Crystal Oscillator Characteristics

The following table describes the characteristics for the oscillator when a crystal is connected between XIN and XOUT as shown in the figure Oscillator Connection.

Figure 46-3. Oscillator Connection

The user must choose a crystal oscillator where the crystal load capacitance CL is within the range given in the table. The exact value of CL can be found in the crystal data sheet. The capacitance of the external capacitors (CLEXT) can then be computed as follows:

Load Capacitance Equation

CLOAD = ([CXIN + CLEXT] * [CXOUT + CLEXT]) / ([CXIN + CLEXT + CLEXT + CXOUT]) + CSTRAY

Where:

CLOAD = Crystal Mfg. CLOAD specification.

CXIN = XOSC XIN pin data sheet specification.

CXOUT = XOSC XOUT pin data sheet specification.

CLEXT = Required external crystal load capacitor.

CSTRAY (Osc PCB capacitance) = 1.5 pf per 12.5 mm (0.5 inches) (TRACE W = 0.175 mm, H = 36 μm, T = 113 μm).
