 <b>*</b> When using the 18.432 MHz option (or any frequency by which 64 cannot be divided evenly), micros() is 4-5 times slower (~110 clocks). It reports the time at the point when it was called, not the end.
 This clock frequency is not recommended if your application relies on accurate timing, but is [superb for UART communication](http://wormfood.net/avrbaudcalc.php?bitrate=300%2C600%2C1200%2C2400%2C4800%2C9600%2C14.4k%2C19.2k%2C28.8k%2C38.4k%2C57.6k%2C76.8k%2C115.2k%2C230.4k%2C250k%2C.5m%2C1m&clock=18.432&databits=8).

 <b>**</b> There might be some issues related to the internal oscillator. It's factory calibrated, but may be a little "off" depending on the calibration, ambient temperature and operating voltage. If uploading failes while using the 8 MHz internal oscillator you have three options:
