13.13 Low Power RC Oscillator (LPRC)

The Low Power Internal RC Oscillator (LPRC) operates at a nominal frequency of 32.768 kHz.

Note: The LPRC is not a 50% duty cycle clock; however, it maintains an average frequency over a number of base clocks.

The LPRC can be used as both a source for the system clock and a reference for Backup core modules. These modules include the Deep Sleep Watchdog (DSWDT), clock monitor circuits and other modules that require a 32 kHz reference clock.
