PIC18LF2550 Oscillator configuration
PostPosted: Tue Sep 01, 2009 6:33 pm     Reply with quote

Hello.
I'm working with PIC18LF2550 and I have some questions that I have difficult to understand.
1-At 5V, Can I use a 16MHZ crystal and put the pic to work at 48MHz or 20MHZ? What instructions must I give?


2-What is the maximum frequency that I can use at 3,3V. Datasheet have figure 28-2 but no formula.

Thanks
PCM programmer

The formula is really very simple. The PLL must have an input frequency
of 4 MHz. So, just use the PLLx fuse to divide your crystal frequency
so that you get 4 MHz. For example, you have a 16 MHz crystal. If you
divide it by 4, then you get the required 4 MHz. So use the PLL4 fuse
to do this. If you have a 20 MHz crystal, then use PLL5. If you have an
8 MHz crystal then use PLL2. It's easy.

Example for running at 48 MHz with a 16 MHz crystal:
Code:

#include <18F4550.h>
#fuses HSPLL,NOWDT,NOPROTECT,NOLVP,USBDIV,PLL4,CPUDIV1
#use delay(clock=48000000)

//==========================
void main()
{

while(1)
  {
   output_high(PIN_B0);
   delay_ms(500);
   output_low(PIN_B0);
   delay_ms(500);
  }

}

It can't run at 48 MHz. Interpolating the diagram, it looks like it will
run at about 18 MHz maximum.
