Hundreds of rates between 32 MHz and 64 MHz are +available. A few notable rates are: + +- **64 MHz:** maximum rate of the codec chip +- **61.44 MHz:** good for UMTS/WCDMA applications +- **52 MHz:** good for GSM applications + +\subsection e1x0_mcr_extvcxo Set 61.44MHz - uses external VCXO + +To use the 61.44 MHz clock rate with the USRP-Embedded, two jumpers must +be moved on the device. + +- **J16** is a two pin header; remove the jumper (or leave it on pin1 + only). +- **J15** is a three pin header; move the jumper to (pin1, pin2). + +**Note:** See instructions below to communicate the desired clock rate +to UHD software. + +\subsection e1x0_intvco Set other rates - uses internal VCO + +To use other clock rates, the jumpers will need to be in the default +position. + +- **J16** is a two pin header; move the jumper to (pin1, pin2). +- **J15** is a three pin header; move the jumper to (pin2, pin3). + +To communicate the desired clock rate into UHD software, specify the a +special device address argument, where the key is +`master_clock_rate` and the value is a rate in Hz.
