# 2023-10-02 — Dev notes [AVR Microcontrollers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVR_microcontrollers)... from screenshot (with OCR errors): > In the tinyAVR and megaAVR variants of the AVR architecture, the working registers are mapped in as the first 32 data memory addresses (000016-001F16, followed by 64 I/O registers > > (002016-005F16). In devices with many peripherals, these registers are followed by 160 "extended I/O" registers, only accessible as memory-mapped 1/0 (006016-00FF16). > > Actual SRAM starts after these register sections, at address 006016 or, in devices with "extended IO" at 010016 > > Even though there are separate addressing schemes and optimized opcodes for accessing the register file and the first 64 I/O registers, all can also be addressed and manipulated as if they were in SRAM.
