CHAPTER 5 CLOCK GENERATOR
5.6 Changing CPU Clock Settings
5.6.1 Time required for CPU clock switchover
The CPU clock can be switched over by means of bits 0 to 2 (PCC0 to PCC2) of the processor clock control register
(PCC).
The actual switchover operation is not performed directly after writing to the PCC, but operation continues on the
pre-switchover clock for several instructions (see Table 5-2).
