ATmega16M1/32M1/64M1 [DATASHEET]
8209E–AVR–11/2012
To program and verify the ATmega16M1/32M1/64M1 in the serial programming mode, the following sequence is
1.
Power-up sequence:
Apply power between V
CC and GND while RESET and SCK are set to “0”. In some systems, the program-
mer can not guarantee that SCK is held low during power-up. In this case, RESET must be given a
positive pulse of at least two CPU clock cycles duration after SCK has been set to “0”.
2.
Wait for at least 20ms and enable serial programming by sending the Programming Enable serial instruc-
tion to pin MOSI.
3.
The serial programming instructions will not work if the communication is out of synchronization. When in
sync. the second byte (0x53), will echo back when issuing the third byte of the Programming Enable
instruction. Whether the echo is correct or not, all four bytes of the instruction must be transmitted. If the
0x53 did not echo back, give RESET a positive pulse and issue a new Programming Enable command.
4.
The Flash is programmed one page at a time. The memory page is loaded one byte at a time by supplying
the 6LSB of the address and data together with the Load Program Memory Page instruction. To ensure
correct loading of the page, the data low byte must be loaded before data high byte is applied for a given
address. The Program Memory Page is stored by loading the Write Program Memory Page instruction
with the 8MSB of the address. If polling is not used, the user must wait at least t
WD_FLASH before issuing
Flash write operation completes can result in incorrect programming.
5.
The EEPROM array is programmed one byte at a time by supplying the address and data together with
the appropriate Write instruction. An EEPROM memory location is first automatically erased before new
data is written. If polling is not used, the user must wait at least t
WD_EEPROM before issuing the next byte
programmed.
6.
Any memory location can be verified by using the Read instruction which returns the content at the
selected address at serial output MISO.
7.
At the end of the programming session, RESET can be set high to commence normal operation.
8.
Power-off sequence (if needed):
Set RESET to “1”
Turn V
CC power off

Data polling flash
When a page is being programmed into the Flash, reading an address location within the page being programmed
will give the value 0xFF. At the time the device is ready for a new page, the programmed value will read correctly.
This is used to determine when the next page can be written. Note that the entire page is written simultaneously
and any address within the page can be used for polling. Data polling of the Flash will not work for the value 0xFF,
so when programming this value, the user will have to wait for at least t
WD_FLASH before programming the next
page. As a chip-erased device contains 0xFF in all locations, programming of addresses that are meant to contain
WD_FLASH value.
27.10.3
Data polling EEPROM
When a new byte has been written and is being programmed into EEPROM, reading the address location being
programmed will give the value 0xFF. At the time the device is ready for a new byte, the programmed value will
read correctly. This is used to determine when the next byte can be written. This will not work for the value 0xFF,
but the user should have the following in mind: As a chip-erased device contains 0xFF in all locations, program-
ming of addresses that are meant to contain 0xFF, can be skipped. This does not apply if the EEPROM is re-
