Descriptions:

• The ATmega88-20AU is a low-power, high-performance microcontroller based on the AVR enhanced RISC architecture.
• It executes most instructions in a single clock cycle, achieving throughputs up to 1 MIPS per MHz.
• Suitable for embedded control applications, including industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics.
• Supports In-System Programming (ISP) and Self-Programming (Bootloader) for flexible firmware updates.

Features:

• Advanced RISC Architecture (131 instructions, mostly single-cycle execution).
• Power-On Reset (POR) & Brown-Out Detection (BOD) for reliable operation.
• Internal RC Oscillator (8 MHz with calibration).
• Six Sleep Modes (Idle, ADC Noise Reduction, Power-save, Power-down, Standby, Extended Standby).
• Watchdog Timer (WDT) for system monitoring.
• Analog Comparator for signal comparison.
• JTAG & DebugWIRE support for debugging.
• Robust Peripheral Set (ADC, PWM, USART, SPI, I²C).
