ATMEGA88PA in ATmega Family
The ATMEGA88PA is a high-performance, low-power 8-bit microcontroller family from Microchip Technology, based on the enhanced RISC AVR architecture. By executing powerful instructions in a single clock cycle, the ATMEGA88PA achieves throughputs approaching 1 MIPS per MHz, allowing system designers to optimize power consumption versus processing speed. This sub-family is a cost-optimized variant within the megaAVR line, specifically targeting applications that require a balance of 8 KB program memory with advanced peripheral integration and picoPower technology.
Variants in This Sub-Family
Comparing specs that differ across variants.
| Part Number | Package | ADC/DAC | Stock |
|---|---|---|---|
| ATMEGA88PA-PU (Microchip Technology) | DIP-28 | A/D 6x10b | 2,377 |
| ATMEGA88PA-AU (Microchip Technology) | TQFP-32 | A/D 8x10b | 6,498 |
Variants within the ATMEGA88PA family primarily differ by package type and industrial temperature rating. The 'PU' suffix denotes a 28-pin PDIP package, popular for prototyping and through-hole assembly, while the 'AU' suffix indicates a 32-lead TQFP surface-mount package. Additionally, the 'MMH' and 'MU' variants offer smaller VQFN and QFN footprints. All variants maintain functional compatibility, sharing the same 8 KB Flash, 1 KB SRAM, and 512 bytes of EEPROM.
