2.3.3.1.2 AM64x SoC Clock

Output Y0 from the clock buffer LMK1C1103PWR is used as a reference clock for the SoC on SKEVM. An optional 25 MHz crystal (XRCGB25M000F3M00R0) is also provided for driving the SoC. Selection of clock for the SoC is done using resistors. By default an output from the SoC_CLKIN clock buffer is provided to the SoC. For clock source selection, see Table 2-3.
