Overview The XMEGA A3 is a family of low power, high performance and peripheral rich CMOS 8/16-bit microcontrollers based on the AVR (R) enhanced RISC architecture. By executing powerful instructions in a single clock cycle, the XMEGA A3 achieves throughputs approaching 1 Million Instructions Per Second (MIPS) per MHz allowing the system designer to optimize power consumption versus processing speed. The AVR CPU combines a rich instruction set with 32 general purpose working registers. All the 32 registers are directly connected to the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU), allowing two independent registers to be accessed in one single instruction, executed in one clock cycle. The resulting architecture is more code efficient while achieving throughputs many times faster than conventional single-accumulator or CISC based microcontrollers. The XMEGA A3 devices provide the following features: In-System Programmable Flash with Read-While-Write capabilities, Internal EEPROM and SRAM, four-channel DMA Controller, eight-channel Event System, Programmable Multi-level Interrupt Controller, 50 general purpose I/O lines, 16-bit Real Time Counter (RTC), seven flexible 16-bit Timer/Counters with compare modes and PWM, seven USARTs, two Two Wire Serial Interfaces (TWIs), three Serial Peripheral Interfaces (SPIs), AES and DES crypto engine, two 8-channel 12-bit ADCs with optional differential input with programmable gain, one 2-channel 12-bit DACs, four analog comparators with window mode, programmable Watchdog Timer with separate Internal Oscillator, accurate internal oscillators with PLL and prescaler and programmable Brown-Out Detection. The Program and Debug Interface (PDI), a fast 2-pin interface for programming and debugging, is available. The devices also have an IEEE std. 1149.1 compliant JTAG test interface, and this can also be used for On-chip Debug and programming. The XMEGA A3 devices have five software selectable power saving modes. The Idle mode stops the CPU while allowing the SRAM, DMA Controller, Event System, Interrupt Controller and all peripherals to continue functioning. The Power-down mode saves the SRAM and register contents but stops the oscillators, disabling all other functions until the next TWI or pin-change interrupt, or Reset. In Power-save mode, the asynchronous Real Time Counter continues to run, allowing the application to maintain a timer base while the rest of the device is sleeping. In Standby mode, the Crystal/Resonator Oscillator is kept running while the rest of the device is sleeping. This allows very fast start-up from external crystal combined with low power consumption. In Extended Standby mode, both the main Oscillator and the Asynchronous Timer continue to run. To further reduce power consumption, the peripheral clock for each individual peripheral can optionally be stopped in Active mode and Idle sleep mode. The device is manufactured using Atmel's high-density nonvolatile memory technology. The program Flash memory can be reprogrammed in-system through the PDI or JTAG. A Bootloader running in the device can use any interface to download the application program to the Flash memory. The Bootloader software in the Boot Flash section will continue to run while the Application Flash section is updated, providing true Read-While-Write operation. By combining an 8/16-bit RISC CPU with In-System Self-Programmable Flash, the Atmel XMEGA A3 is a powerful microcontroller family that provides a highly flexible and cost effective solution for many embedded applications. The XMEGA A3 devices are supported with a full suite of program and system development tools including: C compilers, macro assemblers, program debugger/simulators, programmers, and evaluation kits. 3 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 3.1 Block Diagram Figure 3-1.

AVR CPU 6.1 Features * 8/16-bit high performance AVR RISC Architecture * * * * * * * 6.2 - 138 instructions - Hardware multiplier 32x8-bit registers directly connected to the ALU Stack in RAM Stack Pointer accessible in I/O memory space Direct addressing of up to 16M bytes of program and data memory True 16/24-bit access to 16/24-bit I/O registers Support for 8-, 16- and 32-bit Arithmetic Configuration Change Protection of system critical features Overview The XMEGA A3 uses an 8/16-bit AVR CPU. The main function of the AVR CPU is to ensure correct program execution. The CPU must therefore be able to access memories, perform calculations and control peripherals. Interrupt handling is described in a separate section. Figure 6-1 on page 6 shows the CPU block diagram. Figure 6-1. CPU block diagram DATA BUS Flash Program Memory Program Counter OCD Instruction Register STATUS/ CONTROL Instruction Decode 32 x 8 General Purpose Registers ALU Multiplier/ DES DATA BUS Peripheral Module 1 Peripheral Module 2 SRAM EEPROM PMIC The AVR uses a Harvard architecture - with separate memories and buses for program and data. Instructions in the program memory are executed with a single level pipeline. While one instruction is being executed, the next instruction is pre-fetched from the program memory. 6 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 This concept enables instructions to be executed in every clock cycle. The program memory is In-System Re-programmable Flash memory. 6.3 Register File The fast-access Register File contains 32 x 8-bit general purpose working registers with a single clock cycle access time. This allows single-cycle Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) operation. In a typical ALU operation, two operands are output from the Register File, the operation is executed, and the result is stored back in the Register File - in one clock cycle. Six of the 32 registers can be used as three 16-bit indirect address register pointers for Data Space addressing - enabling efficient address calculations. One of these address pointers can also be used as an address pointer for look up tables in Flash program memory. 6.4 ALU - Arithmetic Logic Unit The high performance Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) supports arithmetic and logic operations between registers or between a constant and a register. Single register operations can also be executed. Within a single clock cycle, arithmetic operations between general purpose registers or between a register and an immediate are executed. After an arithmetic or logic operation, the Status Register is updated to reflect information about the result of the operation. The ALU operations are divided into three main categories - arithmetic, logical, and bit-functions. Both 8- and 16-bit arithmetic is supported, and the instruction set allows for easy implementation of 32-bit arithmetic. The ALU also provides a powerful multiplier supporting both signed and unsigned multiplication and fractional format. 6.5 Program Flow When the device is powered on, the CPU starts to execute instructions from the lowest address in the Flash Program Memory `0'. The Program Counter (PC) addresses the next instruction to be fetched. After a reset, the PC is set to location `0'. Program flow is provided by conditional and unconditional jump and call instructions, capable of addressing the whole address space directly. Most AVR instructions use a 16-bit word format, while a limited number uses a 32-bit format. During interrupts and subroutine calls, the return address PC is stored on the Stack. The Stack is effectively allocated in the general data SRAM, and consequently the Stack size is only limited by the total SRAM size and the usage of the SRAM. After reset the Stack Pointer (SP) points to the highest address in the internal SRAM. The SP is read/write accessible in the I/O memory space, enabling easy implementation of multiple stacks or stack areas. The data SRAM can easily be accessed through the five different addressing modes supported in the AVR CPU. 7 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 7.

