ATmega8U2/16U2/32U2
25.6 Parallel Programming Parameters, Pin Mapping, and Commands
This section describes how to parallel program and verify Flash Program memory, EEPROM
Data memory, Memory Lock bits, and Fuse bits in the ATmega8U2/16U2/32U2. Pulses are
assumed to be at least 250 ns unless otherwise noted.
25.6.1
Signal Names
In this section, some pins of the ATmega8U2/16U2/32U2 are referenced by signal names
describing their functionality during parallel programming, see Figure 25-1 and Table 25-9. Pins
not described in the following table are referenced by pin names.
The XA1/XA0 pins determine the action executed when the XTAL1 pin is given a positive pulse.
The bit coding is shown in Table 25-12.
When pulsing WR or OE, the command loaded determines the action executed. The different
commands are shown in Table 25-13.
