Errata Description
1. Description:
There are three speed grades of the E98S/F44E/G68P silicon of the DSP56156: 40 MHz,
50 MHz, and 60 MHz. These three speed grades are tested as shown in the table below.

The PLL is functional and tested at 60 MHz for the speed grades.
The codec is functional and tested with a 20 MHz external clock, 0 dB gain on the A/D
input and D/A output, and 128 decimation ratio. The A/D is tested with a 0.4 Vrms signal at 1.5 KHz and the D/A with a digitally generated sine wave 50% full scale at 2 KHz.
Under those conditions, the SNR and THD of the A/D and D/A are better than 65 dB.
2. Description:
The BS signal is being deasserted before TA is deasserted if the BCR is programmed for
one or more wait states. In this case, the BS signal ignores the TA signal and is deasserted
under control of the BCR even though TA is still active and should cause BS to remain
active.
This problem occurs at:
E98S
F44E
G68P
fOSC = 60 MHz
TJ ≥ 25 °C
VCC ≥ 5 V
This problem has not been fully characterized. Although it has not been reported on parts
rated at less than 60 MHz, it has been seen at 50 MHz at 5 V and may be appear at other
speeds.
Workaround: Insert wait states using either the BCR or the TA signal, but not both.

3. Description:
Freescale Semiconductor, Inc...
The lock bit detection circuitry in the PLL fails to operate correctly in an overdamped system.
E98S
F44E
G68P
Workaround: Use a smaller value capacitor for the SXFC capacitor connection to GND.
However, reducing this capacitor value increases PLL jitter. If the resulting jitter level is
unacceptable, then switch to a larger capacitor once the lock bit has been asserted. The
table below lists the recommended SXFC capacitor values to utilize the lock bit detection
circuitry.

390 pF
If this second (hardware) fix is not possible within specific design constraints, then, instead of using the operating software to poll the lock bit, insert a simple 5 ms wait into
the operating software to allow the PLL to lock before enabling the PLL to the core.
NOTES
1. An over-bar (i.e., xxxx) indicates an active-low signal.
2. The letters seen to the right of the errata tell which DSP56156 mask numbers apply.
