Microchip Technology ATMEGA8-16PU Embedded microcontroller PDIP 28 8-Bit 16 MHz I/O number 23

The ATMEGA8-16PU belongs to the AVR microcontroller family by Atmel, which is based on an entirely new architecture. It is a real RISC architecture in which the quartz frequency is not internally divided, ie a 10 MHz quartz crystal gives an order throughput of 10 million orders per second. The relatively low oscillation frequency means that power consumption remains very low. All AVRs have flash programme memories, EEPROM data memories and can be programmed in the system. Programming of the OnChip flash and EEPROM memory functions solely by sendind commands. No programming voltage is required. The AVRs have 32 equivalent registers that can be used in parallel. The command set comprises 120 instructions allowing you to write extremely efficient programmes.
