PRODUCTION DATA
The XO input has a coarse frequency monitor to help qualify the input before the monitor is used to lock the APLLs.
The XO frequency detector clears the LOS_FDET_XO flag when the XO input frequency is detected within the specified range listed in the Electrical Characteristics. The XO frequency monitor uses a RC-based detector and therefore can not precisely determine whether XO input clock has sufficient frequency stability. A stable XO input verifies successful VCO calibration of APLL2 or APLL1 during the APLL start-up. When the external XO clock has a slow or delayed start-up behavior, force a calibration on APLL2 and APLL1 once the XO input is stable. See Slow or Delayed XO Start-Up for more information.
The XO frequency detector can be bypassed by setting the XO_FDET_BYP bit (shown as EN in the XO input monitor block of Figure 8-17) so that the XO input is always considered valid by the PLL control state machine. The user can observe the LOS_FDET_XO status flag through the status pins and status bit. Setting XO_FDET_BYP bit bypasses the detect, but does not reflect any change to LOS_FDET_XO status flag.
