The thing is that the oscillator is working (i measure the 8Mhz Clock on
SMCLK) but I can't switch it to the MCLK. Doesnt't matter what I do
with the SELM register, I still have the 1Mhz Clock from the DCO. 

The oscialltor flag is already checked with the code snipset i provided.

Anyway I use now a workaround with the 32kHz crystal and the FLL
"upclocking" to 8Mhz, that seems to work.

Hi Martin,
there is a cool feature implemented! The crastal oscillator is 
checked if it is stable working. If not the controller uses 
automatically the integrated DCO clock for the CPU. 
So crystal failure doesn't stop the application.

What you have to do is to clear the OFIFG bit in the Controll 
register IFG1. After a wait loop you have to check if the
OFIFG Flag was set again. If so there is a problem with 
the oscillator. If it is still reset it means the oscillator
is working. 

Best regards,
            Chris

Hi,

I'm currently using an F449 with one 32kHz crystal on XT1 and one 8Mhz
crystal on XT2. I used a snipset of Code from TI to use both crystals.

My problem: MCLK is only 1.034 Mhz (probably DCO?) but SMCLK is 8MHz!
I did have selected the SELM switch but it does not appear to work..

Somebody has any suggestions?

Thanks
Martin
