Crystal Oscillator

XTAL1 and XTAL2 are input and output, respectively, of an inverting amplifier which can

be configured for use as an On-chip Oscillator, as shown in Figure 12. Either a quartz

crystal or a ceramic resonator may be used.

C1 and C2 should always be equal for both crystals and resonators. The optimal value

of the capacitors depends on the crystal or resonator in use, the amount of stray capac-

itance, and the electromagnetic noise of the environment. Some initial guidelines for

choosing capacitors for use with crystals are given in Table 4. For ceramic resonators,

the capacitor values given by the manufacturer should be used.

Figure 12. Crystal Oscillator Connections

The Oscillator can operate in three different modes, each optimized for a specific fre-

quency range. The operating mode is selected by the fuses CKSEL3..1 as shown in

Table 4.

Notes:

1. This option should not be used with crystals, only with ceramic resonators.

The CKSEL0 Fuse together with the SUT1..0 Fuses select the start-up times as shown

in Table 5.
