Oscillator 7.2 CPU CLOCKING The system clock (FOSC) source can be provided by one of the following options: • • • • • • Primary Oscillator (POSC) on the OSC1 and OSC2 pins Secondary Oscillator (SOSC) on the SOSCI and SOSCO pins Internal Fast RC (FRC) Oscillator with optional clock divider Internal Low-Power RC (LPRC) Oscillator POSC with PLL Internal FRC Oscillator with PLL The FOSC source is divided by 2 to produce the internal instruction cycle clock. In this document, the instruction cycle clock is denoted by FCY. The timing diagram in Figure 7-2 shows the relationship among FOSC, instruction cycle clock (FCY), and the Program Counter (PC).

DS70186E-page 7-3 Oscillator FCY can be output on the OSC2 I/O pin if the Primary Oscillator mode or the High Speed Oscillator (HS) mode is not selected as the clock source (see Section 7.5 “Primary Oscillator (Posc)”). 7 dsPIC33F/PIC24H Family Reference Manual 7.3 OSCILLATOR CONFIGURATION REGISTERS Oscillator Configuration registers are located in the program memory space, and are not Special Function Registers (SFRs). These two registers are mapped into program memory space and are programmed at the time of device programming. • FOSCSEL: Oscillator Source Selection Register FOSCSEL selects the initial oscillator source and start-up option. FOSCSEL contains the following Configuration bit: - FNOSC<2:0> Configuration bits in the Oscillator Source Selection (FOSCSEL<2:0>) register determine the clock source that is used at a Power-on Reset (POR). Thereafter, the clock source can be changed between permissible clock sources with clock switching. The Internal FRC Oscillator with postscaler (FRCDIVN) is the default (unprogrammed) selection. • FOSC: Oscillator Configuration Register FOSC configures the Primary Oscillator mode, OSC2 pin function, peripheral pin select, and the fail-safe and clock switching modes. FOSC contains the following Configuration bits: - POSCMD (FOSC<1:0>) Configuration bits select the operation mode of the POSC. - OSCIOFNC (FOSC<2>) Configuration bit selects the OSC2 pin function, except in HS or Medium-Speed Oscillator (XT) mode. If OSCIOFNC is unprogrammed (‘1’), the FCY clock is output on the OSC2 pin. If OSCIOFNC is programmed (‘0’), the OSC2 pin becomes a general purpose I/O pin. Table 7-1 lists the configuration settings that select the device oscillator source and operating mode at a POR.

Section 7. Oscillator 7.5 PRIMARY OSCILLATOR (POSC) The POSC is available on the OSC1 and OSC2 pins of the dsPIC33F/PIC24H device family. This connection enables an external crystal (or ceramic resonator) to provide the clock to the device. Optionally, it can be used with the internal PLL to boost the FOSC to 80 MHz for 40 MIPS execution. The POSC provides the following modes of operation: • Medium-Speed Oscillator (XT Mode) XT mode is a medium-gain, medium-frequency mode that is used to work with crystal frequencies of 3.5-10 MHz. • High-Speed Oscillator (HS Mode) HS mode is a high-gain, high-frequency mode that is used to work with crystal frequencies of 10-40 MHz. 7 • External Clock Source Operation (EC Mode) The FNOSC<2:0> Configuration bits in the Oscillator Source Selection register (FOSCSEL<2:0>) specify the POSC clock source at a POR. The POSCMD<1:0> Configuration bits in the Oscillator Configuration register (FOSC<1:0>) specify the Primary Oscillator mode. Table 7-2 shows the options selected by specific bit configurations, which are programmed at the time of device programming.