In addition, the XMEGA A3 features an EEPROM Memory for non-volatile data storage. All three memory spaces are linear and require no paging. The available memory size configurations are shown in "Ordering Information" on page 2. In addition each device has a Flash memory signature row for calibration data, device identification, serial number etc. Non-volatile memory spaces can be locked for further write or read/write operations. This prevents unrestricted access to the application software. 8 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 7.3 In-System Programmable Flash Program Memory The XMEGA A3 devices contains On-chip In-System Programmable Flash memory for program storage, see Figure 7-1 on page 9. Since all AVR instructions are 16- or 32-bits wide, each Flash address location is 16 bits. The Program Flash memory space is divided into Application and Boot sections. Both sections have dedicated Lock Bits for setting restrictions on write or read/write operations. The Store Program Memory (SPM) instruction must reside in the Boot Section when used to write to the Flash memory. A third section inside the Application section is referred to as the Application Table section which has separate Lock bits for storage of write or read/write protection. The Application Table section can be used for storing non-volatile data or application software. Figure 7-1.

To simplify development, the memory map for all devices in the family is identical and with empty, reserved memory space for smaller devices. Figure 7-2.

All I/O memory locations can be accessed by the Load (LD/LDS/LDD) and Store (ST/STS/STD) instructions, transferring data between the 32 general purpose registers in the CPU and the I/O Memory. The IN and OUT instructions can address I/O memory locations in the range 0x00 - 0x3F directly. I/O registers within the address range 0x00 - 0x1F are directly bit-accessible using the SBI and CBI instructions. The value of single bits can be checked by using the SBIS and SBIC instructions on these registers. The I/O memory address for all peripherals and modules in XMEGA A3 is shown in the "Peripheral Module Address Map" on page 53. 7.4.2 SRAM Data Memory The XMEGA A3 devices have internal SRAM memory for data storage. 7.4.3 EEPROM Data Memory The XMEGA A3 devices have internal EEPROM memory for non-volatile data storage. It is addressable either in a separate data space or it can be memory mapped into the normal data memory space. The EEPROM memory supports both byte and page access. 11 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 7.5 Production Signature Row The Production Signature Row is a separate memory section for factory programmed data. It contains calibration data for functions such as oscillators and analog modules. The production signature row also contains a device ID that identify each microcontroller device type, and a serial number that is unique for each manufactured device. The device ID for the available XMEGA A3 devices is shown in Table 7-1 on page 12. The serial number consist of the production LOT number, wafer number, and wafer coordinates for the device. The production signature row can not be written or erased, but it can be read from both application software and external programming. Table 7-1. Device ID bytes for XMEGA A3 devices.

The user signature row is one flash page in size, and is meant for static user parameter storage, such as calibration data, custom serial numbers or identification numbers, random number seeds etc. This section is not erased by Chip Erase commands that erase the Flash, and requires a dedicated erase command. This ensures parameter storage during multiple program/erase session and on-chip debug sessions. 12 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 7.7 Flash and EEPROM Page Size The Flash Program Memory and EEPROM data memory are organized in pages. The pages are word accessible for the Flash and byte accessible for the EEPROM. Table 7-2 on page 13 shows the Flash Program Memory organization. Flash write and erase operations are performed on one page at the time, while reading the Flash is done one byte at the time. For Flash access the Z-pointer (Z[m:n]) is used for addressing. The most significant bits in the address (FPAGE) gives the page number and the least significant address bits (FWORD) gives the word in the page. Table 7-2.

