Managing Core and System Clocks
The processor produces a multiplication of the clock input provided on
the
CLKIN
pin to generate the PLL
VCO
clock. This
VCO
clock is divided to
produce the core clock (
CCLK
) and the system clock (
SCLK
). The core clock
is based on a divider ratio that is programmed via the
CSEL
bit settings in
the
PLL_DIV
register. The system clock is based on a divider ratio that is
programmed via the
SSEL
bit settings in the
PLL_DIV
register. For detailed
information about how to set and change
CCLK
and
SCLK
frequencies, see
Chapter 20, “Dynamic Power Management”
.
Configuring and Servicing Interrupts
A variety of interrupts are available. They include both core and periph-
eral interrupts. The processor assigns default core priorities to system-level
interrupts. However, these system interrupts can be remapped via the sys-
tem interrupt assignment registers (
SIC_IARx
). For more information, see
Chapter 4, “System Interrupts”
.
The processor core supports nested and non-nested interrupts, as well as
self-nested interrupts. For explanations of the various modes of servicing
events, please see the ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming
Reference Manual.
Semaphores
Semaphores provide a mechanism for communication between multiple
processors or processes/threads running in the same system. They are used
to coordinate resource sharing. For instance, if a process is using a particu-
lar resource and another process requires that same resource, it must wait
until the first process signals that it is no longer using the resource. This
signalling is accomplished via semaphores.
