ATmega8A
• MISO – Port B, Bit 4
MISO: Master Data input, Slave Data output pin for SPI channel. When the SPI is enabled as a
Master, this pin is configured as an input regardless of the setting of DDB4. When the SPI is
enabled as a Slave, the data direction of this pin is controlled by DDB4. When the pin is forced
by the SPI to be an input, the pull-up can still be controlled by the PORTB4 bit.
• MOSI/OC2 – Port B, Bit 3
MOSI: SPI Master Data output, Slave Data input for SPI channel. When the SPI is enabled as a
Slave, this pin is configured as an input regardless of the setting of DDB3. When the SPI is
enabled as a Master, the data direction of this pin is controlled by DDB3. When the pin is forced
by the SPI to be an input, the pull-up can still be controlled by the PORTB3 bit.
OC2, Output Compare Match Output: The PB3 pin can serve as an external output for the
Timer/Counter2 Compare Match. The PB3 pin has to be configured as an output (DDB3 set
(one)) to serve this function. The OC2 pin is also the output pin for the PWM mode timer
function.
• SS/OC1B – Port B, Bit 2
SS: Slave Select input. When the SPI is enabled as a Slave, this pin is configured as an input
regardless of the setting of DDB2. As a Slave, the SPI is activated when this pin is driven low.
When the SPI is enabled as a Master, the data direction of this pin is controlled by DDB2. When
the pin is forced by the SPI to be an input, the pull-up can still be controlled by the PORTB2 bit.
OC1B, Output Compare Match output: The PB2 pin can serve as an external output for the
Timer/Counter1 Compare Match B. The PB2 pin has to be configured as an output (DDB2 set
(one)) to serve this function. The OC1B pin is also the output pin for the PWM mode timer
function.
• OC1A – Port B, Bit 1
OC1A, Output Compare Match output: The PB1 pin can serve as an external output for the
Timer/Counter1 Compare Match A. The PB1 pin has to be configured as an output (DDB1 set
(one)) to serve this function. The OC1A pin is also the output pin for the PWM mode timer
function.
• ICP1 – Port B, Bit 0
ICP1 – Input Capture Pin: The PB0 pin can act as an Input Capture Pin for Timer/Counter1.
Table 12-3
and
Table 12-4
relate the alternate functions of Port B to the overriding signals
shown in
Figure 12-5 on page
56. SPI MSTR INPUT and SPI SLAVE OUTPUT constitute the
MISO signal, while MOSI is divided into SPI MSTR OUTPUT and SPI SLAVE INPUT.
