1. A system, comprising:
an oscillator configured to provide a clock signal; and
a controller coupled to the oscillator and configured to:
determine a frequency of the clock signal based on a set of signals, wherein the set of signals comprises a first signal and a second signal, wherein the first signal indicates whether a first circuit requests a first frequency for the clock signal to perform an analog-to-digital conversion, and wherein the second signal indicates whether a second circuit requests to operate in a first mode;
determine the frequency of the clock signal to be the first frequency based on determining that the first signal indicates that the first circuit requests the first frequency for the clock signal to perform the analog-to-digital conversion; and
provide a signal to the oscillator to produce the clock signal at the determined frequency.
