PIC24FJ64GA004 FAMILY
8.0 OSCILLATOR
CONFIGURATION
The oscillator system for PIC24FJ64GA004 family
devices has the following features:
• A total of four external and internal oscillator options
as clock sources, providing 11 different clock modes
• On-chip 4x PLL to boost internal operating frequency
on select internal and external oscillator sources
• Software-controllable switching between various
clock sources
• Software-controllable postscaler for selective
clocking of CPU for system power savings
• A Fail-Safe Clock Monitor (FSCM) that detects
clock failure and permits safe application recovery
or shutdown
A simplified diagram of the oscillator system is shown
in Figure 8-1.
