8.3.2 Clock Subsystem

The AWRL684x clock subsystem generates 57 to 63.9GHz from an input reference from a crystal. It has a built in oscillator circuit followed by a clean-up PLL and a RF synthesizer circuit. The output of the RF synthesizer is then processed by an X3 multiplier to create the required frequency in the 57 to 63.9 spectrum. The RF synthesizer output is modulated by the timing engine block to create the required waveforms for effective sensor operation. The clean-up PLL also provides a reference clock for the host processor after system wakeup. The clock subsystem also has built-in mechanisms for detecting the presence of a crystal and monitoring the quality of the generated clock

The clean-up PLL also provides a reference clock for the host processor after system wakeup.

The clock subsystem also has built-in mechanisms for detecting the presence of a crystal and monitoring the quality of the generated clock.

Figure 8-2 describes the clock subsystem.
