S32K118 Clock Monitoring Unit Configuration

sherifomar — Thu, 27 Dec 2018 12:36:24 GMT

Hello,

I am working with S32K118 and I am trying to configure the clock monitoring unit according to the below steps in the manual:

However, when trying to write in any register of the clock monitoring unit such as RCCR / HTCR / LTCR / IER / GCR ,

A hard fault exception is generated and I am unable to change the registers' value at all.

Is there some protection on these registers that I have to unlock before writing?

Appreciate your kind help.

Thanks and Regards.

Hello,

Have you enabled the CMU clock?

Hello Daniel,

Thank you so much for your answer. This was indeed the issue.

However I have another inquiry about the clock monitoring unit, I understand I can manipulate the thresholds in HTCR and LTCR registers to generate a Loss of Clock reset when monitoring the FIRC, I already tested that. But how can I change the CMU configuration to generate the same reset using the internal SOSC (8MHz) in S32K118 EVB? or does the CMU monitor only the FIRC?

Thanks and Regards,

Sherif

Hello Sherif,

CMU does not monitor SOSC.

Section 25.2.2.4 Loss-of-clock (LOC), RM rev.9. shows how to enable the SOSC monitor.
