Bits 22:16 – CALIB[6:0] Oscillator Calibration

These bits control the oscillator calibration. The calibration values must be loaded by the user from the NVM Software Calibration Area.

Bit 12 – WRTLOCK Write Lock

This bit locks the OSC32K register for future writes, effectively freezing the OSC32K configuration.

ValueDescription
0The OSC32K configuration is not locked.
1The OSC32K configuration is locked.

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

These bits select start-up time for the oscillator.

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

Table 16-4. Start-Up Time for 32.768 kHz Internal Oscillator
STARTUP[2:0] Number of OSC32K clock cycles
0x03
0x14
0x26
0x310
0x418
0x534
0x666
0x7130
Note:
  1. Start-up time is given by STARTUP + three OSC32K cycles.

Bit 7 – ONDEMAND On Demand Control

This bit controls how the OSC32K behaves when a peripheral clock request is detected. For details, refer to OSC32K Sleep Behavior.

Bit 6 – RUNSTDBY Run in Standby

This bit controls how the OSC32K behaves during standby sleep mode. For details, refer to OSC32K Sleep Behavior.

Bit 3 – EN1K 1.024 kHz Output Enable

ValueDescription
0The 1.024 kHz output is disabled.
1The 1.024 kHz output is enabled, and available internally only for RTC.

Bit 2 – EN32K 32.768 kHz Output Enable

ValueDescription
0The 32.768 kHz output is disabled.
1The 32.768 kHz output is enabled, and can be routed to GCLK/GCLK_IO.

Bit 1 – ENABLE Oscillator Enable

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