PIC24FJ128GC010 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
• Fast Internal RC (FRC) Oscillator
• Low-Power Internal RC (LPRC) Oscillator
The Primary Oscillator and FRC sources have the
option of using the internal USB PLL block, which
generates both the USB module clock and a separate
system clock from the 96 MHZ PLL. Refer to
Section 9.6 “Oscillator Modes and USB Operation”
for additional information.
The internal FRC provides an 8 MHz clock source. It
can optionally be reduced by the programmable clock
divider to provide a range of system clock frequencies.
The selected clock source generates the processor
and peripheral clock sources. The processor clock
source is divided by two to produce the internal instruc-
tion 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 event is selected using Con-
figuration bit settings. The Oscillator Configuration bit
settings are located in the Configuration registers in the
program memory (refer to Section 34.1 “Configuration
Bits” for further details). The Primary Oscillator
Configuration bits, POSCMD<1:0> (Configuration Word
2<1:0>), and the Initial Oscillator Select Configuration
bits, FNOSC<2:0> (Configuration Word 2<10:8>), select
the oscillator source that is used at a Power-on Reset.
The FRC Primary Oscillator with Postscaler (FRCDIV) is
the default (unprogrammed) selection. The Secondary
Oscillator (SOSC), or one of the internal oscillators, may
be chosen by programming these bit locations.
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<1:0> Configuration bits (Configuration
Word 2<7:6>) are used to jointly configure device clock
switching and the Fail-Safe Clock Monitor (FSCM).
Clock switching is enabled only when FCKSM1 is
programmed (‘0’). The FSCM is enabled only when
FCKSM<1:0> are both programmed (‘00’).
