46.4 Clock Characteristics
46.4.1 Processor Clock Characteristics
Note: 1. For DDR2 usage only, there are no limitations to LP-DDR, SDRAM and mobile SDRAM.
46.4.2 Master Clock Characteristics
The master clock is the maximum clock at which the system is able to run. It is given by the smallest value of the internal
bus clock and EBI clock.
Note: 1. For DDR2 usage only, there are no limitations to LP-DDR, SDRAM and mobile SDRAM.
46.5 Main Oscillator Characteristics
Note: 1. The C
CRYSTAL
value is specified by the crystal manufacturer. In our case, C
CRYSTAL
must be between 15 pF and 20 pF.
All parasitic capacitance, package and board, must be calculated in order to reach 15 pF (minimum targeted load for
the oscillator) by taking into account the internal load C
INT
. So, to target the minimum oscillator load of 15 pF, external
capacitance must be: 15 pF - 4 pF = 11 pF which means that 22 pF is the target value (22 pF from XIN to GND and
22 pF from XOUT to GND). If 20 pF load is targeted, the sum of pad, package, board and external capacitances must
be 20 pF - 4 pF = 16 pF which means 32 pF (32 pF from XIN to GND and 32 pF from XOUT to GND).
