ATMEGA8535-16PC
ATMEGA8535-16PC - 8-bit AVR MCU 8KB 16MHz 40-DIP | Microchip
The Microchip Technology ATMEGA8535-16PC is a low-power 8-bit AVR RISC microcontroller with 8 KB In-System Programmable Flash, 512 B EEPROM, 512 B SRAM, and an 8-channel 10-bit ADC, delivered in a 40-pin PDIP package rated for 16 MHz operation and up to 16 MIPS throughput at 4.5 V to 5.5 V.
An 8-bit microcontroller is a single-chip computer that integrates a processor core, program memory, data memory, and peripherals such as timers, serial interfaces, and analog-to-digital converters. Within the power-management hierarchy of embedded systems, the MCU sits at the top as the system controller: it supervises power sequencing, sensor acquisition, and communication, making AVR-class MCUs a staple of industrial control, instrumentation, and education platforms.
Key features of the ATMEGA8535-16PC include the AVR enhanced RISC architecture with 130 powerful instructions, most executing in a single clock cycle; 32 general-purpose working registers fully connected to the ALU; and three flexible Timer/Counters with compare modes and PWM outputs. The 8-channel 10-bit ADC, a byte-oriented Two-wire Serial Interface (TWI/I2C), a programmable serial USART, and an SPI interface round out the peripheral set, enabling compact single-chip designs with both analog sensing and multi-protocol communication.
Technically, the device is fully static, allowing operation down to DC clock rates for ultra-low-power designs, and includes internal and external interrupt sources, a programmable watchdog timer with an internal oscillator, and In-System Programming (ISP) via the SPI port for field updates without removing the chip. Idle, ADC Noise Reduction, Power-save, Power-down, and Standby sleep modes let designers trade responsiveness against current consumption.
Typical applications include industrial automation controllers, motor control and PWM actuation, sensor-based instrumentation using the 10-bit ADC, and hobby or educational embedded platforms supported by the MightyCore Arduino hardware package. The through-hole 40-DIP package makes the part ideal for prototyping on breadboards and for legacy equipment service.
A key design consideration is the 4.5 V to 5.5 V operating window: unlike its 2.7 V-capable ATmega8535L siblings, the -16PC speed grade requires a 5 V supply to reach 16 MHz, so level shifting is needed for 3.3 V peripherals.
