Port B (PB[3:0]) This is a 4-bit, bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-up resistors, individually selectable for each bit. The output buffers have symmetrical drive characteristics, with both high sink and source capability. As inputs, the port pins that are externally pulled low will source current if pull-up resistors are activated. Port pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if the clock is not running. 1.1.4. RESET Reset input. A low level on this pin for longer than the minimum pulse length will generate a reset, even if the clock is not running and provided the reset pin has not been disabled. The minimum pulse length is given in System and Reset Characteristics of Electrical Characteristics. Shorter pulses are not guaranteed to generate a reset. The reset pin can also be used as a (weak) I/O pin.

PB[3:0] Description The AVR core combines a rich instruction set with 16 general purpose working registers and system registers. All 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 compact and code efficient while achieving throughputs up to ten times faster than conventional CISC microcontrollers. This device provides the following features: 512/1024 byte of In-System Programmable Flash, 32 bytes of SRAM, four general purpose I/O lines, 16 general purpose working registers, a 16-bit timer/counter with two PWM channels, internal and external interrupts, a programmable watchdog timer with internal oscillator, an internal calibrated oscillator, and four software selectable power saving modes. ATtiny5/10 are also equipped with a four-channel and 8-bit Analog to Digital Converter (ADC). Idle mode stops the CPU while allowing the SRAM, timer/counter, ADC (ATtiny5/10, only), analog comparator, and interrupt system to continue functioning. ADC Noise Reduction mode minimizes switching noise during ADC conversions by stopping the CPU and all I/O modules except the ADC. In Power-down mode registers keep their contents and all chip functions are disabled until the next interrupt Atmel ATtiny4 / ATtiny5 / ATtiny9 / ATtiny10 [DATASHEET] Atmel-8127G-ATiny4/ ATiny5/ ATiny9/ ATiny10_Datasheet_Complete-09/2015 12 or hardware reset. In Standby mode, the oscillator is running while the rest of the device is sleeping, allowing very fast start-up combined with low power consumption. The device is manufactured using Atmel's high density Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) technology. The onchip, in-system programmable Flash allows program memory to be re-programmed in-system by a conventional, non-volatile memory programmer. The ATtiny4/5/9/10AVR are supported by a suite of program and system development tools, including macro assemblers and evaluation kits. 3.2.

General Information 4.1. Resources A comprehensive set of development tools, application notes and datasheets are available for download on http://www.atmel.com/avr. 4.2. Data Retention Reliability Qualification results show that the projected data retention failure rate is much less than 1 PPM over 20 years at 85C or 100 years at 25C. 4.3. About Code Examples This documentation contains simple code examples that briefly show how to use various parts of the device. These code examples assume that the part specific header file is included before compilation. Be aware that not all C compiler vendors include bit definitions in the header files and interrupt handling in C is compiler dependent. Confirm with the C compiler documentation for more details. 4.4. Capacitive Touch Sensing 4.4.1. QTouch Library (R) (R) The Atmel QTouch Library provides a simple to use solution to realize touch sensitive interfaces on (R) most Atmel AVR microcontrollers. The QTouch Library includes support for the Atmel QTouch and Atmel (R) QMatrix acquisition methods. Touch sensing can be added to any application by linking the appropriate Atmel QTouch Library for the AVR Microcontroller. This is done by using a simple set of APIs to define the touch channels and sensors, and then calling the touch sensing API's to retrieve the channel information and determine the touch sensor states. The QTouch Library is FREE and downloadable from the Atmel website at the following location: http:// www.atmel.com/technologies/touch/. For implementation details and other information, refer to the Atmel QTouch Library User Guide - also available for download from the Atmel website.

Overview This section discusses the AVR core architecture in general. The main function of the CPU core is to ensure correct program execution. The CPU must therefore be able to access memories, perform calculations, control peripherals, and handle interrupts. Figure 5-1 Block Diagram of the AVR Architecture Da ta Bus 8-bit Flas h Program Me mory S tatus a nd Control Program Counte r 16 x 8 Ge ne ra l Purpos e Re gis tre rs Instruction Re gis te r Indire ct Addre s s ing Control Line s Dire ct Addre s s ing Instruction De code r Inte rrupt Unit Wa tchdog Time r ALU Analog Compa rator ADC Da ta S RAM Time r/Counte r 0 I/O Line s In order to maximize performance and parallelism, the AVR uses a Harvard architecture - with separate memories and buses for program and data. Instructions in the program memory are executed with a single level pipelining. While one instruction is being executed, the next instruction is pre-fetched from the program memory. This concept enables instructions to be executed in every clock cycle. The program memory is In-System Reprogrammable Flash memory. The fast-access Register File contains 16 x 8-bit general purpose working registers with a single clock cycle access time. This allows single-cycle Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) operation. In a typical ALU operation, two operands are output from the Register File, the operation is executed, and the result is stored back in the Register File - in one clock cycle. Six of the 16 registers can be used as three 16-bit indirect address register pointers for Data Space addressing - enabling efficient address calculations. One of the these address pointers can also be used Atmel ATtiny4 / ATtiny5 / ATtiny9 / ATtiny10 [DATASHEET] Atmel-8127G-ATiny4/ ATiny5/ ATiny9/ ATiny10_Datasheet_Complete-09/2015 15 as an address pointer for look up tables in Flash program memory. These added function registers are the 16-bit X-, Y-, and Z-register, described later in this section. The ALU supports arithmetic and logic operations between registers or between a constant and a register. Single register operations can also be executed in the ALU. After an arithmetic operation, the Status Register is updated to reflect information about the result of the operation. Program flow is provided by conditional and unconditional jump and call instructions, able to directly address the whole address space. Most AVR instructions have a single 16-bit word format but 32-bit wide instructions also exist. The actual instruction set varies, as some devices only implement a part of the instruction set. During interrupts and subroutine calls, the return address Program Counter (PC) is stored on the Stack. The Stack is effectively allocated in the general data SRAM, and consequently the Stack size is only limited by the total SRAM size and the usage of the SRAM. All user programs must initialize the SP in the Reset routine (before subroutines or interrupts are executed). The Stack Pointer (SP) is read/write accessible in the I/O space. The data SRAM can easily be accessed through the four different addressing modes supported in the AVR architecture. The memory spaces in the AVR architecture are all linear and regular memory maps. A flexible interrupt module has its control registers in the I/O space with an additional Global Interrupt Enable bit in the Status Register. All interrupts have a separate Interrupt Vector in the Interrupt Vector table. The interrupts have priority in accordance with their Interrupt Vector position. The lower the Interrupt Vector address, the higher the priority. The I/O memory space contains 64 addresses for CPU peripheral functions as Control Registers, SPI, and other I/O functions. The I/O memory can be accessed as the data space locations, 0x0000 - 0x003F. 5.2. ALU - Arithmetic Logic Unit The high-performance AVR ALU operates in direct connection with all the 16 general purpose working registers. Within a single clock cycle, arithmetic operations between general purpose registers or between a register and an immediate are executed. The ALU operations are divided into three main categories - arithmetic, logical, and bit-functions. Some implementations of the architecture also provide a powerful multiplier supporting both signed/unsigned multiplication and fractional format. See Instruction Set Summary section for a detailed description. Related Links Instruction Set Summary on page 198 5.3. Status Register The Status Register contains information about the result of the most recently executed arithmetic instruction. This information can be used for altering program flow in order to perform conditional operations. The Status Register is updated after all ALU operations, as specified in the Instruction Set Reference. This will in many cases remove the need for using the dedicated compare instructions, resulting in faster and more compact code. The Status Register is not automatically stored when entering an interrupt routine and restored when returning from an interrupt. This must be handled by software.

