Intel386™ EX EMBEDDED MICROPROCESSOR USER’S MANUAL

Three of the internal peripherals have selectable clock sources.
• The asynchronous serial I/O (SIO) unit can use either the SERCLK signal or an external
clock (connected to the COMCLK pin) as its clock source.
• The synchronous serial I/O (SSIO) unit can use either the SERCLK signal or the PSCLK
signal.
• The timer/counters can use either the PSCLK signal or an external clock connected to the
TMRCLKn input pin.
The individual peripheral chapters explain how to select the clock inputs.
