Returns current PLL mode of the device |
Type: |
Enum (no_yes, byte) |
Value Range: |
0- NO: PLL is off, the device runs at low speed with reduced power consumption. 1- YES: PLL is on, the device runs at maximum speed, x8 faster than low speed. |

Details
After the external reset the device typically boots with PLL on. You can switch PLL off and on programmatically by using the sys.newpll method and then "self-resetting" the device using the sys.reboot method.
Actual PLL mode change only takes place after you "self-reset" the device using sys.reboot method or the device self-resets due to some other reason (for instance, there is a self reset after a new BASIC application upload, or when you hit "restart" button in TIDE). External resets- power-up and RST pin reset (reset button reset)- set the PLL to default state (typically ON). On some devices there is a hardware jumper that defines the post-external reset state of the PLL.
Not all Tibbo devices have PLL- check "Platform-dependent Programming Information" topic inside your platform specifications section to find out if there is a PLL on your platform.
