ATTINY806-MN

Overview

The ATtiny806-MN is an 8-bit AVR microcontroller from the tinyAVR 0-series, featuring a hardware multiplier and operating at up to 20 MHz. It includes 8 KB of in-system self-programmable Flash memory, 512 bytes of SRAM, and 128 bytes of EEPROM. The device is housed in a 24-pin VQFN package (4x4 mm) and supports industrial temperature ranges of -40°C to 105°C or -40°C to 125°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrates Core Independent Peripherals including a Real-Time Counter and Configurable Custom Logic for CPU offloading.
• Features a single-cycle I/O access architecture with a two-level interrupt controller for efficient processing.
• Supports low-power operation through three sleep modes: Idle, Standby, and Power-Down with full data retention.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring reliable peripheral management
• Battery-powered devices utilizing low-power sleep modes
• Applications needing precise timing via the integrated Real-Time Counter

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required package type and temperature grade. Confirm the device revision against the silicon errata document before finalizing production designs. Ensure compatibility with the Single-Pin Unified Program and Debug Interface (UPDI) tools used during development.

Selection Notes

Select this component when 8 KB of program memory and 128 bytes of EEPROM are sufficient for the application logic. The 24-pin VQFN package provides higher I/O density compared to smaller packages. Consider the 20 MHz maximum clock speed and available analog peripherals like the 10-bit ADC for sensor interfacing requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the tinyAVR 0-series family, which utilizes Microchip's latest low-power technology. The series emphasizes flexible architecture with accurate analog features and core-independent peripherals. It shares architectural similarities with the ATtiny804 and ATtiny807 but differs in memory capacity and pin count.
