16.2 Oscillator Circuit
Clock pulses can be supplied by connecting a crystal resonator, or by input of an external clock
signal.
16.2.1 Connecting a Crystal Resonator
Circuit Configuration: A crystal resonator can be connected as in the example in figure 16-2.
The damping resistance Rd should be selected according to table 16-1. An AT-cut parallel-
resonance crystal should be used.

Crystal Resonator: Figure 16-3 shows an equivalent circuit of the crystal resonator. The crystal
resonator should have the characteristics listed in table 16-2.
