Figure 9-5. Brown-out Reset During Operation

9.6 Watchdog System Reset

When the Watchdog times out, it will generate a short reset pulse of one CK cycle duration. On

the falling edge of this pulse, the delay timer starts counting the Time-out period t

TOUT

. Refer to

page 49 for details on operation of the Watchdog Timer.

9.7 Internal Voltage Reference

ATmega48/88/168 features an internal bandgap reference. This reference is used for Brown-out

Detection, and it can be used as an input to the Analog Comparator or the ADC.

9.7.1 Voltage Reference Enable Signals and Start-up Time

The voltage reference has a start-up time that may influence the way it should be used. The

start-up time is given in ”System and Reset Characteristics” on page 307. To save power, the

reference is not always turned on. The reference is on during the following situations:

1. When the BOD is enabled (by programming the BODLEVEL [2:0] Fuses).

2. When the bandgap reference is connected to the Analog Comparator (by setting the

ACBG bit in ACSR).

3. When the ADC is enabled.
