17.5.3 Clocks

The clock for the FREQM bus interface (CLK_APB_FREQM) is enabled and disabled by the Main Clock Controller, the default state of CLK_APB_FREQM can be found in the 16.6.2.6 Peripheral Clock Masking section.

Two generic clocks are used by the FREQM(GCLK_FREQM_REF and GCLK_FREQM_MSR). The reference clock (GCLK_FREQM_REF) is required to clock the internal reference timer while operating as a frequency reference, while the measurement clock (GCLK_FREQM_MSR) is required to clock a ripple counter for frequency measurement. These clocks must be configured and enabled in the Generic Clock Controller before using the FREQM.
