Timing Parameters

Bypass Operation

When bypass operation is configured (PLLCTRL = 0xB) the master clock is derived from

the internal oscillator (input clock signal XTAL1) through the input- and output-

prescalers:

fMC = fOSC / ((PLLIDIV+1)Ã(PLLODIV+1)).

If both divider factors are selected as â1â (PLLIDIV = PLLODIV = â0â) the frequency of fMC

directly follows the frequency of fOSC so the high and low time of fMC is defined by the

duty cycle of the input clock fOSC.

The lowest master clock frequency is achieved by selecting the maximum values for both

divider factors:

fMC = fOSC / ((3+1)Ã(14+1)) = fOSC / 60.

Phase Locked Loop (PLL)

When PLL operation is configured (PLLCTRL = 11B) the on-chip phase locked loop is

enabled and provides the master clock. The PLL multiplies the input frequency by the

factor F (fMC = fOSC Ã F) which results from the input divider, the multiplication factor,

and the output divider (F = PLLMUL+1 / (PLLIDIV+1 Ã PLLODIV+1)). The PLL circuit

synchronizes the master clock to the input clock. This synchronization is done smoothly,

i.e. the master clock frequency does not change abruptly.

Due to this adaptation to the input clock the frequency of fMC is constantly adjusted so it

is locked to fOSC. The slight variation causes a jitter of fMC which also affects the duration

of individual TCMs.

The timing listed in the AC Characteristics refers to TCPs. Because fCPU is derived from

fMC, the timing must be calculated using the minimum TCP possible under the respective

circumstances.

The actual minimum value for TCP depends on the jitter of the PLL. As the PLL is

constantly adjusting its output frequency so it corresponds to the applied input frequency

(crystal or oscillator) the relative deviation for periods of more than one TCP is lower than

for one single TCP.

This is especially important for bus cycles using waitstates and e.g. for the operation of

timers, serial interfaces, etc. For all slower operations and longer periods (e.g. pulse train

generation or measurement, lower baudrates, etc.) the deviation caused by the PLL jitter

is negligible.
