Bits 4:1 – PDIV[3:0] Prescaler Division
If the Prescaler Enable (PEN) bit is written to ‘1’,
this bit field defines the division ratio of the main clock prescaler.
This bit field can be written during run-time to vary the clock frequency of the system to suit the application requirements.
The user software must ensure a correct configuration of input frequency (CLK_MAIN) and prescaler settings, such that the resulting frequency of CLK_PER never exceeds the allowed maximum (see Electrical Characteristics).

Bit 0 – PEN Prescaler Enable
This bit must be written '1' to enable the
prescaler. When enabled, the division ratio is selected by the PDIV bit
field.
When this bit is written to '0', the main clock will
pass through undivided (CLK_PER=CLK_MAIN), regardless of the value of PDIV.
