Microchip Technology, Inc. Microcontrollers ATMEGA168A-PU

The ATmega168A-PU is an 8-bit microcontroller from the AVR¬Æ family, designed for low power consumption and high performance. It operates at a voltage range of 1.8 to 5.5V and can achieve up to 20 MIPS throughput at 20MHz. The microcontroller features 16KB of in-system self-programmable Flash memory, 512 bytes of EEPROM, and 1KB of SRAM, making it suitable for a variety of applications requiring moderate memory capacity. This device includes 23 programmable I/O lines and supports multiple communication interfaces, including USART, SPI, and I2C. It also features several timers, an 8-channel 10-bit ADC, and supports capacitive touch sensing through the QTouch¬Æ library. The ATmega168A-PU is capable of operating in various power modes, including active, power-down, and power-save modes, which contribute to its efficiency in battery-operated devices. With a temperature range of -40¬8C to 85¬8C, this microcontroller is suitable for industrial applications. Its robust features and flexibility make it a viable option for engineers looking for a reliable microcontroller for embedded systems.