DS70186E-page 7-13 Oscillator If the on-chip oscillator is not used, EC mode allows the internal oscillator to be bypassed. The device clocks are generated from an external source (DC-40 MHz) and input on the OSC1 pin. dsPIC33F/PIC24H Family Reference Manual The optimum load capacitance (CL) for a given crystal is specified by the crystal manufacturer. CL can be calculated as shown in Equation 7-1. Equation 7-1: Crystal Load Capacitance CL = CS + C1 x C2 C1 + C2 Where: Cs is the stray capacitance. Assuming C1 = C2, Equation 7-2 gives the capacitor value (C1, C2) for a given load and stray capacitance. Equation 7-2: External Capacitor for Crystal C1 = C2 = 2 x (CL – CS) For additional information on crystal oscillators and their operation, refer to 7.14 “Related Application Notes”. 7.5.1 Oscillator Start-up Time As the device voltage increases from VSS, the oscillator will start its oscillations. The time required for the oscillator to start oscillating depends on many factors. These include: • • • • • • • • • Crystal and resonator frequency Capacitor values used Device VDD rise time System temperature Series resistor value and type if used Oscillator mode selection of device (selects the gain of the internal oscillator inverter) Crystal quality Oscillator circuit layout System noise Figure 7-4 shows a plot of a typical oscillator and resonator start-up. Figure 7-4: Example Oscillator and Resonator Start-up Characteristics Maximum VDD of System Device VDD VIH Voltage VIL 0V Crystal Start-up Time Time To ensure that a crystal oscillator (or ceramic resonator) has started and stabilized, an Oscillator Start-up Timer (OST) is provided with the POSC and SOSC. The OST is a simple 10-bit counter that counts 1024 cycles before releasing the oscillator clock to the rest of the system. This time-out period is denoted as TOST. DS70186E-page 7-14 © 2007-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. Section 7. Oscillator The amplitude of the oscillator signal must reach the VIL and VIH thresholds for the oscillator pins before the OST can begin to count cycles. The TOST interval is required every time the oscillator restarts (e.g., on a POR, BOR and wake-up from Sleep mode). When the POSC is enabled, it takes a finite amount of time to start oscillating. This delay is denoted as TOSCD. After TOSCD, the OST timer takes 1024 clock cycles (TOST) to release the clock. The total delay for the clock to be ready is TOSCD + TOST. If the PLL is used, an additional delay is required for the PLL to lock, see 7.7 “Phase-Locked Loop (PLL)”. POSC start-up behavior is illustrated in Figure 7-5, indicating where the CPU begins toggling an I/O pin when it starts execution after the TOSCD + TOST interval. Figure 7-5: 7 Oscillator Start-up Characteristics Oscillator 7.5.2 POSC Pin Functionality The POSC pins (OSC1 and OSC2) can be used for other functions when the oscillator is not being used. POSCMD<1:0> Configuration bits in the Oscillator Configuration register (FOSC<1:0>) determine the oscillator pin function. The OSCIOFNC bit (FOSC<2>) determines the OSC2 pin function.

Section 7. Oscillator 7.6 INTERNAL FAST RC (FRC) OSCILLATOR The Internal FRC Oscillator provides a nominal 7.37 MHz clock without requiring an external crystal or ceramic resonator, which results in system cost savings for applications that do not require a precise clock reference. The application software can tune the frequency of the oscillator from -12% to +11.625% (30 kHz steps) of the nominal frequency value using the FRC Oscillator Tuning bits (TUN<5:0>) in the FRC Oscillator Tuning register (OSCTUN<5:0>). Note 1: Refer to the specific device data sheet for the accuracy of the FRC clock frequency over temperature and voltage variations. 2: The FRC Oscillator Tuning bits (TUN<5:0>) should not be changed dynamically when operating in internal FRC with PLL. To change the FRC Oscillator Tuning bits: The Internal FRC Oscillator starts up instantly. Unlike a crystal oscillator, which can take several milliseconds to begin oscillation, the Internal FRC Oscillator starts oscillating immediately. The Initial Oscillator Source Selection Configuration bits (FNOSC<2:0>) in the Oscillator Source Selection register (FOSCSEL<2:0>) select the FRC clock source. The FRC clock source options at the time of a POR are shown in Table 7-4. The Configuration bits are programmed at the time of device programming.

