The USB can be clocked from the system clock (controlled in USB_CTRL), 
so a 4MHz input multiplied up to 48MHz is possible. Ensure that the 
source is 2500ppm accurate to achieve the required precision for full 
speed USB. I think that the only disadvantage of this is that the system 
clock can not be used at maximum speed (up to 80MHz otherwise depending 
on the exact device used).
By clocking directly from the crystal a 48MHz crystal is needed, but 
this then doesn't restrict the PLL speed - it could also be reduced to 
save power in this case.