DMAC - Direct Memory Access Controller 8.1 Features * Allows High-speed data transfer * * * * * 8.2 - From memory to peripheral - From memory to memory - From peripheral to memory - From peripheral to peripheral 4 Channels From 1 byte and up to 16 M bytes transfers in a single transaction Multiple addressing modes for source and destination address - Increment - Decrement - Static 1, 2, 4, or 8 bytes Burst Transfers Programmable priority between channels Overview The XMEGA A3 has a Direct Memory Access (DMA) Controller to move data between memories and peripherals in the data space. The DMA controller uses the same data bus as the CPU to transfer data. It has 4 channels that can be configured independently. Each DMA channel can perform data transfers in blocks of configurable size from 1 to 64K bytes. A repeat counter can be used to repeat each block transfer for single transactions up to 16M bytes. Each DMA channel can be configured to access the source and destination memory address with incrementing, decrementing or static addressing. The addressing is independent for source and destination address. When the transaction is complete the original source and destination address can automatically be reloaded to be ready for the next transaction. The DMAC can access all the peripherals through their I/O memory registers, and the DMA may be used for automatic transfer of data to/from communication modules, as well as automatic data retrieval from ADC conversions, data transfer to DAC conversions, or data transfer to or from port pins. A wide range of transfer triggers is available from the peripherals, Event System and software. Each DMA channel has different transfer triggers. To allow for continuous transfers, two channels can be interlinked so that the second takes over the transfer when the first is finished and vice versa. The DMA controller can read from memory mapped EEPROM, but it cannot write to the EEPROM or access the Flash. 14 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 9. Event System 9.1 Features * * * * * * * * 9.2 Inter-peripheral communication and signalling with minimum latency CPU and DMA independent operation 8 Event Channels allows for up to 8 signals to be routed at the same time Events can be generated by - Timer/Counters (TCxn) - Real Time Counter (RTC) - Analog to Digital Converters (ADCx) - Analog Comparators (ACx) - Ports (PORTx) - System Clock (ClkSYS) - Software (CPU) Events can be used by - Timer/Counters (TCxn) - Analog to Digital Converters (ADCx) - Digital to Analog Converters (DACx) - Ports (PORTx) - DMA Controller (DMAC) - IR Communication Module (IRCOM) The same event can be used by multiple peripherals for synchronized timing Advanced Features - Manual Event Generation from software (CPU) - Quadrature Decoding - Digital Filtering Functions in Active and Idle mode Overview The Event System is a set of features for inter-peripheral communication. It enables the possibility for a change of state in one peripheral to automatically trigger actions in one or more peripherals. What changes in a peripheral that will trigger actions in other peripherals are configurable by software. It is a simple, but powerful system as it allows for autonomous control of peripherals without any use of interrupts, CPU or DMA resources. The indication of a change in a peripheral is referred to as an event, and is usually the same as the interrupt conditions for that peripheral. Events are passed between peripherals using a dedicated routing network called the Event Routing Network. Figure 9-1 on page 16 shows a basic block diagram of the Event System with the Event Routing Network and the peripherals to which it is connected. This highly flexible system can be used for simple routing of signals, pin functions or for sequencing of events. The maximum latency is two CPU clock cycles from when an event is generated in one peripheral, until the actions are triggered in one or more other peripherals. The Event System is functional in both Active and Idle modes. 15 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 Figure 9-1. Event system block diagram. PORTx ClkSYS CPU ADCx RTC Event Routing Network DACx IRCOM ACx T/Cxn DMAC The Event Routing Network can directly connect together ADCs, DACs, Analog Comparators (ACx), I/O ports (PORTx), the Real-time Counter (RTC), Timer/Counters (T/C) and the IR Communication Module (IRCOM). Events can also be generated from software (CPU). All events from all peripherals are always routed into the Event Routing Network. This consist of eight multiplexers where each can be configured in software to select which event to be routed into that event channel. All eight event channels are connected to the peripherals that can use events, and each of these peripherals can be configured to use events from one or more event channels to automatically trigger a software selectable action. 16 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 10.

It incorporates both integrated oscillators, external crystal oscillators and resonators. A high frequency Phase Locked Loop (PLL) and clock prescalers can be controlled from software to generate a wide range of clock frequencies from the clock source input. It is possible to switch between clock sources from software during run-time. After reset the device will always start up running from the 2 Mhz internal oscillator. A calibration feature is available, and can be used for automatic run-time calibration of the internal 2 MHz and 32 MHz oscillators. This reduce frequency drift over voltage and temperature. A Crystal Oscillator Failure Monitor can be enabled to issue a Non-Maskable Interrupt and switch to internal oscillator if the external oscillator fails.