The postscaler is controlled by the Internal FRC Oscillator Postscaler bits (FRCDIV<2:0>) in the Clock Divisor register (CLKDIV<10:8>), which allow eight settings, from 1:1-1:256, to be chosen, as shown in Table 7-5. Table 7-5: Internal FRC Oscillator Postscaler Settings FRCDIV<2:0> Value 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111 Internal FRC Oscillator Settings FRC divide by 1 (default) FRC divide by 2 FRC divide by 4 FRC divide by 8 FRC divide by 16 FRC divide by 32 FRC divide by 64 FRC divide by 256 Optionally, the FRC postscaler output can be used with the internal PLL to boost FOSC to 80 MHz for 40 MIPS instruction cycle execution speed. Note: The FRC divider should not be changed dynamically when operating in Internal FRC with a PLL. To change the FRC divider: 1. Switch the clock to non-PLL mode (for example, Internal FRC). 2.

TLOCK is applied when the PLL is selected as the clock source at a POR, or during a clock switching operation. The value of TLOCK is relative to the time at which the clock is available to the PLL input. For example, with the POSC, TLOCK starts after the OST delay. Refer to 7.5.1 “Oscillator Start-up Time” for more information about oscillator start-up delay. Refer to the specific device data sheet for information about typical TLOCK values. The LOCK bit in the Oscillator Control register (OSCCON<5>) is a read-only Status bit that indicates the lock status of the PLL. The LOCK bit is cleared at a POR, and on a clock switch operation, if the PLL is selected as the destination clock source. The LOCK bit remains clear when any clock source that is not using a PLL is selected. After a clock switch event in which a PLL is enabled, it is a good practice to wait for the LOCK bit to be set before executing other code. Note: 7.7.2.1 The PLLPRE bits and PLLDIV bits should not be changed when operating in PLL mode. You must clock switch to non-PLL mode (e.g., Internal FRC) to make the necessary changes, and then clock switch back to PLL mode. SETUP FOR USING THE PLL WITH THE POSC The following process is used to set up the PLL to operate the device at 40 MIPS with a 10 MHz external crystal: 1. To execute instructions at 40 MHz, ensure that the required system clock frequency is: FOSC = 2 x FCY = 80 MHz 2. 3. Ensure that the default Reset values of PLLPRE, PLLPOST and PLLDIV meet the PLL and user requirements. If the PLL and user requirements are met – directly configure the FNOSC<2:0> bits (FOSCSEL<2:0>) to use the POSC with PLL at a POR. If the PLL and user requirements are not met – follow these steps: a) b) c) d) e) DS70186E-page 7-20 Select the PLL postscaler to meet the VCO output frequency requirement (100 < FVCO < 200 MHz). Select the PLL prescaler to meet the PFD input frequency requirement (0.8 < FREF < 8 MHz). Select the PLL feedback divisor to generate the required VCO output frequency based on the PFD input frequency. Configure the FNOSC<2:0> bits (FOSCSEL<2:0>) to select a clock source without the PLL (e.g., Internal FRC) at a POR. In the main program, change the PLL prescaler, PLL postscaler, and PLL feedback divisor values to the values derived in the previous steps, and then perform a clock switch to the PLL mode. © 2007-2012 Microchip Technology Inc.

To execute instruction at 40 MHz, ensure that the system clock frequency is: FOSC = 2 x FCY = 80 MHz 2. 3. Ensure that the default Reset values of PLLPRE, PLLPOST and PLLDIV meet the PLL and user requirements.