General Purpose Register File The Register File is optimized for the AVR Enhanced RISC instruction set. In order to achieve the required performance and flexibility, the following input/output schemes are supported by the Register File: * * * One 8-bit output operand and one 8-bit result input Two 8-bit output operands and one 8-bit result input One 16-bit output operand and one 16-bit result input Figure 5-2 AVR CPU General Purpose Working Registers 7 0 R16 R17 General R18 Purpose ... Working R26 X-register Low Byte Registers R27 X-register High Byte R28 Y-register Low Byte R29 Y-register High Byte R30 Z-register Low Byte R31 Z-register High Byte Note: A typical implementation of the AVR register file includes 32 general purpose registers but ATtiny4/5/9/10 implement only 16 registers. For reasons of compatibility the registers are numbered R16...R31, not R0...R15. Most of the instructions operating on the Register File have direct access to all registers, and most of them are single cycle instructions. 5.5. The X-register, Y-register, and Z-register The registers R26...R31 have some added functions to their general purpose usage. These registers are 16-bit address pointers for indirect addressing of the data space. The three indirect address registers X, Y, and Z are defined as described in the figure.

See Instruction Set Summary for details. Related Links Instruction Set Summary on page 198 5.6. Stack Pointer The Stack is mainly used for storing temporary data, for storing local variables and for storing return addresses after interrupts and subroutine calls. The Stack is implemented as growing from higher to lower memory locations. The Stack Pointer Register always points to the top of the Stack, and the Stack Pointer must be set to point above 0x40. The Stack Pointer points to the data SRAM Stack area where the Subroutine and Interrupt Stacks are located. A Stack PUSH command will decrease the Stack Pointer. The Stack in the data SRAM must be defined by the program before any subroutine calls are executed or interrupts are enabled. Initial Stack Pointer value equals the last address of the internal SRAM and the Stack Pointer must be set to point above start of the SRAM. See the table for Stack Pointer details. Table 5-1 Stack Pointer Instructions Instruction Stack pointer Description PUSH Decremented by 1 Data is pushed onto the stack ICALL Decremented by 2 Return address is pushed onto the stack with a subroutine call or interrupt RCALL POP Incremented by 1 Data is popped from the stack RET Incremented by 2 Return address is popped from the stack with return from subroutine or return from interrupt RETI The AVR Stack Pointer is implemented as two 8-bit registers in the I/O space. The number of bits actually used is implementation dependent. Note that the data space in some implementations of the AVR architecture is so small that only SPL is needed. In this case, the SPH Register will not be present. 5.7. Instruction Execution Timing This section describes the general access timing concepts for instruction execution. The AVR CPU is driven by the CPU clock clkCPU, directly generated from the selected clock source for the chip. No internal clock division is used. The Figure below shows the parallel instruction fetches and instruction executions enabled by the Harvard architecture and the fast-access Register File concept. This is the basic pipelining concept to obtain up to 1 MIPS per MHz with the corresponding unique results for functions per cost, functions per clocks, and functions per power-unit.

Figure 5-5 Single Cycle ALU Operation T1 T2 T3 T4 clkCPU Total Execution Time Register Operands Fetch ALU Operation Execute Result Write Back 5.8. Reset and Interrupt Handling The AVR provides several different interrupt sources. These interrupts and the separate Reset Vector each have a separate program vector in the program memory space. All interrupts are assigned individual enable bits which must be written logic one together with the Global Interrupt Enable bit in the Status Register in order to enable the interrupt. The lowest addresses in the program memory space are by default defined as the Reset and Interrupt Vectors. The complete list of vectors is shown in Interrupts. They have determined priority levels: The lower the address the higher is the priority level. RESET has the highest priority, and next is INT0 - the External Interrupt Request 0. When an interrupt occurs, the Global Interrupt Enable I-bit is cleared and all interrupts are disabled. The user software can write logic one to the I-bit to enable nested interrupts. All enabled interrupts can then interrupt the current interrupt routine. The I-bit is automatically set when a Return from Interrupt instruction - RETI - is executed. There are basically two types of interrupts: * The first type is triggered by an event that sets the Interrupt Flag. For these interrupts, the Program Counter is vectored to the actual Interrupt Vector in order to execute the interrupt handling routine, and hardware clears the corresponding Interrupt Flag. Interrupt Flags can also be cleared by writing a logic one to the flag bit position(s) to be cleared. If an interrupt condition occurs while the corresponding interrupt enable bit is cleared, the Interrupt Flag will be set and remembered until the interrupt is enabled, or the flag is cleared by software. Similarly, if one or more interrupt conditions Atmel ATtiny4 / ATtiny5 / ATtiny9 / ATtiny10 [DATASHEET] Atmel-8127G-ATiny4/ ATiny5/ ATiny9/ ATiny10_Datasheet_Complete-09/2015 19 occur while the Global Interrupt Enable bit is cleared, the corresponding Interrupt Flag(s) will be set and remembered until the Global Interrupt Enable bit is set, and will then be executed by order of priority. * The second type of interrupts will trigger as long as the interrupt condition is present. These interrupts do not necessarily have Interrupt Flags. If the interrupt condition disappears before the interrupt is enabled, the interrupt will not be triggered. When the AVR exits from an interrupt, it will always return to the main program and execute one more instruction before any pending interrupt is served. The Status Register is not automatically stored when entering an interrupt routine, nor restored when returning from an interrupt routine. This must be handled by software. When using the CLI instruction to disable interrupts, the interrupts will be immediately disabled. No interrupt will be executed after the CLI instruction, even if it occurs simultaneously with the CLI instruction. When using the SEI instruction to enable interrupts, the instruction following SEI will be executed before any pending interrupts, as shown in this example. Assembly Code Example sei ; set Global Interrupt Enable sleep ; enter sleep, waiting for interrupt ; note: will enter sleep before any pending interrupt(s) Note: See Code Examples Related Links Interrupts on page 56 About Code Examples on page 14 5.8.1. Interrupt Response Time The interrupt execution response for all the enabled AVR interrupts is four clock cycles minimum. After four clock cycles the program vector address for the actual interrupt handling routine is executed. During this four clock cycle period, the Program Counter is pushed onto the Stack. The vector is normally a jump to the interrupt routine, and this jump takes three clock cycles. If an interrupt occurs during execution of a multi-cycle instruction, this instruction is completed before the interrupt is served. If an interrupt occurs when the MCU is in sleep mode, the interrupt execution response time is increased by four clock cycles. This increase comes in addition to the start-up time from the selected sleep mode. A return from an interrupt handling routine takes four clock cycles. During these four clock cycles, the Program Counter (two bytes) is popped back from the Stack, the Stack Pointer is incremented by two, and the I-bit in SREG is set. 5.9.

