SSCCLK Clock Group
The 48/66-MHz SSCCLK operates independently and is not length tuned to any other clock. This clock
employs a spread-spectrum device in its path to reduce EMI. The overall clock path is divided into two
segments as shown in Figure 113, with each segment series terminated and routed point to point.
