27.4 Functional Description

The TD_OSCSEL bit located in the Slow Clock Controller Configuration register (SCKC_CR) is in the backup domain and its value is kept while VDDBU is present.

The embedded 32 kHz (typical) slow RC oscillator is always enabled as soon as VDDBU is established. The Slow Clock Selector command TD_OSCSEL bit selects the slow clock source of the RTT and the RTC.

After the VDDBU Power-On-Reset, the default configuration is TD_OSCSEL = 0.

The programmer controls the slow clock switching by software, so precautions must be taken during the switching phase.
