 I am working with the nRF52840 microcontroller and I would like to know how to check the output clock frequency of the controller like any &amp;quot;Clock_OUT&amp;quot; pin present or can any GPIO&amp;#39;s can be taken in consideration.

&lt;p&gt;There is no clock output pin. The closest you can get is to connect a TIMER to GPIOTE via PPI to toggle a pin at 8 MHz as shown in &lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/55428/nrf52840-16-mhz-clock-out-on-gpio-pin/224864"&gt;this thread&lt;/a&gt;. Even though the frequency is lower this is based on the same 64 MHz oscillator as all the other peripherals that use a high frequency clock, and the CPU.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are two high frequency clock sources, HFINT (which is used by default), and HFXO which is started as needed. The example in the thread I linked to starts the HFXO, but if you want to test with HFINT, you can comment out line 32-33.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
