PLL is used for generating 4Mhz and 8Mhz frequency. It is enabled using the option byte.

e.g. You can select the Internal RC as the source of clock for your application and then enable the x8 PLL option to generate ~8MHz internal clock.

Yes, the PLL is ''phase lock loop''.

No, the PLL should not always be enabled. It needs to be enabled only when you want your Internal clock to be multiplied by 4 or 8.

You should enable the PLL by selecting PLL enabled in the option byte and you should select whichever option you require x4 and x8.
