Hello, readers welcome to new post. Here we will discuss Introduction to ATMega2560 Microcontroller. ATMega2560 belongs to Atmel family and eight-bit less power usage microcontroller and exist in the Arduino Mega board. Its architecture is eight-bit AVR RISC. it also has 256-kilobyte memory with 4JB EEPROM and eight KB static ram.

Different modules such as timers, counters, PWM comparator and ADC are configured on the board. Operating votls five volts with 16 megahertz frequency it has. In this post we will cover different parameters of this controller with detail. So lets get started

Introduction to ATMega2560 Microcontroller

The Atmega2560 controller is less power consumer CMOS eight-bit controller corporate with an AVR RISC structure.

By applying the high-level commands with one clock cycle this module can get throughputs by getting one MIPS in one MHz permitting engineers to mage the power used over the processing speed.
It is created with the use of non-volatile Atmel high-density memory.
It is less expensive and flexible board due to the combination of RISC with flash memory.
It compatible with different programmings such as C compiler, macro assemblers, evaluation kits simulators and debuggers.