It can be used as system clock source or as asynchronous clock source for the Real Time Counter. 10.3.4 0.4 - 16 MHz Crystal Oscillator The 0.4 - 16 MHz Crystal Oscillator is a driver intended for driving both external resonators and crystals ranging from 400 kHz to 16 MHz. 10.3.5 2 MHz Run-time Calibrated Internal Oscillator The 2 MHz Run-time Calibrated Internal Oscillator is a high frequency oscillator. It is calibrated during production to provide a default frequency which is close to its nominal frequency. The oscillator can use the 32 kHz Calibrated Internal Oscillator or the 32 kHz Crystal Oscillator as a source for calibrating the frequency run-time to compensate for temperature and voltage drift hereby optimizing the accuracy of the oscillator. 10.3.6 32 MHz Run-time Calibrated Internal Oscillator The 32 MHz Run-time Calibrated Internal Oscillator is a high frequency oscillator. It is calibrated during production to provide a default frequency which is close to its nominal frequency. The oscillator can use the 32 kHz Calibrated Internal Oscillator or the 32 kHz Crystal Oscillator as a source for calibrating the frequency run-time to compensate for temperature and voltage drift hereby optimizing the accuracy of the oscillator. 10.3.7 External Clock input The external clock input gives the possibility to connect a clock from an external source. 10.3.8 PLL with Multiplication factor 1 - 31x The PLL provides the possibility of multiplying a frequency by any number from 1 to 31. In combination with the prescalers, this gives a wide range of output frequencies from all clock sources. 19 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 11. Power Management and Sleep Modes 11.1 Features * 5 sleep modes - Idle - Power-down - Power-save - Standby - Extended standby * Power Reduction registers to disable clocks to unused peripherals 11.2 Overview The XMEGA A3 provides various sleep modes tailored to reduce power consumption to a minimum. All sleep modes are available and can be entered from Active mode. In Active mode the CPU is executing application code. The application code decides when and which sleep mode to enter. Interrupts from enabled peripherals and all enabled reset sources can restore the microcontroller from sleep to Active mode. In addition, Power Reduction registers provide a method to stop the clock to individual peripherals from software. When this is done, the current state of the peripheral is frozen and there is no power consumption from that peripheral. This reduces the power consumption in Active mode and Idle sleep mode. 11.3 Sleep Modes 11.3.1 Idle Mode In Idle mode the CPU and Non-Volatile Memory are stopped, but all peripherals including the Interrupt Controller, Event System and DMA Controller are kept running. Interrupt requests from all enabled interrupts will wake the device. 11.3.2 Power-down Mode In Power-down mode all system clock sources, and the asynchronous Real Time Counter (RTC) clock source, are stopped. This allows operation of asynchronous modules only. The only interrupts that can wake up the MCU are the Two Wire Interface address match interrupts, and asynchronous port interrupts, e.g pin change. 11.3.3 Power-save Mode Power-save mode is identical to Power-down, with one exception: If the RTC is enabled, it will keep running during sleep and the device can also wake up from RTC interrupts. 11.3.4 Standby Mode Standby mode is identical to Power-down with the exception that all enabled system clock sources are kept running, while the CPU, Peripheral and RTC clocks are stopped. This reduces the wake-up time when external crystals or resonators are used. 20 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 11.3.5 Extended Standby Mode Extended Standby mode is identical to Power-save mode with the exception that all enabled system clock sources are kept running while the CPU and Peripheral clocks are stopped. This reduces the wake-up time when external crystals or resonators are used. 21 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 12. System Control and Reset 12.1 Features * Multiple reset sources for safe operation and device reset - Power-On Reset - External Reset - Watchdog Reset The Watchdog Timer runs from separate, dedicated oscillator - Brown-Out Reset Accurate, programmable Brown-Out levels - JTAG Reset - PDI reset - Software reset * Asynchronous reset - No running clock in the device is required for reset * Reset status register 12.2 Resetting the AVR During reset, all I/O registers are set to their initial values. The SRAM content is not reset. Application execution starts from the Reset Vector. The instruction placed at the Reset Vector should be an Absolute Jump (JMP) instruction to the reset handling routine. By default the Reset Vector address is the lowest Flash program memory address, `0', but it is possible to move the Reset Vector to the first address in the Boot Section. The I/O ports of the AVR are immediately tri-stated when a reset source goes active. The reset functionality is asynchronous, so no running clock is required to reset the device. After the device is reset, the reset source can be determined by the application by reading the Reset Status Register. 12.3 12.3.1 Reset Sources Power-On Reset The MCU is reset when the supply voltage VCC is below the Power-on Reset threshold voltage. 12.3.2 External Reset The MCU is reset when a low level is present on the RESET pin. 12.3.3 Watchdog Reset The MCU is reset when the Watchdog Timer period expires and the Watchdog Reset is enabled. The Watchdog Timer runs from a dedicated oscillator independent of the System Clock. For more details see "WDT - Watchdog Timer" on page 23. 12.3.4 Brown-Out Reset The MCU is reset when the supply voltage VCC is below the Brown-Out Reset threshold voltage and the Brown-out Detector is enabled. The Brown-out threshold voltage is programmable. 22 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 12.3.5 JTAG reset The MCU is reset as long as there is a logic one in the Reset Register in one of the scan chains of the JTAG system. Refer to IEEE 1149.1 (JTAG) Boundary-scan for details. 12.3.6 PDI reset The MCU can be reset through the Program and Debug Interface (PDI). 12.3.7 Software reset The MCU can be reset by the CPU writing to a special I/O register through a timed sequence. 12.4 12.4.1 WDT - Watchdog Timer Features * 11 selectable timeout periods, from 8 ms to 8s. * Two operation modes - Standard mode - Window mode * Runs from the 1 kHz output of the 32 kHz Ultra Low Power oscillator * Configuration lock to prevent unwanted changes 12.4.2 Overview The XMEGA A3 has a Watchdog Timer (WDT). The WDT will run continuously when turned on and if the Watchdog Timer is not reset within a software configurable time-out period, the microcontroller will be reset. The Watchdog Reset (WDR) instruction must be run by software to reset the WDT, and prevent microcontroller reset. The WDT has a Window mode. In this mode the WDR instruction must be run within a specified period called a window. Application software can set the minimum and maximum limits for this window. If the WDR instruction is not executed inside the window limits, the microcontroller will be reset. A protection mechanism using a timed write sequence is implemented in order to prevent unwanted enabling, disabling or change of WDT settings. For maximum safety, the WDT also has an Always-on mode. This mode is enabled by programming a fuse. In Always-on mode, application software can not disable the WDT. 23 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 13. PMIC - Programmable Multi-level Interrupt Controller 13.1 Features * Separate interrupt vector for each interrupt * Short, predictable interrupt response time * Programmable Multi-level Interrupt Controller - 3 programmable interrupt levels - Selectable priority scheme within low level interrupts (round-robin or fixed) - Non-Maskable Interrupts (NMI) * Interrupt vectors can be moved to the start of the Boot Section 13.2 Overview XMEGA A3 has a Programmable Multi-level Interrupt Controller (PMIC). All peripherals can define three different priority levels for interrupts; high, medium or low. Medium level interrupts may interrupt low level interrupt service routines. High level interrupts may interrupt both lowand medium level interrupt service routines. Low level interrupts have an optional round robin scheme to make sure all interrupts are serviced within a certain amount of time. The built in oscillator failure detection mechanism can issue a Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI). 13.3 Interrupt vectors When an interrupt is serviced, the program counter will jump to the interrupt vector address. The interrupt vector is the sum of the peripheral's base interrupt address and the offset address for specific interrupts in each peripheral. The base addresses for the XMEGA A3 devices are shown in Table 13-1. Offset addresses for each interrupt available in the peripheral are described for each peripheral in the XMEGA A manual. For peripherals or modules that have only one interrupt, the interrupt vector is shown in Table 13-1. The program address is the word address. Table 13-1.

