7.1 MVIO Hardware Setup

Todo:
  • Modify the AVR128DB48 Curiosity Nano to work with two voltage domains
  • Set the AVR128DB48 Curiosity Nano fuses so it operates with two voltage domains
  1. Remove the resistor right below the VDDIO2 label to disconnect VDDIO2 from VDD. This is the resistor R204 in Figure   1, pointed to by the arrow in Figure   2.
    Figure 7-1. Assignment 6: VDDIO2 Schematic
  2. Connect a wire between PD2 and VDDIO2+, as shown in Figure   2.

  3. Set the MVSYSCFG bit field in the System Configuration 1 (SYSCFG) fuse to DUAL.
    Info: To program fuses in Atmel Studio, press Tools→Device Programming to get the Device Programming window. Under Tools, select the nEDBG, then press Apply followed by Read. Press Fuses and set SYSCFG1.MVSYSCFG to “Device used in a dual supply configuration.” The window should then look like in Figure   3. Press Program to program the current fuse settings onto the device.
