1.6.4 PLL and Clock Oscillator

The clock generator in the DSP56300 core comprises two main blocks: the PLL, which performs

clock input division, frequency multiplication, and skew elimination; and the clock generator,

which performs low-power division and clock pulse generation. These features allow you to:

Change the low-power divide factor without losing the lock

Output a clock with skew elimination

The PLL allows the processor to operate at a high internal clock frequency using a low-frequency

clock input, a feature that offers two immediate benefits:

A lower-frequency clock input reduces the overall electromagnetic interference generated

by a system.

The ability to oscillate at different frequencies reduces costs by eliminating the need to

add additional oscillators to a system.
