Signature Row (SIGROW)

The content of the Signature Row fuses (SIGROW) is preprogrammed and cannot be altered. SIGROW holds information such as device ID, serial number, and factory calibration values.

All AVR microcontrollers have a three-byte device ID that identifies the device. This device ID can be read in both serial and parallel mode, also when the device is locked. The three bytes reside in the Signature Row. The signature bytes are given in the following table.

Table 1. Device ID
Device Name Signature Bytes Address
0x00 0x01 0x02
ATmega3209 0x1E 0x95 0x31
ATmega3208 0x1E 0x95 0x30
