3.5.4 Peripheral Clocking Considerations

3.5.4.1 Video Processing Back End Clocking

The Video Processing Back End (VPBE) is a sub-module of the VPSS (Video Processing Subsystem).

The VPBE is designed to interface with a variety of LCDs and an internal DAC module. There are two asynchronous clock domains in the VPBE: an internal clock domain and an external clock domain. The internal clock domain is driven by the VPSS clock (PLL1 SYSCLK4). The external clock domain is configurable; you can select one of five source:

24 MHz crystal input at MXI1

27 MHz crystal input at MXI2 (optional feature, not typically used)

PLL1 SYSCLK3

EXTCLK pin (external VPBE clock input pin)

PCLK pin (VPFE pixel clock input pin)

See the TMS320DM355 DMSoC Video Processing Back End (VPBE) User's Guide for complete information on VPBE clocking.

3.5.4.2 USB Clocking

The USB Controller is driven by two clocks: an output clock of PLL1 (SYSCLK2) and an output clock of the USB PHY.

NOTE

For proper USB function, SYSCLK2 must be greater than 60 MHz.

The USB PHY takes an input clock that is configurable by the USB PHY clock source bits (PHYCLKSRC) in the USB PHY control register (USB_PHY_CTL) in the System Control Module. When a 24 MHz crystal is used at MXI1/MXO1, set PHYCLKSRC to 0. This will present a 24 MHz clock to the USB PHY. When a 36 MHz crystal is used at MXI1/MXO1, set PHYCLKSRC to 1. This will present a 12 MHz clock (36 MHz
