Register Description
26.3.1
SPMCSR – Store Program Memory Control and Status Register
The Store Program Memory Control and Status Register contains the control bits needed to con-
trol the Program memory operations.
• Bit 7 – SPMIE: SPM Interrupt Enable
When the SPMIE bit is written to one, and the I-bit in the Status Register is set (one), the SPM
ready interrupt will be enabled. The SPM ready Interrupt will be executed as long as the SELF-
PRGEN bit in the SPMCSR Register is cleared. The interrupt will not be generated during
EEPROM write or SPM.
• Bit 6 – RWWSB: Read-While-Write Section Busy
This bit is for compatibility with devices supporting Read-While-Write. It will always read as zero
in ATmega 48A/48PA.
• Bit 5 – Reserved
This bit is a reserved bit in the ATmega48A/PA/88A/PA/168A/PA/328/P and will always read as
zero.
• Bit 4 – RWWSRE: Read-While-Write Section Read Enable
The functionality of this bit in ATmega 48A/48PA is a subset of the functionality in
ATmega88A/88PA/168A/168PA/328/328P. If the RWWSRE bit is written while filling the tempo-
rary page buffer, the temporary page buffer will be cleared and the data will be lost.
• Bit 3 – BLBSET: Boot Lock Bit Set
The functionality of this bit in ATmega 48A/48PA is a subset of the functionality in
ATmega88A/88PA/168A/168PA/328/328P. An LPM instruction within three cycles after BLBSET
and SELFPRGEN are set in the SPMCSR Register, will read either the Lock bits or the Fuse bits
(depending on Z0 in the Z-pointer) into the destination register. See
Bits from Software” on page 273
for details.
• Bit 2 – PGWRT: Page Write
If this bit is written to one at the same time as SELFPRGEN, the next SPM instruction within four
clock cycles executes Page Write, with the data stored in the temporary buffer. The page
address is taken from the high part of the Z-pointer. The data in R1 and R0 are ignored. The
PGWRT bit will auto-clear upon completion of a Page Write, or if no SPM instruction is executed
within four clock cycles. The CPU is halted during the entire Page Write operation.
• Bit 1 – PGERS: Page Erase
If this bit is written to one at the same time as SELFPRGEN, the next SPM instruction within four
clock cycles executes Page Erase. The page address is taken from the high part of the Z-
pointer. The data in R1 and R0 are ignored. The PGERS bit will auto-clear upon completion of a
