Clock Generator Module (CGM)
10.1 Introduction
The CGM generates the crystal clock signal, CGMXCLK, which operates at the frequency of the crystal.
The CGM also generates the base clock signal, CGMOUT, from which the system clocks are derived.
CGMOUT is based on either the crystal clock divided by two or the phase-locked loop (PLL) clock,
CGMVCLK, divided by two. The PLL is a frequency generator designed for use with 1-MHz to 8-MHz
crystals or ceramic resonators. The PLL can generate an 8-MHz bus frequency without using high
frequency crystals.
10.2 Features
Features of the CGM include:
10.3 Functional Description
The CGM consists of three major submodules:

Crystal oscillator circuit — The crystal oscillator circuit generates the constant crystal frequency
clock, CGMXCLK.
Phase-locked loop (PLL) — The PLL generates the programmable VCO frequency clock
CGMVCLK.
Base clock selector circuit — This software-controlled circuit selects either CGMXCLK divided by
two or the VCO clock, CGMVCLK, divided by two as the base clock, CGMOUT. The system clocks
are derived from CGMOUT.
