ATmega325P/3250P

To avoid unintentional changes of clock frequency, a special write procedure must be followed

to change the CLKPS bits:

Write the Clock Prescaler Change Enable (CLKPCE) bit to one and all other bits in

CLKPR to zero.

Within four cycles, write the desired value to CLKPS while writing a zero to CLKPCE.

Interrupts must be disabled when changing prescaler setting to make sure the write procedure is

not interrupted.

The CKDIV8 Fuse determines the initial value of the CLKPS bits. If CKDIV8 is unprogrammed,

the CLKPS bits will be reset to “0000”. If CKDIV8 is programmed, CLKPS bits are reset to

“0011”, giving a division factor of 8 at start up. This feature should be used if the selected clock

source has a higher frequency than the maximum frequency of the device at the present operat-

ing conditions. Note that any value can be written to the CLKPS bits regardless of the CKDIV8

Fuse setting. The Application software must ensure that a sufficient division factor is chosen if

the selected clock source has a higher frequency than the maximum frequency of the device at

the present operating conditions. The device is shipped with the CKDIV8 Fuse programmed.
