Section 4 Clock Pulse Generators
4.2
System Clock Generator
Clock pulses can be supplied to the system clock divider either by connecting a crystal or ceramic
oscillator, or by providing external clock input.
1. Connecting a Crystal Oscillator
Figure 4.2 shows a typical method of connecting a crystal oscillator. For information on
recommended resonators, see the product AC characteristics listed in section 15, Electrical
Characteristics. Please consult with the resonator manufacturer when selecting a resonator model.

2. Connecting a Ceramic Oscillator
Figure 4.3 shows a typical method of connecting a ceramic oscillator. For information on
recommended resonators, see the product AC characteristics listed in section 15, Electrical
Characteristics. Please consult with the resonator manufacturer when selecting a resonator model.

3. Notes on Board Design
When generating clock pulses by connecting a crystal or ceramic oscillator, pay careful attention
to the following points.
