PIC24FV32KA304 FAMILY
9.1 CPU Clocking Scheme
The system clock source can be provided by one of
four sources:
• Primary Oscillator (POSC) on the OSCI and OSCO
pins
• Secondary Oscillator (SOSC) on the SOSCI and
SOSCO pins
The PIC24FV32KA304 family devices consist of
two types of secondary oscillator:
- High-Power Secondary Oscillator
- Low-Power Secondary Oscillator
These can be selected by using the SOSCSEL
(FOSC<5>) bit.
• Fast Internal RC (FRC) Oscillator
- 8 MHz FRC Oscillator
- 500 kHz Lower Power FRC Oscillator
• Low-Power Internal RC (LPRC) Oscillator with two
modes:
- High-Power/High Accuracy mode
- Low-Power/Low Accuracy mode
The primary oscillator and 8 MHz FRC sources have the
option of using the internal 4x PLL. The frequency of the
FRC clock source can optionally be reduced by the pro-
grammable clock divider. The selected clock source
generates the processor and peripheral clock sources.
The processor clock source is divided by two to produce
the internal instruction cycle clock, FCY. In this
document, the instruction cycle clock is also denoted by
FOSC/2. The internal instruction cycle clock, FOSC/2, can
be provided on the OSCO I/O pin for some operating
modes of the primary oscillator.
9.2 Initial Configuration on POR
The oscillator source (and operating mode) that is used
at a device Power-on Reset (POR) event is selected
using Configuration bit settings. The oscillator
Configuration bit settings are located in the Configuration
registers in the program memory (For more information,
see Section 26.1 “Configuration Bits”). The Primary
Oscillator Configuration bits, POSCMD<1:0>
(FOSC<1:0>), and the Initial Oscillator Select
Configuration bits, FNOSC<2:0> (FOSCSEL<2:0>),
select the oscillator source that is used at a POR. The
FRC Primary Oscillator with Postscaler (FRCDIV) is the
default (unprogrammed) selection. The secondary
oscillator, or one of the internal oscillators, may be
chosen by programming these bit locations. The EC
mode frequency range Configuration bits,
POSCFREQ<1:0> (FOSC<4:3>), optimize power
consumption when running in EC mode. The default
configuration is “frequency range is greater than
8 MHz”.
The Configuration bits allow users to choose between
the various clock modes, shown in Table 9-1.
9.2.1
CLOCK SWITCHING MODE
CONFIGURATION BITS
The FCKSM Configuration bits (FOSC<7:6>) are used
jointly to configure device clock switching and the
FSCM. Clock switching is enabled only when FCKSM1
is programmed (‘0’). The FSCM is enabled only when
FCKSM<1:0> are both programmed (‘00’).