I/O Ports 14.1 Features * Selectable input and output configuration for each pin individually * Flexible pin configuration through dedicated Pin Configuration Register * Synchronous and/or asynchronous input sensing with port interrupts and events * * * * * * * * * * 14.2 - Sense both edges - Sense rising edges - Sense falling edges - Sense low level Asynchronous wake-up from all input sensing configurations Two port interrupts with flexible pin masking Highly configurable output driver and pull settings: - Totem-pole - Pull-up/-down - Wired-AND - Wired-OR - Bus-keeper - Inverted I/O Optional Slew rate control Configuration of multiple pins in a single operation Read-Modify-Write (RMW) support Toggle/clear/set registers for Output and Direction registers Clock output on port pin Event Channel 7 output on port pin Mapping of port registers (virtual ports) into bit accessible I/O memory space Overview The XMEGA A3 devices have flexible General Purpose I/O Ports. A port consists of up to 8 pins, ranging from pin 0 to pin 7. The ports implement several functions, including synchronous/asynchronous input sensing, pin change interrupts and configurable output settings. All functions are individual per pin, but several pins may be configured in a single operation. 14.3 I/O configuration All port pins (Pn) have programmable output configuration. In addition, all port pins have an inverted I/O function. For an input, this means inverting the signal between the port pin and the pin register. For an output, this means inverting the output signal between the port register and the port pin. The inverted I/O function can be used also when the pin is used for alternate functions. The port pins also have configurable slew rate limitation to reduce electromagnetic emission. 26 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 14.3.1 Push-pull Figure 14-1.

All pins on the port can be individually selected as source for each of the interrupts. The interrupts are then triggered according to the input sense configuration for each pin configured as source for the interrupt. 14.6 Alternate Port Functions In addition to the input/output functions on all port pins, most pins have alternate functions. This means that other modules or peripherals connected to the port can use the port pins for their functions, such as communication or pulse-width modulation. "Pinout and Pin Functions" on page 48 shows which modules on peripherals that enable alternate functions on a pin, and which alternate functions that are available on a pin. 29 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 15. T/C - 16-bits Timer/Counter with PWM 15.1 Features * Seven 16-bit Timer/Counters * * * * * * * * * * * * 15.2 - Four Timer/Counters of type 0 - Three Timer/Counters of type 1 Four Compare or Capture (CC) Channels in Timer/Counter 0 Two Compare or Capture (CC) Channels in Timer/Counter 1 Double Buffered Timer Period Setting Double Buffered Compare or Capture Channels Waveform Generation: - Single Slope Pulse Width Modulation - Dual Slope Pulse Width Modulation - Frequency Generation Input Capture: - Input Capture with Noise Cancelling - Frequency capture - Pulse width capture - 32-bit input capture Event Counter with Direction Control Timer Overflow and Timer Error Interrupts and Events One Compare Match or Capture Interrupt and Event per CC Channel Supports DMA Operation Hi-Resolution Extension (Hi-Res) Advanced Waveform Extension (AWEX) Overview XMEGA A3 has seven Timer/Counters, four Timer/Counter 0 and three Timer/Counter 1. The difference between them is that Timer/Counter 0 has four Compare/Capture channels, while Timer/Counter 1 has two Compare/Capture channels. The Timer/Counters (T/C) are 16-bit and can count any clock, event or external input in the microcontroller. A programmable prescaler is available to get a useful T/C resolution. Updates of Timer and Compare registers are double buffered to ensure glitch free operation. Single slope PWM, dual slope PWM and frequency generation waveforms can be generated using the Compare Channels. Through the Event System, any input pin or event in the microcontroller can be used to trigger input capture, hence no dedicated pins is required for this. The input capture has a noise canceller to avoid incorrect capture of the T/C, and can be used to do frequency and pulse width measurements. A wide range of interrupt or event sources are available, including T/C Overflow, Compare match and Capture for each Compare/Capture channel in the T/C. PORTC, PORTD and PORTE each has one Timer/Counter 0 and one Timer/Counter1. PORTF has one Timer/Counter 0. Notation of these are TCC0 (Time/Counter C0), TCC1, TCD0, TCD1, TCE0, TCE1 and TCF0, respectively. 30 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 Figure 15-1.

This is available for all Timer/Counters. See "Hi-Res - High Resolution Extension" on page 33 for more details. The Advanced Waveform Extension can be enabled to provide extra and more advanced features for the Timer/Counter. This are only available for Timer/Counter 0. See "AWEX - Advanced Waveform Extension" on page 32 for more details. 31 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 16. AWEX - Advanced Waveform Extension 16.1 Features * * * * * * * * 16.2 Output with complementary output from each Capture channel Four Dead Time Insertion (DTI) Units, one for each Capture channel 8-bit DTI Resolution Separate High and Low Side Dead-Time Setting Double Buffered Dead-Time Event Controlled Fault Protection Single Channel Multiple Output Operation (for BLDC motor control) Double Buffered Pattern Generation Overview The Advanced Waveform Extension (AWEX) provides extra features to the Timer/Counter in Waveform Generation (WG) modes. The AWEX enables easy and safe implementation of for example, advanced motor control (AC, BLDC, SR, and Stepper) and power control applications. Any WG output from a Timer/Counter 0 is split into a complimentary pair of outputs when any AWEX feature is enabled. These output pairs go through a Dead-Time Insertion (DTI) unit that enables generation of the non-inverted Low Side (LS) and inverted High Side (HS) of the WG output with dead time insertion between LS and HS switching. The DTI output will override the normal port value according to the port override setting. Optionally the final output can be inverted by using the invert I/O setting for the port pin. The Pattern Generation unit can be used to generate a synchronized bit pattern on the port it is connected to. In addition, the waveform generator output from Compare Channel A can be distributed to, and override all port pins. When the Pattern Generator unit is enabled, the DTI unit is bypassed. The Fault Protection unit is connected to the Event System. This enables any event to trigger a fault condition that will disable the AWEX output. Several event channels can be used to trigger fault on several different conditions. The AWEX is available for TCC0. The notation of this is AWEXC. 32 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 17. Hi-Res - High Resolution Extension 17.1 Features * Increases Waveform Generator resolution by 2-bits (4x) * Supports Frequency, single- and dual-slope PWM operation * Supports the AWEX when this is enabled and used for the same Timer/Counter 17.2 Overview The Hi-Resolution (Hi-Res) Extension is able to increase the resolution of the waveform generation output by a factor of 4. When enabled for a Timer/Counter, the Fast Peripheral clock running at four times the CPU clock speed will be as input to the Timer/Counter. The High Resolution Extension can also be used when an AWEX is enabled and used with a Timer/Counter. XMEGA A3 devices have four Hi-Res Extensions that each can be enabled for each Timer/Counters pair on PORTC, PORTD, PORTE and PORTF. The notation of these are HIRESC, HIRESD, HIRESE and HIRESF, respectively. 33 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 18.

