one back into ACI if it is read as set, thus clearing the flag.

Operation

The ADC operates in Single Conversion mode, and each conversion will have to be initiated by the user. The ADC is enabled by writing a logical one to the ADC Enable bit, ADEN in ADCSR. The first conversion that is started
after enabling the A DC, wi ll be prec ed ed by a d umm y co nv er sion to initialize the A DC. To the user, the only diffe renc e w il l be that this conversion takes 13 more ADC clock pulses than a normal conversion. (See Figure 48.)
A conversion is started by writing a logical one to the ADC Start Conversion bit, ADSC. This bit will stay high as long as the conversion is in pr ogre ss an d be set to z ero b y ha rdwa re whe n the con vers ion is co mplet ed. I f a d iffer ent data chan nel is selected while a co nversion is in progress, th e ADC will f inish the cur rent conversion be fore performi ng the channe l change.
As the ADC generates a 10-bit result, two data registers, ADCH and ADCL, must be read to get the result when the conver­sion is complete . S pec ial data protection log ic i s us ed to en su re th at t he co nten ts of the data registers bel ong to th e s am e result when they are read. This mechanism works as follows:
When reading data, ADCL must be read first. Once ADCL is read, ADC access to data registers is blocked. This means that if ADCL has been read, an d a conv ersion c omple tes before ADCH is read, none of the regis ters are updated and the result from the conversion is lost. When ADCH is read, ADC access to the ADCH and ADCL registers is re-enabled.
The ADC has its own interrupt, ADIF, which can be triggered when a conversion completes. When ADC access to the data registers is prohibited between reading of ADCL and ADCH, the interrupt will trigger even if the result is lost.

The ADC contains a prescaler, which divides the system clock to an acceptable ADC clock frequency. The ADC accepts input clock frequencies in the range 50 - 200 kHz. Applying a higher input frequency will result in a poorer accuracy, see
“ADC DC Characteristics” on page 72. The ADPS0 - ADPS2 bits in A DCSR are used to g enerate a pr oper ADC cl ock input fre quency from any XTAL fre quency
above 100 kHz. The prescaler starts counting from the moment the ADC is switched on by setting the ADEN bit in ADCSR. The prescaler keeps running for as long as the ADEN bit is set, and is continuously reset when ADEN is low.
When initiating a conversion by setting the ADSC bit in ADCSR, the conversion starts at the following falling edge of the ADC clock cycle. The actual sample-and-hold takes place one ADC clock cycle after the start of the conversion. The result is ready and written to the ADC Result Register after 13 cycles. The ADC needs 2 more clock cycles before a new conver­sion can be started. If ADSC is set high in this period, the ADC will start the new conversion immediately. For a summary of conversion times, see Table 27.

ADC Noise Canceler Function

The ADC features a nois e canc el er th at e nabl es c onv ers ion du ring idl e m ode to r ed uc e no ise i ndu ce d fr om the CP U co r e. To make use of this feature, the following procedure should be used:
1. Turn off the ADC by clearing ADEN.
2. Turn on the ADC and simultaneously start a conversion by setting ADEN and ADSC. This starts a dummy conversion that will be followed by a valid conversion.
3. Within 14 ADC clock cycles, enter idle mo de.
4. If no other interrupts occur before the ADC conversion completes, the ADC interrupt will wake up the MCU and execute the ADC conversion complete interrupt routine.

Bit 7 - ADEN: ADC Enable
Writing a logical ‘1’ to this bit enables the ADC. By clearing this bit to zero, the ADC is turned off. Turning the ADC off while a conversion is in progress, will terminate this conversion.
Bit 6 - ADSC: ADC Start Conversion
A logical ‘1’ must be written to this bit to start each conversion. The first time ADSC has been written after the ADC has been enabled, or if ADSC is written at the same time as the ADC is enabled, a dummy conversion will precede the initiated conversion. This dummy conversion performs initialization of the ADC.
ADSC remains high during the conversion. ADSC goes low after the conversion is complete, but before the result is written to the ADC Da ta Regi st ers.

ADC Noise Canceling Techniques

Digital circuitry inside and outside the ATmega603/103 generates EMI which might affect the accuracy of analog measure­ments. If conversion accuracy is critical, the noise level can be reduced by applying the following techniques:
1. The analog part of the ATmega603/103 and all analog components in the application should have a separate ana­log ground plane on the PCB. This ground plane is connected to the digital ground plane via a single point on the PCB.
2. Keep analog signal paths as short as possible. Make sure analog tracks run over the analog ground plane, and keep them well away from high-speed switching digital tracks.
3. The AV
4. Use the ADC noise canceler function to reduce induced noise from the CPU.
5. If some Port F pins are used as digital inputs, it is essential that these do not switch while a conversion is in progress.

Interface to external SRAM

The interface to the SRAM consists of:
• Port A: Multiplexed low-order address bus and data bus
• Port C: High-order address bus
• The ALE-pin: Address latch enable
• The RD The external data SRAM is ena bl ed b y sett ing the SRE - Externa l S RA M enabl e bi t of the MCUCR - M CU cont rol reg ister,
and will override th e setting of th e data directi on register DDR A. When the SR E bit is clear ed (zero), th e external dat a SRAM is disabled, and the normal pin and data direction settings are used. When SRE is cleared (zero), the address space above the internal SRAM boundary is not mapped into the internal SRAM, as in AVR parts not having interface to the external SRAM.
When ALE goes from high to low, there is a valid address on Port A. ALE is low during a data transfer. RD active when accessing the external SRAM only.
When the external SRAM is enabled, the ALE signal may have short pulses when accessing the internal RAM, but the ALE signal is stable when accessing the external SRAM.
Figure 50 sketches how to connect an external SRAM to the AVR using 8 latches which are transparent when G is high. Default, the external SRAM access is a three-cycle scheme as depicted in Figure 51. When one extra wait state is needed

I/O-Ports

All AVR ports h ave true Read-Modify-Write fun ctionality when used as ge ner al digital I/O ports. Thi s mea ns th at the direc­tion of one port pin can be changed without unintentionally changing the direction of any other pin with the SBI and CBI instructions. The same applies for changing drive value (if configured as output) or enabling/disabling of pull-up resistors (if configured as input).

