About this manual

The ATmega169P is a low‑power 8‑bit CMOS microcontroller based on Atmel's AVR enhanced RISC architecture. It offers 16 KB of In‑System Self‑Programmable Flash, 512 B EEPROM, 1 KB SRAM, and up to 53 programmable I/O lines. The device includes a rich peripheral set such as three timer/counters, an 8‑channel 10‑bit ADC, a USART, SPI, JTAG, and an on‑chip LCD controller.

Designed for automotive applications, the ATmega169P meets ISO‑TS‑16949 and AEC‑Q100 grade 3 quality standards. It operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V with speed grades of 0‑8 MHz (2.7‑5.5 V) or 0‑16 MHz (4.5‑5.5 V) and functions across a temperature range of –40 °C to 85 °C. Power‑saving modes reduce consumption to sub‑µA levels, making it suitable for battery‑operated designs.