The RTC can be clocked from an accurate 32.768 kHz Crystal Oscillator, the 32.768 kHz Calibrated Internal Oscillator, or from the 32 kHz Ultra Low Power Internal Oscillator. The RTC includes both a Period and a Compare register. For details, see Figure 18-1. A wide range of Resolution and Time-out periods can be configured using the RTC. With a maximum resolution of 30.5 s, time-out periods range up to 2000 seconds. With a resolution of 1 second, the maximum time-out period is over 18 hours (65536 seconds). Figure 18-1.

The protocol makes it possible to interconnect up to 128 individually addressable devices. Since it is a multi-master bus, one or more devices capable of taking control of the bus can be connected. The only external hardware needed to implement the bus is a single pull-up resistor for each of the TWI bus lines. Mechanisms for resolving bus contention are inherent in the TWI protocol. PORTC and PORTE each has one TWI. Notation of these peripherals are TWIC and TWIE. 35 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 20.

Devices can communicate using a master-slave scheme, and data is transferred both to and from the devices simultaneously. PORTC, PORTD, and PORTE each has one SPI. Notation of these peripherals are SPIC, SPID, and SPIE respectively. 36 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 21.

The USART supports full duplex communication, and both asynchronous and clocked synchronous operation. The USART can also be set in Master SPI mode to be used for SPI communication. Communication is frame based, and the frame format can be customized to support a wide range of standards. The USART is buffered in both direction, enabling continued data transmission without any delay between frames. There are separate interrupt vectors for receive and transmit complete, enabling fully interrupt driven communication. Frame error and buffer overflow are detected in hardware and indicated with separate status flags. Even or odd parity generation and parity check can also be enabled. One USART can use the IRCOM module to support IrDA 1.4 physical compliant pulse modulation and demodulation for baud rates up to 115.2 kbps. PORTC, PORTD, and PORTE each has two USARTs, while PORTF has one USART only. Notation of these peripherals are USARTC0, USARTC1, USARTD0, USARTD1, USARTE0, USARTE1 and USARTF0, respectively. 37 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 22.