Port A

Port A is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-ups. Three I/O memory address locations are allocated for Port A, one each for the Data Register - PORTA, $1B($3B), Data
Direction Register - DDRA, $1A($3A) and the Port A Input Pins - PINA, $19($39). The Port A Input Pins address is read only, while the Data Register and the Data Direction Register are read/write.
All port pins have indiv idually selecta ble pull-up resistors. T he Port A output buffers can sink 20mA and thu s drive LED displays directly. When pins PA0 to PA7 are used as i nputs and are externally pulled low, they will sourc e current if the internal pull-up resistors are activated.
The Port A pins have alternate functions related to the optional external data SRAM. Port A can be configured to be the multiplexed low-order address/data bus during accesses to the byte.
When Port A is set to the alternate function by the SRE - External SRAM Enable - bit in the MCUCR - MCU Control Regis­ter, the alternate settings override the data direction register.

The ATmega603/103 has four Fuse bits, SPIEN, SUT1..0, and EESAVE.
• When the SPIEN Fuse is programmed (‘0’), Serial Program and Data Downloading is enabled. Default value is programmed (‘0’). The SPIEN Fuse is not accessible in serial programming mode.
• When EESAVE is programmed, the EEPROM memory is preserved through the Chip Erase cycle. Default value is unprogrammed (‘1’). The EESAVE Fuse bit can not be programmed if any of the Lock bits are programmed.
• SUT1..0 Fuses: Determine the MCU start-up time. See Table 6 on page 26 for further details. Default value is un­programmed (‘11’), which gives a nominal start up time of 16 ms.
The status of the Fuse bits is not affected by Chip Erase.

Signature Bytes

All Atmel microcontrollers have a three-byte signature code which identifies the device. This code can be read in both serial and parallel mode. The three bytes reside in a separate address space.
For the ATmega603 they are:
1. $000: $1E (indicates manufactured by Atmel)
2. $001: $96 (indicates 64 Kb Flash memory)
3. $002: $01 (indicates ATmega603 when signature byte $001 is $96)
For the ATmega103 they are:
1. $000: $1E (indicates manufactured by Atmel)
2. $001: $97 (indicates 128 Kb Flash memory)
3. $002: $01 (indicates ATmega103 when signature byte $001 is $97)

Programming the Flash and EEPROM

Atmel’s ATmega603/103 offers 64K/128K bytes of in-system reprogrammable Flash memory and 2K/4K bytes of EEPROM Data memory.
The ATmega603/103 is shipped with the on-chip Flash Program and EEPROM Data memory arrays in the erased state (i.e. contents = $FF) and ready to be programmed. This device supports a High-Voltage (12V) Parallel programming mode and a Low-Voltage Ser ial pro grammin g mo de. The + 12V supp lied i s used fo r progr ammi ng enab le onl y, and no c urrent of significance is dr awn by thi s pin. The serial programmi ng mod e p ro vides a co nv eni ent way to dow nlo ad p r ogram and data into the ATmega603/103 inside the user’s system.
The Flash Program memory array on the ATmega603/103 is organized as 256/512 pages of 256 bytes each. When pro­gramming the Fla sh, the program dat a is latched into a pag e buffer. This allow s one page of program data to be programmed simultaneously in either programming mode.
The EEPROM Data memory array on the ATmega603/103 is programmed byte-by-byte in either programming mode. An auto-erase cycle is provided within the self-timed EEPROM write instruction in the serial programming mode.
During programming, the supply voltage must be in accordance with Table 37

Chip Erase

The Chip Erase will erase the Flas h and EEP ROM me mories , and Lock bi ts. The Loc k bits are not reset un til the prog ram memory has been completely erased. The Fuse bits are not changed. A chip erase must be performed before the Flash or EEPROM is reprogrammed.
Load Command “Chip Erase”
1. Set XA1, XA0 to ‘10’. This enables command loading.
2. Set BS1 to ‘0’.
3. Set DATA to ‘1000 0000’. This is the command for Chip erase.
4. Give XTAL1 a positive pulse. This loads the command.

Programming The EEPROM

The programming algor ithm for th e EEPRO M data mem ory is a s follows ( refer to P rogramming the Flash for details on Command, Address and Data loading):
1. A: Load Command ‘0001 0001’.
2. H: Load Address High Byte ($00-$07/$0F)
3. B: Load Address Low Byte ($00 - $FF)
4. E: Load Data Low Byte ($00 - $FF) L: Write Data Low Byte
1. Set BS to ‘0’. This selects low data.
2. Give WR

goes high to program the next byte. (See Figure 75 for signal waveforms.) The loaded command and address are retained in the device during programming. For efficient programming, the following
should be considered.
• The command needs only be loaded once when writing or reading multiple memory locations.
• Address high byte needs only be loaded before programming a new 256 word page in the EEPROM.
• Skip writing the data value $FF, that is the contents of the entire EEPROM after a Chip Erase. These considerations also applies to Flash, EEPROM and Signature bytes reading.
