This document describes the features of the ATmega16(L) microcontroller, including its 16K bytes of flash memory, 512 bytes of EEPROM, 1K byte of SRAM, 32 general purpose I/O lines, and various peripherals such as timers, serial interfaces, and an 8-channel 10-bit ADC. It provides pin descriptions and overview of the AVR CPU architecture, which uses separate memory and buses for program and data with 32 general purpose registers enabling single cycle operations. The microcontroller is useful for embedded applications requiring low power and various I/O functions.
