dsPIC33F
8.0 OSCILLATOR
CONFIGURATION
The dsPIC33F oscillator system provides:
• Various external and internal oscillator options as
clock sources
• An on-chip PLL to scale the internal operating
frequency to the required system clock frequency
• The internal FRC oscillator 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.
A simplified diagram of the oscillator system is shown
in Figure 8-1.
