5.4.3 Frequency divider

The frequency divider divides the output of the system clock oscillator (f

X

) to generate various clocks.

5.5 Clock Generator Operation

The clock generator generates the following clocks and controls the operation modes of the CPU, such as the

standby mode.

• System clock f

X

• CPU clock f

CPU

• Clock to peripheral hardware

The operation of the clock generator is determined by the processor clock control register (PCC), as follows.

(a) The slow mode (1.33

µs: at 6.0 MHz operation) of the system clock is selected when the RESET signal is

generated (PCC = 02H). While a low level is being input to the RESET pin, oscillation of the system clock

is stopped.

(b) Two types of minimum instruction execution time (0.33

µs and 1.33 µs: at 6.0 MHz operation) can be

selected by the PCC setting.

(c) Two standby modes, STOP and HALT, can be used.

(d) The clock pulse for the peripheral hardware is generated by dividing the frequency of the system clock. So,

the other hardware stops when the system clock stops (except for external clock pulses).
