While doing some ADC code I noticed that the CLKDIV seems to be wrong.
This is for a LPC1114 running at 48 MHz on the internal oscillator.

LPC_ADC->CR = ((SystemCoreClock/LPC_SYSCON->SYSAHBCLKDIV)/ADC_CLK - 1) << 8;

[SIZE=2]I copied this code from the examples.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]This piece of code sets CLKDIV to a value of 9. The actual divisor ends up being 10 (9 + 1). [/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]Since [/SIZE][SIZE=2]the system is running at 48 MHz the ADC clock will be 4.8 MHz which exceeds[/SIZE]
[SIZE=2]the spec of 4.5 MHz. Is this correct? Should the CLKDIV actually be 10?[/SIZE]

[SIZE=2]Thanks,[/SIZE]

Hello micrio,

I think you are right. The value of 4.8MHz is a little out of spec.

Noticed well! We will correct that.
