The high-performance, low-power Atmel 8-bit AVR RISC-based microcontroller combines 8KB of programmable flash memory, 544B internal memory, up to 64KB external SRAM, and 512B EEPROM. The device supports a throughput of 16 MIPS at 16MHz and operates between 2.7-5.5 volts.
By executing instructions in a single clock cycle, the device achieves throughputs approaching 1 MIPS per MHz, balancing power consumption and processing speed.
