FIXED-POINT DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSOR
SPRS080C – MARCH 1999 – REVISED APRIL 2000
software-programmable phase-locked loop (PLL) (continued)
The software-programmable PLL features a high level of flexibility, and includes a clock scaler that provides
various clock multiplier ratios, capability to directly enable and disable the PLL, and a PLL lock timer that can
be used to delay switching to PLL clocking mode of the device until lock is achieved. Devices that have a built-in
software-programmable PLL can be configured in one of two clock modes:
D
D
PLL mode. The input clock (CLKIN) is multiplied by 1 of 31 possible ratios. These ratios are achieved using
the PLL circuitry.
DIV (divider) mode. The input clock is divided by 2 or 4. Note that when DIV mode is used, the PLL can be
completely disabled in order to minimize power dissipation.
The software-programmable PLL is controlled by the 16-bit memory-mapped (address 0058h) clock mode
register (CLKMD) in subsystem A. The CLKMD register is used to define the clock configuration of the PLL clock
module.
