Introduction
This section discusses the Atmega328p and Arduino Pinout and Mapping. The Arduino style pinout is mapped with the chip style pinout and the alternate functions are described.
Most port pins have alternate functions in addition to being general digital I/Os. The below article shows and discusses the peripheral available in each port pin and their alternate functions.

ATmega328P Pin Configuration / PinOut
Below are the two most popular packages of ATmega328P that are sold and used in Arduino Board. Arduino UNO uses the PDIP package of ATmega328P and Arduino NANO uses the TQFP Package of ATmega328P.
Pin Description ATmega328P
VCC
Digital Supply Voltage for the operation of the chip.
GND
Digital Supply Ground for the operation of the chip.
AVCC
AVCC is the supply voltage pin for the A/D Converter, PC3:0, and ADC7:6. It should be externally connected to VCC, even if the ADC is not used. If the ADC is used, it should be connected to VCC through a low-pass filter. Note that PC6…4 use digital supply voltage, VCC.
AREF
AREF is the analog reference pin for the A/D Converter.
ADC7:6 (TQFP and QFN/MLF Package Only) (D21:D20 Arduino NANO)
In the TQFP and QFN/MLF package, ADC7:6 serves as analog inputs to the A/D converter. These pins are powered from the analog supply and serve as 10-bit ADC channels.
Port B (PB7:0)
Port B is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-up resistors (selected for each bit). The Port B output buffers have symmetrical drive characteristics with both high sink and source capability. As inputs, Port B pins that are externally pulled low will source current if the pull-up resistors are activated. The Port B pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if the clock is not running.
Depending on the clock selection fuse settings, PB6 can be used as input to the inverting Oscillator amplifier and input to the internal clock operating circuit.
Depending on the clock selection fuse settings, PB7 can be used as output from the inverting Oscillator amplifier.
If the Internal Calibrated RC Oscillator is used as the chip clock source, PB7…6 is used as TOSC2…1 input for the Asynchronous Timer/Counter2 if the AS2 bit in ASSR is set.
