MC9S08GT60ACBE Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum clock frequency of the MC9S08GT60ACBE?
  The maximum clock frequency of the MC9S08GT60ACBE is 20 MHz, but it can be overclocked to 24 MHz with reduced voltage and temperature range.
• How do I configure the internal clock source of the MC9S08GT60ACBE?
  The internal clock source of the MC9S08GT60ACBE can be configured using the SYNR and REFS registers in the System Options Register (SOR) module. The clock source can be set to either the internal oscillator, external oscillator, or the PLL clock.
• What is the maximum amount of flash memory that can be programmed on the MC9S08GT60ACBE?
  The MC9S08GT60ACBE has 60 KB of flash memory, but only 56 KB is available for user programming. The remaining 4 KB is reserved for the bootloader and other system functions.
• How do I implement a watchdog timer on the MC9S08GT60ACBE?
  The MC9S08GT60ACBE has a built-in watchdog timer (COP) that can be enabled and configured using the COPCTL register. The watchdog timer can be set to timeout after a specified period of inactivity, and can be reset using the COPRST register.
• What is the maximum current consumption of the MC9S08GT60ACBE?
  The maximum current consumption of the MC9S08GT60ACBE depends on the operating frequency and voltage. At 20 MHz and 5V, the maximum current consumption is around 25 mA. However, this can be reduced to around 10 mA at 8 MHz and 3.3V.
