The maximum frequency depends on the speed grade of the
device.
Note:
The counter outputs from the main PLL can have their frequency further divided by programmable dividers
external to the PLL. Transitions to a different divide value occur on the fastest output clock, one clock cycle
prior to the slowest clock’s rising edge. For example, cycle 15 of the divide-by-16 divider for the main C2
output and cycle 3 of the divide-by-4 divider for the main C0 output.
The following figure shows how each counter output from the main PLL can have its frequency further
divided by programmable post-PLL dividers. Green-colored clock gating logic is directly controlled by
software writing to a register. Orange-colored clock gating logic is controlled by hardware. Orange-colored
clock gating logic allows hardware to seamlessly transition a synchronous set of clocks, for example, all the
MPU subsystem clocks.
