Clocks

The UPDI Physical (UPDI PHY) layer and UPDI Access (UPDI ACC) layer can operate on different clock domains. The UPDI PHY layer clock is derived from an internal oscillator, and the UPDI ACC layer clock is the same as the system clock. There is a synchronization boundary between the UPDI PHY layer and UPDI ACC layer, which ensures correct operation between the clock domains. The UPDI clock output frequency is selected through the ASI, and the default UPDI clock start-up frequency is 4MHz after enabling the UPDI. The UPDI clock frequency is changed by writing the UPDICLKSEL bits in ASI_CTRLA register.