Section 7. Oscillator 7.8 SECONDARY OSCILLATOR (SOSC) The Secondary Oscillator (SOSC) enables a 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator to be attached to the dsPIC33F/PIC24H device as a secondary crystal clock source for low-power operation. It uses the SOSCI and SOSCO pins. The SOSC can also drive Timer1 for Real-Time Clock (RTC) applications. Note: 7.8.1 The SOSC is sometimes referred to as the Low-Power Secondary Oscillator due to its low-power capabilities. However, this oscillator should not be confused with the LPRC Oscillator. 7 Secondary Oscillator for System Clock The SOSC is enabled as the system clock when: When the SOSC is not being used to provide the system clock, or the device enters Sleep mode, the SOSC is disabled to save power. 7.8.2 Secondary Oscillator Start-up Delay When the SOSC is enabled, it takes a finite amount of time to start oscillating. Refer to 7.5.1 “Oscillator Start-up Time” for details. 7.8.3 Continuous Secondary Oscillator Operation Optionally, you can leave the SOSC running continuously. The SOSC is always enabled if the Secondary Oscillator Enable bit (LPOSCEN) is set in the Oscillator Control register (OSCCON<1>). There are two reasons to leave the SOSC running. • First, keeping the SOSC always on allows a fast switch to the 32 kHz system clock for lower-power operation, since returning to the faster main oscillator still requires an oscillator start-up time if it is a crystal type source (see 7.5.1 “Oscillator Start-up Time”). • Second, the oscillator should remain on continuously when Timer1 is used as an RTC. Note: In Sleep mode, all clock sources (the POSC, Internal FRC Oscillator, and LPRC Oscillator) are shut down, with the exception of the SOSC. The SOSC can be active in Sleep mode if the Secondary Oscillator Enable bit (LPOSCEN) is set in the Oscillator Control register (OSCCON<1>). © 2007-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. DS70186E-page 7-23 Oscillator • Initial Oscillator Source Selection Configuration bits (FNOSC<2:0>) in the Oscillator Source Selection register (FOSCSEL<2:0>) are appropriately set to select the SOSC at a POR • User application initiates a clock switch to the SOSC for low-power operation dsPIC33F/PIC24H Family Reference Manual 7.9 LOW-POWER RC (LPRC) OSCILLATOR The Low-Power RC (LPRC) Oscillator provides a nominal clock frequency of 32 kHz. The LPRC Oscillator is the clock source for the Power-up Timer (PWRT), Watchdog Timer (WDT), and Fail-Safe Clock Monitor (FSCM) circuits. It can also be used to provide a low-frequency clock source option for the device in those applications where power consumption is critical and timing accuracy is not required. Note: 7.9.1 The clock frequency of the LPRC Oscillator will vary, depending on the device voltage and operating temperature. Refer to the “Electrical Characteristics” section in the specific device data sheet for details. LPRC Oscillator for System Clock The LPRC Oscillator is selected as the system clock in the following conditions: • Initial Oscillator Source Selection bits (FNOSC<2:0>) in the Oscillator Source Selection register (FOSCSEL<2:0>) are appropriately set to select LPRC Oscillator at a POR • User software initiates a clock switch to the LPRC Oscillator for low-power operation 7.9.2 Enabling the LPRC Oscillator The LPRC Oscillator is the clock source for the PWRT, WDT, and FSCM. LPRC Oscillator is enabled at a POR when the Power-on Reset Timer Value Select bits (FPWRT) in the POR Configuration Fuse register (FPOR<2:0>) are set. The LPRC Oscillator remains enabled in the following conditions: • FSCM is enabled • WDT is enabled • LPRC Oscillator is selected as the system clock If none of these conditions is true, the LPRC Oscillator shuts off after the PWRT expires. The LPRC Oscillator is shut off in Sleep mode. Note: 7.9.3 The LPRC runs in Sleep mode only if WDT is enabled. Under all other conditions, the LPRC is disabled in Sleep mode. LPRC Oscillator Start-up Delay The LPRC Oscillator starts up instantly; unlike a crystal oscillator, which can take several milliseconds to begin oscillation. DS70186E-page 7-24 © 2007-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. Section 7. Oscillator 7.10 FAIL-SAFE CLOCK MONITOR (FSCM) The Fail-Safe Clock Monitor (FSCM) allows the device to continue to operate when an oscillator failure occurs. FSCM function is enabled by programming the Clock