3.2 Bulk and decoupling capacitors

The effectiveness of the bulk/bypass and the de-coupling capacitors depends on the optimum placement and connection type.

The bulk capacitors are used for a local power supply to the power pin, near the decoupling capacitors and as close as possible

to the assigned reference voltage pin. Decoupling capacitors make the current loop between supply, MCU and reference ground

as short as possible to reduce high frequency transients and noises. Therefore,

• All decoupling capacitors should be placed as close as possible to each of their respective power supply pin.

• The ground side of the decoupling capacitor should have a via to the pad which goes directly down to the internal ground

plane.

• The route distance between the capacitors to the power plane should be as short as possible.

4 Clock circuitry

4.1 Introduction

The LPC55S1x/2x/6x has the following clock sources:

• Internal Free Running Oscillator (FRO). This oscillator provides a selectable 96 MHz output, and a 12 MHz output (divided

down from the selected higher frequency) that can be used as a system clock. The FRO is trimmed to +/- 2% accuracy

over the entire voltage and temperature range.

• 32 kHz Internal Free Running Oscillator FRO. The FRO is trimmed to +/- 2% accuracy over the entire voltage and

temperature range.

• Internal low power oscillator (FRO 1 MHz) trimmed to +/- 15% accuracy over the entire voltage and temperature range.

• Crystal oscillator with an operating frequency of 16 MHz or 32 MHz. Option for external clock input (bypass mode) for

clock frequencies of up to 24 MHz.

• Crystal oscillator with 32.768 kHz operating frequency. Option for external clock input (bypass mode) for clock frequencies

of up to 100 kHz.

• PLL0 and PLL1 allow CPU operation up to the maximum CPU rate without the need for a high-frequency external clock.

PLL0 and PLL1 can run from the internal FRO 12 MHz output, the external oscillator, internal FRO 1 MHz output, or the

32.768 kHz RTC oscillator.

• Clock output function with divider to monitor internal clocks.

• Frequency measurement unit for measuring the frequency of any on-chip or off-chip clock signal.

For external crystal oscillator and RTC oscillator, LPC55Sxx have capacitor bank feature. It means that the

stabilizing capacitors can be unsoldered on both 32 K and 16 MHz XTAL. We also suggest users to keep the two

stabilizing capacitors as DNP/Do Not Populate on PCB.

4.2 Crystal oscillator

In the crystal oscillator circuit, only the crystal (XTAL) and the capacitances, CX1 and CX2, need to be connected externally on

XTAL32M_P and XTAL32M_N pins, as shown in Figure 4. In bypass mode, an external clock (maximum frequency of up to 24 MHz)

can also be connected to XTAL32M_P if XTAL32M_N is left open. External [0 – VH] square signal can be applied on the XTAL32M_P

pin from 0 V to 850 mV.

For best results, it is very critical to select a matching crystal for the on-chip oscillator. Load Capacitance (CL), Resistance Series

(RS), and Drive Level (DL) are important parameters to consider while choosing the crystal. After selecting the proper crystal, the

external load capacitor CX1 and CX2 values can also be generally determined by the following expression:

Where:

Application Note 7 / 24

• CL: Crystal load capacitance

• CPad: Pad capacitance of the XTAL32M_P and XTAL32M_N pins (~3 pF)

• CParasitic: Parasitic or stray capacitance of external circuit.

Although CParasitic can be ignored in general, the actual board layout and placement of external components influences the optimal

values of external load capacitors. Therefore, it is recommended to fine tune the values of external load capacitors on actual

hardware board to get the accurate clock frequency. For fine tuning, output the RTC Clock to one of the GPIOs and optimize the

values of external load capacitors for minimum frequency deviation. The load capacitors are dependent on the specifications of

the crystal and on the board capacitance. It is recommended to have the crystal manufacturer evaluate the crystal on the PCB.

4.2.1 Crystal Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design guidelines

• Connect the crystal and external load capacitors on the PCB as close as possible to the oscillator input and output pins of

the chip.

• The length of traces in the oscillation circuit should be as short as possible and must not cross other signal lines.

• Ensure that the load capacitors CX1 and CX2, in case of third overtone crystal usage, have a common ground plane.

• Loops must be made as small as possible to minimize the noise coupled in through the PCB and to keep the parasitic as

small as possible.

• Lay out the ground (GND) pattern under crystal unit.

• Do not lay out other signal lines under crystal unit for multi-layered PCB.

4.3 RTC oscillator

In the RTC oscillator circuit, only the 32.768 kHz crystal (XTAL) and the capacitances, CX1 and CX2, need to be connected

externally on XTAL32K_P and XTAL32K_N, as shown in Figure 5.

In bypass mode, an external clock (maximum frequency of up to 100 kHz) can also be connected to XTAL32K_P if XTAL32K_N is

left open. External [0 – VH] square signal can be applied on the XTAL32K_P pin with 1.1 V +/-10%

An external signal below 1.0 V or above 1.2 V cannot be applied.

the chip.

Application Note 9 / 24

• Ensure that the load capacitors CX1, CX2, and CX3, in case of third overtone crystal usage, have a common ground

plane.

• Loops must be made as small as possible to minimize the noise coupled in through the PCB and to keep the parasitics as

small as possible.

• Lay out the GND pattern under crystal unit.

• Do not lay out other signal lines under crystal unit for multi-layered PCB.

4.4 Common suggestions for the PCB layout of oscillator circuit

The crystal oscillator is an analog circuit and must be designed carefully and according to the analog-board layout rules:

• It is recommended to send the PCB to the crystal manufacturer to determine the negative oscillation margin as well as

the optimum regarding CXTAL and CEXTAL capacitors. The datasheet includes recommendations for the tank capacitors

CXTAL and CEXTAL. These values together with the expected PCB, pin, etc. stray capacity values should be used as an

initial point.

• The crystal or resonator oscillator is sensitive to stray capacitance and noise from other signals. It should be placed away

from high-frequency devices and traces in order to avoid and reduce the capacitive coupling between the XTAL and

EXTAL pins and their PCB traces.

• The main oscillation loop current is flowing between the crystal and the load capacitors. This signal path (Oscillator to

CEXTAL to CXTAL to Oscillator) should be kept as short and symmetric tracing as possible. Hence, both the capacitor's

ground connections should be direct always to the closer VSS pin using the cooper-pour ground plane and several vias to

the ground internal layer in the PCB are mandatory.

• The EXTAL and XTAL pins should only be connected to required oscillator components and must not be connected to any

other devices.

Figure 6 shows the recommended placement and routing for the oscillator layout.
