When this Oscillator is selected, start-up times are determined by the SUT1..0 fuses as shown in
Table 5-5 and CKSEL1..0 fuses as shown in Table 5-6.
Note: 1. These options should only be used if frequency stability at start-up is not important for the
application
5.6 Calibrated Internal RC Oscillator
The calibrated internal RC Oscillator provides a fixed 8.0 MHz clock. The frequency is nominal
value at 3V and 25°C. If 8 MHz frequency exceeds the specification of the device (depends on
V
CC
), the CKDIV8 Fuse must be programmed in order to divide the internal frequency by 8 dur-
ing start-up. The device is shipped with the CKDIV8 Fuse programmed. See “System Clock
Prescaler” on page 44. for more details. This clock may be selected as the system clock by pro-
gramming the CKSEL Fuses as shown in Table 5-7. If selected, it will operate with no external
components. During reset, hardware loads the calibration byte into the OSCCAL Register and
thereby automatically calibrates the RC Oscillator. At 5V and 25°C, this calibration gives a fre-
quency within ± 10% of the nominal frequency. Using calibration methods as described in
application notes available at www.atmel.com/avr it is possible to achieve ± 2% accuracy at any
given V
CC and temperature. When this Oscillator is used as the chip clock, the Watchdog Oscil-
lator will still be used for the Watchdog Timer and for the Reset Time-out. For more information
on the pre-programmed calibration value, see the section “Calibration Byte” on page 339.
Note: 1. The device is shipped with this option selected.
