21.2.3 LP OSCILLATOR CONTROL
Enabling the LP oscillator is controlled with two
elements:
1. The current oscillator group bits, COSC<1:0>.
2. The LPOSCEN bit (OSCCON register).
The LP oscillator is on (even during Sleep mode) if
LPOSCEN = 1. The LP oscillator is the device clock if:
• COSC<1:0> = 00 (LP selected as main oscillator)
and
• LPOSCEN = 1
Keeping the LP oscillator on at all times allows for a
fast switch to the 32 kHz system clock for lower power
operation. Returning to the faster main oscillator still
requires a start-up time.
21.2.4 PHASE LOCKED LOOP (PLL)
The PLL multiplies the clock which is generated by the
primary oscillator. The PLL is selectable to have either
gains of x4, x8 or x16. Input and output frequency
ranges are summarized in Table 21-3.

16 MHz-40 MHz
x8
32 MHz-80 MHz
x16 64 MHz-120 MHz
The PLL features a lock output which is asserted when
the PLL enters a phase locked state. Should the loop
fall out of lock (e.g., due to noise), the lock signal is
rescinded. The state of this signal is reflected in the
read-only LOCK bit in the OSCCON register.
21.2.5 FAST RC OSCILLATOR (FRC)
The FRC oscillator is a fast (7.37 MHz, +/-2% nominal),
internal RC oscillator. This oscillator is intended to
provide reasonable device operating speeds without
the use of an external crystal, ceramic resonator or RC
network. Using the x4, x8 and x16 PLL options, higher
operational frequencies can be generated.
The dsPIC30F operates from the FRC oscillator when-
ever the Current Oscillator Selection (COSC<1:0>)
control bits in the OSCCON register
(OSCCON<13:12>) are set to ‘01’.
There are four tuning bits (TUN<3:0>) for the FRC
oscillator in the OSCCON register. These tuning bits
allow the FRC oscillator frequency to be adjusted as
close to 7.37 MHz as possible, depending on the
device operating conditions. The FRC oscillator
frequency has been calibrated during factory testing.
Table 21-4 describes the adjustment range of the
TUN<3:0> bits.

21.2.6 LOW-POWER RC OSCILLATOR
(LPRC)
The LPRC oscillator is a component of the Watchdog
Timer (WDT) and oscillates at a nominal frequency of
512 kHz. The LPRC oscillator is the clock source for
the Power-up Timer (PWRT) circuit, WDT and clock
monitor circuits. It may also be used to provide a low-
frequency clock source option for applications where
power consumption is critical and timing accuracy is
not required.
The LPRC oscillator is always enabled at a Power-on
Reset because it is the clock source for the PWRT.
After the PWRT expires, the LPRC oscillator remains
on if one of the following is true:
• The Fail-Safe Clock Monitor is enabled
• The WDT is enabled
• The LPRC oscillator is selected as the system
clock via the COSC<1:0> control bits in the
OSCCON register
If one of the above conditions is not true, the LPRC
shuts off after the PWRT expires.
Note 1: OSC2 pin function is determined by the
Primary Oscillator mode selection
(FPR<3:0>).
2: Note that OSC1 pin cannot be used as an
I/O pin, even if the secondary oscillator or
an internal clock source is selected at all
times.