After CCP is written the protected I/O registers may be written to during the next four CPU instruction cycles. All interrupts are ignored during these cycles. After these cycles interrupts are automatically handled again by the CPU, and any pending interrupts will be executed according to their priority. When the protected I/O register signature is written, CCP[0] will read as one as long as the protected feature is enabled, while CCP[7:1] will always read as zero. CCP[7:1] only have write access. CCP[0] has both read and write access.

The individual interrupt enable control is then performed in separate control registers. If the Global Interrupt Enable Register is cleared, none of the interrupts are enabled independent of the individual interrupt enable settings. The Ibit is cleared by hardware after an interrupt has occurred, and is set by the RETI instruction to enable subsequent interrupts. The I-bit can also be set and cleared by the application with the SEI and CLI instructions, as described in the instruction set reference. Bit 6 - T: Copy Storage The Bit Copy instructions BLD (Bit LoaD) and BST (Bit STore) use the T-bit as source or destination for the operated bit. A bit from a register in the Register File can be copied into T by the BST instruction, and a bit in T can be copied into a bit in a register in the Register File by the BLD instruction. Bit 5 - H: Half Carry Flag The Half Carry Flag H indicates a Half Carry in some arithmetic operations. Half Carry Flag is useful in BCD arithmetic. See the Instruction Set Description for detailed information. Bit 4 - S: Sign Flag, S = N V The S-bit is always an exclusive or between the Negative Flag N and the Two's Complement Overflow Flag V.

AVR Memories 6.1. Overview This section describes the different memory types in the device. The AVR architecture has two main memory spaces, the Data Memory and the Program Memory space. All memory spaces are linear and regular. 6.2. In-System Reprogrammable Flash Program Memory The ATtiny4/5/9/10 contains 512/1024 bytes On-chip In-System Reprogrammable Flash memory for program storage. Since all AVR instructions are 16 or 32 bits wide, the Flash is organized as 256/512 x 16. The Flash memory has an endurance of at least 10,000 write/erase cycles. The device Program Counter (PC) is 9 bits wide, thus addressing the 256/512 program memory locations, starting at 0x000. Memory Programming contains a detailed description on Flash data serial downloading. Constant tables can be allocated within the entire address space of program memory by using load/store instructions. Since program memory can not be accessed directly, it has been mapped to the data memory. The mapped program memory begins at byte address 0x4000 in data memory. Although programs are executed starting from address 0x000 in program memory it must be addressed starting from 0x4000 when accessed via the data memory. Internal write operations to Flash program memory have been disabled and program memory therefore appears to firmware as read-only. Flash memory can still be written to externally but internal write operations to the program memory area will not be successful. Timing diagrams of instruction fetch and execution are presented in Instruction Execution Timing section.

SRAM Data Memory Data memory locations include the I/O memory, the internal SRAM memory, the Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) Lock bits, and the Flash memory. The following figure shows how the ATtiny4/5/9/10 SRAM Memory is organized. The first 64 locations are reserved for I/O memory, while the following 32 data memory locations address the internal data SRAM. The Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) Lock bits and all the Flash memory sections are mapped to the data memory space. These locations appear as read-only for device firmware. The four different addressing modes for data memory are direct, indirect, indirect with pre-decrement, and indirect with post-increment. In the register file, registers R26 to R31 function as pointer registers for indirect addressing. Atmel ATtiny4 / ATtiny5 / ATtiny9 / ATtiny10 [DATASHEET] Atmel-8127G-ATiny4/ ATiny5/ ATiny9/ ATiny10_Datasheet_Complete-09/2015 25 The IN and OUT instructions can access all 64 locations of I/O memory. Direct addressing using the LDS and STS instructions reaches the 128 locations between 0x0040 and 0x00BF. The indirect addressing reaches the entire data memory space. When using indirect addressing modes with automatic pre-decrement and post-increment, the address registers X, Y, and Z are decremented or incremented.

I/O Memory The I/O space definition of the device is shown in the Register Summary. All ATtiny4/5/9/10 I/Os and peripherals are placed in the I/O space. All I/O locations may be accessed by the LD and ST instructions, transferring data between the 16 general purpose working registers and the I/O space. I/O Registers within the address range 0x00-0x1F are directly bit-accessible using the SBI and CBI instructions. In these registers, the value of single bits can be checked by using the SBIS and SBIC instructions. Refer to the Instruction Set Summary section for more details. For compatibility with future devices, reserved bits should be written to zero if accessed. Reserved I/O memory addresses should never be written. Some of the Status Flags are cleared by writing a '1' to them; this is described in the flag descriptions. Note that, unlike most other AVRs, the CBI and SBI instructions will only operate on the specified bit, and can therefore be used on registers containing such Status Flags. The CBI and SBI instructions work with registers 0x00-0x1F only. The I/O and Peripherals Control Registers are explained in later sections.

