System Clock Generator

When the PLL is powered up (PLL_PWRDN = 0), the PLL will start its phase-locking sequence. You must keep the clock generator in BYPASS MODE for at least 4 mS while the phase-locking sequence is ongoing. See Section 1.4.3.2 for more details on the PLL_MODE of the clock generator.

1.4.2.3CLKOUT Pin

For debug purposes, the DSP includes a CLKOUT pin which can be used to tap different clocks within the clock generator. The SRC bits of the CLKOUT control source register (CCSSR) can be used to specify the source for the CLKOUT pin (see Figure 1-5and Table 1-6).

NOTE: There is no internal logic to prevent glitches while changing the CLKOUT source. Also there is no provision for internally dividing down the CLKOUT frequency other than the options inherently available for selecting the CLKOUT source.

The CLKOUT pin'soutput driver is enabled/disabled through the CLKOFF bit of the CPU ST3_55 register. At hardware reset, CLKOFF is cleared to 0 so that the clock is visible for debug purposes. But within the bootloader romcode, CLKOFF is set to 1 to conserve power. After the bootloader finishes, the customer application code is free to re-enable CLKOUT. For more information on the ST3_55 register, see the TMS320C55x 3.0 CPU Reference Guide (SWPU073).

The slew rate (i.e., dV/dt) of the CLKOUT pin can be controlled by the CLKOUTSR bits in the output slew rate control register (OSRCR). This feature allows for additional power savings when the CLKOUT pin does not need to drive large loads.
