mencing normal operation. The watchdog oscillator is used for timing this real-time part of the
start-up time. The number of WD oscillator cycles used for each time-out is shown in
Table 6-2.
To drive the device from an external clock source, CLKI should be driven as shown in
2. To run the device on an external clock, the CKSEL Fuses must be programmed to “0000”.
Figure 6-2.
When this clock source is selected, start-up times are determined by the SUT Fuses as shown in
Table
Table 6-3.
When applying an external clock, it is required to avoid sudden changes in the applied clock fre-
quency to ensure stable operation of the MCU. A variation in frequency of more than 2% from
one clock cycle to the next can lead to unpredictable behavior. It is required to ensure that the
MCU is kept in Reset during such changes in the clock frequency.
Note that the system clock prescaler can be used to implement run-time changes of the internal
clock frequency. See
The internal PLL generates a clock signal with a frequency eight times higher than the source
input. The PLL uses the output of the internal 8 MHz oscillator as source and the default setting
generates a fast peripheral clock signal of 64 MHz.
