RL78/G15 CHAPTER 5 CLOCK GENERATOR

5.4 System Clock Oscillator
5.4.1 X1 oscillator (16-pin and 20-pin products only)
The X1 oscillator oscillates with a crystal resonator or ceramic resonator (1 to 12 MHz) connected to the X1 pin and X2
pin. An external clock can also be input. In this case, input the clock signal to the EXCLK pin.
To use the X1 oscillator, set bits 7 and 6 (EXCLK, OSCSEL) of the clock operation mode control register (CMC) as
follows.
Crystal or ceramic oscillation: EXCLK, OSCSEL = 0, 1
External clock input: EXCLK, OSCSEL = 1, 1
When the X1 oscillator is not used, set the input port mode (EXCLK, OSCSEL = 0, 0).
When the pins are not used as input port pins, either, see Table 2-2 Connections of Unused Pins.
Figure 5-11 shows an example of the external circuit of the X1 oscillator.

Caution When using the X1 oscillator, wire as follows in the area enclosed by the broken lines in Figure 5-11
to avoid an adverse effect from wiring capacitance.
Keep the wiring length as short as possible.
Do not cross the wiring with the other signal lines. Do not route the wiring near a signal line
through which a high fluctuating current flows.
Always make the ground point of the oscillator capacitor the same potential as V
SS
. Do not ground
the capacitor to a ground pattern through which a high current flows.
Do not fetch signals from the oscillator.
