Clocking
In addition, some of the internal units may be required to be shut off or operate at lower frequency than
the csb_clk frequency. These units have a default clock ratio that can be configured by a memory mapped
register after the device comes out of reset.
The following table specifies which units have a configurable clock frequency. For detailed description,
refer to the “System Clock Control Register (SCCR)” section in the MPC8306S PowerQUICC II Pro
Integrated Communications Processor Family Reference Manual.
NOTE
Setting the clock ratio of these units must be performed prior to any access
to them.
The following table provides the maximum operating frequencies for the MPC8306S MAPBGA under
recommended operating conditions (see Table 2).
20.2 System PLL Configuration
The system PLL is controlled by the RCWL[SPMF] parameter. Table 49 shows the multiplication factor
encodings for the system PLL.
NOTE
System PLL VCO frequency = 2 × (CSB frequency) × (System PLL VCO
divider). The VCO divider needs to be set properly so that the System PLL
VCO frequency is in the range of 450–750 MHz.
As described in Section 20, “Clocking,” the LBCM, DDRCM, and SPMF parameters in the reset
configuration word low select the ratio between the primary clock input (SYS_CLK_IN) and the internal

Max Operating Frequency Unit

Notes:
1. The SYS_CLK_IN frequency, RCWL[SPMF], and RCWL[COREPLL] settings must be chosen such that the resulting
csb_clk, MCLK, LCLK, and core_clk frequencies do not exceed their respective maximum or minimum operating
frequencies.
2. The DDR2 data rate is 2× the DDR2 memory bus frequency.
3. The local bus frequency is 1/2, 1/4, or 1/8 of the lb_clk frequency (depending on LCRR[CLKDIV]) which is in turn 1× or 2×
the csb_clk frequency (depending on RCWL[LBCM]).
