how to check weather my board runs at 96mhz

hi i want to know how to check the speed of my lpc1768 (i,e) at what speed is it running.. pls anyone help

         pc.printf("%d",SystemCoreClock);
  }
  }

i am trying to set the pll clock i am not able to know if it works at 96mhz i am not able to get any msgs which iam trying to print inside the initclock function i get some junk value then the msg in the main gets printed coorectly can any one suggest me what is the problem and how to check the frequency and i dont have an oscilloscope

Hello,

there's a global system variable called SystemCoreClock, which should reflect the system core clocks. Of course, if you use cmsis API (SystemInit() and SystemCoreClockUpdate()). The LPC1768 should have a dedicated output pin to direct you clock there, which enables you to measure it with a measuring device like oscilloscope. Usually called CLKOUT.

is der any way to print it bcoz i dont have oscilloscope.. i have wriiten the code in c which i have posted below <<code>>

  1. include "mbed.h"
  2. define SYSCLK 96000000
  3. define EXTCLK 12000000
  4. define PLLCLK 288000000
  5. define PLLMULT (PLLCLK/2/EXTCLK)-1 Serial pc(USBTX,USBRX); void initclock() { pc.printf("in main\n"); LPC_SC->CLKSRCSEL =(1<<0); initize main oscillator

pc.printf("BREAK 1\n"); LPC_SC->PLL0CON&=(1<<1); ///DISCONNECT///

FED SEQ LPC_SC->PLL0FEED =0xAA; LPC_SC->PLL0FEED =0x55; while ((LPC_SC->PLL0STAT & (1<<25)) != 0x00);

I can see your code now, you changed the clocksettings, thus call SystemCoreClockUpdate(), which updates SystemCoreClock variable. Print that value to find out what's the core clock

hi martin ,if i execute the pll program i get 96 Mhz wen systemcoreclock is dispalyed.. i tried changing the clockdiv(CCLKCFG) so as to update(72Mhz) and executed i get junk values wen printed.. can i know wht is der problem with my code....pls help <<code>>

int main() { initclock();

pc.printf("HI\n");

pc.printf("PLL0CON =0x%08X\n",LPC_SC->PLL0CON);

pc.printf("PLL0STAT=0x%08X\n",LPC_SC->PLL0STAT);

pc.printf("PLLCLK =0x%08X\n",LPC_SC->CCLKCFG);

int value=LPC_SC->PLL0STAT&0x7FFF;

pc.printf("value %d\n",value);

SystemCoreClockUpdate();

pc.printf("%d",SystemCoreClock);

} <</code>>

the initclock( function is attached above);
