2.4 Clock Source
ESP32-S3 has two clock sources:
• External crystal oscillator clock source
• RTC clock source
2.4.1 External Clock Source (compulsory)
Currently, the ESP32-S3 firmware only supports 40 MHz crystal or oscillator.
Crystal
The circuit for the crystal is shown in Figure
. The specific capacitive values of C1 and C4 depend on further
testing of, and adjustment to, the overall performance of the whole circuit. In order to reduce the drive strength of
the crystal and minimize the impact of crystal harmonics on RF performance, a zero-ohm series resistor on the
XTAL_P clock trace is required. Note that the accuracy of the selected crystal should be within ±10 ppm.