Clock System 8.1. Clock Distribution The following figure illustrates the principal clock systems in the device and their distribution. All the clocks need not be active at a given time. In order to reduce power consumption, the clocks to modules not being used can be halted by using different sleep modes, as described in the section on Power Management and Sleep Modes. The clock systems are detailed below.

Clock Subsystems 8.2.1. CPU Clock - clkCPU The CPU clock is routed to parts of the system concerned with operation of the AVR core. Examples of such modules are the General Purpose Register File, the System Registers and the SRAM data memory. Halting the CPU clock inhibits the core from performing general operations and calculations. 8.2.2. I/O Clock - clkI/O The I/O clock is used by the majority of the I/O modules, like Timer/Counter. The I/O clock is also used by the External Interrupt module, but note that some external interrupts are detected by asynchronous logic, allowing such interrupts to be detected even if the I/O clock is halted.

NVM Clock - clkNVM The NVM clock controls operation of the Non-Volatile Memory Controller. The NVM clock is usually active simultaneously with the CPU clock. 8.2.4. ADC Clock - clkADC The ADC is provided with a dedicated clock domain. This allows halting the CPU and I/O clocks in order to reduce noise generated by digital circuitry. This gives more accurate ADC conversion results. The ADC is available in ATtiny5/10, only. 8.3. Clock Sources The device has the following clock source options, selectable by Clock Main Select Bits in Clock Main Settings Register (CLKMSR.CLKMS). All synchronous clock signals are derived from the main clock. The three alternative sources for the main clock are as follows: * Calibrated Internal 8 MHz Oscillator * External Clock * Internal 128 kHz Oscillator. Refer to description of Clock Main Select Bits in Clock Main Settings Register (CLKMSR.CLKMS) for how to select and change the active clock source. Related Links CLKMSR on page 36 8.3.1. Calibrated Internal 8 MHz Oscillator The calibrated internal oscillator provides an approximately 8 MHz clock signal. Though voltage and temperature dependent, this clock can be very accurately calibrated by the user. This clock may be selected as the main clock by setting the Clock Main Select bits in CLKMSR (CLKMSR.CLKMS) to 0b00. Once enabled, the oscillator will operate with no external components. During reset, hardware loads the calibration byte into the OSCCAL register and thereby automatically calibrates the oscillator. The accuracy of this calibration is shown as Factory calibration in Accuracy of Calibrated Internal Oscillator of Electrical Characteristics chapter. When this oscillator is used as the main clock, the watchdog oscillator will still be used for the watchdog timer and reset time-out. For more information on the pre-programmed calibration value, see section Calibration Section.

External Clock To drive the device from an external clock source, CLKI should be driven as shown in the Figure below. To run the device on an external clock, the CLKMSR.CLKMS must be programmed to '0b10': Atmel ATtiny4 / ATtiny5 / ATtiny9 / ATtiny10 [DATASHEET] Atmel-8127G-ATiny4/ ATiny5/ ATiny9/ ATiny10_Datasheet_Complete-09/2015 32 Table 8-1 External Clock Frequency Frequency CLKMSR.CLKMS 0 - 16MHz 0b10 Figure 8-2 External Clock Drive Configuration EXTERNAL CLOCK S IGNAL CLKI GND When applying an external clock, it is required to avoid sudden changes in the applied clock frequency to ensure stable operation of the MCU. A variation in frequency of more than 2% from one clock cycle to the next can lead to unpredictable behavior. It is required to ensure that the MCU is kept in Reset during the changes. Related Links CLKMSR on page 36 8.3.3. Internal 128 kHz Oscillator The internal 128 kHz oscillator is a low power oscillator providing a clock of 128 kHz. The frequency depends on supply voltage, temperature and batch variations. This clock may be select as the main clock by setting the CLKMSR.CLKMS to 0b01. Related Links CLKMSR on page 36 8.3.4. Switching Clock Source The main clock source can be switched at run-time using the CLKMSR - Clock Main Settings Register. When switching between any clock sources, the clock system ensures that no glitch occurs in the main clock. Related Links CLKMSR on page 36 8.3.5. Default Clock Source The calibrated internal 8 MHz oscillator is always selected as main clock when the device is powered up or has been reset. The synchronous system clock is the main clock divided by 8, controlled by the System Clock Prescaler. The Clock Prescaler Select Bits in Clock Prescale Register (CLKPSR.CLKPS) can be written later to change the system clock frequency. See section "System Clock Prescaler". Related Links CLKMSR on page 36 8.4. System Clock Prescaler The system clock is derived from the main clock via the System Clock Prescaler. The system clock can be divided by setting the "CLKPSR - Clock Prescale Register". The system clock prescaler can be used to decrease power consumption at times when requirements for processing power is low or to bring the system clock within limits of maximum frequency. The prescaler can be used with all main clock source options, and it will affect the clock frequency of the CPU and all synchronous peripherals. Atmel ATtiny4 / ATtiny5 / ATtiny9 / ATtiny10 [DATASHEET] Atmel-8127G-ATiny4/ ATiny5/ ATiny9/ ATiny10_Datasheet_Complete-09/2015 33 The System Clock Prescaler can be used to implement run-time changes of the internal clock frequency while still ensuring stable operation. 8.4.1. Switching Prescaler Setting When switching between prescaler settings, the system clock prescaler ensures that no glitch occurs in the system clock and that no intermediate frequency is higher than neither the clock frequency corresponding the previous setting, nor the clock frequency corresponding to the new setting. The ripple counter that implements the prescaler runs at the frequency of the main clock, which may be faster than the CPU's clock frequency. Hence, it is not possible to determine the state of the prescaler even if it were readable, and the exact time it takes to switch from one clock division to another cannot be exactly predicted. From the time the CLKPSR.CLKPS values are written, it takes between T1 + T2 and T1 + 2*T2 before the new clock frequency is active. In this interval, two active clock edges are produced. Here, T1 is the previous clock period, and T2 is the period corresponding to the new prescaler setting. 8.5. Starting 8.5.1. Starting from Reset The internal reset is immediately asserted when a reset source goes active. The internal reset is kept asserted until the reset source is released and the start-up sequence is completed. The start-up sequence includes three steps, as follows. 1. The first step after the reset source has been released consists of the device counting the reset start-up time. The purpose of this reset start-up time is to ensure that supply voltage has reached sufficient levels. The reset start-up time is counted using the internal 128 kHz oscillator. Note: The actual supply voltage is not monitored by the start-up logic. The device will count until the reset start-up time has elapsed even if the device has reached sufficient supply voltage levels earlier. 2. The second step is to count the oscillator start-up time, which ensures that the calibrated internal oscillator has reached a stable state before it is used by the other parts of the system. The calibrated internal oscillator needs to oscillate for a minimum number of cycles before it can be considered stable. 3. The last step before releasing the internal reset is to load the calibration and the configuration values from the Non-Volatile Memory to configure the device properly. The configuration time is listed in the next table.

