Calibrated Internal RC Oscillator
By default, the Internal RC OScillator provides an approximate 8.0 MHz clock. Though voltage
and temperature dependent, this clock can be very accurately calibrated by the user. The device
is shipped with the CKDIV8 Fuse programmed. See
“System Clock Prescaler” on page 34
for
more details.
This clock may be selected as the system clock by programming the CKSEL Fuses as shown in
. If selected, it will operate with no external components. During reset, hardware loads
the pre-programmed calibration value into the OSCCAL Register and thereby automatically cal-
ibrates the RC Oscillator. The accuracy of this calibration is shown as Factory calibration in
By changing the OSCCAL register from SW, see
“OSCCAL – Oscillator Calibration Register” on
, it is possible to get a higher calibration accuracy than by using the factory calibration.
The accuracy of this calibration is shown as User calibration in
“Clock Characteristics” on page
.
When this Oscillator is used as the chip clock, the Watchdog Oscillator will still be used for the
Watchdog Timer and for the Reset Time-out. For more information on the pre-programmed cali-
bration value, see the section .
Notes:
1. The device is shipped with this option selected.
2. If 8 MHz frequency exceeds the specification of the device (depends on V
CC
), the CKDIV8
Fuse can be programmed in order to divide the internal frequency by 8.
When this Oscillator is selected, start-up times are determined by the SUT Fuses as shown in
Notes:
1. If the RSTDISBL fuse is programmed, this start-up time will be increased to
14CK + 4.1 ms to ensure programming mode can be entered.
