Figure 13 Digital Clock Generation Schemes
The CMX885 includes a 2-pin crystal oscillator circuit. This can either be configured as an oscillator, as
shown in section 5, or the XTAL input can be driven by an externally generated clock. The crystal (Xtal)
source frequency can go up to 12.288MHz (clock source frequency up to 24.576MHz), but by default, a
3.6864MHz Xtal is assumed for the functionality provided in the CMX885.
7.11.1 Main Clock Operation
A PLL is used to create the main clock (MainCLK - nominally 24.576MHz) for the internal sections of the
CMX885. At the same time, other internal clocks are generated by division of either the Xtal Reference
Clock or the Main Clock. These internal clocks are used for determining the sample rates and conversion
times of A-to-D and D-to-A converters, running a General Purpose Timer, the signal processing block. In
particular, it should be noted that in Idle mode the setting of the GP Timer divider directly affects the C-
BUS latency (with the default values this is nominally 250μs).
