Note:
  1. In this table, VIT- refers to the negative-going input threshold voltage of the VBAT POR (see Table 11-48). Operation of the device backup section is granted down to the VBAT POR VIT- threshold.

  3. RS is the crystal’s equivalent series resistor.

CLEXT32K = 2x(CCRYSTAL – CPARA32K – CPCB / 2)

where CPCB is the single-ended (ground-referenced) parasitic capacitance of the printed circuit board (PCB) on XIN32 and XOUT32 tracks. As an example, if the crystal is specified for a 12.5 pF load, with CPCB = 1 pF (on XIN32 and on XOUT32), CLEXT32K = 2 x (12.5 - 2 - 0.5) = 20 pF.