After powering up the device or after a reset the system clock is automatically set to calibrated internal 8 MHz oscillator, divided by 8 8.5.2. Starting from Power-Down Mode When waking up from Power-Down sleep mode, the supply voltage is assumed to be at a sufficient level and only the oscillator start-up time is counted to ensure the stable operation of the oscillator. The oscillator start-up time is counted on the selected main clock, and the start-up time depends on the clock selected.

Overview The high performance and industry leading code efficiency makes the AVR microcontrollers an ideal choise for low power applications. In addition, sleep modes enable the application to shut down unused modules in the MCU, thereby saving power. The AVR provides various sleep modes allowing the user to tailor the power consumption to the application's requirements. 9.2. Sleep Modes The following Table shows the different sleep modes and their wake up Table 9-1 Active Clock Domains and Wake-up Sources in the Different Sleep Modes. Active Clock Domains Oscillators Wake-up Sources Sleep Mode clkCPU clkNVM clkIO clkADC(2) Main Clock Source Enabled INT0 and Pin Change ADC(2) Other I/O Watchdog Interrupt VLM Interrupt Idle Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes(1) Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes(1) Yes Yes(1) Yes Yes ADC Noise Reduction Standby Yes Yes Power-down Yes Note: 1. For INT0, only level interrupt. 2. The ADC is available in ATtiny5/10, only. To enter any of the four sleep modes (Idle, ADC Noise Reduction, Power-down or Standby), the Sleep Enable bit in the Sleep Mode Control Register (SMCR.SE) must be written to '1' and a SLEEP instruction must be executed. Sleep Mode Select bits (SMCR.SM) select which sleep mode will be activated by the SLEEP instruction. If an enabled interrupt occurs while the MCU is in a sleep mode, the MCU wakes up. The MCU is then halted for four cycles in addition to the start-up time, executes the interrupt routine, and resumes execution from the instruction following SLEEP. The contents of the Register File and SRAM are unaltered when the device wakes up from sleep. If a reset occurs during sleep mode, the MCU wakes up and executes from the Reset Vector. Note: If a level triggered interrupt is used for wake-up the changed level must be held for some time to wake up the MCU (and for the MCU to enter the interrupt service routine). See External Interrupts for details. Related Links Interrupts on page 56 SMCR on page 44 9.2.1. Idle Mode When the SMCR.SM is written to '0x000', the SLEEP instruction makes the MCU enter Idle mode, stopping the CPU but allowing the Analog Comparator, Timer/Counters, Watchdog, and the interrupt Atmel ATtiny4 / ATtiny5 / ATtiny9 / ATtiny10 [DATASHEET] Atmel-8127G-ATiny4/ ATiny5/ ATiny9/ ATiny10_Datasheet_Complete-09/2015 40 system to continue operating. This sleep mode basically halts clkCPU and clkNVM, while allowing the other clocks to run. Idle mode enables the MCU to wake up from external triggered interrupts as well as internal ones like the timer overflow. If wake-up from the Analog Comparator interrupt is not required, the Analog Comparator can be powered down by setting the ACD bit in the Analog Comparator Control and Status Register (ACSR.ACD). This will reduce power consumption in Idle mode. If the ADC is enabled (ATtiny5/10, only), a conversion starts automatically when this mode is entered. Related Links ACSR on page 121 SMCR on page 44 9.2.2. ADC Noise Reduction Mode When the SMCR.SM is written to '0x001', the SLEEP instruction makes the MCU enter ADC Noise Reduction mode, stopping the CPU but allowing the ADC, the external interrupts and the Watchdog to continue operating (if enabled). This sleep mode basically halts clkI/O, clkCPU, and clkNVM, while allowing the other clocks to run. This improves the noise environment for the ADC, enabling higher resolution measurements. If the ADC is enabled, a conversion starts automatically when this mode is entered. This mode is available in all devices, although only ATtiny5/10 are equipped with an ADC. Related Links SMCR on page 44 9.2.3. Power-Down Mode When the SMCR.SM is written to '0x010', the SLEEP instruction makes the MCU enter Power-Down mode. In this mode, the external Oscillator is stopped, while the external interrupts and the Watchdog continue operating (if enabled). Only an these events can wake up the MCU: * Watchdog System Reset * External level interrupt on INT0 * Pin change interrupt This sleep mode basically halts all generated clocks, allowing operation of asynchronous modules only. Related Links SMCR on page 44 9.2.4. Standby Mode When the SMCR.SM is written to '0x100', the SLEEP instruction makes the MCU enter Standby mode. This mode is identical to Power-Down with the exception that the Oscillator is kept running. This reduces wake-up time, because the oscillator is already running and doesn't need to be started up. Related Links SMCR on page 44 9.3. Power Reduction Register The Power Reduction Register (PRR) provides a method to stop the clock to individual peripherals to reduce power consumption. When the clock for a peripheral is stopped then: Atmel ATtiny4 / ATtiny5 / ATtiny9 / ATtiny10 [DATASHEET] Atmel-8127G-ATiny4/ ATiny5/ ATiny9/ ATiny10_Datasheet_Complete-09/2015 41 * * * The current state of the peripheral is frozen. The associated registers can not be read or written. Resources used by the peripheral will remain occupied. The peripheral should in most cases be disabled before stopping the clock. Clearing the PRR bit wakes up the peripheral and puts it in the same state as before shutdown. Peripheral module shutdown can be used in Idle mode and Active mode to significantly reduce the overall power consumption. In all other sleep modes, the clock is already stopped. Related Links PRR on page 45 9.4. Minimizing Power Consumption There are several possibilities to consider when trying to minimize the power consumption in an AVR controlled system. In general, sleep modes should be used as much as possible, and the sleep mode should be selected so that as few as possible of the device's functions are operating. All functions not needed should be disabled. In particular, the following modules may need special consideration when trying to achieve the lowest possible power consumption. 9.4.1. Analog Comparator When entering Idle mode, the Analog Comparator should be disabled if not used. In the power-down mode, the analog comparator is automatically disabled. See Analog Comparator for further details. Related Links Analog Comparator on page 120 9.4.2. Analog to Digital Converter If enabled, the ADC will be enabled in all sleep modes. To save power, the ADC should be disabled before entering any sleep mode. When the ADC is turned off and on again, the next conversion will be an extended conversion. Related Links ADC - Analog to Digital Converter on page 124 9.4.3. Watchdog Timer If the Watchdog Timer is not needed in the application, the module should be turned off. If the Watchdog Timer is enabled, it will be enabled in all sleep modes and hence always consume power. In the deeper sleep modes, this will contribute significantly to the total current consumption. Related Links Watchdog Timer on page 49 9.4.4. Port Pins When entering a sleep mode, all port pins should be configured to use minimum power. The most important is then to ensure that no pins drive resistive loads. In sleep modes where both the I/O clock (clkI/O) is stopped, the input buffers of the device will be disabled. This ensures that no power is consumed by the input logic when not needed. In some cases, the input logic is needed for detecting wake-up conditions, and it will then be enabled. Refer to the section Digital Input Enable and Sleep Modes for details on which pins are enabled. If the input buffer is enabled and the input signal is left floating or have an analog signal level close to VCC/2, the input buffer will use excessive power. Atmel ATtiny4 / ATtiny5 / ATtiny9 / ATtiny10 [DATASHEET] Atmel-8127G-ATiny4/ ATiny5/ ATiny9/ ATiny10_Datasheet_Complete-09/2015 42 For analog input pins, the digital input buffer should be disabled at all times. An analog signal level close to VCC/2 on an input pin can cause significant current even in active mode. Digital input buffers can be disabled by writing to the Digital Input Disable Registers (DIDR). Related Links Digital Input Enable and Sleep Modes on page 69 DIDR0 on page 123 9.5.

