Intel® PXA255 Processor Developer’s Manual 3-35
Clocks and Power Manager
Memory frequency = 3.6864 MHz crystal freq. * crystal frequency to memory frequency multiplier
(L)
Run mode frequency = Memory frequency * memory frequency to run mode frequency multiplier
(M)
Turbo mode frequency = run mode frequency * run mode frequency to turbo mode frequency
multiplier (N)
The value for L is chosen based on external memory or LCD requirements and can be constant
while M and N change to allow run and turbo mode frequency changes without disrupting memory
settings. The value for M is chosen based on bus bandwidth requirements and minimum core
performance requirements. The value for N is chosen based on peak core performance
requirements.
