On-Chip Oscillator Selection Method (H8/38124 Group Only)
The on-chip oscillator is selected by setting the IRQAEC pin input level during resets.* Table 4.3
lists the methods for selecting the system clock oscillator and the on-chip oscillator. The IRQAEC
pin input level set during resets must be fixed at V
selected. It is not necessary to connect an oscillator to pins OSC1 and OSC2 if the on-chip
oscillator is selected. In this case, pin OSC1 should be fixed at V
Note: The system clock oscillator must be selected in order to program or erase flash memory as
part of operations such as on-board programming. Also, when using the on-chip emulator,
an oscillator should be connected, or an external clock input, even if the on-chip oscillator
is selected.
* Other than watchdog timer or low-voltage detect circuit reset.
