    The BEAD should provide enough impedance (for example, 220Ω at 100MHz, rated current 200mA, that is, Murata BLM15BB221SN1D) for separating the digital power to the analog power. Atmel AT01080: XMEGA E Schematic Checklist [APPLICATION NOTE] 42087A−AVR−04/2013...
  • Page 4: External Analog Reference Connections

    External analog reference connections Atmel AVR XMEGA E proposes one ADC using internal references or an external analog reference (AREFA on PORTA or AREFD on PORTD). The following schematic checklist is only recommended if the design is using the external analog reference. If the internal reference is used, the circuit is not necessary.

    ESR must be taken into consideration. Both values are specified by the crystal vendor. The Atmel AVR XMEGA E oscillator is optimized for very low power consumption, and thus when selecting crystals, Table 3-3 for maximum ESR recommendations on 9pF and 12.5pF crystals.
