Description :

The ATmega16A-AU is a feature-rich member of the megaAVR family. Built on an Advanced RISC Architecture, it can execute powerful instructions in a single clock cycle, achieving a throughput of up to 16 MIPS at 16 MHz. This efficiency allows system designers to precisely balance processing speed and power consumption.

The device includes 16KB of self-programming Flash memory for code, 1KB of SRAM for data, and 512 bytes of EEPROM for non-volatile parameter storage. Its integrated peripherals, such as the 8-channel 10-bit ADC, four PWM channels, and multiple serial interfaces (USART, SPI, I²C), make it a complete system-on-chip solution for complex control tasks. With its robust feature set and wide operating voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V, the ATmega16A-AU is an ideal choice for industrial, automotive, consumer, and hobbyist projects.
