This oscillator is labeled `Y2` on the circuit board and has text printed on the top which looks like a curved M in a box followed by `4.00` and then a single-character serial such as `L` or `J`. It is a surface-mount component.

Disabling this oscillator when not needed can save power. You can also adjust the speed this runs at by writing to register VD1C according to the following table:

| VD1C1 | VD1C0 | Operating voltage | Oscillation |

|:-----:|:-----:| ----------------- | ------------------ |

| 0 | 0 | 2.4 V | 0.03~4.4 MHz |

When switching voltages you cannot jump directly between 1.6 V and 3.2 V safely and you must wait some time after switching. See the VD1C register details for usage information. Note that the BIOS will switch between 1.6 V and 2.4 V during some operations.

Disabling this oscillator when not needed can save power. To turn it off call `int [74h]` and to turn it back on call `int [39h]`.

In previous documentation and code, this oscillator was once known in the community as "oscillator 1".