Switching Mode Configuration bits (FCKSM<1:0>) in the Oscillator Configuration register (FOSC<7:6>) during device programming. When the FSCM is enabled (FCKSM<1:0> = 00), the LPRC Oscillator runs continuously – except during Sleep state. The FSCM monitors the system clock. If it does not detect a system clock within a specific period of time (2 ms typically, 4 ms maximum), the FSCM generates a clock failure trap and switches the system clock to the Internal FRC Oscillator. At that point, the user application can either attempt to restart the oscillator or execute a controlled shutdown. Note: The FSCM does not wake-up the device if the clock fails while the device is in Sleep mode. • Current Oscillator Selection bits COSC<2:0> (OSCCON<14:12>) are loaded with ‘000’ (Internal FRC Oscillator) • Clock Fail Detect bit CF (OSCCON<3>) is set to indicate the clock failure • Oscillator Switch Enable Control bit OSWEN (OSCCON<0>) is cleared to cancel any pending clock switches 7.10.1 FSCM Delay The FSCM monitors the system clock for activity after the system clock is ready and the nominal delay (TFSCM) has elapsed. The FSCM delay is applied when the FSCM is enabled, and the POSC or SOSC is selected as the system clock. Note: Refer to the “Electrical Characteristics” section of the specific device data sheet for TFSCM values. For additional information, refer to Section 8. “Reset” (DS70192). The most recent documentation can always be found on the Microchip web site, www.microchip.com. 7.10.2 FSCM and WDT The FSCM and WDT use the LPRC Oscillator as their time base. In the event of a clock failure, the WDT is unaffected and continues to run on the LPRC Oscillator. © 2007-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. DS70186E-page 7-25 Oscillator The FSCM module takes the following actions when it switches to the Internal FRC Oscillator: 7 dsPIC33F/PIC24H Family Reference Manual 7.11 CLOCK SWITCHING Clock switching can be initiated as a result of a hardware event or a software request. Typical scenarios include: • Two-speed start-up sequence on a POR, which initially uses the Internal FRC Oscillator for quick start-up, and then automatically switches to the selected clock source when the clock is ready. • FSCM automatically switches to the Internal FRC Oscillator on a clock failure • User application software requests clock switching by setting the OSWEN bit (OSCCON<0>), causing the hardware to switch to the clock source selected by the NOSC<2:0> bits (OSCCON<10:8>) when the clock is ready In each of these cases, the clock switch event assures that the proper make-before-break sequence is executed. That is, the new clock source must be ready before the old clock is deactivated, and code must continue to execute as clock switching occurs. Some dsPIC33F/PIC24H devices feature the Phase-Locked Loop Enable bit (PLLKEN) in the FWDT Fuse Configuration register (FWDT<5>). Setting this bit will cause the device to wait until the PLL locks before switching to the PLL clock source. When this bit is set to ‘0’, the device will not wait for the PLL lock and will proceed with the clock switch. The default setting for this bit is ‘1’. Refer to Section 25. “Device Configuration” (DS70194) of this Family Reference Manual for more information. With few limitations, applications are free to switch between any of the 4 clock sources (the POSC, SOSC, FRC, and LPRC) that are under software control at any time. To limit the possible side effects that could result from this flexibility, dsPIC33F/PIC24H devices have a safeguard lock built into the switch process. That is, the OSCCON register is write-protected during clock switching. 7.11.1 Enabling Clock Switching The Clock Switching Mode Configuration bits (FCKSM<1:0>) in the Oscillator Configuration register (FOSC<7:6>) must be programmed to enable clock switching and the FSCM. Table 7-7: Configurable Clock Switching Modes FCKSM<1:0> Values Clock Switching Configuration FSCM Configuration 1x Disabled Disabled 01 Enabled Disabled 00 Enabled Enabled The first bit determines if clock switching is enabled (‘0’) or disabled (‘1’). The second bit determines if the FSCM is enabled (‘0’) or disabled (‘1’). The FSCM can only be enabled if clock switching is also enabled. If clock switching is disabled (‘1’), the value of the second bit is irrelevant. 