This document is under development and its contents are subject to change.
7. Clock Generating Circuit
7.1 Types of Clock Generating Circuit
Four circuits are incorporated to generate the system clock signal:
• Main clock oscillation circuit
• Sub clock oscillation circuit
• On-chip oscillator
• PLL frequency synthesizer
Table 7.1 lists the clock generating circuit specifications. Figure 7.1 shows the clock generating circuit.
Figures 7.2 to 7.8 show the clock-related registers.
