Note:
1. Note that the 128 kHz oscillator is a very low power clock source, and is not designed for a
high accuracy.
When this clock source is selected, start-up times are determined by the SUT Fuses as shown in
.
Note:
1. If the RSTDISBL fuse is programmed, this start-up time will be increased to
14CK + 4.1 ms to ensure programming mode can be entered.

External Clock
To drive the device from an external clock source, XTAL1 should be driven as shown in
. To run the device on an external clock, the CKSEL Fuses must be programmed
to “0000” (see
Figure 6-4.
External Clock Drive Configuration
When this clock source is selected, start-up times are determined by the SUT Fuses as shown in
.
