9.0 OSCILLATOR
CONFIGURATION
The oscillator system provides:
• External and Internal Oscillator Options as Clock
Sources
• An On-Chip Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) to Scale
the Internal Operating frequency to the Required
System Clock Frequency
• An Internal FRC Oscillator that can also be used
with the PLL, thereby allowing Full-Speed Operation
without any External Clock Generation Hardware
• Clock Switching Between Various Clock Sources
• Programmable Clock Postscaler for System
Power Savings
• A Fail-Safe Clock Monitor (FSCM) that Detects
Clock Failure and takes Fail-Safe Measures
• A Clock Control Register (OSCCON)
• Nonvolatile Configuration bits for Main Oscillator
Selection
• Auxiliary PLL for ADC and PWM
A simplified diagram of the oscillator system is shown
in Figure 9-1.
Note 1: This data sheet summarizes the features
