Bit 12 – WRTLOCK Write Lock

This bit locks the XOSC32K register for future writes, effectively freezing the XOSC32K configuration.

ValueDescription
0The XOSC32K configuration is not locked.
1The XOSC32K configuration is locked.

Bits 10:8 – STARTUP[2:0] Oscillator Start-Up Time

These bits select the start-up time for the oscillator.

The OSCULP32K oscillator is used to clock the start-up counter.

0x7--Reserved
Note:
  1. Actual Start-Up time is 1 OSCULP32K cycle + 3 XOSC32K cycles.
  2. The given time assumes an XTAL frequency of 32.768kHz.

Bit 7 – ONDEMAND On Demand Control

This bit controls how the XOSC32K behaves when a peripheral clock request is detected. For details, refer to XOSC32K Sleep Behavior.

Bit 6 – RUNSTDBY Run in Standby

This bit controls how the XOSC32K behaves during standby sleep mode. For details, refer to XOSC32K Sleep Behavior.

Bit 4 – EN1K 1KHz Output Enable

ValueDescription
0The 1KHz output is disabled.
1The 1KHz output is enabled.

Bit 3 – EN32K 32KHz Output Enable

ValueDescription
0The 32KHz output is disabled.
1The 32KHz output is enabled.

Bit 2 – XTALEN Crystal Oscillator Enable

This bit controls the connections between the I/O pads and the external clock or crystal oscillator.
ValueDescription
0External clock connected on XIN32. XOUT32 can be used as general-purpose I/O.
1Crystal connected to XIN32/XOUT32.

Bit 1 – ENABLE Oscillator Enable

ValueDescription
0The oscillator is disabled.
1The oscillator is enabled.
