SYSTEM CLOCK GENERATOR
The System Clock can be generated from an external clock
signal, or from the internal crystal oscillator. For the latter
case, a 32-kHz crystal is used in conjunction with the in-
ternal crystal oscillator. The system clock generator in-
cludes a Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) circuit to derive a high-
frequency System Clock from the low-frequency crystal os-
cillator. The benefits of using a low-frequency crystal are
lower system cost, lower power consumption and lower
EMI.
The Z893x3 supports several low-power clock modes to op-
timize power consumption. Total power consumption de-
pends on System Clock frequency, and which oscillators
and peripherals are enabled.

Modes of Operation
The various modes of clock operation are selected by writ-
ing to the appropriate bits and fields of the Clock Control
Register, Bank15/EXT5. The mode of operation can be
switched dynamically during program execution.
Power-up and Reset (Default)
At power-up, and following a reset or Sleep Mode Recov-
ery, System Clock Select = 0, therefore system clock =
CLKI. The XTAL Oscillator is running, so CLKI may be
provided by a crystal, as depicted, or by an external clock
(not shown). The VCO is running to minimize the time re-
quired to switch the system clock to PLL Out.
External Clock Direct
In this mode, an external clock on CLKI provides the Sys-
tem Clock. CLKO is not connected. System Clock Select
= 0. The PLL is not used. The XTAL oscillator and VCO
are both stopped to reduce power consumption.
Crystal Oscillator DIrect
In this mode of operation, the XTAL Oscillator is running,
and an external crystal provides a 32-kHz (typical) clock
at CLKI. System Clock Select = 0, so the System Clock is
the frequency at CLKI (32 kHz). This mode requires less
power than running at a high-frequency clock rate. The
VCO may be stopped to conserve even more power, or left
running for rapid switching (wake up) to a high-frequency
PLL generated clock. Whenever the PLL circuit is enabled,
Stop VCO = 0, and a software delay of 10 ms must be ob-
served before switching System Clock from CLKI to PLL
Out. As a result, the PLL has time to stabilize.
PLL Clock
An external 32-kHz crystal, together with the on-chip
XTAL oscillator, provides the PLL input. The VCO gen-
erates the System Clock. A low-pass filter must be connect-
ed to LPF as depicted. The XTAL oscillator and VCO are
both running, and System Clock = PLL Out (System Clock
Select = 1). The frequency generated by the PLL is deter-
