6. Clock System

Figure 6-1 presents the principal clock systems and their distribution. All of the clocks need not

be active at a given time. In order to reduce power consumption, the clocks to modules not being

used can be halted by using different sleep modes, as described in “Power Management and

Sleep Modes” on page 34.

Clock Distribution

6.1

Clock Subsystems

The clock subsystems are detailed in the sections below.

6.1.1

CPU Clock – clkCPU

The CPU clock is routed to parts of the system concerned with operation of the AVR core.

Examples of such modules are the General Purpose Register File, the Status Register and the

Data memory holding the Stack Pointer. Halting the CPU clock inhibits the core from performing

general operations and calculations.

6.1.2

I/O Clock – clkI/O

The I/O clock is used by the majority of the I/O modules, like Timer/Counter. The I/O clock is

also used by the External Interrupt module, but note that some external interrupts are detected

by asynchronous logic, allowing such interrupts to be detected even if the I/O clock is halted.
