B.4.2 Oscillator
The device features an internal Colpitts and Pierce oscillator. The selection of Colpitts oscillator or Pierce
oscillator/external clock depends on the XCLKS signal which is sampled during reset. Pierce
oscillator/external clock mode allows the input of a square wave. Before asserting the oscillator to the
internal system clocks the quality of the oscillation is checked for each start from either power-on, STOP
or oscillator fail. t
CQOUT
specifies the maximum time before switching to the internal self clock mode after
POR or STOP if a proper oscillation is not detected. The quality check also determines the minimum
oscillator start-up time t
UPOSC
. The device also features a clock monitor. A Clock Monitor Failure is
asserted if the frequency of the incoming clock signal is below the Assert Frequency f
CMFA.
