Details:

When using the Arm^® Cortex^® SysTick timer, the TENMS register field (CPU_SCS.STCR.TENMS) will always shows the value corresponding to a 48 MHz CPU clock, regardless of the CPU division factor.

Workarounds:

One of the following two workarounds must be implemented:

Workaround 1: Do not use a divided down system CPU clock. In general, power savings are maximized by completing a task at full clock speed and then stopping the system CPU entirely after the task is complete.

Workaround 2: Read the system CPU division factor from the PRCM.CPUCLKDIV.RATIO register and compensate the TENMS field in software based on this value.

TI-provided drivers do not offer any functionality to divide the system CPU clock.
