9.1 Types of the Clock Generation Circuit
The MCU has four on-chip clock generation circuits to generate system clock signals.
• Main clock oscillation circuit
• Sub clock oscillation circuit
• On-chip oscillator
• PLL frequency synthesizer
Table 9.1 lists the specifications of the clock generation circuit. Figure 9.1 shows a block diagram of the clock
generation circuit. Figures 9.2 to 9.8 show clock-associated registers.
