The various choices for each clocking option is given in the following sections. When the CPU

wakes up from Power-down or Power-save, the selected clock source is used to time the start-

up, ensuring stable Oscillator operation before instruction execution starts. When the CPU starts

from reset, there is as an additional delay allowing the power to reach a stable level before com-

mencing normal operation. The Watchdog Oscillator is used for timing this real-time part of the

start-up time. The number of WDT Oscillator cycles used for each time-out is shown in Table 7.

The frequency of the Watchdog Oscillator is voltage dependent as shown in the “Typical Char-

acteristics” on page 333.

Default Clock

Source

The device is shipped with CKSEL = “0001” and SUT = “10”. The default clock source setting is

therefore the Internal RC Oscillator with longest startup time. This default setting ensures that all

users can make their desired clock source setting using an In-System or Parallel Programmer.
