6. AVR Memories
This section describes the different memories in the ATtiny261/461/861. The AVR architecture has two main memory spaces, the Data memory and the Program memory space. In addition, the ATtiny261/461/861 features an EEPROM Memory for data storage. All three memory spaces are linear and regular.
6.1In-System Re-programmable Flash Program Memory
The ATtiny261/461/861 contains 2/4/8K byte On-chip In-System Reprogrammable Flash memory for program storage. Since all AVR instructions are 16 or 32 bits wide, the Flash is organized as 1024/2048/4096 x 16.
The Flash memory has an endurance of at least 10,000 write/erase cycles. The ATtiny261/461/861 Program Counter (PC) is 10/11/12 bits wide, thus addressing the 1024/2048/4096 Program memory locations. ”Memory Programming” on page 168 contains a detailed description on Flash data serial downloading using the SPI pins.
Constant tables can be allocated within the entire Program memory address space (see the
LPM – Load Program memory instruction description).
Timing diagrams for instruction fetch and execution are presented in ”Instruction Execution Timing” on page 13.

6.2SRAM Data Memory
Figure 6-2 shows how the ATtiny261/461/861 SRAM Memory is organized.
The lower 224/352/608 Data memory locations address both the Register File, the I/O memory and the internal data SRAM. The first 32 locations address the Register File, the next 64 locations the standard I/O memory, and the last 128/256/512 locations address the internal data SRAM.
The five different addressing modes for the Data memory cover: Direct, Indirect with Displacement, Indirect, Indirect with Pre-decrement, and Indirect with Post-increment. In the Register File, registers R26 to R31 feature the indirect addressing pointer registers.
The direct addressing reaches the entire data space.
The Indirect with Displacement mode reaches 63 address locations from the base address given by the Y- or Z-register.
