Atmel AVR543: Migration from
ATmega645/6450/649/6490 to
ATmega645A/6450A/649A/6490A
1 Introduction
®
The Atmel
ATmega645A/6450A/649A/6490A is a functionally identical, drop-in
replacement for the Atmel ATmega645/6450/649/6490. All devices are subject to
the same qualification process and same set of production tests, but some
electrical characteristics differ.
ATmega645/6450/649/6490 and ATmega645A/6450A/649A/6490A have separate
datasheets. This application note outlines the differences between the two devices
and between the datasheets. There is also a detailed change log to assist the user
at the end of the ATmega645A/6450A/649A/6490A datasheet. Remember to
always use the latest revision of the device datasheet.
Minor differences in typical characteristics are not discussed in this document as
long as the low and high limits remain the same. For detailed information about the
typical characteristics, see sections "Electrical Characteristics" and "Typical
Characteristics" of the device datasheets.
Note: This application note serves as a guide to ease migration. For complete

  • Page 1 The Atmel ATmega645A/6450A/649A/6490A is a functionally identical, drop-in Application Note replacement for the Atmel ATmega645/6450/649/6490. All devices are subject to the same qualification process and same set of production tests, but some electrical characteristics differ. ATmega645/6450/649/6490 and ATmega645A/6450A/649A/6490A have separate datasheets.
  • Page 2: Low Frequency Crystal Oscillator

    2.3 Low frequency crystal oscillator In ATmega645A/6450A/649A/6490A the crystal driver strength of the Low Frequency Crystal Oscillator is reduced compared to the ATmega645/6450/649/6490. This means that when selecting a crystal, its load capacitance and Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) must be taken into consideration. Both values are specified by the crystal vendor.

Crystals usually need ~3000ms before they are completely stable with any oscillator design. The time stated is before the crystal is running with a sufficient amplitude and frequency stability.

  • Page 5 4 Appendix A Table 4-1 is a selection of crystals that meet the ESR requirements of the Atmel ATmega645A/6450A/649A/6490A. The crystals are listed based on datasheet information and are not tested with the actual device. Any other crystal that complies with the ESR requirements can also be used.
