ATmega328P [Preliminary]

29. Typical Characteristics

The data contained in this section are characterized values of actual automotive silicon. Unless

otherwise specified, the data contained in this chapter are for -40° to 125°C.

The following charts show typical behavior. These figures are not tested during manufacturing.

All current consumption measurements are performed with all I/O pins configured as inputs and

with internal pull-ups enabled. A square wave generator with rail-to-rail output is used as clock

source.

All Active- and Idle current consumption measurements are done with all bits in the PRR register

set and thus, the corresponding I/O modules are turned off. Also the Analog Comparator is dis-

abled during these measurements. The “Supply Current of IO Modules” shows the additional

current consumption compared to I

CC Active and ICC Idle for every I/O module controlled by the

Power Reduction Register. See “Power Reduction Register” on page 40 for details.

The power consumption in Power-down mode is independent of clock selection.

The current consumption is a function of several factors such as: operating voltage, operating

frequency, loading of I/O pins, switching rate of I/O pins, code executed and ambient tempera-

ture. The dominating factors are operating voltage and frequency.

The current drawn from capacitive loaded pins may be estimated (for one pin) as C

L*VCC*f where

L = load capacitance, VCC = operating voltage and f = average switching frequency of I/O pin.

The parts are characterized at frequencies higher than test limits. Parts are not guaranteed to

function properly at frequencies higher than the ordering code indicates.

The difference between current consumption in Power-down mode with Watchdog Timer

enabled and Power-down mode with Watchdog Timer disabled represents the differential cur-

rent drawn by the Watchdog Timer.
