Hi bob belmont,
Thank you for your interest in NXP Semiconductor products and for the opportunity to serve you.
I think you misunderstand this statement, it means that developer should beware of configuring a 48 MHz (USB clock), which is not equal to selecting 48 MHz external crystal oscillator.
Hope this is clear.
By the way, I'd like to suggest you build the clock via the MCUXpresso config tool.
Have a great day,
TIC
