Register Description

8.7.1

EEARH and EEARL – The EEPROM Address Registers

• Bits 15:10 – Res: Reserved

These bits are reserved and will always read as zero.

• Bits 9:0 – EEAR[8:0]: EEPROM Address

The EEPROM Address Registers – EEARH and EEARL specify the EEPROM address in the
512B/1K/2K bytes EEPROM space. The EEPROM data bytes are addressed linearly between 0
and 1023. The initial value of EEAR is undefined. A proper value must be written before the
EEPROM may be accessed.

8.7.2

EEDR – The EEPROM Data Register

• Bits 7:0 – EEDR[7:0]: EEPROM Data

For the EEPROM write operation, the EEDR Register contains the data to be written to the
EEPROM in the address given by the EEAR Register. For the EEPROM read operation, the
EEDR contains the data read out from the EEPROM at the address given by EEAR.

8.7.3

EECR – The EEPROM Control Register

• Bits 7:6 – Reserved Bits

These bits are reserved and will always read as zero.

• Bits 5:4 – EEPM1 and EEPM0: EEPROM Programming Mode Bits

The EEPROM Programming mode bit setting defines which programming action that will be trig-
gered when writing EEWE. It is possible to program data in one atomic operation (erase the old
value and program the new value) or to split the Erase and Write operations in two different
operations. The Programming times for the different modes are shown in
