External Memory
Interface With all the features the External Memory Interface provides, it is well suited to operate
as an interface to memory devices such as external SRAM and FLASH, and peripherals
such as LCD-display, A/D, and D/A. The main features are:
•
Four Different Wait-state Settings (Including No Wait-state)
• Independent Wait-state Setting for Different External Memory Sectors (Configurable
Sector Size)
• The Number of Bits Dedicated to Address High Byte is Selectable
• Bus Keepers on Data Lines to Minimize Current Consumption (Optional)
Overview When the eXternal MEMory (XMEM) is enabled, address space outside the internal
SRAM becomes available using the dedicated external memory pins (see Figure 1 on
page 2, Table 29 on page 69, Table 35 on page 74, and Table 41 on page 80). The
memory configuration is shown in Figure 11.

Note: 1. Address depends on the ATmega161 compatibility Fuse. See “SRAM Data Memory”
on page 16 and Figure 9 on page 17 for details.
Using the External Memory
Interface The interface consists of:
• AD7:0: Multiplexed low-order address bus and data bus
• A15:8: High-order address bus (configurable number of bits)
• ALE: Address latch enable
• RD: Read strobe.
• WR: Write strobe.
