AVR XMEGA™ MiCROCOnTOLLERS System Performance For Embedded systems, system performance is much more than a good MiPS number. it is important to have powerful peripherals and features that allow the application to run smoothly with minimum power consumption. AVR CPU and instruction Set The AVR XMEGA uses the AVR RiSC CPU which is created for high level C code development.
DMA Controller The AVR XMEGA’s 4-channel Direct Memory Access (DMA) Controller enables fast, CPU independent data transfer between any locations in the data memory space and the peripherals. Flexible channel priority selection, several address- ing modes and double buffering capabilities. The DMA Controller a powerful module for all data oriented applications such as signal processing and industrial control.
AVR XMEGA™ MiCROCOnTOLLERS Clock System AVR XMEGA’s clock system allow flexible change of frequency. Dynamic Clock Switching allows the Embedded Designer to tune performance and power consumption to fit the application. The internal PLL and prescaler can be used to scale the clock sources dynamically up or down to further match application requirements. With a built-in External Oscillator failure detection and internal RC oscillator with ±...
