4xx Family

The 4xx family does not provide another low-frequency source for ACLK, such as the VLO in the 2xx family. The ACLK can be monitored in software with the use of a timer resource to verify either the frequency or the duty cycle. In either case, this information can be used to decouple the DCO from ACLK by turning off the FLL within the FLL+ module. The software can continue to monitor the ACLK and turn the FLL back on when the ACLK returns to regular operation.