This supports three modulation schemes: 3/16 of baud rate period, fixed programmable pulse time based on the Peripheral Clock speed, or pulse modulation disabled. There is one IRCOM available which can be connected to any USART to enable infrared pulse coding/decoding for that USART. 38 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 23. Crypto Engine 23.1 Features * Data Encryption Standard (DES) CPU instruction * Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Crypto module * DES Instruction - Encryption and Decryption - Single-cycle DES instruction - Encryption/Decryption in 16 clock cycles per 8-byte block * AES Crypto Module - Encryption and Decryption - Support 128-bit keys - Support XOR data load mode to the State memory for Cipher Block Chaining - Encryption/Decryption in 375 clock cycles per 16-byte block 23.2 Overview The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and Data Encryption Standard (DES) are two commonly used encryption standards. These are supported through an AES peripheral module and a DES CPU instruction. All communication interfaces and the CPU can optionally use AES and DES encrypted communication and data storage. DES is supported by a DES instruction in the AVR XMEGA CPU. The 8-byte key and 8-byte data blocks must be loaded into the Register file, and then DES must be executed 16 times to encrypt/decrypt the data block. The AES Crypto Module encrypts and decrypts 128-bit data blocks with the use of a 128-bit key. The key and data must be loaded into the key and state memory in the module before encryption/decryption is started. It takes 375 peripheral clock cycles before the encryption/decryption is done and decrypted/encrypted data can be read out, and an optional interrupt can be generated. The AES Crypto Module also has DMA support with transfer triggers when encryption/decryption is done and optional auto-start of encryption/decryption when the state memory is fully loaded. 39 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 24. ADC - 12-bit Analog to Digital Converter 24.1 Features * * * * * * * * * * * * * 24.2 Two ADCs with 12-bit resolution 2 Msps sample rate for each ADC Signed and Unsigned conversions 4 result registers with individual input channel control for each ADC 8 single ended inputs for each ADC 8x4 differential inputs for each ADC 4 internal inputs: - Integrated Temperature Sensor - DAC Output - VCC voltage divided by 10 - Bandgap voltage Software selectable gain of 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 or 64 Software selectable resolution of 8- or 12-bit. Internal or External Reference selection Event triggered conversion for accurate timing DMA transfer of conversion results Interrupt/Event on compare result Overview XMEGA A3 devices have two Analog to Digital Converters (ADC), see Figure 24-1 on page 41. The two ADC modules can be operated simultaneously, individually or synchronized. The ADC converts analog voltages to digital values. The ADC has 12-bit resolution and is capable of converting up to 2 million samples per second. The input selection is flexible, and both single-ended and differential measurements can be done. For differential measurements an optional gain stage is available to increase the dynamic range. In addition several internal signal inputs are available. The ADC can provide both signed and unsigned results. This is a pipeline ADC. A pipeline ADC consists of several consecutive stages, where each stage convert one part of the result. The pipeline design enables high sample rate at low clock speeds, and remove limitations on samples speed versus propagation delay. This also means that a new analog voltage can be sampled and a new ADC measurement started while other ADC measurements are ongoing. ADC measurements can either be started by application software or an incoming event from another peripheral in the device. Four different result registers with individual input selection (MUX selection) are provided to make it easier for the application to keep track of the data. Each result register and MUX selection pair is referred to as an ADC Channel. It is possible to use DMA to move ADC results directly to memory or peripherals when conversions are done. Both internal and external analog reference voltages can be used. An accurate internal 1.0V reference is available. An integrated temperature sensor is available and the output from this can be measured with the ADC. The output from the DAC, VCC/10 and the Bandgap voltage can also be measured by the ADC. 40 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 Figure 24-1. ADC overview Channel A MUX selection Channel D MUX selection Configuration Reference selection Pin inputs Channel A Register Channel B Register Pin inputs Internal inputs Channel B MUX selection Channel C MUX selection ADC Channel C Register 1-64 X Event Trigger Channel D Register Each ADC has four MUX selection registers with a corresponding result register. This means that four channels can be sampled within 1.5 s without any intervention by the application other than starting the conversion. The results will be available in the result registers. The ADC may be configured for 8- or 12-bit result, reducing the minimum conversion time (propagation delay) from 3.5 s for 12-bit to 2.5 s for 8-bit result. ADC conversion results are provided left- or right adjusted with optional `1' or `0' padding. This eases calculation when the result is represented as a signed integer (signed 16-bit number). PORTA and PORTB each has one ADC. Notation of these peripherals are ADCA and ADCB, respectively. 41 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 25. DAC - 12-bit Digital to Analog Converter 25.1 Features * * * * * * * * 25.2 One DAC with 12-bit resolution Up to 1 Msps conversion rate for each DAC Flexible conversion range Multiple trigger sources 1 continuous output or 2 Sample and Hold (S/H) outputs for each DAC Built-in offset and gain calibration High drive capabilities Low Power Mode Overview The XMEGA A3 features two 12-bit, 1 Msps DACs with built-in offset and gain calibration, see Figure 25-1 on page 42. A DAC converts a digital value into an analog signal. The DAC may use an internal 1.1 voltage as the upper limit for conversion, but it is also possible to use the supply voltage or any applied voltage in-between. The external reference input is shared with the ADC reference input. Figure 25-1. DAC overview Configuration Reference selection Channel A Register Channel A DAC Channel B Channel B Register Event Trigger Each DAC has one continuous output with high drive capabilities for both resistive and capacitive loads. It is also possible to split the continuous time channel into two Sample and Hold (S/H) channels, each with separate data conversion registers. A DAC conversion may be started from the application software by writing the data conversion registers. The DAC can also be configured to do conversions triggered by the Event System to have regular timing, independent of the application software. DMA may be used for transferring data from memory locations to DAC data registers. The DAC has a built-in calibration system to reduce offset and gain error when loading with a calibration value from software. PORTB each has one DAC. Notation of this peripheral is DACB. 42 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 26. AC - Analog Comparator 26.1 Features * Four Analog Comparators * Selectable Power vs. Speed * Selectable hysteresis - 0, 20 mV, 50 mV * Analog Comparator output available on pin * Flexible Input Selection - All pins on the port - Output from the DAC - Bandgap reference voltage. - Voltage scaler that can perform a 64-level scaling of the internal VCC voltage. * Interrupt and event generation on - Rising edge - Falling edge - Toggle * Window function interrupt and event generation on - Signal above window - Signal inside window - Signal below window 26.2 Overview XMEGA A3 features four Analog Comparators (AC). An Analog Comparator compares two voltages, and the output indicates which input is largest. The Analog Comparator may be configured to give interrupt requests and/or events upon several different combinations of input change. Both hysteresis and propagation delays may be adjusted in order to find the optimal operation for each application. A wide range of input selection is available, both external pins and several internal signals can be used. The Analog Comparators are always grouped in pairs (AC0 and AC1) on each analog port. They have identical behavior but separate control registers. Optionally, the state of the comparator is directly available on a pin. PORTA and PORTB each has one AC pair. Notations are ACA and ACB, respectively. 43 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 Figure 26-1.

B * * * * * * * Bandgap voltage input for the ACs cannot be changed when used for both ACs simultaneously DAC is nonlinear and inaccurate if the external reference is above 2.4V or VCC - 0.6V ADC gain stage output range is limited to 2.4V Sampled BOD in Active mode will cause noise when bandgap is used as reference Bandgap measurement with the ADC is non-functional when VCC is below 2.7V BOD will be enabled after any reset Writing EEPROM or Flash while reading any of them will not work 1. Bandgap voltage input for the ACs cannot be changed when used for both ACs simultaneously If the bandgap voltage is selected as input for one Analog Comparator (AC) and then selected/deselected as input for the another AC, the first comparator will be affected for up to 1 us and could potentially give a wrong comparison result. Problem fix/Workaround If the Bandgap is required for both ACs simultaneously, configure the input selection for both ACs before enabling any of them. 2. DAC is nonlinear and inaccurate if the external reference is above 2.4V or Vcc-0.6V Using the DAC with a reference voltage above 2.4V or Vcc-0.6V give inaccurate output in the top 25% of the output range: - 30 LSB for continuous mode - 200 LSB for Sample and Hold mode Problem fix/Workaround None, avoid using a voltage reference above 2.4V or Vcc-0.6V. 3. ADC gain stage output range is limited to 2.4 V The amplified output of the ADC gain stage will never go above 2.4 V, hence the differential input will only give correct output when below 2.4 V/gain. For the available gain settings, this gives a differential input range of: - 1x gain: 2.4 V - 2x gain: 1.2 V - 4x gain: 0.6 V - 8x gain: 300 mV - 16x gain: 150 mV - 32x gain: 75 mV - 64x gain: 38 mV 65 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 Problem fix/Workaround Keep the amplified voltage output from the ADC gain stage below 2.4 V in order to get a correct result, or keep ADC voltage reference below 2.4 V. 4. Sampled BOD in Active mode will cause noise when bandgap is used as reference Using the BOD in sampled mode when the device is running in Active or Idle mode will add noise on the bandgap reference for ADC, DAC and Analog Comparator. Problem fix/Workaround If the bandgap is used as reference for either the ADC, DAC and Analog Comparator, the BOD must not be set in sampled mode. 5. Bandgap measurement with the ADC is non-functional when VCC is below 2.7V The ADC cannot be used to do bandgap measurements when VCC is below 2.7V. Problem fix/Workaround If internal voltages must be measured when VCC is below 2.7V, measure the internal 1.00V reference instead of the bandgap. 6. BOD will be enabled after any reset If any reset source goes active, the BOD will be enabled and keep the device in reset if the VCC voltage is below the programmed BOD level. During Power-On Reset, reset will not be released until VCC is above the programmed BOD level even if the BOD is disabled. Problem fix/Workaround Do not set the BOD level higher than VCC even if the BOD is not used. 7. Writing EEPROM or Flash while reading any of them will not work The EEPROM and Flash cannot be written while reading EEPROM or Flash, or while executing code in Active mode. Problem fix/Workaround Enter IDLE sleep mode within 2.5 uS (Five 2 MHz clock cycles and 80 32 MHz clock cycles) after starting an EEPROM or flash write operation. Wake-up source must either be EEPROM ready or NVM ready interrupt. Alternatively set up a Timer/Counter to give an overflow interrupt 5 mS after the erase or write operation has started, or 9 mS after atomic erase-and-write operation has started, and then enter IDLE sleep mode. 66 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 35.1.2 rev. A * * * * * * * * * * * Bandgap voltage input for the ACs cannot be changed when used for both ACs simultaneously DAC is nonlinear and inaccurate if the external reference is above 2.4V or VCC - 0.6V ADC gain stage output range is limited to 2.4V Sampled BOD in Active mode will cause noise when bandgap is used as reference Flash Power Reduction Mode can not be enabled when entering sleep mode JTAG enable does not override Analog Comparator B output Bandgap measurement with the ADC is non-functional when VCC is below 2.7V DAC refresh may be blocked in S/H mode BOD will be enabled after any reset Both DFLLs and both oscillators has to be enabled for one to work Operating frequnecy and voltage limitations 1. Bandgap voltage input for the ACs cannot be changed when used for both ACs simultaneously If the bandgap voltage is selected as input for one Analog Comparator (AC) and then selected/deselected as input for the another AC, the first comparator will be affected for up to 1 us and could potentially give a wrong comparison result. Problem fix/Workaround If the Bandgap is required for both ACs simultaneously, configure the input selection for both ACs before enabling any of them. 2.

Sampled BOD in Active mode will cause noise when bandgap is used as reference Using the BOD in sampled mode when the device is running in Active or Idle mode will add noise on the bandgap reference for ADC, DAC and Analog Comparator. Problem fix/Workaround If the bandgap is used as reference for either the ADC, DAC and Analog Comparator, the BOD must not be set in sampled mode. 5. Flash Power Reduction Mode can not be enabled when entering sleep mode If Flash Power Reduction Mode is enabled when a deep sleep mode, the device will only wake up on every fourth wake-up request. If Flash Power Reduction Mode is enabled when entering Idle sleep mode, the wake-up time will vary with up to 16 CPU clock cycles. Problem fix/Workaround Disable Flash Power Reduction mode before entering sleep mode. 6. JTAG enable does not override Analog Comparator B output When JTAG is enabled this will not override the Anlog Comparator B (ACB)ouput, AC0OUT on pin 7 if this is enabled. Problem fix/Workaround AC0OUT for ACB should not be enabled when JTAG is used. Use only analog comparator output for ACA when JTAG is used, or use the PDI as debug interface. 7. Bandgap measurement with the ADC is non-functional when VCC is below 2.7V The ADC cannot be used to do bandgap measurements when VCC is below 2.7V. Problem fix/Workaround If internal voltages must be measured when VCC is below 2.7V, measure the internal 1.00V reference instead of the bandgap. 8. DAC refresh may be blocked in S/H mode If the DAC is running in Sample and Hold (S/H) mode and conversion for one channel is done at maximum rate (i.e. the DAC is always busy doing conversion for this channel), this will block refresh signals to the second channel. Problem fix/Workarund When using the DAC in S/H mode, ensure that none of the channels is running at maximum conversion rate, or ensure that the conversion rate of both channels is high enough to not require refresh. 9 BOD will be enabled after any reset If any reset source goes active, the BOD will be enabled and keep the device in reset if the VCC voltage is below the programmed BOD level. During Power-On Reset, reset will not be released until VCC is above the programmed BOD level even if the BOD is disabled. 68 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 Problem fix/Workaround Do not set the BOD level higher than VCC even if the BOD is not used. 10 Both DFLLs and both oscillators has to be enabled for one to work In order to use the automatic runtime calibration for the 2 MHz or the 32MHz internal oscillators, the DFLL for both oscillators and both oscillators has to be enabled for one to work. Problem fix/Workaround Enabled both the DFLLs and both oscillators when using automtics runtime calibartion for one of the internal oscillators. 11 Operating Frequancy and Voltage Limitation To ensure correct operation, there is a limit on operating frequnecy and voltage. Figure 35-1 on page 69 shows the safe operating area. Figure 35-1. Operating Frequnecy and Voltage Limitation MHz 30 15 Safe operating area 2.4 3.6 V Problem fix/Workaround None, avoid using the device outside these frequnecy and voltage limitations. 69 8068K-AVR-02/09 XMEGA A3 36.
