About Code Examples

This documentation contains simple code examples that briefly show how to use various parts of

the device. Be aware that not all C compiler vendors include bit definitions in the header files

and interrupt handling in C is compiler dependent. Please confirm with the C compiler documen-

tation for more details.

The code examples assume that the part specific header file is included before compilation. For

I/O registers located in extended I/O map, "IN", "OUT", "SBIS", "SBIC", "CBI", and "SBI" instruc-

tions must be replaced with instructions that allow access to extended I/O. Typically "LDS" and

"STS" combined with "SBRS", "SBRC", "SBR", and "CBR".

Data Retention

Reliability Qualification results show that the projected data retention failure rate is much less

than 1 PPM over 20 years at 85°C or 100 years at 25°C.

Capacitive touch sensing

The Atmel

faces on most Atmel AVR

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 chan-

nels 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:

www.atmel.com/qtouchlibrary. For implementation details and other information, refer to the
