ATmega8A-PU Microcontroller – 8-bit AVR, DIP-28 Package

The ATmega8A-PU is a low-power, high-performance 8-bit AVR microcontroller based on the RISC architecture. With 8KB of Flash memory, 1KB of SRAM, and 512 bytes of EEPROM, this microcontroller is well-suited for embedded systems, DIY electronics, robotics, automation, and industrial control applications.

Housed in a standard DIP-28 package, the ATmega8A-PU is ideal for breadboard prototyping and through-hole PCB designs. It features rich peripherals including timers, ADC, USART, SPI, I2C, and supports in-system programming (ISP) via SPI.

Key Features

• 8-bit AVR RISC Architecture: Executes most instructions in a single clock cycle

• In-System Programmable: Supports ISP via SPI interface

• Peripheral Rich: Includes 10-bit ADC, timers, UART, SPI, I2C (TWI), PWM

• Low Power Consumption: Features multiple power-saving sleep modes

• DIP-28 Package: Perfect for breadboard and socket-based development

• Compatible With Arduino IDE: Can be used in standalone Arduino projects with bootloader
