Bits 7:0 – DIV[7:0] CPU Clock Division Factor
These bits define the division ratio of the main clock prescaler related to the CPU clock domain
(CPUDIV).
To ensure correct operation, frequencies must be selected so that f
HS
≥ f
CPU
(i.e. CPUDIV ≥ HSDIV).
Frequencies must never exceed the specified maximum frequency for each clock domain.
