9.3 External Clock Inputs
The input clock source to the PLL is an external clock oscillator at the bus frequency. The
PLL skew elimination between the CLOCKIN pin and the internal bus clock is guaranteed.
PLL skew elimination between the CLOCKIN pin and the internal bus clock is guaranteed.
9.4 Main PLL
The main PLL performs frequency multiplication and skew elimination. It allows the
processor to operate at a high internal clock frequency using a low-frequency clock input,
which has two immediate beneÞts: A lower clock input frequency reduces overall
electromagnetic interference generated by the system, and oscillating at different
frequencies eliminates the need for another oscillator to the system.
