4. Notes on H8/38347 and H8/38447
In the H8/38347 and H8/38447 the subclock oscillator input pin is controlled by the EXCL bit in
the PMR2 register. When EXCL is cleared to 0 the X1 pin (resonator connection only) is used,
and when EXCL is set to 1 the EXCL pin (external clock only) is used. Caution is necessary when
switching from the H8/3847R to a program. Writing 1 to bit 7 in PMR2 (empty bit with initial
value 1 on H8/3847R) selects EXCL as the input pin, so no subclock is supplied internally even if
a resonator is connected. Furthermore, P31 becomes unusable. To prevent this it is necessary to
change the program so that 0 is written to the EXCL bit.
