27. ATmega644P Typical Characteristics
• The following charts show typical behavior. These figures are not tested during
manufacturing. All current consumption measurements are performed with all I/O pins
configured as inputs and with internal pull-ups enabled. A sine wave generator with rail-to-rail
output is used as clock source.
• The power consumption in Power-down mode is independent of clock selection.
• The current consumption is a function of several factors such as: operating voltage, operating
frequency, loading of I/O pins, switching rate of I/O pins, code executed and ambient
temperature. The dominating factors are operating voltage and frequency.
• The current drawn from capacitive loaded pins may be estimated (for one pin) as C_L*V_CC*f
where C_L = load capacitance, V_CC = operating voltage and f = average switching frequency of
I/O pin.
• The parts are characterized at frequencies higher than test limits. Parts are not guaranteed to
function properly at frequencies higher than the ordering code indicates.
• The difference between current consumption in Power-down mode with Watchdog Timer
enabled and Power-down mode with Watchdog Timer disabled represents the differential
current drawn by the Watchdog Timer.
