PLL Management

This group contains functions and definitions related to configuring and enabling/disabling on-chip PLLs.

A PLL will take an input signal (the source), optionally divide the frequency by a configurable divider, and then multiply the frequency by a configurable multiplier.

Some devices don't support input dividers; specifying any other divisor than 1 on these devices will result in an assertion failure. Other devices may have various restrictions to the frequency range of the input and output signals.

Example: Setting up PLL0 with default parameters

The following example shows how to configure and enable PLL0 using the default parameters specified using the configuration symbols listed above.

To configure, enable PLL0 using the default parameters and to disable a specific feature like Wide Bandwidth Mode (a UC3A3-specific PLL option.), you can use this initialization process.

struct pll_config pllcfg;
if (pll_is_locked(pll_id)) {
return; // Pll already running
}
pll_enable_source(CONFIG_PLL0_SOURCE);
pll_config_defaults(&pllcfg, 0);
pll_enable(&pllcfg, 0);

When the last function call returns, PLL0 is ready to be used as the main system clock source.

Configuration Symbols

Each PLL has a set of default parameters determined by the following configuration symbols in the application's configuration file:

These configuration symbols determine the result of calling pll_config_defaults() and pll_get_default_rate().

)
inlinestatic

The PLL options PLL_OPT_VCO_RANGE_LOW and PLL_OPT_OUTPUT_DIV will be set automatically based on the calculated target frequency.

Initialize PLL configuration from standard parameters.

Note
This function may be defined inline because it is assumed to be called very few times, and usually with constant parameters. Inlining it will in such cases reduce the code size significantly.
Parameters
cfgThe PLL configuration to be initialized.
srcThe oscillator to be used as input to the PLL.
divPLL input divider.
mulPLL loop divider (i.e. multiplier).
Returns
A configuration which will make the PLL run at (mul / div) times the frequency of src
