Power is supplied to the PLL by internal regulators that derive power from the off-chip power-supply.
There are total nine Phase Locked Loops (PLLs) in the device:
- MCU_PLL0 (MCU PLL) with WKUP_PLL_CTRL0: The MCU PLL — which is used to drive the switch fabrics, accelerators, and a majority of the peripheral clocks — requires a PLL controller to manage the various clock divisions, gating, and synchronization in WKUP domain and MCU domain.
- MCU_PLL1 (CPSW PLL): The MCU_PLL1, which is used to drive the CPSW.
- PLL0 (MAIN PLL) with PLL_CTRL0: The Main PLL — which is used to drive the switch fabrics, accelerators, and a majority of the peripheral clocks — requires a PLL controller to manage the various clock divisions, gating, and synchronization in MAIN domain.
- PLL1 (PER0 PLL): The PER0 PLL, which is used to drive the Peripherals in MAIN Domain.
- PLL2 (PER1 PLL): The PER1 PLL, which is used to drive the PRU_ICSSG.
- PLL3 (DDR PLL): The DDR PLL is used to drive the DDR PHY for the DDRSS.
- PLL4 (DSS PLL): The DSS PLL, which is used to drive the Display Subsystem.
- PLL6 (ARM0 PLL): The ARM0 PLL, which is used to drive the ARM0.
- PLL7 (ARM1 PLL): The ARM1 PLL, which is used to drive the ARM1.
Most of the Device is driven by the output from the main PLL except the following items:
- Arm subsystem has its own dedicated PLL.
- MCU subsystem has its own dedicated PLL.
- EMIF DDR subsystem has its own dedicated PLL to drive DDR PHY and DDRSS.
- PRU_ICSSG has clocks sourced from several PLLs:
- PER0 PLL to generate UART clock,
- PER1 PLL to generate Core clock,
- MAIN PLL to generate Industrial Ethernet Peripheral clock,
- CPSW PLL to generate Ethernet clocks.
- DSS has its own dedicated PLL, to generate Pixel Clock.
- PCIESS require separate reference clocks to drive SERDES PHYs.

Note: The input reference clock (OSC1_XI/OSC1_XO) are specified and the lock time is ensured by the PLL controller, as documented in the Device Configuration chapter of the device TRM.
