5.9 Crystal oscillator
ST7538Q integrates a inverter driver circuit to realize a 16MHz crystal oscillator.
This circuit is able to drive a maximum load capacitance of 16pF with typical quartz ESR of
40Ω.
If the internal driver circuit is used, only one external crystal quartz and two external load
capacitors (C
1
and C
2
) are needed to realize the oscillator function (Figure 18).

If an external oscillator is used, XOUT must be disconnected, while XIN must satisfies the
specifications given in Table 4 (see Figure 19).
