Re: [AVR-Chat] Internal Reference Voltage on ATmega64L?

2005-08-23 by david.pallant@prometheanworld.com

Yep. Data sheet says 2.4 to 2.8V.

Just been looking at the bandgap reference in the mega88. 1.0 to 1.2V. Pretty much useless as a true reference! We're having to use the power supply as a reference and calculate the error on the bandgap reference before calculating any measured input voltage.
