Subclock Generator
Connecting a 32.768 kHz/38.4 kHz Crystal Oscillator
Clock pulses can be supplied to the subclock divider by connecting a 32.768 kHz/38.4 kHz crystal
oscillator, as shown in figure 4.8. Follow the same precautions as noted under 3. notes on board
design for the system clock in section 4.2.
Note that only operation at 32.768 kHz is guaranteed on the H8/38124 Group.
