The oscillator programming pin. The oscillator of the UCC2808A-xEP tracks VDD and GND internally, so that variations in power supply rails minimally affect frequency stability. Section 7.2 shows the oscillator block diagram.
Only two components are required to program the oscillator: a resistor (tied to the VDD and RC), and a capacitor (tied to the RC and GND). Equation 1 determines the approximate oscillator frequency.

The recommended range of the timing resistors is from 10kΩ to 200kΩ, and range of the timing capacitors is from 100pF to 1000pF. Avoid timing resistors smaller than 10kΩ.
For best performance, keep the timing capacitor lead to GND as short as possible, the timing resistor lead from VDD as short as possible, and the leads between timing components and RC as short as possible. Separate ground and VDD traces to the external timing network are encouraged.
