CLOCK CHARACTERISTICS AND TIMING
The TMS32025 can use either its internal oscillator or an external frequency source for a clock.
internal clock option
The internal oscillator is enabled by connecting a crystal across X1 and X2/CLKIN (see Figure 2). The frequency
of CLKOUT1 is one-fourth the crystal fundamental frequency. The crystal should be either fundamental
or overtone mode, and parallel resonant, with an effective series resistance of 30 , a power dissipation
of 1 mW, and be specified at a load capacitance of 20 pF. Note that overtone crystals require an additional tuned
LC circuit; see the application report,

PARAMETER TEST CONDITIONS MIN TYP MAX UNIT
fxInput clock frequency TA = 0°C to 70°C 6.7 40.96 MHz
fxs Serial port frequency TA = 0°C to 70°C 05 120 MHz
C1, C2 TA = 0°C to 70°C 10 pF
The serial port was tested at a minimum frequency of 1.25 MHz. However, the serial port was fully static but will properly function down
to fsx = 0 Hz.

external clock option
An external frequency source can be used by injecting the frequency directly into X2/CLKIN with X1 left
unconnected. The external frequency injected must conform to the specifications listed in the following table.
