CHAPTER 4 BUS INTERFACE
4.18 Internal Clock Multiplication (Clock Doubler)

The MB91F109 has a clock multiplication circuit with which the inside of the CPU

operates at a frequency one or two times that of the bus interface. The bus interface

operates synchronously with the CLK output pin regardless of which clock is chosen.

When an external access request is generated from the CPU, access to the outside

starts and waits for the CLK output to rise.

This device type is not provided with this function.

How to Choose Clocks
For details on choosing the 1X and 2X clocks, see Section 3 .14, "Clock Doubler Function."
A chosen clock can be optionally changed dur ing chip operation. When the clock is being
switched, the bus operation is temporarily suppres sed. When the c hip is reset, th e 1X clock is
selected automatically.
Figure 4.18-1 shows example of a 2X clock timing chart. Figure 4 .18-2 shows an ex ample of a
1X clock timing chart.
