Designing the Clocking Subsystem

In addition to the power subsystem, the clocking subsystem needs to be designed to provide appropriate clocks to all ICs in the system. These clocks can be created by pairing crystals with internal oscillators within the system ICs, or they can be created by a separate clock generator. For your design, see the information below on designing the clocking subsystem.

  • Key Considerations
    • The device operation requires a 32k optional crystal and HF crystal with either 19.2,24,25,26 MHz reference clock for operation.
    • A 32.768-kHz clock input is an optional for the RTC.
    • For more details, see the Clocking sections of the device-specific data sheet and TRM.
