Wrong output of clock rate by PPCTool




Type of Failure:

    The PPCTool program calculates a wrong clock rate for the PPC CPU.

Cause:

    The PPCTool program calculates the clock frequency of the PPC CPU based on a bus clock rate of 50MHz. The board uses a bus clock rate of 66MHz. Therefor the calculated result is only factor .75 of the real clock rate.

Solution:

    The PPCTool program will be corrected with the next update.
