LPC2103 PLL

Started by Jason June 20, 2011
Ok this isnt a question of how but why? and what?

I was finally re-reading the PLL information in the User Manual of the LPC210x family and i stumbled across this:

"The input frequency is multiplied up the range of 10 MHz to 60 MHz using a Current Controlled Oscillators (CCO)."

Its on Page 48, "9. Phase Locked Loop (PLL)" second sentence.

Now im lost here because everywhere else in the datasheet and manual it states i can reach 70Mhz. Which is true?

Can i only get 60Mhz or can i get 70Mhz ?

An Engineer's Guide to the LPC2100 Series

You caught an error in the manual. This sentence is bogus. The device does run at 70 MHz.

Yay! So i can in deed make it hit 70Mhz... Now i have to edit my site..

Thanks.
