Timings

All timing conditions: V

itance = 30 pF.

All timings refer to tck, which is the internal master clock period.

The internal master clock frequency is 4 times the frequency at pin X1. Therefore tck = txtal/4.

The sampling rate is given by 1/(tck*1024). The maximum crystal frequency/clock frequency at

X1 is 12.288 MHz (48 kHz sampling rate).

Crystal Frequency Selection Considerations

There is a trade-off between the crystal frequency and the support of widely available external

ROM/Flash components. Table 9-1 allows to select the best fit for a given application;

Using 12.288 MHz crystal frequency allows to use widely available ROM/Flash with 90 ns

access time, while providing state of the art 48 kHz sampling rate.
