2.5.1 Internal Clock Sampling rates for the internal clock can be calculated using the following equation: t = 100ns * [N1*N2] or f = 10MHz / [N1*N2] wher e N1 is the low 1 6-b its of the clock di vid er and N2 is the high 1 6-b its of the clock divider. The following criteria must be met when selecting values for N1 and N2: 2 < N1 < 65,535 2[...]
