ATMEGA48A-PU Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The ATMEGA48A-PU is an 8-bit AVR microcontroller from Microchip Technology, part of the megaAVR family. It features a high-performance RISC architecture capable of up to 20 MIPS throughput at 20MHz. The device includes 4KB of in-system programmable Flash memory, 512 bytes of SRAM, and 256 bytes of EEPROM, with high endurance ratings of 10,000 Flash write/erase cycles and 100,000 EEPROM cycles.

 

The microcontroller offers a range of peripherals including two 8-bit timers, one 16-bit timer, six PWM channels, a 6-channel 10-bit ADC, and serial communication interfaces (USART, SPI, I2C). It also includes brown-out detection, power-on reset, and watchdog timer for reliable operation. The operating voltage range is 1.8V to 5.5V, making it suitable for both low-power and standard applications.

 

The device is available in a 28-pin PDIP package (through-hole mounting) and operates over an industrial temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. Its low power consumption — 0.2mA in active mode at 1MHz and 0.1µA in power-down mode — makes it ideal for battery-powered and energy-sensitive designs.
