13.8 External Clock
To drive the device from an external clock source, EXTCLK should be driven as shown in the figure
below. To run the device on an external clock, the CKSEL fuses must be programmed to '0000':

Frequency

CKSEL[3:0]
0 - 20 MHz 0000
Note:
1. If the crystal frequency exceeds the specification of the device (depends on V
CC
), the CKDIV8 Fuse
can be programmed in order to divide the internal frequency by 8. It must be ensured that the
resulting divided clock meets the frequency specification of the device.

When this clock source is selected, start-up times are determined by the SUT fuses:
