General Purpose
PDF Software Description
AVR138: ATmega32M1 family PSC Cookbook (17 pages, revision A, updated 3/08)
This application note is an introduction to the use of the Power Stage Controller (PSC) available in ATmega32M1 family. The object of this document is to give a general overview of the PSC, show its various modes of operation and explain how to configure them.
 
AVR140: ATmega48/88/168 family run-time calibration of the Internal RC oscillator (12 pages, revision A, updated 09/06)
This application note describes how to calibrate the internal RC oscillator via the UART. The method used is based on the calibration method used in the Local Inteconnect Network (LIN) protocol, synchronizing a slave node to a master node at the beginning of every message frame.
AVR322: LIN Protocol Implementation on Atmel AVR Microcontrollers (21 pages, revision A, updated 12/05)
The LIN protocol is introduced in this application note, along with its implementation on Atmel Automotive AVR microcontrollers.
AVR480: Anti-Pinch System for Electrical Window (19 pages, revision B, updated 12/06)
This application note provides an example of how to create an anti-pinch system for electrical windows. Based on Speed and Current parameters measured out of the window DC motor, it benefits from the internal digital and analog resources of the AVR ATmegax8 family to support the FMVSS118 and 20/64/ECC standards.
