32.10 Oscillators Characteristics
32.10.1 Crystal Oscillator (XOSC) Characteristics
32.10.1.1 Digital Clock Characteristics
The following table describes the characteristics for the oscillator when a digital clock is applied on XIN.
Table 32-33. Digital Clock Characteristics
32.10.1.2 Crystal Oscillator Characteristics
The following table describes the characteristics for the oscillator when a crystal is connected between XIN and XOUT as
shown in Figure 32-4. The user must choose a crystal oscillator where the crystal load capacitance
C
L
is within the range
given in the table. The exact value of C
L
can be found in the crystal datasheet. The capacitance of the external capacitors
(C
LEXT
) can then be computed as follows:
where C
STRAY
is the capacitance of the pins and PCB, C
SHUNT
is the shunt capacitance of the crystal.
