Section 22 Clock Pulse Generator
This LSI has an on-chip clock pulse generator (CPG) that generates the system clock (φ) and
internal clocks. The clock pulse generator consists of an oscillator circuit, a system-clock PLL
circuit and a divider.
Figure 22.1 shows a block diagram of the clock pulse generator.

The frequency of the system clock from the oscillator can be changed by means of the system-
clock PLL circuit and divider. Frequency changes are made by software by means of settings in
the PLL control register (PLLCR).
