The following table lists the supported combinations of the CPU_CLK Frequency select, CPU_CLK

to DDR CLK ratio, and to CPU_CLK to CPU L2 clock ratio (see Section 6.5, Pins Sample

Configuration, on page66).

SATA PHY PLL • Reference clock:
REF_CLK_XIN (25 MHz)
• Derivative clock:
SATA Clock (150 MHz)
RTC • Reference clock:
RTC_XIN (32.768 kHz)
Used for real time clock functionality, see the Real Time Clock section in the
88F6180, 88F6190, 88F6192, and 88F6281 Functional Specifications.
PTP • Reference clock:
PTP_CLK (125 MHz)
The PTP_CLK can be used for the following functions:
• PTP time stamp clock
Two options for reference clock:
- PTP_CLK
- Gigabit Ethernet Clock (125 MHz)
• TS unit clock
Two options for reference clock:
- PTP_CLK/2
- Core PLL
• Audio unit clock
Two options for reference clock:
- PTP_CLK
- REF_CLK_XIN (25 MHz)
For clocking configuration registers, see the 88F6180, 88F6190, 88F6192, and
88F6281 Functional Specifications.
