Relative Program Addressing, RJMP and RCALL

Figure 19. Relative Program Memory Addressing

Program execution continues at address PC + k + 1. The relative address k is -2048 to 2047.

EEPROM Data Memory

The EEPROM memory is organized as a separate data space, in which single bytes can be read and written. The
EEPROM has an endurance of at least 100,000 write/erase cycles. The access between the EEPROM and the CPU is
described on page 52 specifying the EEPROM address register, the EEPROM data register, and the EEPROM control
register.

Memory Access Times and Instruction Execution Timing

This section describes the general access timing concepts for instruction execution and internal memory access.

The AVR CPU is driven by the System Clock Ø, directly generated from the external clock crystal for the chip. No internal
clock division is used.

Figure 20 shows the parallel instruction fetches and instruction executions enabled by the Harvard architecture and the
fast-access register file concept. This is the basic pipelining concept to obtain up to 1 MIPS per MHz with the corresponding
unique results for functions per cost, functions per clocks, and functions per power-unit.

Figure 20. The Parallel Instruction Fetches and Instruction Executions

Figure 21 shows the internal timing concept for the register file. In a single clock cycle an ALU operation using two register
operands is executed, and the result is stored back to the destination register.
