3.3  PDI Interface 

The Program and Debug Interface (PDI) is an Atmel proprietary two-line interface that was introduced with the 

Atmel AVR XMEGA

®

 microcontroller family. As the name implies, this interface can be used for both In-System 

Programming and on-chip debugging of devices. 

Figure 3-6

 shows the standard PDI connector supplied with Atmel programmers. Only two pins on the device are 

needed for use of this interface: RESET, also called PDI_CLK, and the dedicated PDI_DATA pin. The target’s 

voltage supply is made available to allow for powering of the device or ensuring correct signal levels during 

programming.

3.3.1  External Reset Circuitry 

Since the RESET line is used for clocking the PDI, it is important to bypass or avoid any circuitry that can distort 

the clock signal during programming or debugging, such as capacitors and external reset sources. During normal 

operation the RESET pin has an internal filter to prevent unintentional resets, e.g. caused by short spikes on the
