Hardware Description

RTC

There is an external real-time clock clocked by a dedicated 32kHz crystal

 

oscillator. The RTC outputs the 32kHz clock to the FPGA where it is

 

buffered and then sent to the ARM926EJ-S PXP Development Chip

 

where it can be used as the CPU clock for low-power mode.

Ethernet

The Ethernet controller has a 25MHz dedicated crystal oscillator for

 

timing the Ethernet bus. HCLKM2 (typically generated from the

 

programmable oscillator OSC0) is used as a reference frequency for the

 

controller interface to the FPGA.

USB

The 24MHz reference from the programmable oscillator OSC0 is used as

 

a reference frequency for the external USB controller.

Logic Tile

A Logic Tile can be connected to the expansion connectors. The tile

 

normally uses the GLOBALCLK from the PB926EJ-S as the clock for

 

its AHB buses. The tile can, however, also generate GLOBALCLK.

 

(The signal nGLOBALCLKEN from Z50 on the Logic Tile indicates to

 

the PB926EJ-S whether GLOBALCLK is supplied from OSC0 or from

 

the Logic Tile. This signal is pulled HIGH by the Logic Tile to select the

 

Logic Tile GLOBALCLK as the source for GLOBALCLK on the

 

PB926EJ-S.)

 

The tile can also generate the external clocks for the AHB bridges when

 

they are operating in asynchronous mode. In normal operation, the AHB

 

bridges operate in synchronous mode and the PB926EJ-S is the source of

 

the bridge clocks connected to the tile.

 

The static memory clocks, CLCD data clock, and several of the

 

peripheral clocks from the PB926EJ-S are connected to the tile.

Debug

The JTAG connector supplies the reference JTAG clock TCK. There is

 

also an on-board USB debug port that is driven by the 24MHz reference

 

and a dedicated 6MHz crystal oscillator.

The various clocks and clock selection mechanism are described in the following sections:

ARM926EJ-S PXP Development Chip clocks on page 3-39

ICS307 programmable clock generators on page 3-48

Peripheral clocks on page 3-54

RealView Logic Tile clocks on page 3-52.

Note

The clocking selection and control logic in the PB926EJ-S enables you to emulate many different clock systems and operating modes (for example, low-power mode with slow clocks, operation without a PLL, and synchronous or asynchronous AHB bridges).
