 What is the max PDM frequency I can set? Is the clock limited to these options?

&lt;p&gt;- 16 kHz output sample rate, 16-bit samples&lt;br /&gt;- Selectable ratio of 64 or 80 between PDM_CLK and output sample rate&lt;br /&gt;-&amp;nbsp;&lt;img style="max-height:240px;max-width:320px;" src="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/4/pastedimage1744060067149v1.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For the nRF54L15 it looks to be more values supported, but you can assume the same: We have only tested and qualified specific listed values, hence we can&amp;#39;t recommend other values (&lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ps_nrf54L15/page/pdm.html"&gt;https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ps_nrf54L15/page/pdm.html&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;- 8 kHz, 16 kHz, 32 kHz, or 48k Hz output sample rate, 16-bit samples&lt;br /&gt;- Supports digital microphone clocks at 768 kHz, 800 kHz, 1. 024 MHz , 1.536 MHz, 2.048 MHz , 3.072 MHz , 1.28 MHz, and 2.56 MHz&lt;br /&gt;- Selectable ratio of 32, 48, 50, 64, 80, 96, 100, or 128 between PDM_CLK and output sample rate&lt;/p&gt;
