4.4.2 Commonly Used Method - Reduction of the Clock Frequency

A compromise to meet the MCUs timing requirements is to reduce the modulator clock frequency. In this example a 17 MHz clock frequency allows the setup and hold timing requirements of the MCU to be met. The calculated setup and hold times including minimum and maximum values at a clock frequency of 17 MHz are shown in Table 4-3. The margin for the minimum setup time to the MCUs setup time requirement is 0 ns. This means tolerances in the system can possibly lead to incorrect acquisition of data. A larger margin for tolerances in the system can be achieved by further reducing the clock frequency, but this has a negative effect on the system performance.