Resetting the AVR During reset, all I/O Registers are set to their initial values, and the program starts execution from the Reset Vector. The instruction placed at the Reset Vector must be an Relative Jump instruction (RJMP) to the reset handling routine. If the program never enables an interrupt source, the Interrupt Vectors are not used, and regular program code can be placed at these locations. The circuit diagram in the next shows the reset logic. Electrical parameters of the reset circuitry are defined in section System and Reset Characteristics.

This does not require any clock source to be running. After all reset sources have gone inactive, a delay counter is invoked, stretching the internal reset. This allows the power to reach a stable level before normal operation starts. Related Links System and Reset Characteristics on page 165 Starting from Reset on page 34 10.2. Reset Sources The device has four sources of reset: * * Power-on Reset. The MCU is reset when the supply voltage is less than the Power-on Reset threshold (VPOT). External Reset. The MCU is reset when a low level is present on the RESET pin for longer than the minimum pulse length.

The MCU is reset when the Watchdog Timer period expires and the Watchdog System Reset mode is enabled. Power-on Reset A Power-on Reset (POR) pulse is generated by an On-chip detection circuit. The POR is activated whenever VCC is below the detection level. The POR circuit can be used to trigger the start-up Reset, as well as to detect a failure in supply voltage. A Power-on Reset (POR) circuit ensures that the device is reset from Power-on. Reaching the Power-on Reset threshold voltage invokes the delay counter, which determines how long the device is kept in Reset after VCC rise. The Reset signal is activated again, without any delay, when VCC decreases below the detection level.

VCC Level Monitoring ATtiny4/5/9/10 have a VCC Level Monitoring (VLM) circuit that compares the voltage level at the VCC pin against fixed trigger levels. The trigger levels are set with VLM[2:0] bits, see VLMCSR - VCC Level Monitoring Control and Status register. The VLM circuit provides a status flag, VLMF, that indicates if voltage on the VCC pin is below the selected trigger level. The flag can be read from VLMCSR, but it is also possible to have an interrupt generated when the VLMF status flag is set. This interrupt is enabled by the VLMIE bit in the VLMCSR register. The flag can be cleared by changing the trigger level or by writing it to zero. The flag is automatically cleared when the voltage at VCC rises back above the selected trigger level. Atmel ATtiny4 / ATtiny5 / ATtiny9 / ATtiny10 [DATASHEET] Atmel-8127G-ATiny4/ ATiny5/ ATiny9/ ATiny10_Datasheet_Complete-09/2015 47 The VLM can also be used to improve reset characteristics at falling supply. Without VLM, the Power-On Reset (POR) does not activate before supply voltage has dropped to a level where the MCU is not necessarily functional any more. With VLM, it is possible to generate a reset earlier. When active, the VLM circuit consumes some power, as illustrated in the figure of VCC Level Monitor Current vs. VCC in Typical Characteristics. To save power the VLM circuit can be turned off completely, or it can be switched on and off at regular intervals. However, detection takes some time and it is therefore recommended to leave the circuitry on long enough for signals to settle. See VCC Level Monitor. When VLM is active and voltage at VCC is above the selected trigger level operation will be as normal and the VLM can be shut down for a short period of time. If voltage at VCC drops below the selected threshold the VLM will either flag an interrupt or generate a reset, depending on the configuration. When the VLM has been configured to generate a reset at low supply voltage it will keep the device in reset as long as VCC is below the reset level. If supply voltage rises above the reset level the condition is removed and the MCU will come out of reset, and initiate the power-up start-up sequence. If supply voltage drops enough to trigger the POR then PORF is set after supply voltage has been restored. Related Links VLMCSR on page 54 VCC Level Monitor on page 166 Electrical Characteristics on page 162 Typical Characteristics on page 169 10.2.3. External Reset An External Reset is generated by a low level on the RESET pin. Reset pulses longer than the minimum pulse width will generate a reset, even if the clock is not running. Shorter pulses are not guaranteed to generate a reset. When the applied signal reaches the Reset Threshold Voltage (VRST) on its positive edge, the delay counter starts the MCU after the Time-out period (tTOUT ) has expired. The External Reset can be disabled by the RSTDISBL fuse. Figure 10-4 External Reset During Operation CC Related Links System and Reset Characteristics on page 165 10.2.4. Watchdog System Reset When the Watchdog times out, it will generate a short reset pulse of one CK cycle duration. On the falling edge of this pulse, the delay timer starts counting the Time-out period tTOUT.

