Figure 5-5 System Clock Filter Networks
The synthesizer locks when the VCO frequency is equal to f
ref
. Lock time is affected
by the filter time constant and by the amount of difference between the two comparator
inputs. Whenever a comparator input changes, the synthesizer must relock. Lock sta-
tus is shown by the SLOCK bit in SYNCR. During power-up, the MCU does not come
out of reset until the synthesizer locks. Crystal type, characteristic frequency, and lay-
out of external oscillator circuitry affect lock time.
When the clock synthesizer is used, SYNCR determines the system clock frequency
and certain operating parameters. The W and Y[5:0] bits are located in the PLL feed-
back path, enabling frequency multiplication by a factor of up to 256. When the W or
Y values change, VCO frequency changes, and there is a VCO relock delay. The SYN-
CR X bit controls a divide-by circuit that is not in the synthesizer feedback loop. When
X = 0 (reset state), a divide-by-four circuit is enabled, and the system clock frequency
is one-fourth the VCO frequency (f
VCO
). When X = 1, a divide-by-two circuit is enabled
and system clock frequency is one-half the VCO frequency (f
VCO
). There is no relock
delay when clock speed is changed by the X bit.
When a slow reference is used, one W bit and six Y bits are located in the PLL feed-
back path, enabling frequency multiplication by a factor of up to 256. The X bit is lo-
cated in the VCO clock output path to enable dividing the system clock frequency by
two without disturbing the PLL.
When using a slow reference, the clock frequency is determined by SYNCR bit set-
tings as follows:
The reset state of SYNCR ($3F00) results in a power-on f
sys
of 8.388 MHz when f
ref
is 32.768 kHz.
