Notes:
1. These options should only be used when not operating close to the maximum frequency of the device, and only if
frequency stability at start-up is not important for the application. These options are not suitable for crystals.
2. These options are intended for use with ceramic resonators and will ensure frequency stability at start-up. They can
also be used with crystals when not operating close to the maximum frequency of the device, and if frequency sta-
bility at start-up is not important for the application.

Calibrated Internal RC Oscillator
By default, the Internal RC OScillator provides an approximate 8.0 MHz clock. Though voltage and temperature
dependent, this clock can be very accurately calibrated by the user. The device is shipped with the CKDIV8 Fuse
This clock may be selected as the system clock by programming the CKSEL Fuses as shown in
Table 6-5. If
selected, it will operate with no external components. During reset, hardware loads the pre-programmed calibration
value into the OSCCAL Register and thereby automatically calibrates the RC Oscillator. The accuracy of this cali-
sible to get a higher calibration accuracy than by using the factory calibration. The accuracy of this calibration is
When this Oscillator is used as the chip clock, the Watchdog Oscillator will still be used for the Watchdog Timer
and for the Reset Time-out. For more information on the pre-programmed calibration value, see the section
Table 6-4.
