PowerPC 750FL RISC Microprocessor
Preliminary
5.1.2 PLL_RNG[0:1] Definitions for Dual PLL Operation
The dual PLLs on the 750FL microprocessor are configured by the PLL_CFG[0:4] and PLL_RNG[0:1]
signals. For a given SYSCLK (bus) frequency, the PLL configuration signals set the internal processor and
VCO frequency of operation. The 750FL microprocessor PLL range configuration, for dual PLL operation, is
shown in Table 5-1.

5.1.3 PLL Configuration
PLL_CFG (Table 5-2) must be set so that both SYSCLK and the core frequency are within the clock ac timing
specifications shown in Table 3-7 Clock ac Timing Specifications on page 20. In addition, the core frequency
must not exceed the limit specified in the part number, and the system must meet the required specifications.

Notes:
1. The 2×−2.5× processor to bus ratios are not supported.
2. In PLL-bypass mode, the SYSCLK input signal clocks the internal processor directly, the PLL is disabled, and the bus mode is set
for 1:1 mode operation. This mode is intended for manufacturing use only.
The ac timing specifications given in the document do not apply in PLL-bypass mode.
3. In clock-off mode, no clocking occurs inside the 750FL microprocessor regardless of the SYSCLK input.
