ATMEGA48PV-10AU MCU, ATMega AVR RISC, 4 KB, 10 MHz, TQFP-32

The ATmega48P/88P/168P is a low-power CMOS 8-bit microcontroller based on the AVR enhanced RISC architecture. By executing powerful instructions in a single clock cycle, the ATmega48P/88P/168P achieves throughputs approaching 1 MIPS per MHz allowing the system designer to optimize power consum ption versus processing speed. The AVR core 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 achiev ing throughputs up to ten times faster than con- ventional CISC microcontrollers.
