CLOCK GENERATION AND POWER MANAGEMENT
5-4
To examine the parallel resonant frequency, refer to Figure 5-3(c), an equivalent circuit to Figure
5-3(b). The capacitance connected to L
1
is 200 pF in parallel with 20 pF. The equivalent capaci-
tance is still about 200 pF (within 10%) and the equation in Figure 5-4(a) now yields the parallel
resonant frequency.
Figure 5-4. Equations for Crystal Calculations
The equation in Figure 5-4(b) yields the equivalent capacitance C
eq
at the operation frequency.
The desired operation frequency is the third overtone frequency marked on the crystal. Optimiz-
ing equations for the above three criteria yields Table 5-1. This table shows suggested standard
inductor values for various processor frequencies. The equivalent capacitance is about 15 pF.
