TMS320F280049 with a 25MHz external oscillator

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320F280049

On our connectivity board we mount a TMS320F280049 clocked with an external oscillator of 25MHz. However, according to the microcontroller datasheet, this is outside spec: allowed frequency is in range 2 - 20MHz. 

Considering that we do not use CAN bus on uC, is it advisable to change the external oscillator or can we live with that?

  • Hi Marco,

    The crystal oscillator design in the F280049 device does not support external crystal that is beyond 20MHz operation.  Please select a crystal for your application that meets the 10-20MHz crystal requirement as listed in the datasheet.

    Regards,

    Joseph
