4.4 Other Hardware
4.4.1 Clock Doubler
The RCM3100 takes advantage of the Rabbit 3000 microprocessor’s internal clock dou-
bler. A built-in clock doubler allows half-frequency crystals to be used to reduce radiated
emissions. The 29.4 MHz frequency specified for the RCM3100 is generated using a
14.7456 MHz crystal. The clock doubler will not work for crystals with a frequency
above 26.7264 MHz.
The clock doubler may be disabled if 29.4 MHz clock speeds are not required. Disabling
the Rabbit 3000 microprocessor’s internal clock doubler will reduce power consumption
and further reduce radiated emissions. The clock doubler is disabled with a simple config-
uration macro as shown below.
4.4.2 Spectrum Spreader
The Rabbit 3000 features a spectrum spreader, which helps to mitigate EMI problems. By
default, the spectrum spreader is on automatically, but it may also be turned off or set to a
stronger setting. The means for doing so is through a simple configuration macro as shown
below.