Watchdog Timer If the watchdog timer is not needed in the application, the module should be turned off. If the watchdog timer is enabled, it will be enabled in all sleep modes and hence always consume power. In the deeper sleep modes, this will contribute significantly to the total current consumption. Refer to Watchdog System Reset on page 48 for details on how to configure the watchdog timer. Overview The Watchdog Timer is clocked from an on-chip oscillator, which runs at 128 kHz, as the next figure. By controlling the Watchdog Timer prescaler, the Watchdog Reset interval can be adjusted. The Watchdog Reset (WDR) instruction resets the Watchdog Timer. The Watchdog Timer is also reset when it is disabled and when a device reset occurs. Ten different clock cycle periods can be selected to determine the reset period. If the reset period expires without another Watchdog Reset, the device resets and executes from the Reset Vector.

To prevent unintentional disabling of the Watchdog or unintentional change of time-out period, two different safety levels are selected by the fuse WDTON. See Procedure for Changing the Watchdog Timer Configuration on page 50 for details.

Safety Level 1 In this mode, the Watchdog Timer is initially disabled, but can be enabled by writing the WDE bit to one without any restriction. A special sequence is needed when disabling an enabled Watchdog Timer. To disable an enabled Watchdog Timer, the following procedure must be followed: 1. Write the signature for change enable of protected I/O registers to register CCP 2. Within four instruction cycles, in the same operation, write WDE and WDP bits 10.3.2.2. Safety Level 2 In this mode, the Watchdog Timer is always enabled, and the WDE bit will always read as one. A protected change is needed when changing the Watchdog Time-out period. To change the Watchdog Time-out, the following procedure must be followed: 1. Write the signature for change enable of protected I/O registers to register CCP 2. Within four instruction cycles, write the WDP bit. The value written to WDE is irrelevant 10.3.3. Code Examples The following code example shows how to turn off the WDT.

Observe that, if enabled, the interrupts will trigger even if the INT0 or PCINT[3:0] pins are configured as outputs. This feature provides a way of generating a software interrupt. The pin change interrupt PCI0 will trigger if any enabled PCINT[3:0] pin toggles. The Pin Change Mask 0/1 Register (PCMSK 0/1) controls which pins contribute to the pin change interrupts. Pin change interrupts on PCINT[3:0] are detected asynchronously. This implies that these interrupts can be used for waking the part also from sleep modes other than Idle mode. The INT0 interrupts can be triggered by a falling or rising edge or a low level. This is set up as indicated in the specification for the External Interrupt Control Register A (EICRA). When the INT0 interrupts are enabled and are configured as level triggered, the interrupts will trigger as long as the pin is held low. Note that recognition of falling or rising edge interrupts on INT0 requires the presence of an I/O clock, described in Clock Systems and their Distribution chapter. Related Links EICRA on page 59 Clock System on page 31 PCMSK on page 64 11.3.1. Low Level Interrupt A low level interrupt on INT0 is detected asynchronously. This means that the interrupt source can be used for waking the part also from sleep modes other than Idle (the I/O clock is halted in all sleep modes except Idle). Atmel ATtiny4 / ATtiny5 / ATtiny9 / ATtiny10 [DATASHEET] Atmel-8127G-ATiny4/ ATiny5/ ATiny9/ ATiny10_Datasheet_Complete-09/2015 57 Note that if a level triggered interrupt is used for wake-up from Power-down, the required level must be held long enough for the MCU to complete the wake-up to trigger the level interrupt. If the level disappears before the end of the Start-up Time, the MCU will still wake up, but no interrupt will be generated. The start-up time is defined as described in Clock System If the low level on the interrupt pin is removed before the device has woken up then program execution will not be diverted to the interrupt service routine but continue from the instruction following the SLEEP command.

The level and edges on the external INT0 pin that activate the interrupt are defined in table below. The value on the INT0 pin is sampled before detecting edges. If edge or toggle interrupt is selected, pulses that last longer than one clock period will generate an interrupt. Shorter pulses are not guaranteed to generate an interrupt. If low level interrupt is selected, the low level must be held until the completion of the currently executing instruction to generate an interrupt. Value Description 00 The low level of INT0 generates an interrupt request. 01 Any logical change on INT0 generates an interrupt request. 10 The falling edge of INT0 generates an interrupt request. 11 The rising edge of INT0 generates an interrupt request.

Overview All AVR ports have true Read-Modify-Write functionality when used as general digital I/O ports. This means that the direction of one port pin can be changed without unintentionally changing the direction of any other pin with the SBI and CBI instructions. The same applies when changing drive value (if configured as output) or enabling/disabling of pull-up resistors (if configured as input). Each output buffer has symmetrical drive characteristics with both high sink and source capability. The pin driver is strong enough to drive LED displays directly. All port pins have individually selectable pull-up resistors with a supply-voltage invariant resistance. All I/O pins have protection diodes to both VCC and Ground as indicated in the following figure. Figure 12-1 I/O Pin Equivalent Schematic R pu Logic Pxn C pin See Figure "General Digital I/O" for Details All registers and bit references in this section are written in general form. A lower case "x" represents the numbering letter for the port, and a lower case "n" represents the bit number. However, when using the register or bit defines in a program, the precise form must be used. For example, PORTB3 for bit no. 3 in Port B, here documented generally as PORTxn. Four I/O memory address locations are allocated for each port, one each for the Data Register - PORTx, Data Direction Register - DDRx, Pull-up Enable Register - PUEx, and the Port Input Pins - PINx. The Port Input Pins I/O location is read only, while the Data Register and the Data Direction Register are read/ write. However, writing '1' to a bit in the PINx Register will result in a toggle in the corresponding bit in the Data Register. In addition, the Pull-up Disable - PUD bit in MCUCR disables the pull-up function for all pins in all ports when set. Using the I/O port as General Digital I/O is described in next section. Most port pins are multiplexed with alternate functions for the peripheral features on the device. How each alternate function interferes with the port pin is described in Alternate Port Functions section in this chapter. Refer to the individual module sections for a full description of the alternate functions. Enabling the alternate function of some of the port pins does not affect the use of the other pins in the port as general digital I/O.

