IXP2800 Network Processor
Clocks and Reset
Figure 131 shows the clocks generation circuitry for the IXP2800 Network Processor. When the
chip is powered up, bypass clock will be sent to all the units. After the PLL is locked, clock unit
will switch all units from bypass clock to a fixed frequency clock which is generated by dividing
PLL OUTPUT FREQUENCY by 16. Once Clock Control CSR is written, clock unit will replace
fixed frequency clock with the defined clocks for different units.
