ADSP-BF504/ADSP-BF504F/ADSP-BF506F
All on-chip peripherals are clocked by the system clock (SCLK).
The system clock frequency is programmable by means of the
SSEL3–0 bits of the PLL_DIV register. The values programmed
into the SSEL fields define a divide ratio between the PLL output
(VCO) and the system clock. SCLK divider values are 1 through
15. Table 6 illustrates typical system clock ratios.
Note that the divisor ratio must be chosen to limit the system
clock frequency to its maximum of f
SCLK
. The SSEL value can be
changed dynamically without any PLL lock latencies by writing
the appropriate values to the PLL divisor register (PLL_DIV).
The core clock (CCLK) frequency can also be dynamically
changed by means of the CSEL1–0 bits of the PLL_DIV register.
Supported CCLK divider ratios are 1, 2, 4, and 8, as shown in
Table 7. This programmable core clock capability is useful for
fast core frequency modifications.
The maximum CCLK frequency both depends on the part’s
speed grade and depends on the applied V
DDINT
voltage. See
Table 14 for details. The maximal system clock rate (SCLK)
depends on the applied V
DDINT
and V
DDEXT
voltages (see
Table 16).
BOOTING MODES
The processor has several mechanisms (listed in Table 8) for
automatically loading internal and external memory after a
reset. The boot mode is defined by the BMODE input pins dedi-
cated to this purpose. There are two categories of boot modes.
In master boot modes, the processor actively loads data from
parallel or serial memories. In slave boot modes, the processor
receives data from external host devices.
The boot modes listed in Table 8 provide a number of mecha-
nisms for automatically loading the processor’s internal and
external memories after a reset. By default, all boot modes use
the slowest meaningful configuration settings. Default settings
can be altered via the initialization code feature at boot time.
Some boot modes require a boot host wait (HWAIT) signal,
which is a GPIO output signal that is driven and toggled by the
boot kernel at boot time. If pulled high through an external pull-
up resistor, the HWAIT signal behaves active high and will be
driven low when the processor is ready for data. Conversely,
when pulled low, HWAIT is driven high when the processor is
ready for data. When the boot sequence completes, the HWAIT
pin can be used for other purposes. The BMODE pins of the
reset configuration register, sampled during power-on resets
and software-initiated resets, implement the modes shown in
Table 8.
• IDLE State / No Boot (BMODE = 0x0)—In this mode, the
boot kernel transitions the processor into Idle state. The
processor can then be controlled through JTAG for recov-
ery, debug, or other functions.
• Boot from stacked parallel flash in 16-bit asynchronous
mode (BMODE = 0x1)—In this mode, conservative timing
parameters are used to communicate with the flash device.
The boot kernel communicates with the flash device
asynchronously.
• Boot from stacked parallel flash in 16-bit synchronous
mode (BMODE = 0x2)—In this mode, fast timing parame-
ters are used to communicate with the flash device. The
boot kernel configures the flash device for synchronous
burst communication and boots from the flash
synchronously.
