Crystal Oscillator Characteristics

The following Table describes the characteristics for the oscillator when a crystal is connected between XIN and XOUT.

Figure 15-3. 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 datasheet. The capacitance of the external capacitors (CLEXT) can then be computed as follows:

CLEXT = 2(CL - CSTRAY - SHUNT) ,

where CSTRAY is the capacitance of the pins and the PCB, and CSHUNT is the shunt capacity of the crystal.
