5.2.2.5
Internal Oscillator Frequency
Selection
The system clock speed can be selected via software
using the Internal Oscillator Frequency Select bits
IRCF<3:0> of the OSCCON register.
The outputs of the 16 MHz HFINTOSC postscaler and
the LFINTOSC connect to a multiplexer (see
Figure 5-1). The Internal Oscillator Frequency Select
bits IRCF<3:0> of the OSCCON register select the
frequency output of the internal oscillators. One of the
following frequencies can be selected via software:
• 32 MHz (requires 4xPLL)
• 16 MHz
• 8 MHz
• 4 MHz
• 2 MHz
• 1 MHz
• 500 kHz (default after Reset)
• 250 kHz
• 125 kHz
• 62.5 kHz
• 31.25 kHz
• 31 kHz (LFINTOSC)
Note:
Following any Reset, the IRCF<3:0> bits
of the OSCCON register are set to ‘0111’
and the frequency selection is set to
500 kHz. The user can modify the IRCF
bits to select a different frequency.
The IRCF<3:0> bits of the OSCCON register allow
duplicate selections for some frequencies. These
duplicate choices can offer system design trade-offs.
Lower power consumption can be obtained when
changing oscillator sources for a given frequency.
Faster transition times can be obtained between
frequency changes that use the same oscillator source.
5.2.2.6
32 MHz Internal Oscillator
Frequency Selection
The Internal Oscillator Block can be used with the
4xPLL associated with the External Oscillator Block to
produce a 32 MHz internal system clock source. The
following settings are required to use the 32 MHz
internal clock source:
• The FOSC bits in Configuration Word 1 must be
set to use the INTOSC source as the device
system clock (FOSC<2:0> = 100).
• The SCS bits in the OSCCON register must be
cleared to use the clock determined by
FOSC<2:0> in Configuration Word 1
(SCS<1:0> = 00).
• The IRCF bits in the OSCCON register must be
set to the 8 MHz HFINTOSC set to use
(IRCF<3:0> = 1110).
• The SPLLEN bit in the OSCCON register must be
set to enable the 4xPLL, or the PLLEN bit of the
Configuration Word 2 must be programmed to a
‘1’.
Note:
When using the PLLEN bit of the
Configuration Word 2, the 4xPLL cannot
be disabled by software and the 8 MHz
HFINTOSC option will no longer be
available.
The 4xPLL is not available for use with the internal
oscillator when the SCS bits of the OSCCON register
are set to ‘1x’. The SCS bits must be set to ‘00’ to use
the 4xPLL with the internal oscillator.
