The manufacturer website is where you usually want to go to find the documentation. The product datasheet will specify the peripherals and register set for the chip you're looking at, including a description of each register and the fields within them. Some companies have a different name for this document. E.g. ST usually define their registers in a Reference Manual.
Here's the datasheet for the ATMega328: http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/Atmel-42735-8-bit-AVR-Microcontroller-ATmega328-328P_Datasheet.pdf http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/Atmel-42735-...

- baobrien 9y agoTo add, ST has a 'datasheet' and a 'reference manual' for each chip and chip family. The datasheet is usually under 200 pages and is focused more on electrical information and is focused on a few chips. The ST reference manuals are generally over 1000 pages and cover all of the software/register information for a family of parts.
