System Design Information
This section provides electrical and thermal design recommendations for successful application of the PID8p-
750.
PLL Configuration
The PID8p-750 PLL is configured by the PLL_CFG[0-3-] signals. For a given SYSCLK (bus) frequency, the
PLL configuration signals set the internal CPU and VCO frequency of operation. The PLL configuration for
the PID8p-750 is shown in the following table for nominal frequencies.

Note:
1. Reserved settings.
2. SYSCLK min is limited by the lowest frequency that manufacturing will support, see Section , “Clock AC Specifications,” for valid SYSCLK and VCO
frequencies.
3. In PLL-bypass mode, the SYSCLK input signal clocks the internal processor directly, the PLL is disabled, and the bus mode is set for 1:1 mode
operation. This mode is intended for factory use only.
Note:
The AC timing specifications given in the document do not apply in PLL-bypass mode.
4. In Clock - off mode, no clocking occurs inside the PID8p-750 regardless of the SYSCLK input.
5. The SYSCLK limit is 100MHz as specified in Section “Clock AC Specifications,” on page 10.
6. VCO
is specified in this table by the maximum core processor speed. See “Clock AC Specifications” on page 10. This is not the VCO limit of the
technology.
7. VCO
MIN
is specified in this table by the minimum core processor speed. See “Clock AC Specifications” on page 10.
8. Available on rev level DD3.x or higher
