with the exception that the Oscillator is kept running. From Standby mode, the device wakes up
in six clock cycles.

Notes:

1. Only recommended with external crystal or resonator selected as clock source.
2. Only level interrupt.

Power Reduction Register

The Power Reduction Register, PRR, provides a method to stop the clock to individual peripher-
als to reduce power consumption. The current state of the peripheral is frozen and the I/O
registers can not be read or written. Resources used by the peripheral when stopping the clock
will remain occupied, hence the peripheral should in most cases be disabled before stopping the
clock. Waking up a module, which is done by clearing the bit in PRR, puts the module in the
same state as before shutdown.

A full predictible behaviour of a peripheral

is not guaranteed during and after a cycle of stopping

and starting of its clock. So its recommended to stop a peripheral before stopping its clock with
PRR register.

Module shutdown can be used in Idle mode and Active mode to significantly reduce the overall
power consumption. In all other sleep modes, the clock is already stopped.

Power Reduction Register - PRR

• Bit 7 -

Res: Reserved Bit

This bit is unused bit in the ATmega32/64/M1/C1, and will always read as zero.

• Bit 6 - PRCAN: Power Reduction CAN

Writing a logic one to this bit reduces the consumption of the CAN by stopping the clock to this
module. When waking up the CAN again, the CAN should be re initialized to ensure proper
operation.

• Bit 5 - PRPSC: Power Reduction PSC