Ports as General Digital I/O The ports are bi-directional I/O ports with optional internal pull-ups. The following figure shows a functional description of one I/O-port pin, here generically called Pxn.

Configuring the Pin Each port pin consists of four register bits: DDxn, PORTxn, PUExn, and PINxn. As shown in the Register Description in this chapter, the DDxn bits are accessed at the DDRx I/O address, the PORTxn bits at the PORTx I/O address, and the PINxn bits at the PINx I/O address. The DDxn bit in the DDRx Register selects the direction of this pin. If DDxn is written to '1', Pxn is configured as an output pin. If DDxn is written to '0', Pxn is configured as an input pin. Atmel ATtiny4 / ATtiny5 / ATtiny9 / ATtiny10 [DATASHEET] Atmel-8127G-ATiny4/ ATiny5/ ATiny9/ ATiny10_Datasheet_Complete-09/2015 66 If PORTxn is written to '1' when the pin is configured as an input pin, the pull-up resistor is activated. To switch the pull-up resistor off, PORTxn has to be written to '0' or the pin has to be configured as an output pin. The port pins are tri-stated when reset condition becomes active, even if no clocks are running. Table 12-1 Port Pin Configurations DDxn PORTxn PUExn I/O Pull-up Comment 0 x 0 Input No Tri-state (hi-Z) 0 x 1 Input Yes Sources current if pulled low externally 1 0 0 Output No Output low (sink) 1 0 1 Output Yes NOT RECOMMENDED. Output low (sink) and internal pull-up active. Sources current through the internal pull-up resistor and consumes power constantly 1 1 0 Output No Output high (source) 1 1 1 Output Yes Output high (source) and internal pull-up active Port pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even when no clocks are running. 12.2.2. Toggling the Pin Writing a '1' to PINxn toggles the value of PORTxn, independent on the value of DDRxn. The SBI instruction can be used to toggle one single bit in a port. 12.2.3. Break-Before-Make Switching In Break-Before-Make mode, switching the DDRxn bit from input to output introduces an immediate tristate period lasting one system clock cycle, as indicated in the figure below. For example, if the system clock is 4 MHz and the DDRxn is written to make an output, an immediate tri-state period of 250 ns is introduced before the value of PORTxn is seen on the port pin. To avoid glitches it is recommended that the maximum DDRxn toggle frequency is two system clock cycles. The Break-Before-Make mode applies to the entire port and it is activated by the BBMx bit. For more details, see PORTCR - Port Control Register. When switching the DDRxn bit from output to input no immediate tri-state period is introduced.

Reading the Pin Value Independent of the setting of Data Direction bit DDxn, the port pin can be read through the PINxn Register bit. As shown in Figure 12-2 General Digital I/O on page 66, the PINxn Register bit and the preceding latch constitute a synchronizer. This is needed to avoid metastability if the physical pin changes value near the edge of the internal clock, but it also introduces a delay. The following figure shows a timing diagram of the synchronization when reading an externally applied pin value. The maximum and minimum propagation delays are denoted tpd,max and tpd,min respectively. Figure 12-4 Synchronization when Reading an Externally Applied Pin value SYSTEM CLK INSTRUCTIONS XXX XXX in r17, PINx SYNC LATCH PINxn r17 0x00 0xFF t pd, max t pd, min Consider the clock period starting shortly after the first falling edge of the system clock. The latch is closed when the clock is low, and goes transparent when the clock is high, as indicated by the shaded region of the "SYNC LATCH" signal. The signal value is latched when the system clock goes low. It is clocked into the PINxn Register at the succeeding positive clock edge. As indicated by the two arrows tpd,max and tpd,min, a single signal transition on the pin will be delayed between 1/2 and 11/2 system clock period depending upon the time of assertion. When reading back a software assigned pin value, a nop instruction must be inserted as indicated in the following figure. The out instruction sets the "SYNC LATCH" signal at the positive edge of the clock. In this case, the delay tpd through the synchronizer is 1 system clock period.

Digital Input Enable and Sleep Modes As shown in the figure of General Digital I/O, the digital input signal can be clamped to ground at the input of the Schmitt Trigger. The signal denoted SLEEP in the figure, is set by the MCU Sleep Controller in Power-down mode and Standby mode to avoid high power consumption if some input signals are left floating, or have an analog signal level close to VCC/2. SLEEP is overridden for port pins enabled as external interrupt pins. If the external interrupt request is not enabled, SLEEP is active also for these pins. SLEEP is also overridden by various other alternate functions as described in Alternate Port Functions section in this chapter. If a logic high level is present on an asynchronous external interrupt pin configured as "Interrupt on Rising Edge, Falling Edge, or Any Logic Change on Pin" while the external interrupt is not enabled, the corresponding External Interrupt Flag will be set when resuming from the above mentioned Sleep mode, as the clamping in these sleep mode produces the requested logic change. 12.2.6. Unconnected Pins If some pins are unused, it is recommended to ensure that these pins have a defined level. Even though most of the digital inputs are disabled in the deep sleep modes as described above, floating inputs should be avoided to reduce current consumption in all other modes where the digital inputs are enabled (Reset, Active mode and Idle mode). The simplest method to ensure a defined level of an unused pin, is to enable the internal pull-up. In this case, the pull-up will be disabled during reset. If low power consumption during reset is important, it is recommended to use an external pull-up or pull-down. Connecting unused pins directly to VCC or GND is not recommended, since this may cause excessive currents if the pin is accidentally configured as an output. 12.2.7. Program Example The following code example shows how to set port B pin 0 high, pin 1 low, and define the port pins from 2 to 3 as input with a pull-up assigned to port pin 2. The resulting pin values are read back again, but as previously discussed, a nop instruction is included to be able to read back the value recently assigned to some of the pins.
