Oscillator Module (OSC)
11.1 Introduction
The oscillator (OSC) module is used to provide a stable clock source for the MCU system and bus.
The OSC shares its pins with general-purpose input/output (I/O) port pins. See
Figure 11-1
for port
location of these shared pins. The OSC2EN bit is located in the port A pull enable register (PTAPUEN)
on this MCU. See
Chapter 12 Input/Output Ports (PORTS)
for information on PTAPUEN register.
11.2 Features
The bus clock frequency is one fourth of any of these clock source options:
1.
Internal oscillator: An internally generated, fixed frequency clock, trimmable to
±
0.4%. There are
four choices for the internal oscillator, 25.6 MHz, 12.8 MHz, 8 MHz or 4 MHz. The 12.8-MHz
internal oscillator is the default option out of reset.
2.
External oscillator: An external clock that can be driven directly into OSC1.
3.
External RC: A built-in oscillator module (RC oscillator) that requires an external R connection only.
The capacitor is internal to the chip.
4.
External crystal: A built-in XTAL oscillator that requires an external crystal or ceramic-resonator.
There are three crystal frequency ranges supported, 8–32 MHz, 1–8 MHz, and 32–100 kHz.
11.3 Functional Description
The oscillator contains these major subsystems:
Internal oscillator circuit
Internal or external clock switch control
External clock circuit
External crystal circuit
External RC clock circuit
