MC68HC912DG128 — Rev 3.0
MOTOROLA
A steady internal self-time clock is required to provide accurate counts
to meet EEPROM program/erase requirements. This clock is generated
via by a programmable 10-bit prescaler register. Automatic
program/erase termination is also provided.
In ordinary situations, with crystal operating properly, the steady internal
self-time clock is derived from the input clock source (EXTALi). The
divider value is as in EEDIVH:EEDIVL. In limp-home mode, where the
oscillator has malfunctioned or is unavailable, the self-time clock is
derived from the PLL with approximately 1 MHz frequency, with a
predefined divider value of $0023. Program/erase operation is not
guaranteed in limp-home mode. The clock switching function is only
applicable for permanent loss of crystal condition, so the program/erase
will also not be guaranteed when the loss of crystal condition is
intermittent.
It is strongly recommended that the clock monitor is enabled to ensure
that the program/erase operation will be shutdown in the event of loss of
crystal with a clock monitor reset, or switch to a limp-home mode clock.
This will prevent unnecessary stress on the emulated EEPROM during
oscillator failure.
