29.2.1. Latching of Fuses
The fuse values are latched when the device enters programming mode and changes of the fuse values
will have no effect until the part leaves Programming mode. This does not apply to the EESAVE Fuse
which will take effect once it is programmed. The fuses are also latched on Power-up in Normal mode.
29.3. Signature Bytes
All Atmel microcontrollers have a three-byte signature code which identifies the device. This code can be
read in both serial and parallel mode, also when the device is locked. The three bytes reside in a
separate address space.
For the ATmega32A the signature bytes are given in the following table.
Table 29-5. Device and JTAG ID
Part Signature Bytes Address JTAG
0x000 0x001 0x002 Part Number Manufacture ID
ATmega32A 0x1E 0x95 0x02 9502 0x1F
29.4. Signature Bytes
All Atmel microcontrollers have a three-byte signature code which identifies the device. This code can be
read in both serial and parallel mode, also when the device is locked. The three bytes reside in a
separate address space.
For the ATmega32A the signature bytes are given in the following table.
Table 29-6. Device and JTAG ID
Part Signature Bytes Address JTAG
0x000 0x001 0x002 Part Number Manufacture ID
ATmega32A 0x1E 0x96 0x02 9602 0x1F
29.5. Calibration Byte
The ATmega32A stores four different calibration values for the internal RC Oscillator. These bytes resides
in the signature row High byte of the addresses 0x0000, 0x0001, 0x0002, and 0x0003 for 1, 2, 4, and
8MHz respectively. During Reset, the 1MHz value is automatically loaded into the OSCCAL Register. If
other frequencies are used, the calibration value has to be loaded manually, see OSCCAL – Oscillator
Calibration Register for details.

29.6. 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 device. Pulses are assumed to be at least 250ns unless
otherwise noted.
