AMD SC1201, SC1200 manual Clock Generators and PLLs

General Configuration Block 32579B

4.5Clock Generators and PLLs

This section describes the registers for the clocks required by the GX1 module, Core Logic module, and the Video Processor, and how these clocks are generated. See Fig- ure 4-2for a clock generation diagram.

The clock generators are based on 32.768 KHz and 27.000 MHz crystal oscillators. The 32.768 KHz crystal oscillator is described in Section 5.5.2 "RTC Clock Generation" on page 105 (functional description of the RTC).
