8.4.1 Clock Enable Circuit
The clock enable circuit is used to enable the internal clock (ICLK) or
external clock (ECLK). The clock enable circuit generates an ICG stop
(ICGSTOP) signal which stops all clocks (ICLK, ECLK, and the low-
frequency base clock, IBASE) low. ICGSTOP is set and the ICG is
disabled in stop mode.
The internal clock enable signal (ICGEN) turns on the internal clock
generator which generates ICLK. ICGEN is set (active) whenever the
ICGON bit is set and the ICGSTOP signal is clear. When ICGEN is clear,
ICLK and IBASE are both low.
The external clock enable signal (ECGEN) turns on the external clock
generator which generates ECLK. ECGEN is set (active) whenever the
ECGON bit is set and the ICGSTOP signal is clear. When ECGEN is
clear, ECLK is low.
