For complete device details, always refer to the most recent version of the ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U datasheet and the Atmel(R) AVR(R) XMEGA(R) AU manual. Errata differences between ATxmega256A3/192A3/128A3/64A3 and ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U are not listed in this document, only in the device datasheet. In addition to the differences described in this document, other typical characteristics could be different. Please check the latest datasheet for details. ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U also includes new configuration options and functions. As far as possible these are implemented as a superset of existing ATxmega256A3/192A3/128A3/64A3 functions, so existing code for these devices will work on the new devices without changing existing configuration or enabling new functions. The new options and functions are listed in the application note for customers who in addition to a pure migration also wish to see an overview to consider use of the new functions. Rev. 8416A-AVR-07/11 2 Enhancements and added functions In this section, we summarize the enhancement or added features in Atmel ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U compared to Atmel ATxmega256A3/192A3/128A3/64A3.

The chip erase time of Atmel ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U devices is longer. The typical chip erase time of ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U devices is listed in the table below. Table 3-1. ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U chip erase time. Product Flash and boot code size Chip erase time ATxmega64A3U 64KB + 4KB 55ms ATxmega128A3U 128KB + 8KB 75ms ATxmega192A3U 192KB + 8KB 90ms ATxmega256A3U 256KB + 8KB 105ms To ensure that the flash chip erase be finished correctly, no flash access should be done during the chip erase time. In the user code, it is always needed to check the FBUSY bit in Non-Volatile Memory Status Register to see when the chip erase is finished. 3.2 Fuses and lock bits BOD levels are different in ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U. Please see section 5.1 Brown-Out Detection for the differences. 3 8416A-AVR-07/11 4 System clock and clock options 4.1 DFLL 2MHz and DFLL 32MHz COMP0, the lowest byte of Oscillator Compare Register, does not exist from both DFLLs for 2MHz and 32MHz internal oscillator in Atmel ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U. For more details, please refer to device datasheet. 5 Reset source 5.1 Brown-out detection The programmable BODLEVEL settings are different in Atmel ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U. See Table 5-1 below for details. Please refer to the device datasheet regarding tolerance for the Brown-out levels. Table 5-1. Brown-out levels. BODLEVEL VBOT - XMEGA AU VBOT - XMEGA A 111 1.6V 1.6V 110 1.8V 1.9V 101 2.0V 2.1V 100 2.2V 2.4V 011 2.4V 2.6V 010 2.6V 2.9V 001 2.8V 3.2V 000 3.0V 3.4V 6 I/O ports The I/O port pins are LVTTL and LVCMOS compatible for Atmel ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U devices. The minimum "Input High Voltage" is never higher than 2.0V for VCC > 2.7V. In Atmel ATxmega256A3/192A3/128A3/64A3, the minimum "Input High Voltage" is 0.7VCC, and could be higher than 2.0V for VCC > 2.86V. 4 Atmel AVR1020 8416A-AVR-07/11 Atmel AVR1020 7 DAC - digital to analog converter The Atmel ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U DAC has two continuous output channels, and not a sample and hold circuit as Atmel ATxmega256A3/192A3/128A3/64A3 devices. This give continuous time output and higher sample rate for each channel. There is separate calibration (offset/gain) for each DAC channel in ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U. When DACA0OFFCAL (in Production Signature Row) is written to CH0OFFSETCAL in DACA, CH1OFFSETCAL is also written with this value. The details of this operation are shown below. The first step, * read DACA0OFFCAL from production signature row * write DACA0OFFCAL to DACA.CH0OFFSETCAL This will result in: * DACA.CH0OFFSETCAL = DACA0OFFCAL * DACA.CH1OFFSETCAL = DACA0OFFCAL The second step, * read DACA1OFFCAL from production signature row * write DACA1OFFCAL to DACA.CH1OFFSETCAL This will result in: * DACA.CH1OFFSETCAL = DACA1OFFCAL After that, any further writing to DACA.CH0OFFSELCAL does not change DACA.CH1OFFSELCAL until the next reset. The same is implemented for both OFFSET and GAIN calibration registers in DACA and DACB. This ensure that customers using the ATxmega256A3/192A3/128A3/64A3 DAC can continue and use the same calibration sequence and still calibrate both channels. TIMCTRL register does not exist in ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U, so there are no timing constraints on DAC operation. 8 AC - analog comparator In Atmel ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U, there is a two-cycle delay from writing a new MUX setting until it takes effect. 5 8416A-AVR-07/11 9 Registers 9.1 Removed registers and bits The below table lists register bits, ATxmega256A3/192A3/128A3/64A3 but ATxmega256A3U/192A3U/128A3U/64A3U. which not exist in in Atmel Atmel Table 9-1.
