There is a generic class template atomic<T>. The type of the template argument T shall be trivially copyable ([basic.types]). [ Note: Type arguments that are not also statically initializable may be difficult to use. — end note ]
The semantics of the operations on specializations of atomic are defined in [atomics.types.operations].
Specializations and instantiations of the atomic template shall have a deleted copy constructor, a deleted copy assignment operator, and a constexpr value constructor.
There shall be full specializations of the atomic template for the integral types char, signed char, unsigned char, short, unsigned short, int, unsigned int, long, unsigned long, long long, unsigned long long, char16_t, char32_t, wchar_t, and any other types needed by the typedefs in the header <cstdint>. For each integral type integral, the specialization atomic<integral> provides additional atomic operations appropriate to integral types. There shall be a specialization atomic<bool> which provides the general atomic operations as specified in [atomics.types.operations.general].
The atomic integral specializations and the specialization atomic<bool> shall have standard layout. They shall each have a trivial default constructor and a trivial destructor. They shall each support aggregate initialization syntax.
There shall be pointer partial specializations of the atomic class template. These specializations shall have standard layout, trivial default constructors, and trivial destructors. They shall each support aggregate initialization syntax.
There shall be named types corresponding to the integral specializations of atomic, as specified in Table [tab:atomics.integral], and a named type atomic_bool corresponding to the specified atomic<bool>. Each named type is a either typedef to the corresponding specialization or a base class of the corresponding specialization. If it is a base class, it shall support the same member functions as the corresponding specialization.

There shall be atomic typedefs corresponding to the typedefs in the header <inttypes.h> as specified in Table [tab:atomics.typedefs].

[ Note: The representation of an atomic specialization need not have the same size as its corresponding argument type. Specializations should have the same size whenever possible, as this reduces the effort required to port existing code. — end note ]
