generation of clock signal of 12MHz using LPC2368

I am a student learning microcontrollers. now i'am working on lpc2368. i had to generate a clock signal of approximately 10MHz to 12MHz using this IC.
is it possible? if yes how is it?

  • Hello Ram,

    yes, it is possible. Is it a practice for your study? So i don´t think the idea behind this is to find someone who does the job.
    So i only give you a hint. The controller will have "timers". They can be used for that.
    And are HAVE TO USE this one? If i see it right, this device is allready a "big" one. If u have no experience in controllers before you´ll have a very hard task this thing running.
    If you could use something else, i still recommand AVR 8bit controllers from ATMEL. I started with them from the nothing except a MYavr programmer and the datasheets and got results.

    First things you are usually using in Controllers are timers, ADC´s and UART. While in the AVR´s u have to set up may be 2 or 3 8Bit registers while in the bigger controllers its more like 6 or 8 registers each 32 bit wide with a much bigger amount of run modes.
