to use the fast RC clock while debugging.
Device emulation occurs at the speed of the processor. If it is running at low frequency
(for example 32kHz), all operations such as stepping, refreshing the watch window, etc.
are slow. However, some processors have a built-in Fast RC oscillator. If the “FRC in
debug mode” option is checked, after the application running at normal speed halts, it
switches to the faster oscillator enabling emulation and peripherals (if not frozen) to run
faster.