7.11.2 Clock Switch Sequence The recommended process for a clock switch is as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. DS70186E-page 7-26 Read the COSC<2:0> bits (OSCCON<14:12>) to determine the current oscillator source (if this information is relevant to the application). Execute the unlock sequence, allowing a write to the high byte of the OSCCON register. Write the appropriate value to the NOSC<2:0> Control bits (OSCCON<10:8>) for the new oscillator source. Execute the unlock sequence, allowing a write to the low byte of the OSCCON register. Set the OSWEN bit (OSCCON<0>) to initiate the oscillator switch. © 2007-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. Section 7. Oscillator After the previous steps are completed, the clock switch logic performs the following steps: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Note 1: Clock switching between the XT, HS and EC Primary Oscillator modes is not possible without reprogramming the device. 2: Direct clock switching between the PLL modes is not possible. For example, clock switching should not occur between the POSC with PLL and the Internal FRC Oscillator with PLL. 3: Setting the CLKLOCK bit (OSCCON<7>) prevents clock switching when clock switching is enabled and the FSCM is disabled by the Configuration bits FCKSM<1:0> (FOSC<7:6>) = 01. The CLKLOCK bit (OSCCON<7>) cannot be cleared when it has been set by software; it clears on a POR. 4: The processor continues to execute code throughout the clock switching sequence. Timing-sensitive code should not be executed during this time. 5: The clock switch will not wait for the PLL lock if the PLLKEN bit in the FWDT Fuse Configuration register (FWDT<5>) is set to ‘0’. Figure 7-9: Clock Transition Timing Diagram New Source Enabled New Source Stable Old Source Disabled Old Clock Source New Clock Source System Clock OSWEN Both Oscillators Active Note: The system clock can be any selected source – POSC, SOSC, FRC or LPRC. © 2007-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. DS70186E-page 7-27 7 Oscillator 6. The clock switching hardware compares the COSC<2:0> Status bits (OSCCON<14:12>) with the new value of the NOSC<2:0> Control bits (OSCCON<10:8>). If they are the same, the clock switch is a redundant operation. In this case, the OSWEN bit (OSCCON<0>) is cleared automatically and the clock switch is aborted. If a valid clock switch has been initiated, the PLL Lock Status bits (OSCCON<5>) and Clock Fail Status bits (OSCCON<3>) are cleared. The new oscillator is turned on by the hardware (if it is not currently running). If a crystal oscillator (the POSC or SOSC) must be turned on, the hardware waits for TOSCD until the crystal starts oscillating and TOST expires. If the new source uses the PLL, the hardware waits until a PLL lock is detected (OSCCON<5> = 1). The hardware waits for the new clock source to stabilize and then performs the clock switch. The hardware clears the OSWEN bit (OSCCON<0>) to indicate a successful clock transition. In addition, the NOSC<2:0> bit values (OSCCON<10:8>) are transferred to the COSC<2:0> Status bits (OSCCON<14:12>). The old clock source is turned off at this time, with the exception of the LPRC (if the WDT or FSCM is enabled) or the SOSC (if the SOSCEN remains set). The timing of the transition between clock sources in shown in Figure 7-9. dsPIC33F/PIC24H Family Reference Manual A recommended code sequence for a clock switch includes the following actions: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Disable interrupts during the OSCCON register unlock-and-write sequence. Execute the unlock sequence for the OSCCON high byte. In 2 back-to-back instructions: • Write 0x78 to OSCCON<15:8> • Write 0x9A to OSCCON<15:8> In the instruction immediately following the unlock sequence, write the new oscillator source to the NOSC<2:0> Control bits (OSCCON<10:8>). Execute the unlock sequence for the OSCCON low byte. In 2 back-to-back instructions: • Write 0x46 to OSCCON<7:0> • Write 0x57 to OSCCON<7:0> In the instruction immediately following the unlock sequence, set the OSWEN bit (OSCCON<0>). Continue to execute code that is not clock-sensitive (optional). Check to see if the OSWEN bit (OSCCON<0>) is ‘0’. If it is, the switch was successful. Note: MPLAB® C Compiler for dsPIC DSCs provides the following built-in C language functions for unlocking the OSCCON register: __builtin_write_OSCCONL(value) __builtin_write_OSCCONH(value) See MPLAB C Compiler Help for more information.

