Power Disable Control register provides control bits that can enable or disable arrival of clock to several peripherals such as, PCM, CPCC, digital filters, front ends, DPWMs, UARTs, ADC-12 and more.
All these controls are enabled as default. If a specific peripheral is not used in a specific application the clock gate can be disabled in order to block the propagation of clock signal to that peripheral and therefore reduce the overall current consumption of the device. Please refer to Section 9.9.7 and Section 3.7 of UCD3138 device datasheet for more information.
