8.1.4 Loop Clock Configuration
You must tie PxPCLKO[6] to PxPCLKI because this clock always runs and is needed by the
internal PCI PLLs to properly align output signals with the external clocks by removing clock
insertion delay. The PxPCLKO[6] signal does not have to be routed through a bus switch before
returning to PxPCLKI.
NOTES:
1. The clock signal and feedback loops are closely related. Refer to Figure 8-4 for L2 and Figure 8-5 for L