Section 7. Oscillator 7.11.3 Clock Switching Consideration When you incorporate clock switching into an application, issues to keep in mind when designing your code include: 7.11.4 Aborting a Clock Switch If a clock switch does not complete, the clock switch logic can be reset by clearing the OSWEN bit (OSCCON<0>). When OSWEN is cleared, the clock switch process is aborted, OST (if applicable) is stopped and reset, and the PLL (if applicable) is stopped. Typical assembly code for aborting a clock switch is shown in Example 7-4. A clock switch procedure can be aborted at any time. A clock switch that is already in progress can also be aborted by performing a second clock switch. Example 7-4: MOV MOV.b MOV.b MOV.b MOV.b BCLR 7.11.5 Aborting a Clock Switch #OSCCON,W1 #0x46,W2 #0x57,W3 W2, [W1] W3, [W1] OSCCON,#OSWEN ; ; ; ; ; ; pointer to OSCCON first unlock code second unlock code write first unlock code write second unlock code ABORT the switch Entering Sleep Mode During a Clock Switch If the device enters Sleep mode during a clock switch operation, the clock switch operation is aborted. The processor keeps the old clock selection, and the OSWEN bit is cleared. The PWRSAV instruction is then executed normally. It is particularly useful to perform a clock switch to the Internal FRC Oscillator before entering Sleep mode, as this will ensure fast wake-up from Sleep. © 2007-2012 Microchip Technology Inc. DS70186E-page 7-29 7 Oscillator • The OSCCON unlock sequence is extremely timing critical. The OSCCON register byte is only writable for 1 instruction cycle following the sequence. Some high-level languages, such as C, may not preserve the timing-sensitive sequence of instructions when compiled. When clock switching is required for an application written in a high-level language, it is best to create the routine in assembler and link it to the application – calling it as a function, when it is required. • If the destination clock source is a crystal oscillator, the clock switch time will be dominated by the oscillator start-up time • If the new clock source does not start, or is not present, clock switching hardware will continue to run from the current clock source. Your software can detect this situation because the OSWEN bit (OSCCON<0>) remains set indefinitely. • If the new clock source uses a PLL, a clock switch will not occur until lock has been achieved. Your software can detect a loss of a PLL lock because the LOCK bit (OSCCON<5>) is cleared and the OSWEN bit (OSCCON<0>) is set. • Switching to a low-frequency clock source, such as the secondary oscillator, will result in slow device operation dsPIC33F/PIC24H Family Reference Manual 7.12 TWO-SPEED START-UP The Internal External Start-up Option Configuration bit (IESO) in the Oscillator Source Selection register (FOSCSEL<7>) specifies whether to start the device with a user-selected oscillator source; or to initially start with the Internal FRC Oscillator, and then automatically switch to the user-selected oscillator. If this bit is set to ‘1’, the device will always power-up on the Internal FRC Oscillator, regardless of the other oscillator source settings (FOSCSEL<2:0>). Then, the device automatically switches to the specified oscillator, when it is ready. Unless FSCM is enabled, the Internal FRC Oscillator is automatically turned off immediately after the clock switch is completed. The Two-Speed Start-up option is a faster way to get the device up and running, and works independently of the state of the Clock Switching Mode bits (FCKSM<1:0>) in Oscillator Configuration register (FOSC<7:6>). Two-Speed Start-up is particularly useful when an external oscillator is selected by the FNOSC<2:0> Configuration bits (FOSCSEL<2:0>) and a crystal-based oscillator (either a primary or secondary oscillator) has a longer start-up time. As an internal RC oscillator, the FRC clock source is available almost immediately following a POR. With Two-Speed Start-up, the device starts executing code in its default oscillator configuration – FRC. It continues to operate in this mode until the specified external oscillator source becomes stable, at which time it automatically switches to that source. User code can check which clock source is currently providing the device clocking by checking the status of the COSC<2:0> bits (OSCCON<14:12>) against the NOSC<2:0> bits (OSCCON<10:8>). If these two sets of bits match, the clock switch has been completed successfully and the device is running from the intended clock source.
